Tony Mottola was a guitarist and composer who became a regular accompanist for Frank Sinatra.
In 1951 Mottola became the musical director for the CBS drama series Danger, which was directed initially by Yul Brynner and then Sidney Lumet, and showcased such young, unknown actors as James Dean, Sal Mineo and Rod Steiger. The theme music featured a single, repeated note interrupted by a dramatic chord. To the public, it was "the Danger chord": within the industry, it was "the Tony Mottola chord". Mottola only had three days to write the music for each episode, which would be played live.
