Rio,
My guess is about 1965....Although Burt was Bi-coastal.. maintaining an apartment in Manhattan for many years
after that...But I think he made the move when he started to do movie work,(What's New Pussycat) and of course marrying Angie Dickinson....since she
was doing acting all the time...their desire to be near each other...
Actually, a lot of music arrangers from New York made the exodus to the west coast around this time(approximate)..Don Costa, Sid Feller, Ray Conniff....Percy Faith etc...

Thanks Steveo_1965 (did you say around 1965?!) and Enormous.

The version on Youtube seems to try to follow Burt's arrangement.

I hope the link below will allow you to enjoy a better version conducted by the arranger himself.
