                             PANORAMA ANNUAL REPORT
                          ---------------------------
                               1995 ANNUAL REPORT
DEAR PANORAMA CONTRACT HOLDER:
     The stock and bond markets both turned in impressive performances last
year, making 1995 a banner year for investors. It was a year in which the Dow
Jones Industrial Average exceeded 5200 and the yield on the 30 year Treasury
bond dropped by almost 200 basis points.
     What went right for the markets in 1995? Just about everything that
mattered.
     We entered the year with a strong economy. The Central Bank, in a
tightening mode, had been increasing interest rates to head off inflation. The
November elections brought victory for the Republicans in Congress, signaling a
better political time for markets.
     As expected, the increasing interest rates of 1994 and early 1995 put the
brakes on the economy, slowing it sufficiently to avoid higher inflation, but
not enough to cause a recession. The Fed began to ease its grip on interest
rates, the dollar gathered strength, and inflation remained low -- setting a
positive tone for both the bond and stock markets.
     At the same time, corporate earnings grew vigorously and the federal
government continued moving toward greater fiscal responsibility -- contributing
to a superlative year for the stock market.
     Because our portfolio managers were anticipating this type of environment,
Panorama investors were able to capitalize on market trends. All of the Panorama
Accounts were well up in the top half of their respective categories.
     The Panorama Money Market Account, as with all money market funds,
responded to lower inflation and lower interest rates with modest returns. The
Panorama Money Market Account was up 4.79 percent for the twelve months ended
December 31, 1995, better than the category average of 4.34 percent, according
to Morningstar.
     The Panorama Income Account was up 17.68 percent, compared with the
category average increase of 16.44 percent, for the twelve months ended December
31, 1995, according to Morningstar. The account was well-positioned for the
decreasing interest rate environment and held maturities that were a little
longer than the average bond fund.
     According to Morningstar, the Panorama Total Return Account, with a mix of
stocks, bonds and cash, ended the twelve months with a 23.64 percent increase.
The Account's strict asset allocation discipline, along with its good stock
selection, helped it outperform the category average of 22.17 percent.
     The Panorama Growth Account boasted a 36.58 percent gain in the twelve
months ended December 31, 1995, according to Morningstar, compared to the
category average increase of 31.10 percent.
     We are certainly pleased with Panorama's performance throughout 1995, and
we will continue to monitor economic and market conditions to help maintain
Panorama's position as a top-performing variable annuity.
     You will likely find that the expertise of our investment professionals is
even more valuable as we grapple with the federal budget battle and anticipate
the Presidential elections in the months ahead.
 
ECONOMIC FORECAST: FIRST AND SECOND QUARTERS 1996
    A look ahead at 1996 shows a continuation of 1995, with low inflation, a
slow economy and continued reductions in interest rates by the Fed. This
scenario -- combined with a strong dollar and decreasing rates overseas --
provides a favorable backdrop for the bond market, although most of the rally
seems to be behind us.
     A strong bond market and low interest rates should fuel more growth in the
stock market. That growth could, however, be dampened by lackluster corporate
earnings, could introduce downward pressure on the market and create volatility.
     Our investment managers also are keeping a close eye on Washington.
Although the current battle over the federal budget appears to represent another
step in the march toward fiscal responsibility, it could also create short-term
volatility in the markets. The presidential election in November bears watching,
as well.
     Overall, the fundamentals remain positive: a slowing (but still growing)
economy, little inflation, improving prospects of a balanced federal budget and
falling short-term interest rates. Unless these dynamics change, we look forward
to another strong year in the financial markets.
 
SUMMARY
    For most investors, the current bull market is a dream come true. But,
anyone who has watched the market over time knows that circumstances can change
quickly and double-digit returns can easily dwindle.
     Successful investors expect those ups and downs and ride them out --
because they know that, in the long run, the stock market has provided financial
rewards. That's why we, too, stick to a tried and true investment discipline
designed to work in good times and in bad, over time.
     On the whole, we are pleased with the results of Panorama for 1995 and we
hope you share our enthusiasm and optimism for the coming year. If you want to
know more about Panorama and the options available to you, talk to your
registered representative or call 1-800-234-5606, and press 1, to find out more.

PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE AND IS NOT AN INDICATION OF
                                FUTURE RETURNS.
  THE INVESTMENT RETURN AND PRINCIPAL VALUE OF AN INVESTMENT WILL FLUCTUATE SO
                           THAT AN INVESTOR'S SHARES,
     WHEN REDEEMED, MAY BE WORTH MORE OR LESS THAN THE ORIGINAL INVESTMENT.
 
 1. All  returns take into  consideration all ongoing  investment, mortality and
    expense charges pertaining to Panorama Separate Account contracts as well as
    the annual maintenance charge paid from each contract. Total return  figures
    include reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains.
 2. The  "standard" returns assume the contract is surrendered at the end of the
    calculation period and incurs a 5%, 4% or 0% surrender charge, depending  on
    the  length of  time invested.  For the  10 year  calculation, the surrender
    charge is 0%.
 3. The  "non-standard"  returns assume  the  contract  is still  in  force  and
    therefore do not take into consideration the surrender charge.
 4. Inception was  January 21,  1982 except  for the  Total Return Sub-Account,
    which began on September 30, 1982.
 5. Amounts allocated to the Money Market Sub-Account are invested in the Money
    Market Portfolio of Series Fund I. AN INVESTMENT IN THE MONEY MARKET
    PORTFOLIO IS NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT AND THERE
    CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO WILL BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN
    A STABLE NET ASSET VALUE OF $1.00 PER SHARE.

 1. ORGANIZATION
  The Panorama Separate Account (the Account) is a separate account within
  Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company (Connecticut Mutual). Although the
  Account is an integral part of Connecticut Mutual, it is registered as a
  unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
  The assets attributable to contracts participating in the Account are held
  for the benefit of the participants and are not chargeable with liabilities
  arising out of any other business that Connecticut Mutual may conduct. Each
  purchase payment is allocated to one or more sub-accounts of the Account.
  The Account is invested exclusively in portfolios of Connecticut Mutual
  Financial Services Series Fund I, Inc. (the Fund). Separate sub-accounts
  have been established for tax-qualified and non tax-qualified assets for
  each portfolio. Net purchase payments and transfers between sub-accounts are
  applied to purchase Fund shares in the appropriate portfolio at the net
  asset value determined as of the end of the valuation period during which
  the payments were received or the transfers made.
 
  2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  (a)FUND SHARE TRANSACTIONS - Fund share transactions are recorded on the trade
     date. The cost of Fund shares sold is determined on the basis of identified
     cost.
 
  (b)VALUATION OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES - The investments in shares of the Fund
     are valued at their closing net asset value per share as determined for the
     appropriate portfolio of the Fund on December 31, 1995. Valuation of
     securities by the Fund is discussed in Note 1 of the Fund's Notes to
     Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report.
 
  (c)FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - The operations of the Account form a part of the
     total operations of Connecticut Mutual and are not taxed separately.
     Connecticut Mutual is taxed as a life insurance company under the life
     insurance tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
     The Account will not be taxed as a regulated investment company under
     Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for
     income taxes has been required in the accompanying financial statements.
 
  3. CONTRACT CHARGES
  For  assuming mortality  and expense risks,  Connecticut Mutual  makes a daily
  charge equal to .002% (.73% on an annual basis) of the value of the  Account's
  assets.  A deduction of $40 per contract is made annually to cover the expense
  of administering the Account.
 
  4. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
  On September 8, 1995,  the Board of Directors  of Connecticut Mutual  approved
  the  merger  of Connecticut  Mutual  and Massachusetts  Mutual  Life Insurance
  Company. Thereafter, a definitive agreement  was signed by both companies.  On
  January   27,   1996,  Connecticut   Mutual   and  its   insurance  subsidiary
  policyholders and  other  insureds and  annuitants  approved the  merger.  The
  merger  was subsequently reviewed  by the insurance  regulatory authorities in
  Connecticut and Massachusetts and approved. It is anticipated that the  merger
  will be effective on March 1, 1996.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
   To Panorama Separate Account of Connecticut Mutual
           Life Insurance Company and to the Owners of Units
           of Interest Therein:
 
   We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Panorama
   Separate Account of Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company as of
   December 31, 1995, and the related statement of operations for the year
   then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the
   two years in the period then ended. These financial statements are the
   responsibility of the Account's management. Our responsibility is to
   express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
   standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
   obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
   free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
   basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
   statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
   used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
   the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
   provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
   In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
   in all material respects, the financial position of Panorama Separate
   Account of Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company as of December 31,
   1995, the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the
   changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then
   ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
