I have just heard this tune on Daybreaks.

Tales of the Unexpected



Ref: Wikipedia
Tales Of The Unexpected is a British television series originally aired between 1979 and 1988.Initially episodes were based on the short stories by Roald Dahl. The stories were sometimes sinister, sometimes wryly comedic, and usually had a twist ending.
The upbeat theme music for the series was written by the prolific film and television composer Ron Grainer.

I will listen to this tomorrow.

This is such a beautiful song :)

That sounds like a very vintage recording. It almost sounds as if it's being played on an Edison Cylinder. The energy isn't lost though.

I don't know if any of you like classical or piano music, but this is an amazing composition :)

Yes originally this is a very old music.

I just remembered when I was at kindergarten, the record player was not electric, and a teacher (nursery nurse?) had to wind handle constantly so that music would not go slow down also she had to change a record needle often as well.:shocked:



Extract from the above dvd comment.
This is running too fast for shure. Also the steel needle has to be changed after every play or it can cause serious record damage. Newer record players use a diamond tiped needle so they will not wear out after just one play. Never try to play anything but 78's on this machine. If you try to play vinyl records on this the steel needle with damage the record.

BB_Eye is expert on classical music.
If they have to be classic, normally I listen to popular classic, but since this thread, it is a great opportunity to listen to others.
Basically I like dance music, from disco to foxtrot.:blush:

I prefer this one.


Please visit here now and again, nobody may not comment your video, but it does not matter.

I enjoyed this very much.

See you tomorrow.:blush:

That is unusual. I bet some of the kids might have thought it was a toy. I feel for the nurse who must have had a very boring mundane job if she had to keep this music going everyday.

I remember in the 1990's, local radio stations would play records at a much higher tempi than normal (possibly in a higher key also). I guess they must have been using a record player with adjustable speeds. Stuff like that can really ruin a song

Extremely minimal. Not my cup of tea, but I can see the appeal. Do you like Arvo Pärt? He's quite melodic for a contemporary composer imo.
