[Stingrayz]

Heya folks

Hey i have a really stupid question.. but I was looking for the title of the Composition that movies and other people play when they attack or something.. like the vikings or something

it goes like " da dada daaa da, da dada daaa da, da da daaaa da da ddaaa"

Im sorry thats the best i can do.. dont hurt me !

"walkürenritt" by wagner, i think

(you mean the one from "apocalypse now", at the helicopter-attack on the beach?)

[Stingrayz]

I dont think i saw that movie.. but yeah most likely it is because its usually used in those situations..

Thanks !

What the crap?

First they invented tabs-
now all you need is da dada daaa da.

[SteveC]

It is Wagner. It is in 3/4 time with a pickup note:

daa | da dada daa daa | da dada daa daa | da dada daa daa | da dada daaa |

I much prefer da da over TAB.

[Ed Fuqua]

Look, trumpet tab!

I think they're right, Wagner. Check out track #5 here:

Ride Of The Valkyries indeed, from the opera Die Walkure.

[Bruce Lindfield]

MARS from Holst's Planets is often used as well - God of War !!

Die Walküre isn't actually an opera; it's a Music Drama (Wagner's own description); strictly speaking, to be an opera, the piece needs to have a chorus, and anyone familiar with The Ring Cycle will tell you that the only opera in that work is Götterdämmerung, and the first time the chorus sings is at the start of Act II, Scene 3 where Hagen summons The Vassals in a rousing chorus; so by this time, the audience will have sat through about 12 hours of Wagner where the only music has been solo voices and orchestra, no chorus at all up until then…
