I absolutely loved how certain characters had their own distinct musical sound - and this was maintained throughout the entire series. ie. I'll always recognise the theme for Toad, Adder, Mole and so forth
Always wanted a high-quality upload of the threat/danger/suspense music from these series - was so haunting - the likes of when Vixen approaches Scarface and Lady Blue in Winter, or Scarface is chasing Adder down the hole, or Adder is stalking Scarface through the water as he drinks. It's so sinister but very well composed.
Is that the same as from the infamous Highway scene? Always loved that one but it's sadly mixed so quiet compared to everything else going on in the scene.
@@MKtheinstrumentalist Couldn't tell you from memory alone - but it plays from about 5 seconds into this scene (until about a minute in) just after Hare says "excuuuse me, but what ARE we going to do about Scarface?" - ruclips.net/video/cVv-WkdLU_4/видео.html - if that's of any help. There's a slight wobble in the audio due to the uploader having gotten this from an old VHS but you'll know the music right away and it's the easiest example I could think of that I could find quickly ^_^
Think it's in second episode of season two love that scene ends with lady blue saying no one can better scarface to which vixen replys not even you.. brilliant
I was actually about to link this to you, funny you beat me to it! ;-) I loved this show when I was young, but it wasn't until last week I found out there was a second - and even third - series! I'm planning on spending christmas holiday watching them all. XD
So much nostalgia!!!! what makes it even better this is finally getting released in the UK on DVD October 3rd!!!!!!!!! can't wait!!!!!!! What doesn't make sense as it is a UK original, oh well I'm just glad it is coming out!!!!
Watching Mr. Pheasant see his wife roasted in the window upset me massively as a kid. As an adult rewatching it, I laughed my tits off at that scene! What a fucked up cartoon, it's turned me into a psycho!
Thank you for creating and uploading this. AOFW, along with Tugs and TTTE were staples of my childhood in the 1990's, and all had such brilliant musical scores to them!
I don't _think_ any sheet music exists - at least not publically - but I _might_ be able to make some - it'd take a while though. Your best bet in the meantime would be to try and track down the composers and see if they made any - if they did make copies they'd probably be left over from the single performance by the WDR Orchestra in Berlin, but to my knowledge that would only be of the last "movement" from 4:18 onwards as that was the only part played live. I agree though, it's a _beautiful_ suite.
Thank you for getting back to me. It is very kind of you to offer to make the sheet music - how long would it take you if it's something you could do? Our wedding is 20th May. It would be so special to have the music if at all possible. I will contact the composer - do you know the best way to go about this? Thank you so much for your help.
I might be able to arrange something, but I'm not that experienced with writing for strings - I'm a pianist so I'm not familiar with their notation. There's admittedly not much to find about the composer Dennis Cooper either, in way of contact. All I've found is a photo. :-P If I can't get the sheet music satisfactory, would you be able to play the suite above via speakers? I know it wouldn't quite be the same as a live quartet, but in my opinion an original recording is better than a poorly written cover...
Haha - that's about as far as I got in my detective work. We do have a pianist as well. Music for him may well be enough if writing for strings is too tricky. We would appreciate anything you could do, but no pressue :)
Sorry - I've only just noticed second paragraph about the speakers. We will think about that option but it would be a shame as we have some amazing muscians who would do a fantastic job if they had the sheet music. I'm realising now what a tall order that is though!
Some of the Greatest music 🎶 ever produced.. 👏🏻 👏🏻 Beautiful childhood memories live on forever.. 👍🏻 These songs would be one of my choices for my funeral ..👍🏻 Peace ✌🏻.. Amigos.. 😎 ☀️🌕🐺😸🦊👍🏻..
I am in possession of an official mix of this from the BBC children's theme tunes tape, along with an extended version of the Noddy, Pingu and Joshua Jones theme. The version of AOFW on the tape is the opening credits merged with the end credits, but it's in glorious stereo, along with all the others, I can send it to you if you want
I love this show a lot. I stumbled across the show like 2 months ago in November 2016. The music is so beautiful I could listen to it all day. My favorite characters are mostly Fox and Badger. I also like the squirrels, Mole, Toad, Vixen and others. I do cry at some of the scenes doh, mostly the deaths. IDK if the original series aired on any of the US channels. But there was an american direct that had cut out scenes that were put into a movie. Fox, Adder, and Weasel got re dubbed. Fox sounds...ok I guess but Weasel and Adder's dubs sound terrible. There are also bland musical numbers in the american version that are annoying to listen too. sigh...At least I can watch the original British version online. It would be cool if the series was on Netflix or Hulu.
You know, you're rediscovering classics the same way I am, next thing you know you'll be into the Magic Roundabout or Charlie chalk or Noddy or even Oakie Doke (which thank goodness is on DVD), I don't know if AoFW is on DVD here, but I know there is a lot of German DVDs of it which have the English version on there, I recommend you watch it, I also have the VHS with the "Adventures of Fox" clip compilation on it!
You'll have a hard time doing that - these cues were not sourced from the episodes themselves! - but you can still track down when they were actually used there, I know that the second bit (with Whistler's theremin sting) was used a fair few times.
The DVD was already released years ago - it's from Germany though, but all the english dubs are on there. Failing that, youtube user Ermgle has EVERY episode on his channel, including the elusive series three. ;-)
MKtheinstrumentalist Ah, that's still very cool. One of the reasons I started playing horn is because I loved this bit of music so much. So perhaps with some adaptation I can play it on horn with piano accompaniment. :-)
Alright, here are the links - One thing I ought to mention was that I accidentally transcribed it in the wrong key - it's tonally identical to the original but written with accidentals as if it were in C-major, which it isn't.

For all the things this show is remembered today, we don't talk enough how great it's score was and still is.
I wish this shows soundtrack was released, it just had so many wonderful, whimsical and adventurous pieces! Very fitting for a show of it's nature
I've been wanting this for years!
@@kazer4 Same.
Just to hear the "sad" theme for Pheasant and the Hedgehog's death scenes.
I loved this when I was a kid.. Im 30 years old now... I miss childhood
You’re 37 now. How’s life treating you?
I absolutely loved how certain characters had their own distinct musical sound - and this was maintained throughout the entire series. ie. I'll always recognise the theme for Toad, Adder, Mole and so forth
Don't forget Whistler! You can hear a bit of his at 0:44, actually.

This whole video just oozes of British 90s TV and the rural landscape of the UK. The best combination you can get.
I haven't heard this since I was a little nipper. Gorgeous music and such a sad but yet lovely series!
I was actually about to link this to you, funny you beat me to it! ;-) I loved this show when I was young, but it wasn't until last week I found out there was a second - and even third - series! I'm planning on spending christmas holiday watching them all. XD
Can you hear the Proteus in this? ;-D Weird how it seems to have much more power than it ever did in TTTE. :-P
This show + Moomin, Alfred J. Kwak, Studio Ghibli movies & The Disney Afternoon were my childhood!! ;)
Yess you are truly cultured😂
This show Reminds me of Watership Down.
So much nostalgia!!!! what makes it even better this is finally getting released in the UK on DVD October 3rd!!!!!!!!! can't wait!!!!!!!
What doesn't make sense as it is a UK original, oh well I'm just glad it is coming out!!!!
Really? Oooh, thanks for telling me, I'll have to look out for that myself! ;-D
Aah yes. This show had some seriously sick sh#t in it.
The mouse babies, the pheasant couple.. X_X
Watching Mr. Pheasant see his wife roasted in the window upset me massively as a kid. As an adult rewatching it, I laughed my tits off at that scene! What a fucked up cartoon, it's turned me into a psycho!
It turned me vegetarian and taught me to respect nature
Cookie Nice to hear, best of luck going through the door completely :)
I respect nature, and love animals, but I refuse to be a vegetarian. It simply doesn't suit for me.
Dont forget the hedgehogs under the wheels of the car on the motorway. That totally fucked me up for years.
The perfect ending to the Biggest BBC Childrens Video Ever VHS
There was a lot of great music from this series. Have to say the editing of certain part was done seamlessly well done.
Magnificent! Now I remember this thing...I loved Animals of Farthing Wood. Although I can't remember which version I'm actually remembering.
Thank you for your dedication to getting this beauty together :)
+DakNJaxter Thank you!
This theme sums up my childhood. Thank you for bringing back good memories :)
+FlyingUnicorn Pleasure! :-)
Such beautifull music, so full of feelings and drama, also good editing job!
OMG just came across this gem... used to love the show when I was a little kiddo. Thanks for uploading
This really brings me memories back.
This video deserve more views and likes
I feel the same way about my cock.
Oi, that made me chuckle, but I normally like things PG-13 and under around here...
Truly a gem in its own right. 4:18 and 2:45
Thank you for creating and uploading this.
AOFW, along with Tugs and TTTE were staples of my childhood in the 1990's, and all had such brilliant musical scores to them!
I wish I had grown up with these shows.
One of the greatest tv series of all time. Well, seasons 1 and 2 at least.
Oh this is awesome. Really really fantastic work. I love this music. :)
Wow I've seen every single episode of this and the music oh so beautiful
Does anyone know where I can get the sheet music? We want this played by a string quartet at our wedding! Absolutely love this programme

This is the animal version of GoT
Thank you a million times for posting this :)
hope this show comes back :)

sainsbury's new rule aka the rule they made up themselves.
@Nathan Bernacki unless it goes on adult swim the show might be able to get away for its violence on there.
@Nathan Bernacki it did show cartoons like robot chicken that got away with cussing and other things so it might work.
Bbc should do an animals of farthing wood netflix seriee

Thanks mate, I owe you one! ;-)
That's an extremely rare item you have there. Definitely something to share with the world, man. :)

Let's just pretend season 3 didn't happen. Lol
I think I'll cry...
Just precious, any chance I can enjoy this on my iPod?

incredible
What I'd give to have this remade. 2022 version
Except they'd make it all modern and remove the edginess the original has.
beautiful
Still waiting for the soundtrack...
Same, amigo...
Algum brasileiro relembrando desse clássico.
Very nice desenho inesquecível trilha sonora fantástica.
I know I'm a little late, but Merry Christmas anyways!!
So some of these are ripped from specific scenes from the series. Extra points if can pinpoint them.
You'll have a hard time doing that - these cues were not sourced from the episodes themselves! - but you can still track down when they were actually used there, I know that the second bit (with Whistler's theremin sting) was used a fair few times.
MKtheinstrumentalist yes that part seemed very specific! The dvd is being released soon so might get the opportunity to find out!
The DVD was already released years ago - it's from Germany though, but all the english dubs are on there. Failing that, youtube user Ermgle has EVERY episode on his channel, including the elusive series three. ;-)
Anyone know if there's sheet music for this anywhere? (Especially of the first 42 seconds.)
You, my friend, are in luck! I was asked to transcribe it for a wedding a few years ago - give me a bit and I'll try and find the copy I sent off.
Hero! ^_^
I'll warn you, I had it arranged for piano solo but in my zeal to make it accurate I made it really, _really_ hard to play lmao
MKtheinstrumentalist Ah, that's still very cool. One of the reasons I started playing horn is because I loved this bit of music so much. So perhaps with some adaptation I can play it on horn with piano accompaniment. :-)
Alright, here are the links - One thing I ought to mention was that I accidentally transcribed it in the wrong key - it's tonally identical to the original but written with accidentals as if it were in C-major, which it isn't. XD

Gotta say, this show doesn't seem to be my cup of tea (Probably because of the fact of destroying nature), but I love the soundtrack...

This was SO good! Can you pls make more of these?
@MKtheinstrumentalist
***** Sure, try convert2mp3.net/en/ ;-)
And also, is the theme synth instrumental, or real instrumentation?
... Technically? Both. Read the end of my video description. ;-)
wow, I really miss those days
