What a terrific performance of an outstanding tune from my childhood. I’d love to have seen this in the front row there. It seems very faithful to the original.
I was a very little child when i saw this series for the first time, but the soundtrack had stayed in my memory ! Now, i watch it in dvd, and it is a real pleasure. Thanks a lot.
It was good because i couldn't do it and people have to learn. But it wasnt flawless. Loads of mistakes. Xylophone hit worng nores and was outta time and too loud. The drummers timing of the hi hats went out, and the trumptswere too loud and hit wrong notes. At 2:02 1 the trumpeters even trys to cover up his mistake by turning it around as if theres something wrong with it. Ive listen to the original many a time and have amazing ear for detail. Still decent though
You are quite welcome. Your country has made countless contributions to world culture, although we British are blessed when it comes to music it seems :)
I am enjoying watching the TV series of some shows I loved back then. I well remember this series. Kid’s shows back then had such unforgettable theme music to them. I started with DVDs of Robinson Crusoe starring Robert Hoffmann, then I got Tom Grattan’s War and The Flaxton Boys and the TV series of The Railway Children. I’m currently waiting on Follyfoot DVDs coming. I also have The white Horses but it’s in German. Now that was an unforgettable theme tune. The Black Beauty series should be back on TV. My goodness, weren’t we spoiled having such great programmes! Now, what I really want is a time machine😁.
👏👏👏 only ever heard the original recording, first time I've heard and seen an actual performance...the moment i heard the kettle drums i was gone....so moving!!
I searched for Black Beauty theme live and was pleasantly surprised that you were top of the list.. I didn't know it was called 'Galloping Home'. Putting Black Beauty in the title would have got you so many more well-deserved views.
Rollicking music, pounding timpani and swingle-esque vocals, provide an iconic soundtrack for a whole generation. ‘Galloping Home’ the theme for the TV series #BlackBeauty, rightly won composer Denis king an Ivor Novello Award.
Sorry gotta ask in the right hand corner of the video there seem to be to people sitting in the one seat am I imagining this.Sorry to detract from the sublime orchestral manouvres but its niggling.
Whilst its good i do personally feel the sound recording is off. You can hardly hear the 2 big drum things , (sorry not a musician dont know what they are called) that are such a big part of the piece. .
Were you all in a rush to get home again? Why play it faster than the original? It's lost the original graceful flowing movements of the horse..... Sorry...thumbs down.
Just AWESOME!! This beautiful theme makes me cry, every single time❤❤🥲🥲❤❤
I watched the show in Kenya around 1971-1972. I still love the soundtrack since then.
Still thrilling after 50 years❤❤❤
Brings back happy days from childhood and that's a while back now.

Arguably one of the best TV theme tunes. For those of us over a certain age, it evokes childhood memories and brings on many a tear.
Beautiful ❤️
It is the best! Hands down :)
Such a flawless brilliant performance. This should have far more views than it has. Anorher one of those classic TV theme tunes

Hi from Paris. This series was a huge success back in the 70s in France, thanks for that, dear Brit friends ;-)
You are quite welcome. Your country has made countless contributions to world culture, although we British are blessed when it comes to music it seems :)

Thanks for sharing 😉
Excellent performance 👏🏾 loved watching Black beauty. Deserve more likes.
Absolutely stunningly Brill, just like I remember it ...🙏🙏🙏🙏
It is obvious this fantastic performance was conducted in the absence of audience. That's a bummer because it was excellent.
There’s an audience - just not in the front rows. Watch to the end and there’s lots of applause!
You deserve 000's more views and likes for such a wonderful performance
Just brilliant! 😊👏🏻

Television is becoming a victim of its nasty self.🙏🙏😄👍🇬🇧

Not the same without the "do-dos" and "ahs" from the choir..
this tune is weird
0.41 - wonderful performance, hideous recording; can't listen
