Writing Music: This is Gallifrey

19:00

As anyone who has ever watched Dr Who has probably figured out by now, this week’s writing music comes from the awesome soundtrack of the TV series, Dr Who. There are so many amazing pieces of music from this show, from the ever famous theme, to the many, many songs specific to each episode. It’s hard to choose just one to share, but I finally decided on This Is Gallifrey, Our Childhood, Our Home.

This is a strong, positive piece. It has an undercurrent of tension and a sense of forward motion. At points, there is an almost triumphant feeling to it. It feels like a climax, the turning of the tide. It would work well for a sci-fi, a fantasy, or a dystopian, but it would work well for any kind of book with action scenes in it.


What are you listening to this week? Are you a Whovian? If so, which is your favourite Doctor? If not, what is your favourite TV show? What music would you recommend I check out next?

  1. I love Doctor Who. My favourite is the 10th Doctor, followed closely by the 9th. But as for the music, though I love the music from the show, I find that I need complete silence in order to write. I can't even listen to music without words, because then I start thinking and dreaming about stuff and if the music is too lively I start dancing))

    1. 10 is such a good Doctor. He's definitely one of my favourites. I can totally understand the need for silence. Music can be very distracting. Thank you for stopping by Farida!

    1. Thanks for stopping to listen. Some other great Dr Who songs are The Doctor's Theme, and The Doctor Forever. And someone else in the comments suggested Clara's Theme as well.

  3. I have never seen Doctor Who >_< I know, I know, it's bad. And is it even worse if I say that Matt Smith is the best Doctor, just because he's my friend's favourite?? I'm sorry aaaah.

    1. There are so many good TV shows out there it's impossible to get to them all, isn't it? What's your favourite TV show? Or one of them. It's so hard to choose sometimes!

    1. 10 is so good, isn't he? I love him and Donna together. They're probably my favourite Doctor/Companion pair. Who's your favourite companion?

    2. They were a pretty good companion pair for sure. Rory is such a darling. He's probably my favourite of Eleven's companions.

    2. Hi Evie! It's so nice to see you over here too! Twelve is a pretty awesome doctor. He's so different from all the other recent doctors in his personality. It's so refreshing. Ooh, that's a good piece! I should listen to it again soon.

    1. Hey Kristian! This is a nice surprise! Ooh, the fourth doctor is a great choice. I've been slowly working my way through the old Dr Who episodes, but I haven't reached him yet. Looking forward to it though! Ooh, you have the scarf and tie? Those are so cool!
