Thorpe Park - Music

Music

The music played at Thorpe Park is a combination of commercial tracks, library music, and commissioned music. Composers such as Crispin Merrell and Ian Habgood have composed music for various attractions including Nemesis Inferno and Colossus respectively. In 2010, the usual entrance theme by Ian Habgood was replaced with chart music.

The Swarm has its own theme song made by local band You Me At Six.

Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “Music is either sacred or secular. The sacred agrees with its dignity, and here has its greatest effect on life, an effect that remains the same through all ages and epochs. Secular music should be cheerful throughout.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “I’d rather you shot at tin cans in the back yard, but I know you’ll go after birds. Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit ‘em, but remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.... Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don’t eat up people’s gardens, don’t nest in corncribs, they don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.”
    —Harper Lee (b. 1926)

    “Where should this music be? I’ th’ air, or th’ earth?
    It sounds no more.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
