TRF Music?

Can anyone tell me what the music is in this episode? I'm particularly interested in finding out about the classical piece while JM is in the Tower, smashing into that display case, and the police are running to the scene. Also the one where JM is being marched into court.  Is there a website where I can get info about the music in the show? Thanks, everyone.

Re: TRF Music?

For the first one:
It's the overture to the opera La Gazza Ladra by Gioacchino Rossini, which is fairly appropriate, given that the title translates to "The Thieving Magpie".

Hi ancientsgate,

The Tower of London escapade background music is The Thieving Magpie Overture by Rossini. Plenty of versions on YT, I'm curently listening to this

The other is Nina Simone's 'Sinnerman' The full version is quite long, 9+ minutes I think, here's a link, but again, plenty to choose from.

The choice of music in TRF is brilliant

Re: TRF Music?

If you go onto the Soundtrack thread there are a couple of further discussions there plus other information about the composers of the original soundtrack.
