Music on board during boarding and Taxi

[EI-BUD]

This is probably a strange thread and strange question but there is bound to be someone who knows the info!!

I like Classical music, easy listening stuff. Bmi play some nice classical tracks during boarding and while on taxi. How would I got about find the name of same and the composers etc.

There was one and I heard it on classic FM last week and notes the name that the radio host said but cannot find it online. It was Goldrich I think. It was Piano.

If anyone knows how to get this info ie source of airline background music. I would be very pleased!

Apart from asking BMI who would I am sure tell you, you could use an IPhone app!!

There is one that can identify any tune that it hears and can tell you who it is by and what the name of the piece is. Don't know what the app is called but loads of people have it on their IPhone.

You're right, EI-BUD, that's a new one in here! Usually, any thread about boarding music is about how bad it is or how to get it shut off!! ;)

Welcome to Shazam (http://www.shazam.com/)

If you have an Android phone, download SoundHound (it's free and unlimited) and you'll be able to find out what it's called. You make a short recording inside the app and it will analyze it and tell you the name of the song. Great piece of software

Sorry beaten to it , didn't see the reply :O

Classic FM

The Classic FM website lists its playlist minute by minute, see On air | Playlist - Classic FM (http://www.classicfm.co.uk/on-air/playlist/?date=2011-02-22) for example.

have a look here;

bmi Voyager (http://www.bmivoyager.com/)

Click at the top of the screen on IFE and its at the bottom of page 114

The track listing for the current boarding music is usually listed near the In-Flight entertainment section of Voyager Magazine (onboard aircraft where IFE is equipped only).

Ax:ok:

I'm not sure if this is in the right forum, so please move it if it isn't!

I recently was on a Qatar Airways A330-200 last month and heard really nice relaxing music and would like to know what the name of it is. Below is the link:

Qatar Airways Flute Music.mp3 - 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download (http://www.4shared.com/audio/JWDjMq7b/Qatar_Airways_Flute_Music.html)

Is there any website in particular that you can find a list of different cabin music from a variety of airlines, but in particular Qatar Airways.

Any help would be much appreciated

Off topic but it's late and I just read this:

"I wish there was a Shazam app for people’s faces."

How totally correct, exactly what I need. In my job, I meet a couple of hundred people a week and they all just blur.

It sounds like my brother on his recorder in 1974.

BA had it right with clair de lune. Now they buggerize around with ghastly abortions of nonsense,

Midnight Sonata might sound a bit downbeat, but it's all I can manage on a piano:
We're going to die
We're going to die
Die
Die Die
We're going to die
and so on.

Flower duet was fine with me, ideally performed by Katherine Jenkins and Charlotte Church in swimsuits, recumbent in a very small vat of warm caramel.

Dear SO,

It's good to know that there are others capable of writing such things in themiddle of the night.

Yours etc.
