Pirates of the Caribbean - Theme Song

[jennastar654]

Well this is definately different than what I am used to hearing from this song! We play this for high school pep band, nearly all the same parts, but we play it in about 1-2 minutes! We play the parts 'He's a Pirate' 'The Black Pearl' and 'The Medallion Calls' I think that may be it :D I play clarinet btw :D

[GoldenJay99]

some of the best music work EVER!

[lobost12]

this song is fucking epic!

[MrKimpy1]

hey xx deze is aff



[MarchingBand2015]

Good piece- but tuning seems to be their challenge. Also: BRASS. Watch the 'blatt'ing at 4:05. You sound sloppy, the tone goes down, and you start to drag. Just saying you want nice warm, powerful sounds- not sloppy and unprofessional. I must give you credit for attempting a very challenging piece, but the execution wasn't as good as it could've been. But overall, pretty nice.Okay yeah, tuning @5:35 needs a LOT of work in the brass.

[pkfighter343]

@MarchingBand2015 I'm pretty sure this is a professional band.

[MrMacandcheese8]

@pkfighter343 i dont think so, my middle school band played this and we played it faster than this

[pkfighter343]

@MrMacandcheese8 From some research, it show they are a high school invitational band. Faster doesn't mean better. They played it nearly perfectly.

[pkfighter343]

@pkfighter343 Honestly, they could have done a LOT worse.

[mariocomet]

Yayz :D I played this at mmy winter concert a few weeks ago xD. My fave part is 3:20 even though i have 10 measures of rest.. lol. I play clarinet btw ^^

[arkjd20111]

All of u suck, u all apparently don't know what u all are talking about this song is just fine all it needs is nothing it is just fine.

[MsHotlikethis]

i still think it sucks

[yasminload63]

I GET TO PLAY THIS AT MASSED BAND AT TENINO HIGH SCHOOL

[Dani09094]

bring out the flutes and clarinets, all I could here was basses and tenors on your chords.

[RomeoHighDrumline]

Needs more snare :)

[1ggaavviinn]

oh my god im in symphonic at gentrey u said goose creek and your username was mustang 4010

[CheezburgerWithFries]

I played this in my middle schoold band, we even came up with a little song.

THIS IS THE TALE, OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW, A PIRATE SO BRAVE, ON THE SEVEN SEAS, ON A MYSTICAL QUEST, TO THE ISLAND TOTUGA

and that's all we really knew

[roxasnider12]

trombonist rule the world

[papijajatigeryou]

a bit slow

[MrWheel555]

thumbs up if your a trombinist

[Runexn]

@MrWheel555 TrombOnist*

[mchaabs25]

BEST. THEME SONG. EVER

[DESPOILER101]

There's no way to have an argument with this, it's down to personal preference. Personally, I think it would be amazing with the best of both worlds, strings to start but then some more brass or wind instruments to emphasise certain parts.

[MsHotlikethis]

i want to say 1 thing to that band ( get a life)

[Uk12Us]

Aw I was trcked

[addiev1]

who thinks this is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better then the strings? (i'm in band and its war between strings and band. btw i'm in band so i'm on bands side.) band is way better then those silly strings!

[ducky570773]

@addiev1 ever notices how orchestra always has some brass in it though?

[addiev1]

@ducky570773

yeah because they HAVE to have band helping them because lets face it...they stink

[DolphinNeko]

@addiev1 Honestly I think both strings and band are awesome in their own way. and they especially sound epic if they're all played together! (I play in my highschool orchestra but I like both band and orchestra.)

[pwnedmodder]

Trumpets FTW!!!!!!!!

[czeckandfizz]

My band had to play this song in marhing band!!! loved it! One of the baton twirlers twirled fire!!!!!!!!! Awsome come back for such a tiny band!!!!!

[sandyfoot123]

GO CLARINETS

[Gossipnastar]

LOW BRASS!!! >:D

[misuhida]

Love All this songs!!!

[xSatashi]

I had to learn how to play snare on this piece ;A; It's insane, but so much fun!

[XtremeDrake]

Now i feel like rewatching the whole series over again!!!

[regan1zosa]

percussion FTW!!

[addiev1]

@MsHotlikethis

string lover. why dont you go and play it? you'd sound like a pile of horse shit.

[theninjaassassin34]

Some parts are 2 slow

[mandzy09]

Y manque de cor français dans la version. Pis si y en a un ben y joue pas assez fort! C'est ben dommage parce que c'est lui qui a la mélodie dans plus de 75% de la pièce.

[JonnyJones324]

@DancingMonkeez Do not confuse Zimmer with Williams.. Zimmer is good, but John Williams is on a different level

[blowfishz]

needs more tuba...

[TubaChan27]

4:29. I LOVE THAT LOW NOTE.

/tuba geek

[AAlex266]

sounds good

[moviemadness2009]

this sounds professional

[auflipgirl98]

We played this last year in 7th grade but it was a different arrangement.. Mostly the same but different parts

[Aseratia]

nice low brass section!

[millybieberful]

PIRATES FOREVERRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sticklord42]

wait.... wat do pirates have to do with ninjas?

[26aurian]

soy trompetista y cuando estaba en la banda de aqui se tocaba ese tema,, es re bacano tocarlo C:

[QueenieLoveable]

This is amazing. I'm in low brass, and I must say, the low brass in this band kicked ass.

Beautiful.

[bluebeautifulocean]

my school band had more of a strong part in it. it was AWESOME they are awesome

[kenkaish]

thumb up if you think johnny depp is best actor in the world

[Codymixmasta]

Pirates vs ninjas! Thumbs down for ninjas thumbs up for pirates CONTEST! :3?

[Soralover2008]

my school band plays this song :3 i love to play my saxophone part, but we arent as good as these people (let alone have as many different instruments)

SAXOPHONES FTW!

[thelostsoul419]

Strings section FTW!

[italaugh83745]

@thelostsoul419 What strings section...?

[mustang4010]

@thelostsoul419 lol there's no strings section here....

[arkofmiracles]

@mustang4010 this is the concert band arrangement. the band's not an orchestra.

[ThOmAsSs55]

@mustang4010 yes there is .. my teacher bought the score of the song and it came with all the string parts.

[ThOmAsSs55]

@ThOmAsSs55 and we also have strings in our symphonic band.

[Ornerysob]

@thelostsoul419 Thats flutes and clarinets, and maybe alto sax, they can sound like strings together

[Devosaw]

@thelostsoul419 lol you're dumb

[247Hyperactive]

The trombones make me happy. :D

Plus, even though 7th position is impossible, the trombone is one of the best instruments ever.

[cmwhidden]

Trombones rock!!!

[GottaLoveConverse101]

ilovethiss. were doing this this year in advanced band. cant wait. PERCUSSION ROCKS.

[Willielikesmonkeys]

hans zimmer..... if only he didnt use the same melody in every damn song!

[DancingMonkeez]

[DancingMonkeez]

@mustang4010 what did I say again lol

[darrellrayonroblox]

@DancingMonkeez u dont know ur themes now do u

[GalskapOgMagi]

@DancingMonkeez well yeah, sounds a lot more like a marching band, which is going to sound a lot more climactic, they still did a great job, you have to admit!

[addiev1]

@DancingMonkeez

GOOSEBUMPS!!!!!

[jkb1024]

top 5 things

pirates #1 pirates #2 pirates #3 pirates #4 black ops #5

[jaimerider]

@jkb1024 halo 1 halo 2 halo 3 halo reach 4

[TheMathias95]

@jaimerider wow get a life nerd

[vykkheralden]

@jaimerider

You mean Halo 1. Maybe Halo 2. Halo 3? No. And Halo Reach? Absolutely not. Halo 4 upcoming? Most likely not.

Halo Anniversary? I hope so. Halo 1 was and still is the best Halo game to date. The rest diminished from the awesome universe and story, and focused mainly on multiplayer. Which is stupid. The multiplayer that is. Even Call of Duty is more fun that that broken sack of shit.

[TheRedaegis]

@vykkheralden I agree completely, I was only around 5 or 6 when Halo first came out but the music, the campaign, the characters, and the enviorment are absolutely perfect. It was one of the FEW games of the time that had great graphics and amazing gameplay instead of just graphics like Call of Duty and the new Halo's have.

[Gsaba97]

Percussions!!!!!!!!!!! :-)

[RDnsCommunity]

I hate the praf 7:33 

[MegaGermanshepherds]

I love the monkey and Jack Sparrow and his pirate crew! Gryffindor does not deal with this song.

[rayrox135]

[XxDainBramagedxX]

CLARINETS FTW!!!!!!!!!

[sarirachfradsham]

[SensationallyAwkward]

My 8th grade band played a whole Pirates of the Caribbean show in marching band. :)

[MattyBur1]

well thats pretty good for a band. i also think that tuba and bass drum rule becauser the band cant keep the beat if theres no  BOM BOM BOM BOM BOM BOM BOM............. Get the point?

[samfinlay1]

[Freedom9595]

[emel361]

Johnny Depp is the king of all the ninjas and pirates :P

[whatdhellusername]

Johnny Depp revolutionized the idea of pirates. They are so much cooler than Ninjas now.

[alexnednerb]

@whatdhellusername WHAT??? ninjas are still a lil bit awesomer :P

[antowarren]

@whatdhellusername Pirates have always been cooler than ninjas!

[TheSrdic]

@whatdhellusername not as cool as palaeontologists though.

[Athrun000]

@whatdhellusername I agree that Pirate is cooler than ninja...

...Because of One Piece...

[vykkheralden]

@whatdhellusername

Only in movies.

[ViolentFury1]

@whatdhellusername ne revolutionized nothing. he done what he was told to do.

[astronautis1674]

@whatdhellusername nahhhh, you'll just have to w8 until he plays as a Ninja in some movie.... xD

[TheUnNerved]

@whatdhellusername Dude...Pirates have always been cool.

[danscho2]

@whatdhellusername nothing is better than ninjas :D

[RavenDestroyer]

@whatdhellusername Pirates versus ninja's, Pirates scares the bejeesus out of yea, ninja's ain't there even when they are there well i won't have either nor both after me

[99markwatson99]

[meowthecow1995]

My school band did this, and the colorguard and I did flagwork to this, too! It was so fun, and it was my favorite routine ever! Especially because of the fact that I love pirates and obsess Johnny Depp... hehe

[ladyswagga23kisses]

[pwnedmodder]

[ProbHob]

So is this the whole theme song-like absolutely the whole piece, or does anyone know? Can someone help me out?

[ChickyIsLame]

Clarinet win!

[10nikapoel]

It's perfect ! Well Done!

[37meghan]

im a trombone player and i love it but i must say that clarinets are boss in this song

[SeraphineMayumi]

AHH! We did Pirates with our marching band and it was EPIC! I love it when bands play music like this!

[KitKatman2008]

Low brass. DUHHHHHHHH.

[PirateGal98]

[rakkushra]

The only problem as someone said on t he pages beyond... Should have brought out the low brass too..the bass is lacking >.< Other than that.. I can totally see a pirate adventure happening.

[15wss]

Fodaa.

Muito show

[pandaroo5247]

violenists!

[SearingWolfe]

If you have the sheet music still, can you tell me the exact song name and the person who made it? I really want to find it and download the song.

[scottmarshall456]

@SearingWolfe It's called "The Medallion Calls" and it composed by Hans Zimmer.

[evilkk3029]

@scottmarshall456 actually it was composed by klaus bedelt, hans zimmer didnt write music for potc til the 2nd movie....u can tell the difference cos zimmer loves strings more....best pirates themes played with brass all the way! and the medallion calls is just a part of this, theres others called fog bound and he's a pirate

[scottmarshall456]

@evilkk3029 Ahh, there you have it, there always seems to someone smarter than you on the internet :P Thanks for that, I'll be honest, that was mostly guesswork, and it was mostly wrong :P The only thing I do know, is this is awfuly fun to play percussion for as part of an orchestra :P
