Autumn on Sodor - Extended (Series 1)

I've always thought this theme was WAY too short and I always loved the classical sound it had. So I went to work and extended to have a few extra verses to make this feel more 'complete'.
The inspiration behind this was Pachelbel's Canon and some of those annoying classical music pieces they play when you get put on hold on the phone lol. I thought the style of those would go with this in a way.
And yes, the real name of this is 'Autumn on Sodor' as I discovered through the official cue sheets.

Hey everyone. Just a quick message. While I know a lot of you enjoy the recreations of O'Donnell and Campbell's legendary work for TTTE. I'd also really appreciate if you'd take a look at music I've written too. I'm looking to experiment and expand as a composer to test my range and ideas, the Thomas stuff is nostalgic and everything but the original works is what I really enjoy to work with. Still on the 80s wave at the moment as there are some sounds I still want to tackle. Recently was Scarlett Avenue, a stereotypical 80's love song, slow jam complete with sax, guitars and warm rhodes chord progressions. I'd appreciate if you guys checked this one out! Thank you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6Hdo4hjmbKNnqs

Your original stuff is some of the best music out there. I don't mind saying you and Mavis M are why I started doing synth music.

"Autumn had come to the Island of Sodor. The fields were changing from yellow stubble to brown earth, and a tractor was hard at work as Thomas puffed along."

Later Thomas saw the tractor close by. "Hello." said the tractor. "I'm Terence, I'm plowing."

THIS.... Ty, no joke, I write this now, listening to this glorious piece , from my Step in Beautiful Nova Scotia on an Autumn Day of the ages .... Enjoying a double of Apple Pie Moonshine, Neat, and a FRESH Scotian Macintosh Apple itself. Thank you so much on behalf of a LOT of people for building Onto this Glorious piece of music. Have a good one and Enjoy the rest of Autumn 2022! 😊

[@mirrorgs]

I cannot for the life of me recall the classical piece that 0:18 sounds like, but it really elevates the vibes of this piece!

[@epicgoji800]

Is it canon in d?

[@Microwave_404]

I mean it's not classical but it reminds me of Memories by Maroon 5

[@doctorelijah]

@@Microwave_404 omg it actually sounds so much like that

[@biggallcaps]

I remember this short ditty, and now it's a masterpiece 👌

[@shuntingyard]

I love how this theme's string beat founded the Viaduct Theme for Series 2, a theme so grand that can be used for montages of hard work on the busy railway, while this custom extended theme has such a beautiful seasonal feel to it that just symbolizes the simple slow day on the railway. Truly nice job on this one man!

[@BimbelyGimbly]

I can absolutely feel the inspiration from Vivaldi in this one, exceptional job as always!

[@NickOzorak]

That's a very creative use of the Pachelbel Canon chord progression. Great work!

[@TomedysTrains]

I love the Autumn theme from Thomas the Tank Engine, it sounds so jubilant and English, yet it sounds good in any sunny [autumn] scene anywhere around the world, even my home nation, the United States. Great remake and extension of a great classic Thomas tune. The extensions you added in the middle sound fantastic and the ending sounds less abrupt to me than the original on the show.

[@saltutter3160]

First heard: Thomas, Terence and the Snow (1984) Last heard: Thomas and Trevor (1986)

[@minty-industrialsteamprodu1747]

A couple times I thought this was about to become a remix of Memories by Maroon 5

[@spitfire_25]

Same.

[@JamDread99]

I literally has the same chord progression, I sung the song while this was playing and it sounded near perfect.

[@trakkKonnektin]

I loved this version of Autumn On Sodor. I liked how you added the melody of Pachebel’s Canon to a part of the song. great work as always Sudrian Afro.

[@stepneybulstrodemusic1761]

Ooh what a fun piece! Never knew this theme had so much potential!

[@GeorgeLowther2000]

Autumn is one of my favourite seasons of the year It’s nice to listen to this theme

Finally, this theme in all of its glory

Perfect for this time of the year

I always enjoyed this music cue, and it was very short and used very rarely in the series. Wonderful job mate ❤🎉

[@LotsOfPiecesOfJay]

would love to see this lead into the viaduct theme

[@dryitelad]

This is awesome Ty, I want you to do more extended themes like the Viaduct theme and Gordon’s Rescue Theme!

Just in time for Fall. Thanks S.A Music

[@fudge-furret]

The extended bits sound like memories from Maroon 5 and I love and hate it.

[@UnbreakableSodor]

S.A, you have such a creative mind when composing music

[@SmallTown_Studio]

Yay an extended version of my favorite theme!

[@TheBrickGuy7939]

This was at the top of my list for extension wishes. Awesome.

[@LittleJerryFan92]

Beautiful job with this extension, a shame it was only used two times during the Clearwater era. Nice job!

[@marlocroft4779]

Was this used in season 1-2

[@betamaxblocker]

Love this extension! Although I did keep thinking it was going to break into the Viaduct theme at any moment.

[@engineboy53productions15]

Am I stupid, or did I hear Canon in D at one point? Edit: around 0:27 - 0:32 Edit number 2: Well, I’m not an idiot for thinking it was Canon in D, I am an idiot for not looking in the description. 😂

Wow, this one was very impressive. I'm guessing doing an extended version of this theme was very hard.

Is it weird that I can kinda hear Maroon 5 - Memories here?

[@RingoandCarlin]

Will you do the Terence the Tractor theme soon?

I can definitely hear some Mannheim steamroller sound in this extended version of the autumn theme.

Did you add some aspects of Canon in there?

Thanks but that was actually Thomas Winter Theme if you listen closely.

Legendary stuff mate. Well done. Just out of interest, is it possible to get a version of theme at the beginning of tenders and turntables up? The particular theme is actually played in many episodes of season 1 but probably most prominent in that episode.
