"Maidens of St Trinians Gird your armour on! Grab the nearest weapon Never mind which one! The battle's to the strongest Might is always right Trample on the weakest Glory in their flight! St Trinians! St Trinians! Our battle cry! St Trinians! St Trinians! Will never die! Strive towards your fortune Boldly on your way! Never once forgetting There's one born every day! Let our motto be broadcast "Get your blow in first!" She who draws her sword last Will always come off worse!"

Wonderful. I can't think of another composer with the range of Malcolm Arnold.

Piano is a difficult instrument to record well for any sound engineer. Making a Concert Steinway sound like the mediocre Challen we had at school must have been a challenge. Lovely stuff!

Indeed he did - great chap. We worked together on a number of recording projects, mostly with the LSO.

Come on be honest who didn’t pull up their collar up and do the flash Harry walk in his theme came in

The main theme (heard at 2:13) sounds a bit like "The Liberty Bell March" - which, some years later, also became a classic musical accompaniment to classic British comedy. And I wonder whether John Cleese, Graham Chapman & Co. picked that march because of its similarity to this, and thus comic resonance.

Sousa might be mildly amused. Malcolm Arnold would surely turn in his grave!

Some of the thumb twiddling and bored postures of the non-playing members of the orchestra is wonderful to behold. Quite unprofessional of course

Could not the account of the film have been accurate. Alistair Sim was the leading star and the racehorse an unknown hence the racing odds. Timothy West this is below standard.
