The BBC National Orchestra of Wales (Welsh: Cerddorfa Genedlaethol Gymreig … Read Full Bio ↴The BBC National Orchestra of Wales (Welsh: Cerddorfa Genedlaethol Gymreig y BBC) is the only professional symphony orchestra organisation in Wales, occupying a dual role as both a broadcasting orchestra and national orchestra. Currently, the orchestra’s conducting team consists of Thierry Fischer (Principal Conductor, since September 2006), Jac van Steen (Principal Guest Conductor), Tadaaki Otaka (Conductor Laureate) and Grant Llewellyn (Associate Guest Conductor). Richard Hickox, following his final concert as Principal Conductor on July 23, 2006, was the orchestra's Conductor Emeritus until his death in November 2008.
As Orchestra-in-Residence at St David's Hall, Cardiff, Wales, the orchestra gives over 20 concerts each year in the Welsh capital, but also performs regularly throughout Wales and beyond, including international tours and annual appearances at the Royal Albert Hall in London as part of the BBC Proms. Broadcasting work includes studio sessions for BBC radio and television, although the orchestra’s concerts form the bulk of its broadcasts, transmitted primarily on BBC Radio 3 but also on BBC Radio Wales, BBC Radio Cymru and BBC television. The orchestra performs a wide repertoire including contemporary music, and the post of Composer in Association is held by Michael Berkeley.

If there's one good thing about Daleks, it's the epic soundtrack they always get.

Aristide Twain

6y↑16

I love how at 1:00 the music briefly goes grand and sweeping without any dark undertones. As evidenced by the Cult of Skaro, the Daleks aren't just mindless killing machines; they're a people with their own culture, and they genuinely think a Dalek rule for the universe is a good and admirable thing. For them this was meant to be an inspiring victory.

Lepimond

4y↑3

Yes!

A lot of people, including DW fans, sometimes forget that the Daleks truly believe that by killing billions of intelligent life forms and performing genocides they are doing a favor for the universe.

It's not only their technological superiority that makes them so powerful: it's been shown a plenty of times that alien weaponry (as well as, surely, human weaponry from the future) can kill a Dalek. Actually, the humans must have already got the weaponry powerful enough: in "The Dalek" the Doctor proclaims that all people in the city above the base where the Dalek is located will die because of the Dalek. He does not say "all people on planet Earth", he only tells us about the city. I'm quite sure he means that when the US government discovers that in one of their cities all population is dead because of some indestructible tin box, they will nuke it and even the Dalek will not survive that.

It's their beliefs together with technology that make them so powerful. The most dangerous enemy is the enemy that truly thinks he does a good thing.

I know it’s Hebrew, but growing up I always thought this song was singing either “This is a former Dalek” or “This is a form of Dalek”
Highlighting the power Dalek Sec achieved in two languages, whether it’s intentional or not

Much of what you're describing is pretty clearly audible, but the main line that people argue about is not clear to me. You say "Dalek Sec oh mah koreh", but it sounds a lot more like "Ih Sec oh morah koreh." I realize that probably doesn't make any sense, but it's what I hear while looking at what you wrote (which is also supported by the webpage: http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Hebrew ).
The rhythm has 7 beats with emphasis on even beats, which doesn't line up with the words you've suggested (Dalek Sec would have emphasis on 1 and 3).
I just can't hear the correct words.

@17thSHIT I don't agree. I think Moffat is a real genius. And so is Russell T Davies. And I'd like to point out that all of the episodes Moffat wrote during the Davies era won AT LEAST ONE award, except for Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead, in which anyway he has the great merit of introducing the character of River Song thus beginning with a new storyline which he is developing in a great way. Just to say :)

Manobaru

10y↑3

Don't know the whole lyrics, but the part that most of you hear as "...form of Daleks", or "...human Dalek" is "...oh, mah koreh" witch is Hebrew for "oh, what's happening".

Damian Freeman

I think it's mostly just Oh, mah koreh with different pronunciations in most of it. I mean the original Dalek theme used that as its one and only lyric. I'm not quite sure why Gold picked a fairly vague question in Hebrew as the lyrics to his themes for the Daleks but...

@1littlelaura If you're talking about the new series, yes, he has written episodes for all 4 series. He also wrote a Comic Relief episode in 1999, Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death, but that was a parody, not an episode which is usually seen on the lists of episodes. Anyway, yes. :)

@fenrir139 Yes, it would seem that you are right. "In September 2011 Doctor Who Magazine stated series 7 will air from autumn 2012." - Wikipedia. My previous statement was also derived from Wikipedia, where it says "that 14 new episodes have been commissioned following the 2011 Christmas special," but I guess I didn't see that other line there at the time, which it seems likely was probably there a month ago and I simply didn't notice it. So yeah, you're right.

@snowden63 Yeah, none of them can really control the TARDIS, can they?! To be fair though, in one episode the Doctor says that the TARDIS was never meant to be flown solo, and when he has a team to help him fly it, they end up exactly where they mean to go.

@imaginary92 Well I think the style in this was a bit more contemporary and properly done. But for the Matt Smith seasons he just went out of control and in my opinion, wrote quite a lot of crap. Possibly because he was head writer and wasn't restrained by Davies.

@alphamone actually, i have heard "The Daleks" and it is the only soundtrack that uses Hebrew, they are singing "oh, whats happening" :P if there's Hebrew in THIS soundtrack, then it is REALLY hard to find...still, ill try listening some more, maybe i will find some familiar words :P its harder to listen when the music is so louder than the voices....

James De St Aubin

Pretty sure it says "These are the last four daleks" or "Which one stole my party"

Mm, but I in know way dislike this version... I just get more of a rush from hearing the TV version. That version makes me think of mighty space battles and escaping a crashing building (fitting for the end scene of Asylum of the Daleks). This version make me think of a great villain emerging through some large ancient doors, strutting up a stair case, and at last a dramatic turn as they sit on their throne, and making an evil command to their minions.

@RhamosVhailejh I know, I said four because in those series he wrote as occasional writer, he wasn't the head writer. Since I was talking about the stories as occasional writer, I did not need to include all series. Really, I don't need to be taught about Doctor Who. I may not have been a fan since 1963, but I do know the series well, don't worry. ;)
