Doctor Who Theme Music
The Doctor Who theme is a piece of music composed by Ron Grainer and realised by Delia Derbyshire at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Created in 1963, it was one of the first electronic music signature tunes for television, and after nearly five decades remains one of the most easily recognised.
Although numerous arrangements of the theme have been used on television, the main melody has remained the same.
