The Nokia Tune
It's probably the most often played piece of music in the world but few people know what it is.
The jaunty sound with its unmistakable rhythm that goes something like 'diddle-um-dum, diddle-um-dum, diddle-um dum-dum' is from a classical guitar work called Gran Vals composed by Francisco Tarrega in the 19th century.
Got it yet? If not, you will know it as the 'Nokia Tune' because it's been the standard ringtone for Nokia mobiles for the past 10 years.
PS:
Klik even door naar die Nokia-pagina, kun je de originele Nokia-tune op je telefoon zetten...
