The Music of The Musketeers

Part Two: The Musketeers' Theme

♩ ♪ ♫ ♬ ♭ ♮ ♯

Series One There is no official Series One soundtrack, so I'm eternally grateful to the fans who took the time to extract parts of the score from various episodes. The pieces aren't perfect but they're still great, and beats the alternative of having absolutely no soundtrack for the season.

The unreleased music below, Fight at the Garrison, is from Episode 1 Friends and Enemies, where d’Artagnan confronts Athos (and meets his future brothers!) at the garrison. The theme starts around 0:59, after the classic scene of the boys crossing ⚔️ at the table.

[And before that, if you listen hard enough, you can hear Athos say, "Don't make me kill you over a mistake." 😉]

♩ ♪ ♫ ♬ ♭ ♮ ♯

Series Two and Three The show got a new hero theme after Paul Englishby took over from Murray Gold as series composer. Variations of The Musketeers can be heard in most of the compositions for Series Two and Three, from exhilarating (They Are Here Somewhere, Refugees) to inspiring (The Ravine, Series Three Finale) to poignant (Training the Village, We Refuse to Die).

Would have loved for the theme to be longer but hey, it's an official release (yay!) and there's always the replay button. [It also makes a great ring tone.]

Enjoy!

♩ ♪ ♫ ♬ ♭ ♮ ♯

Fun Fact Both finales of Series Two (2x10 Trial and Punishment) and Three (3x10 We are the Garrison) are the only episodes to use a variation of Paul Englishby's The Musketeers for the closing credits instead of Murray Gold's opening theme.

Next: The Ravine Part One

Hey, Musketeers fans! Did you know that Chris Pine's coat in the Dungeons and Dragons movie is the same as the one that Aramis wore in Season 3? Well now you do.

Thanks to @montalais for pointing it out!

We all know these divas 😍

(Closed RP.)

Garrison has his feet propped up on a table in front of him, two chairs placed on either side of him. He’s sipping on a glass of gin- the same Barrage had picked up earlier, the No.3 London Dry- as he holds a cigarette in the other hand. Both the bottle of gin and some Michter’s sit at the side of his propped boots.

He stares lazily up at the hanger’s ceiling, looking at the ribs and vaults of the metal keeping out the cold. He’s grateful, truthfully, that he managed to find a spot here. He hopes the ones who ride the birds wouldn’t mind him stealing their corner for an hour or so.

He places his glass down gently on an end table next to him as he puts his hands on his chest, his cigarette hanging loosely in his lips.

And he waits.

No seriously, as much as I love to laugh at this, how did it happen though?

I mean, did Treville sneak into Louis' bedroom in the middle of night and steal the order decreeing Aramis to go and fight in the frontiers or something?

Did the Queen burn the will and forge a new one after his death?

I NEED to know!

welp, that’s one way to acknowledge the election 🤣

#VOLTRON IS TRENDING WE R SO BACKKKKKK

One of my FAVOURITE ship dynamics to write or read in fics is when two characters are basically already a couple but they just haven't realised it yet. They call each other up at like 3am, they cuddle, they sleep in the same bed, they fall asleep in each other's arms, they hold hands, they practically live together, they talk about having a ~ special connection ~, they just haven't actually kissed or done the do or talked about their feelings yet so they're still both like "but I just don't know if they like me in that way!!"

The trans arc with Mr. Garrison is blatantly transphobic and the "they make fun of everyone!" argument should not apply to jokes about minorities, especially coming from two straight white men. Totally ruined the show for me and made me feel unsafe within my (now ex) friend group, who thought the trans arc was hilarious, despite me (a trans man) being right there.
