It is with much sadness that we announce the passing of one of the original Doctor Who incidental music composers, Tristram Cary. He died peacefully in his sleep early this morning at his home in Adelaide, Australia.
Tristram was one of the pioneers in electronic music, having experimented with sound and tape manipulation whilst working as a naval radar engineer during World War II. He went on to create one of the very first electric music studios and was also a co-designer of the first portable synthesizer.
The Murray Gold of his day, Tristram scored several memorable Doctor Who adventures, including The Daleks, Marco Polo, The Daleks' Master Plan and The Gunfighters.
Cary was well known for his other film and television work. Aside from Doctor Who, he provided scores for television shows such as Jane Eyre (1963) and Madame Bovary (1964). Carey's film credits include classic Ealing comedy The Lady Killers (1955) and Hammer's Quatermass and The Pit'(1967).
In 2005 Carey received the Lifetime Achievement Award for his contribution to music in England and Austraila from the Adelaide Critics' Circle. |

Excuse yourself Wo-Ting-Ownymclown. This guy was giving props to someone that contributed to electronic music. I wouldn't call you a belland though. You look more like smegma to me. |
