?What is your cellphone ringtone?

[shasta]

What do the illustrious members of Piano Forum (erm, Street) have as their cellphone ringtone?     

Mine is the intro of the Great Gates of Kiev from Mussorgsky's Pictures (orchestral version)

[Siberian Husky]

[Floristan]

...a tango, Cumparasita...silly, I know 

[zheer]

  aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh, haw sweet.

[pianistimo]

the hungarian tune in the paganini variations.  (don't ever get that one!  the second time it rings you are already mad).

[quantum]

I don't have a cellphone, but here are ones I would may like if I had one:

- Dies Irae chant theme.... in variants by different composers
- Rite of Spring... especially that dance theme from the opening of 2nd mvt.
- a bunch of people screaming at the top of their lungs
- sound of a crow
- voice saying "don't answer the phone"
- fog horn
- sound of truck backing up
- white, pink, or brown noise
- some very-bangy-gone-into-maddness piano music
- the sound of a phone dialing a number
- a constant very high pitched sine wave
- voice saying "I know cell phone rings in public are anoying, but isn't this ring tone even more anoying?"
- voice saying "What's the most anoying ring tone you ever heard"

[danyal]

Mine sounds like a mosquito. Very funny while standing in a crowd Its identical... I've even gotten confused in the middle of the night.

[pianistimo]

too funny, both of you.  yes, you have to keep it realistic.  i'm afraid the fog horn would make me turn around.

[Tash]

my phone ring tones suck. i wanted classical but i don't think it even has any and as if i can be bothered wasting my money buying one. so i went for the sound of the old traditional phone ringing. and my sms beeper is a cuckoo clock

Each of them, and coupled to different items of the internal phone list.

Old phone

Queen of the Night aria from the "Magic Flute".

[pianistimo]

berrt, that's very funny, too.  (*thinks about the bangy-gone-into- madness idea and who i would pair it with).

[Jacey1973]

I have crap ringtones on my mobile, but i was bored the other day (very bored) and so i worked out the beginning Beethoven's Hammerklavier (1st mov't)and Les Adieux (3rd mov't) using the composer option on my phone....they sound so funny, i had to improvise a bit though - as i couldn't make chords etc lol...i also put the beginning of Elgar's Cello concerto on there too.

People give me funny looks sometimes though when the phone goes off as if to say "what the hell is that?!"

[Waldszenen]

Chopin's Scherzo No. 1 (Richter)

Liszt Feux Follets (Arrau)

[infectedmushroom]

I don't have a cellphone... I just hate being interrupted while I practise on the piano!

[amanfang]

Haha.  I have Beethoven's 5th on mine.  After that first opening motive, the "drums" come in and syncopate it for the rest of the time.

[gonzalo]

I have the Ride of The Valkyries and it's really energetic 

[donjuan]

Cell phones are ridiculously expensive!  Also, people who use them while driving piss me off something fierce. 

On 20/20, they said that in 25% of cell phone conversations you see in public, there is no one on the other line!  The owner is just trying to look all important and business-like while they walk around, so they put a phone to their head and talk to themselves.

[Floristan]

Queen of the Night aria from the "Magic Flute".

Wonderful!  Where did you get it?

[pianowolfi]

Flight of the bumble bee

[dwinhoood]

Instead of using the iPhone's default ringtone, I chose the song Rockstar - Lisa to personalize my ringtone.

[jaquet]

My ringtone is default but my alarm is 10 no 5 played by pollini- and yes i cant hear the piece the same and also yes i do jolt awake when i hear it

[brogers70]

Don't have a cell phone. Eventually it will get to be too hard to go anywhere outside the little town I live in without one, but for now, I love not having the interruptions and drain on attention.
