What a trip down memory lane, had no idea it came from a classical piece! Remember that the Nokia tune in the beginning was one of the many ringtones that also had a vibration pattern that follow the melody, which was especially useful when you put your phone on "vibrate".
Fun Fact: The Nokia 2010 was the first phone to have the tune as a ringtone. It was also my first phone and I was 18 at the time. That was around Jan 1996.
I still use the 5190 / 3310 version on my Moto G stylus. When I receive a call, it turns heads for anyone who remembers. People expect me to play 'Snake', too...
When I had one of the early smartphones - a Sony Ericsson P800, I got my band mate to play the original of Gran Vals on his acoustic guitar, which I then recorded and set as my ring tone. I felt very smug and funny.
I used to compose ringtones on my nokia 3310 when I was 13 years old, I programmed in Eminem's Trailer park girls. It's probably the first time in my life composing music on a computer
Oh yes, the glory days of a much simpler time… Nokia mobiles only charged once a week and perhaps if you were a business hipster, a Blackberry for email. 🙃
I still use my Nokia for daily use. When Nokia was whoared out to Microsoft I bought a few original Nokia phones for later. I never regretted this. It is a known fact that when a company is sold to Microsoft bad thing will happen to it and everything that made it great is altered and changed and corrupted.
