The William Tell Overture was composed by Gioachino Rossini for his 1829 opera, and its finale became widely known in the 20th century as the theme for The Lone Ranger radio and television series. This short clip uses Walter Carlos's electronic arrangement recorded for Stanley Kubrick's 1971 film A Clockwork Orange, where a sped-up version underscores a chaotic scene. Online, the recognisable gallop has outlived both contexts and is now shared as a shorthand for any rushed, old-fashioned chase or frantic montage.
