A type of MoodMotif that began in medieval Europe and was traditionally used to celebrate the arrival of [[RoyalBlood a royal person]]. Today, it is still present in music as a form of celebrating something. A fanfare generally uses horns, or the closest digital music equivalent, and is stirring and uplifting.

Removed all that redundancy and over-qualification. This is all we need to know what trope we are talking about.

A fanfare always consists of these three elements. If one is missing, it's not a fanfare.
# Trumpets, other brass instruments, or the closest digital music equivalent, are present through a significant portion of the piece. This is likely because trumpets carried better than most other instruments in the Middle Ages.
# It must be stirring or uplifting. You don't want people to be in a sullen or blasé mood when the King arrives.
# Although it is hard to quantify, the piece must instill a sense of majesty, since fanfares originally heralded the arrival of ''His'' Majesty.

If done right, it's a CrowningMusicOfAwesome, since ''not'' being awesome defeats the purpose.

edited to be more like it was before recent edits (though I left the qualify>quantify change, that's the wrong word)... it is crappy to women, but I guess accurate, since queens didn't "originally" get fanfare, and it's consistent with the previous line, which specifies King... I still think this is unclear. See discussion page.

That is an extremely impolite tone. No one said they were the same, just very similar. The difference should be clarified, probably by drastic rewording; or if they aren't significantly different, they should be merged. I don't understand the definition well enough to make that decision. Oh and: LAST WORD AFAIK WOO!

"stirring" doesn't necessarily lead to a feeling of majesty. So stop assuming they are the same.

" The repetition of "Majesty" is to emphasize the point. Changing even part of it loses that. "... strongly disagree, majestic>majesty is better style than majesty>majesty, but communicates the same thing... leaving it, tho... this is totally broken by too much fixing :) it is unclear how #3 is different than #2, should either be significantly reworded, or deleted... and this should be a forum post :)

* In settings of the Requiem Mass, "Tuba mirum" is a good place to look for fanfares combined with OminousLatinChanting. Mozart's only has a relatively tame trombone solo, but the Berlioz and Verdi Requiems pile on the brass magnificently.
