@@HOwNOTthink Yes, you lost. Take your L. Your opinion is just yours but so many more people disagree with you that it's is just the whining of a sad person. BTW, it's up two more people now.
Always a fun tradition. It seems though that this video omits one part of the fun, the fireworks. We're out in a small boat every year and the fireworks during the 1812 are always spectacular!
@@chrisarseneault5617 The main fireworks do cap off the night. However, over the past few years (10 maybe, skipping the hurricane year) there have been fireworks at the tail end of the 1812 and at the end of the Stars and Stripes Forever. More recently the Stars and Stripes Forever have moved from the barges to the Esplanade.
Russian in composer only, it is very much German in terms of style. Russian classical tends to make subdued use of the brass section with more woodwinds, and tends to use the strings to support massive chords. Germany following the first vieenese school used the strings melodically, the woodwinds countermelodicaly, and what we might term big brass that eventually became the brass ensemble of Sousa and Miller.
SO beautiful; I was there in 1976 for our nation's Bicentennial. Mommy, Gram and I sat on that famed lawn and experienced every spectacular moment. Every time I see this video and watch y'all on TV, I pray for those soldiers and all soldiers, for their safety and blessings. Thank you, Boston Pops, for being back at the Hatch tonight (July 4 2022), for contributing to our collective healing in the wake of the Pandemic. God bless you, ALL.
We are all humans, at the end of a day. Russians are using Robert Schumann's (German) Träumerei piece in loop, in their most sacred wwII memorials (Stalingrad/Volgograd's Hall of Glory, on the cemetery in St.Peterburg, where one million of late civilians is buried and in the Brest Fortress in Belarus). Russian radio announced capitulation of Germany on 5/9/1945 and after that announcement someone in radio let it be played. It probably captured the feeling of relief and tragedy of horrific losses so well, people related to it completely. I will add link to two videos, Stalingrad memorial and of Horowitz playing Träumerei in Moscow with everybody in audience crying.
I’m so sad it won’t be happening this year... it’s been a family tradition since I was young to listen to this song and wait for the breath taking fireworks... perhaps next year...
Tchaikovsky: I want this number to really go out with a BANG. Conductor: OK, so we'll use more kettle drums. Tchaikovsky: Nah, I was thinking something bigger. They used cannons in the war, right? Conductor: Yeah, they did, but we don't have anything to simulate cannons. Tchaikovsky: Then we should use real cannons. Conductor: Tchaikovsky, NYET! Tchaikovsky: TCHAIKOVSKY, DA!
Crowds for this in Boston are enormous...local streets are essentially shut down when everyone leaves at the end...mobs of walking people block every street.
Abertura de 1812 foi escrita em 1882 e não tinha nada a ver com a guerra de 1812 dos americanos Foi tocada pela primeira vez na consagração de uma igreja em Moscou para comemorar o fim da invasão francesa da Rússia pelo exército de Napoleão. Seus temas musicais incluem o hino nacional francês, "La Marseillaise", e um hino russo, bem como tiros de canhão e sinos de igreja. Quando é executada com tiros de canhão em grande escala (usando espaços em branco), a "Abertura de 1812" geralmente exige que os músicos usem tampões de ouvido e uma musica russa que muitos americanos acham que se trata da guerra que ocorreu o objetivo do compositor era divulgar seu pais e conseguiu pois ate os americanos gostam dela embora o compositor nao gostava achava a musica feita para leigos e nao amantes de musica orquestrada
Quite interesting to see all that waving of American flags at the performance of a piece of music that was comisioned to celebrate the defeat of the man that sold the USA half her present territory and inspired quite a substantial bit of her legal system.
Year 1812 Solemn Overture, festival overture in E♭ major, Op. 49, popularly known as the 1812 Overture,[1] is a concert overture written in 1880 by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to commemorate the successful Russian defense against Napoleon's invading Grande Armée in 1812. The overture debuted in Moscow on August 20, 1882,[2] conducted by Ippolit Al'tani under a tent near the then-unfinished Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, which also memorialized the 1812 defense of Russia.[3] Tchaikovsky himself conducted another performance at the dedication of Carnegie Hall in New York City.[4] That was one of the first times a major European composer visited the United States.[5] The 15 minute overture is best known for its climactic volley of cannon fire, ringing chimes, and brass fanfare finale. It has also become a common accompaniment to fireworks displays on the United States' Independence Day.
I can't tell if you're genuinely curious, so I might as well answer if you are. This was for the 4th of July, the day of American Independence. I'm pretty sure the only reason they do this piece is for the cannons, I think. lol
The fireworks nor the cannons were originally written into the piece however, they are all part of the same performance organized by the boston pops. Although you can not hear them in the recording every single church in boston rings its bell as the cannons fire and that is also organized by the pops.
@@LaKellita Then I must not understand the question. You are asking if the fireworks display is part of the song, and I am saying that although the fireworks are not written into the music they are part of the same celebration organized by the Boston Pops that is why it is called the Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular. In my original reply I also included the fact that the church bells and cannons although also not written into the piece are organized by the pops and are intend to be there. Does this answer your question and if so please rephrase it.
No one: Absolutely no on in the last 104 years:.... Me at 14:09: BOOOOOOOZHEEEE TSAR'YAAAAA KHRANIIIIIIII, SIIIIIIIILNIYYY DYEEERZHAAAAAAVNIIIIII, TSAAAAAR'STVUY NA SLAAAAAAAVUUUU....
I guess you don't know what true beautiful music is, I hope you find out when you play this or even when you play a later piece of music as wonderful as this one is :)
