It's really cool to hear music from the 1800s that wasn't played/synthesized in present times from sheet music. This is basically a Midi recording of the song.
but still the first thing a child of today would recognise is that it is the size of a suitcase and you even need a bag for the sheet containing the music piece - which is also very low on bass :D
@@TheTryingDutchmanno compost is helthy dirt made by vegtables and fruits and plants which stood in a wooden open box for days or weeks exposed to rain and stuff and worms ate trough it
(Listening with headphones) I love how your recording includes all the sweeping bass and low-midrange tones that are such an important part of hearing this instrument, live. Most music box videos on youtube don't convey the depth and resonance of the real thing. Well done !!
@@lohbrothers894 nah its just those types of videos that uses polyphone, kids or people would instantly remember the same sound when u gonna get jumpscared by Freddy, the Las Toreardes. It probably happens for every single polyphon video on YT
I cannot express my full joy in listening to this video over and over again. I always loved to listen to the polyphon, however, never in my life I have dared to think that my favourite anthem ever had survided in its polyphon version. Thank You so much for sharing it. In fact, I would love to buy this one for my collection. Боже, Царя храни!!!!
from the heart of Yorkshireman, thanks ever so much for your wonderful comment, glad to hear that this polyphon disc has brought you so much listening pleasure🙂... across britain polyphon disc's & players can usually be found in bric-a-brac shops and local antique fairs. there are quite a few surviving polyphon disc versions of "GOD save the TSAR".......... often the quest or search for a certain polyphon disc is more pleasurable than just buying one.....those serious in collecting spend hours, weekends, years rummaging through boxes and storerooms to find little music gems........ If you wish to search for the right polyphon disc for you, then recommend visiting websites for antique shops & fairs across UK, USA, Canada & especially Germany. Wishing you all the best товарищ 🙂🙂🙂
This gives me goosebumps. In what comes after death, did the man who owned the box, and he who made it watch as the Romanovs were disposed as? Did they remember the notes of the box playing so joyfully, when Alexei would have been buried) Whenever I look into something of history, I always wonder how it looks back…
thanks for the comment...... history never looks forward, its stumbles trips and dusts itself down...... only the wise look back at the past to measure how much skills and wisdom have been gained..... ⚓
Боже, Царя храни! Сильный, державный, Царствуй на славу, на славу намъ! Царствуй на страхъ врагамъ, Царь православный! Боже, Царя храни! Боже, Царя храни! Сильный, державный, Царствуй на славу, на славу намъ! Царствуй на страхъ врагамъ, Царь православный! Боже, Царя храни!
I was today years old when I realized the 1812 Overture is a duel of national Anthems. I never considered what the Tsarist Russian national anthem was before the Soviets 😳
imagine when our civilization is totally disappeared and some aliens find that piece of metals. they will think this is interesting but can never think this can present something beautiful experience in their life.
I have never heard of a Polython before but this is incredible!. This video makes me want to buy one and the song is beautiful on this machine. Rest in peace Tsar Nicholas ll and his family.
It sounds beautiful and creepy, haunted at the same time 😶😶😶😶. Imagine the machine starts to play in the middle of the night and you are alone at home.
What kind of music box is it playing g on? I have a Regina 15 1/2" disc box that dates to 1886, and came here with my Grandparents from Germany in 1906. I have fairly recent discs for it, The Music of the Night from Phantom and others. It still sounds sweet! Hammer
There is a funny version of that anthem in the "Twelve chairs", a movie by Leonid Gaiday, which's based on a story by Ilya Ilf and Evgeniy Petrov. Well, the film and the story itself are brilliant!
thanks for a great comment & Info..... watched a bit of the movie and added it to a play list... tbh not what i was expecting for an old soviet movie 💖
thanks for a stimulating comment bud...🙂 >> did loads of internet searches with different titles for the Tsar polyphon video before launching it & the top one in all internet searches across different search engines is the one written..... not my intention to mislead but to maximise number of viewers.... hope this answers your valid point 🙂🙂🙂
@@Montys_Music_Jamboree all good! Appreciate you taking it in the spirit intended. I clicked on the vid thinking “Wow! That kind of tech was around in the 1830s?!” and then did a bit more digging. Still a very cool video.
@@TheLarkResending brilliant bud... am happy and well impressed that you took the time to research polyphons.... the channel or "Jamboree" was invented to inspire folks to discover differing music styles and more importantly, to find what music styles, genres, tastes float their boats... 🙂🙂🙂

Incredible! How does it work, exactly? I notice that it went around twice. And that both verses seemed identical except for one slight section (but that could have just been me missing that part the first time). Was it normal for these records to play two verses exactly? And was there a way to change the tempo? Could you have played something as complex as, say, “Fur Elise” on a polyphone, which is not just a repetition of simplistic (albeit, beautiful) verses? Also, when was this precise machine made, and when were its records made? I am so curious, and thank you for allowing us to listen to this piece of history!
WoW, thanks for your comment and cavalcade of curiosity....... just fond of victorian era mechanical resonance or twang that the spring steel comb makes..... i marvel at such relative simplicity of motion that inspired the creation of the record player in the 1890's.........🍺🍺🍺
Что выстоит?) все предполагаемые царьки в Америке Россию хаят, да не хотят лететь и стото менять и стараться помочь. Нет больше никакой Империи и Императора. Даже возращение Коммунизма и то не призрачно. За несколько десятков лет многое поменяется и будет пересмотрено. Если люди не такие тупые, как они говорят.
@@New_frisk the last tsar (tsar Nicolas the 2nd) was abdicated in 1917 and killed in 1918 (most likely murdered due to the USSR coming to power) along with the monarchy being abolished so were many traditions and legends. so yes, the Russian empire is a 'lost' civilization.
@@New_frisk bro like all of Russian tradition and culture was eradicated when the soviets fully took control... it's a modern hellhole as is. There was some beauty to the country, some astonishment pre '17.
@@amaritineenthusiast Everything as a matter of fact. I like to keep the hate grindset strong. I wake up an hour earlier to have extra time to hate and spread negativity and hopefully ruin someone's enjoymeny of something. And I am also absolutely right as you could observe for yourself.
Must have been absolutely mesmerizing if you heard this when the device was made. We are so desensitized to recorded music. And this is already an exceptional specimen of it.
