It's not my fault man. You should have looked at the album cover more carefully before playing it! Glad you enjoyed though!

All done with 1958 tape recorders using vacuum tubes! Engineer Bob Fine was a genius!

@jacobstallings5214 6 месяцев назад

Awesome reaction! The cannons were funny when you acted like you had been shot out of your seat 😂 keep at em man, never turn down those headphones for the cannons, THEY'RE GLORIOUS

@znotch87 6 месяцев назад

Great reaction getting shot and traumatized. The Cannons were loud but sounded more like rifles....

You should know the history behind this piece to enjoy it. Napoleon invading Russia in september 1812 Battle of Borodino

@egapnala65 6 месяцев назад

There's also a 1712 Overture by PDQ Bach which is worth a listen.

Hi Gidi, Something to play for people who say "Classical music is boring!" RogerC 3/15/24

@johnwilliams575 6 месяцев назад

If you enjoyed this piece (with the exception of the cannon of course!), can I suggest - if you've not already done so - you react to any / all of Tchaik's last 3 symphonies, namely 4, 5, and 6. Personally, I'd find it almost impossible to rank them in order, each of them is so impressive in its own way.

@jimschmitz4848 6 месяцев назад

He's done #4,5 &6.

@fatitankeris6327 6 месяцев назад

But 6 should definitely get a revisit.

@uxvellda1112 6 месяцев назад

Fun fact: Tchaikovsky actually disliked this track himself lol

@Quotenwagnerianer 6 месяцев назад

He disliked a lot of music that he wrote. But in this case I get it. It was written on commission, a certain patriotic style was expected of him. He did not feel very inspired when he wrote it. It's effective, but despite it's popularity it is a pretty mediocre work compared by his usual standards. Especially the transition after the first cannon entrance to the carillon is just awful. Scale, scale, scale,scale,scale,scale... ad nauseam... Incidently Beethoven's most popular work at the time he was alive, the one that put him on the map of the common man, and that had no small part in the 20.000 people showing up at his funeral was "Wellington's Victory", also a piece with artillery and muskets firing, and one that Beethoven did not like very much.

The test of a good 1812 is the sound of the cannon.

@helenav.778 6 месяцев назад

This work was commissioned to commemorate Russia’s defense against Napoleon’s armies in 1812.

@patinho5589 6 месяцев назад

And I oddly associate it with Napoleon as the protagonist.. I think they used it in many movies / a movie alongside the French / napoleon as the protagonist.

@Everymanplease 4 месяца назад

Cold? That's nothin' to what Napoleon found when he stayed too long in Russia in 1812.

@moknorke3317 6 месяцев назад

Yo GIDI! Love the vids. Would be really cool if you could react to Scherzo 3 (Chopin) next. I can highly recommend Pogorelich's interpretation at the 1980 Chopin competition!

@ryanallgaier24 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for making me smile today 😂😂 love your videos

@znotch87 6 месяцев назад

Shame it isn't a version with choir. But I'm sure it was mentioned in an comment on an earlier video that a version with both choir and good cannons is hard to find.

@sjlowder 5 месяцев назад

My first concert, cannons and all. Shit was wild.

@FirstGentleman1 6 месяцев назад

In dem Werk lässt Tchaikowsky die Französische und Russische Nationalhymne gegeneinander kämpfen, am Ende gewinnt, natürlich, die Russische. Coole Idee. Ist eine tolle Overtüre, wie auch Romeo und Julia oder Hamlet.

@bigfrankfraser1391 Месяц назад

me: what instrument do you play 1812 overture: the cannon

@Gill3D 6 месяцев назад

Classy reaction 😁. I once saw a Calvin & Hobbes cartoon in which Calvin was so impressed that classical musicians use cannons as instruments that he decided to investigate classical music more thoroughly. May put in a request? 'Adiemus' by Karl Jenkins?

As a former wachtmeester in the Royal Netherlands Army Artillery, I approve of this message.

@starfoxmccloud64 Месяц назад

You should listen to the 1712 Overture by PDQ Bach! Its like this but better.

@Walter_Arrecis_Letona 6 месяцев назад

Esta enorme pieza musical es mi obertura favorita de todos los tiempos, su poder e intensidad es sublime, por lo que he oido contiene como 3 canciones rusas y el Himno Nacional de Francia, la Marsellesa. Tu reacción fue muy buena y espontánea...jajajaja....Gracias por la reacción y por los subtítulos, me la disfruté mucho, hace algún tiempo te la recomendé en un comentario. Podrías reaccionar a la Obertura Poeta y Aldeano de Franz Von Suppé. Saludos desde Ciudad de Guatemala en Centro América.

@Todd1356 6 месяцев назад

Try listening to the version with Sir George Solti and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra-and don’t turn the volume up!

@bulldogklaus47 5 месяцев назад

well, there is a cannon on the album cover XD

@MisterNashies-mv2my 6 месяцев назад

I highly recommend checking out the 2001 version on Telarc by the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra. The opening string bit is changed to a choir singing a hymn and the cannon fire is digitally recorded so it's very powerful without any distortion.

@fernandogarciamuedano 6 месяцев назад

I like the version by the Berlin Orchestra directed by Herbert Von Karajan

@suemiller2522 6 месяцев назад

This was a strange mix of this; my copy doesn't have the bells so prominent. This and the William Tell Overture were two of my first favorite classical tunes. Glad you enjoyed it.

@TVGUY333 6 месяцев назад

I was a little kid when I first heard this exact album. The album was new at the time, '57 - '58. Preceding the overture was a narrative of the sound that cannon shots made at different distances from the microphone , etc. This piece is what turned me on to classical music and piano lessons. But yeah, the cannons on this album were the best sounding ones on any recording of the 1812 ever, IMO, until I heard them at a military field featuring the 1812 Overture. Howitzers. I suppose the cannon narrative was the caution as to what lies ahead in the actual piece.

@heinedietiker4943 Месяц назад

Tchaikovsky wrote this for a lot of money. He didn't like it himself. And he hated it, when it became a huge success.

@Dracorex13 6 месяцев назад

If you want another piece that starts beautifully and ends triumphantly (not nearly as loud as this), I recommend The Pines of Rome by Respighi.

@jesusalvarez4502 3 месяца назад

Bravo.

@shijoejoseph2011 6 месяцев назад

Riccardo Muti's recording with the Philadelphia Orchestra...the impeccable, unbeatable, incomparable gold standard 1812 Overture due to its precision, clarity, fidelity and definition of everything seamlessly gelled together! Believe you me!

@zackeze3478 Месяц назад

Fun video 👍 Im a Beethoven guy 4 life but when im coming down my street its always this song on full blast lol

@sufuskoba4491 6 месяцев назад

You should check out Brahms Academic Festival Ouverture;)

@jimschmitz4848 6 месяцев назад

Your poor ears! Next you should try a version with chorus:. This also includes historical context ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZrsYD46W1U0.htmlsi=rleWZVNTNLiz3A5A

@pjkorab 6 месяцев назад

To be fair, it IS a terribly mixed recording ^^

@Quotenwagnerianer 6 месяцев назад

A mercury living presence recording terribly mixed? That would be the first. They were the best at their time, for as short lived as the label was. But I agree, it is not the best mixed recording of the piece. That would be Telarc's with Erich Kunzel conducting. That one that came with a warning that it could damage your equipment.

@leonardodelyrarodrigues3752 6 месяцев назад

Heretic! HOW DARE YOU END 4 MONTHS WITHOUT CHOPIN 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭, Could you re-listen to the Chopin Sonata Opus 35 despite Yulianna Avdeeva's performance in 2010?

@diegomicheledefraga3623 5 месяцев назад

Listen to Barber's Adagio
