Tchaikovsky - Eugene Onegin (Polonaise) 

Just don't do the washing up if you have a house facing the neighbourhood. Rossini is even more dangerous...

This might be the most amazing RU-vid comment of all time…

😂😂😂😂😂

agreed.

Totally agree with you 100%

Ditto!

Beethoven: am I joke to you?

​@@iknowexactlywhoyouare8701 ?

Huh. I'd only heard it from an unrelated performance that they stuck it into. That's... kina dark, not gonna lie.

The great Onegin deserved nothing less.

whats his best

@@parisford2020 That's very much a personal choice. For a romantic piece I think his Romeo & Juliet Fantasy Overture is great.

​@@parisford2020 if you listen to his ballet suites, his violin concerto, 1st piano concerto or last 3 symphonies you'll get an idea of why he was so great

Me too, chapter 4, going to 5 now

Same 😅

me three!

Me too!

Same!

Awesome!!!!!

Alexander Kish Jr was it tough? all I can offer was that it might’ve been fast as heck

Not a song

Frédérique Chantal Really, really strictly speaking, it's Чайковский.

I like Czajkowski :)

The reason there is so much leeway and confusion with Russian names is that the Russian language does not actually use the Latin alphabet as English does. Russian is written in the Cyrillic alphabet, therefore translated names are spelled many different ways. And yes, Tchaikovsky was famously gay, and troubled & tormented in mind and spirit, as so many great artists are. He committed suicide by drinking water contaminated with typhoid, if I remember correctly. Such as sad and romantic life he lived!

English uses Latin alphabet . Numbers are Arabic :-)

SwirlyDude Fan - they actually don't know for sure if he committed suicide although it's possible... however they do know he attempted suicide at one point in his life

But this sounds nothing like Chopin's polonaises. (Plus, Tchaikovsky was pretty averse to Chopin's music.)

Perhaps he was inspired by the other great master of the polonaise, W. Al Yancovitch

Polonaises were played on aristocratic balls (including Tsarist ones) and still are played on Vienna balls.

Our modern life is better in many ways, with advanced medicine, dentistry, and so forth. But oh, we have lost so much splendor, grace, and romance in modern times!

And my birthday too! Happy to have such illustrious birthday buddies. My 2 favorite composers, lucky me.☺️

Si, grazie mille, Tchaikovsky!!

LOL

Must remember this the next time I rob a bank!

I would never rob a bank, but yes. If that makes sense. The music is mad. Wonderful!

This is music from Eugene Onegin

I came here because of bulgakov's the master and margarita

I came here because of Mijail Bulgakov, Master i Margerita 😊

I came because of the Pushkin ball, does that count?

Tchaikovsky came to America to premier Carnegie Hall

Master and Margarita, Chapter 4

I agree, and it could be a bit more "booming", if you know what I mean. Regardless, though, it's a beautiful and exciting piece of music.

The Tchaikovskys were of Polish decent.

@@jakelucas5944 I have: Pyotr (Peter) Ilyich Tchaikovsky was born on May 7, 1840, in Votkinsk, Vyatka region, Russia. He was the second of six children (five brothers and one sister). His father, named Ilya Chaikovsky, was a mining business executive in Votkinsk. His father's ancestors were from Ukraine and Poland. His mother, named Aleksandra Assier, was of Russian and French ancestry.

Católico por Amor Muito bom saber que o Brasil não está totalmente perdido, mais um brasileiro que gosta de música clássica.

It comes close to the Bolshoi Theatre Orch. / Alexander Vedernikov

Юджин и Евгений - одно и то же имя. это просто локализация, хотя да, звучит дебильно. Юджин Онегин🤣

@@stvk99 Ну локализация локализацией, а всё-таки имена людей даются при рождении не переводчиками. Имена Иван и Джон тоже имеют родственные связи между собой, однако заграницей не говорят Джон Грозный, а у нас не говорят Иван Траволта. Получается если переводятся наши имена, то точно также мы должны локализовывать имена зарубежных личностей. Как вам Михаил Джексон и Николай Кейдж?) Вы ведь очень правильно подметили, что Юджин Онегин звучит ну как минимум просто нелепо. Так почему не оставить настоящий и единственно правильный вариант имени Евгений, имени, которое дал персонажу его создатель?

@@user-kn4zz9yq9n в целом соглашусь с вами. возможно надо было локализовать просто "Онегин", как например зарубежная экранизация конца 90-х. раз уж русские имена такие сложные для них)

@@stvk99 да, это было бы лучше. По крайней мере такое название не будет никого смущать
