Played this when I got home from settling a 2 1/2 year legal case I won and squashed the other side. Marched around my room waving the five figure settlement check and laughing to myself like a loon.
The actual performance of this piece is really good because usually other performances of this piece are sometimes too fast or too loud in some parts. But this is just perfect.
In elementary school (75 years ago) my music teacher had a routine to help us remember the title and the composer of many classical pieces..such as Marche Slave. She put words to the music. I.E March Slave: The theme went: "Tchaikovsky. the Russian composer wrote March Slave, to describe the spirit of his people, struggling to win victory" I hope this helps with other pieces you want to remember for many many years as I do.

Finally found the perfect recording. A recording where the oboe or whatever instrument is playing the offbeats isn’t rushing at 4:28 This piece is just absolutely amazing! So powerful, invigorating, and grand! I love it!
Serbo-Russian march (Сербско-русский марш or Cрпско-руски марш) in original title! Tchaikovsky dedicated march to Russian and Serbian brothers who fought together in Serbo-Turkish War (1876-78)!
The first melody 0:13 is based on a serbian song called "Sunce jarko ne sijas jednako/Сунце јарко не сијаш једнако" ((You) Sun are not shining the same) after that there is the second melody 3:56 wich comes from another serbian song called "Rado ide Srbin u vojnike/Радо иде србин у војнике" (Happily goes the/a Serbian to the soldiers). And finally 4:52 there are coming the russians with their Zar-Anthem (during sowijetrussia the anthem was forbidden, therefore, it was replaced with a melody from Galzunov. But now it's played again like Tschaikowsky wrote it. :)
The Big Electron Woom Woum WOW! His music is really good too, dramatic and glorious like Tchaikovsky! Thanks for sharing this with me!! I am quite new to classical music, but so far I love it
you are welcome, i am kind of new to classical music too. I found another good one from Dvorak "Sinfonia dal nuovo mondo", amazing too, if you find a good song comment it here and we can share our findings :). EDIT: I also found these: -Felix Mendelssohn - Violin Concerto in E minor op.64 - Haydn - Symphony no. 45 in F# min (Farewell) - I. Allegro Assai These last two are not epic as the others. Mendelssohn is energic melancholy, very romantic. And Haydn´s music is just a description for the word "excelence"
I just love this piece. It really inspires the inner leader I have deep inside me. Like, I feel empowered, enough to conquer the world and make my enemies tumble upon my greatness.
It's all fun and nice until you have to play this for all state orchestra, with two octave jumps on eighth notes, and incredibly fast double and triple tonguing. This is on the trumpet part.
I know it's a 19th Century war memorial piece, but the part starting at 3:35 makes me think of a 20th Century communist dance, with massive amounts of dancers waving flags or ribbons. Gotta love it.
Tchaikovsky and Freud are the SAME person! Don't believe me? Well then why is it a proven FACT that Freud was in the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles with Sean Patrick Flannery who was in Boondock Saints with Norman Reedus where they killed in self defense members of the Russian mafia who are from Russia which is next to Ukraine where Alexander Rodnyansky is from who produced Jayne Mansfield's car which stars Kevin Bacon whose brother Michael Bacon is a composer which is the same thing Tchaikovsky was. IT ALL MAKES SENSE. X KIRA IS MIKAMI!
mucho se tapan los vientos y suena algo apagado. Ademas, falta mayor sentimiento; en mi opinion puesto que no se puede diferenciar los instrumentos que tocan. Se los digo porque yo la he tocado con la mejor orquesta peruana: ODB
