kinyodas oof

Underrated comment

Cual es su tónica???????????????

Just like Tschaikovsky himself...

Wow we got a clever one over here

Masterpiece

Are you talking about when they sit at the Player Piano and fall in love... ?

@@timothyj1966 Yes, that's the scene.

It is mentioned in the original novel too, by EM Forster.

Looks like you do not understand music at all

Ray, I see it too. You’re not alone. It’s okay. I have the gift of otherworldly powers also.

I 💯 agree.

Waltz part is in Dmajor and then it hits to B minor

Hello Molly.

And the very sad that he wrote it when he was dieing.. Last music from Tchaikovsky

It's more a comentary about himself. He was living in a disastrous mariage, and he was living in a society where he should wear a mask to occult his homosexuality. For all these reasons he lived a obnoxius life. Btw, we live in a society where people can express himslself no mater his gender, sexuality, race and all this shit, right? RIGHT? ... ... R... right? :/

More like everything changed for the worse since then... if you read Nina Berberova's preface to her biography of Tchaikovsky, she is describing how embarrassed she was about approaching his living relatives (in the 1930's, if I'm not mistaken) about his sexuality. And guess what his sister-in-law said? "At the time there were 8 or 9 gay Grand Dukes, a couple of very conservative politicians and even ministers, and tons of other gay people in high society, and everyone knew about it, so nobody cared really, as long as they didn't get into some huge scandal". The whole law school where he studied was queer as f. They were sometimes a bit too tolerant: once one of the students raped another, and everyone else agreed not to report him to the authorities as it was "a personal matter". Also, unlike in Britain at the time it was only actual sexual acts between men (which aren't that easy to prove) that were criminalized, not something vague like "gross indecency", so gay men didn't have do be worried about their every gesture and facial expression. And people of Tchaikovsky's station were NEVER prosecuted even if everybody knew what they did with other men. It wasn't all doom and gloom. Tchaikovsky was more tormented by his own paranoia and internalized homophobia, then by some actual threat from society or the law.

@@Tatiana_Palii Yes & No I suppose would have to do some research... both he & His brother were Gay... When I said Tortured ... I was referring to a broken heart--- He was in love and had his heart broken.. we can ALL relate to that Straight or Gay.

Have you heard Arensky's Piano Concerto? Composed before Tchaikovsky's 6th, it also has a 5/4 time signature, but in its final movement. It is said that Tchaikovsky was critical of Arensky's use of 5/4, but then he later went and wrote this. Arensky's 5/4 is easier to count sounding more like one-two-three-FOUR-FIVE.

+DavidinCal for me it sounds like 12312 |12123 |12345 | 61212

DavidinCal my music teacher checked notes of this part and it actually goes like this all the time. amazing

To me it sounds like 12345 | 12345, etc.

to me it sounds like you fart

It is quite an odd time signature

thank you lmao

I think most of the uneven bars used around 1900 (e.g. Bartok) are combined common bars in a row.

That's what 5/4 always is, but how clearly you can hear the beat division varies

While playing, counting to 5 is harder then counting to 2 and 3. If a piece with a 5/4 (or 7/8 is also a "common" uncommon messurement) messurement comes up in our orchestra, I almost certainly switch between 2/4 and 3/4 (or 4/8 and 3/8 if it is 7/8) because it is way easier to count.

Kaen Bedehem Was it in The Sims 3, maybe?

Destiny

no thank you.
