    Learn how to play 1812 Overture by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky on piano with this Synthesia piano tutorial! Please enjoy!
    The #1812Overture is a work by Pyotr Ilyich #Tchaikovsky, written to mark the occasion of the Russian defense, who staved off Napoleon's Grande Armée in 1812. The full name of the work is "The Year 1812 Solemn Overture", and since its premiere in the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow, 1882, it has become one of the most well-known and loved pieces in the Western classical canon. Aside from its sweeping melodies and joyous fanfares, the 1812 Overture is perhaps best known for the cannon fire, which is indicated in the score as a bass clef note with four "f"s (fortissississimo). This amazing piano arrangement of Tchaikovsky's incredible 1812 Overture takes all of these elements (cannon fire included!) and places them in the two hands of a pianist. You will LOVE this incredible arrangement!
    This piano arrangement of 1812 Overture is fantastic to play! You can learn it with our #SheetMusicBoss Synthesia #PianoTutorial, or from our official Sheet Music Boss sheet music at the top of the description!

    Creating a piano arrangement of the ENTIRE 1812 Overture was an _enormous,_ multi-day project to undertake and took quite a while! It's such a classic that it needed a great deal of fine-tuning to ensure every piano note sounded right, getting the phrasing brought out, making sure the right notes were emphasised and others weren't, and getting the tempo just inside that sweet spot where it slows down and holds back juuuuust the right way to make the next big chord *land*. I listened over and over as I was finishing the project to make sure I was happy with everything.
    This was a real labour of love for Samuel and me, and we hope you enjoy it! We'd be thrilled if you had a look at the sheet music too, which we put a lot of craft and care into making. You can find it here: gumroad.com/l/SrrcT
    Thank you and please enjoy! -Andrew

    A classical piece that contains:
    2 National Anthems
    At least 1 March
    Multiple folk songs
    A Hymn
    Original composition parts
    All in 15 minutes and change
    And needs both church bells and artillery to be played in its fullest form.

    • @senorsiro3748
      @senorsiro3748 4 года назад +30

      A dead meme Of the top of my head, there’s U Vorot, Vorot. The one that’s also a Hymn is the Russian melody for the Troparion of the Holy Cross (which is the opening of the song).
      The French National Anthem stands out pretty clearly as it is still their anthem today, and towards the end, is the Russian Empire’s National Anthem.
      As for the names of the other folk songs sprinkled through the piece, I don’t recall, but this is something Tchaikovsky did a lot of.

    Genuinely one of my favorite compositions of all time. The story behind it is amazing, too. It’s a shame that Tchaikovsky didn’t like it.

    The 1812 always gives me goosebumps, I play viola in an amateur orchestra and have been fortunate to play it three times in concert, with a bass drum not cannon unfortunately, the hymn at the start is awesome to play.

    Judging by your other videos, it's just a coincidence, but I can't help but be amused by the colors of the hands. During the Napoleonic Wars, Russian soldiers wore green and French soldiers wore blue. On most maps, east is to the right and west is to the left. And here we have a green (Russian) right (eastern) hand and a blue (French) left (western) hand.

    I love how this piece symbolizes the struggle between the French and the Russians; that's why it includes La Marseilleise's theme
    It's a really interesting concept: opposing two different themes "fighting" each other
    It reminds me of one of the Bucciarati's themes, Furious Fight, which includes both Bucciarati's and Diavolo's theme
    So...
    Could you please do a tutorial for "Furious Fight" from Jojo's Bizzarre Adventure? 👀

    8:40 cool how composer can speed up the melody and have a new creation, And gotta love those whole tones
    9:17 OK NOW WE'RE GETTING SOMEWHERE, the right hand intervals/harmonies are SUPERB. All this time ive been thinking you need intervals to support the main melody alone, I WAS WRONG, Tchaikovsky used the intervals to make A SECOND MELODY. Thats so crazy and interesting
    10:12 wow listen to the left hand notes ( the harmonies, i know its repetitive)
    10:37 im not trying to compare and contrast composers, but we got a real chopin moment
