  • Mlada is an opera-ballet in four acts, composed between 1889 and 1890 by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, to a libretto by Viktor Krylov that was originally employed for an aborted project of the same name from 1872. The cortège is the well-known Procession of the Nobles, literally, Procession of the Princes), and appears in Act 2, Scene 3.

    • @thetooginator153

      Precious Gaffer I was thinking this piece had the heroic feeling of the music used in movies like "Rocky". I just listened to the music from the training montage from "Rocky" and I was listening for the military drums used in this piece but the Rocky score didn't use them.
      I agree with you that this piece definitely evokes nobility, but a more modern use might be to show someone achieving nobility through effort (like a training montage for example).
      Just a thought.

    One measure of a song's greatness is what you FEEL when listening to it. I first heard this one back in 86 on a promotional tape and had no idea of its title. I was conjuring up images of royalty in a parade with confetti thrown all about. It was only months later that I learned the title and I was amazed!

  • @queensnarf
    @queensnarf 4 года назад +150

    When I first played this, I was told by my conductor to envision Russian nobility parading through town with their kids and I've never forgotten it:
    0:31-0:59, 1:22- 2:09 is The King
    1:00-1:20 is The Queen
    2:10-2:32 is Princess Anastasia
    2:33-2:55 is Prince Dmitri
    And so on...
    Now, whenever I listen to this, I think of them!

    While noodling around on the internet several years ago just looking for some decent music for a change, excluding rap, jazz and rock, I landed on a website from NYC that offered Russian recordings, so listened to a bunch of them, which they allowed without restriction(!!!!). I tripped into a disk of the Russian State Wind Orchestra and was absolutely blown away when I heard their performance of this piece!! Risk or not, I absolutely had to have this music. I was pleasantly surprised when the service was outstanding--got my disk in two days and have been burning holes in it ever since. My favorite "activity" is playing this in my auto, and when some kid pulls alongside thumping and throbbing rap music, I crank this up!!!! One day, one kid rolled down the passenger window and said---"Those are some horns, man!" LOL

      Played this in high school 20 years ago: 1st cornet part with trumpet. Your comment is hilarious! That pretty much sums it up!! Total lip destruction! I miss playing real music.

    This is at a much faster tempo than when we played, mainly because our director kept telling us that nobles don't sprint or rush. Still, I like it. Thanks for uploading this. :)

    pure delight. You can see them marching in. What a great processional it would make for the special guests arriving at a church wedding and being escorted up the aisle ... if only one could afford the Dallas Symphony Orchestra or this terrific bunch.
