This piece was composed in 1880, the song was commissioned to be about Russia’s victory over Napoleonic France in 1812. Tchaikovsky was persecuted due to being a gay man so when he was asked to compose this piece he decided he wanted it to be to most over the top bombastic piece as a way of mocking Russia, however the canons in the piece are what cemented it’s legacy

I just listened to this masterpiece while working out in the treadmill. It takes you on this ride while you keep on running, and when it got to the end, I felt such a rush of energy I was like go go go! I replayed it from around minute 9 to help me finish the lasts 10 minutes of the workout. If anyone saw what I was listening to they wouldn’t believe me. I was running and feeling good about it. Not the first time I’ve done this. Try it!

So I grew up in Greenville, California, a little podunk town about 2 hours from Reno, Nevada, and played trumpet in concert band. The county seat was about 25 miles away and was home to a community College. Every year, the Reno philharmonic orchestra would come through and put on a concert. My senior year, they got together with the bands from my school and that of the county seat, and played the 1812 overture at the college, complete with 12 gauge shotguns firing blanks into 40 feet of barrels welded together end to end for the fanfare. It was one of the greatest musical experiences of my life.

I love this piece so much:) i remeber playing this piece in my school orchestra. In the concert day, we couldn't really have a cannon bombing in the auditorium, so the teacher of the first violin brought a <fake gun> and fired it in the back stage! It was so loud, everyone was surprised while playing (also bc we never checked how big the gun sound will be😅). It's such a fun memory.

@stewkingjr

My high school had a cop with a 12gauge standing in the doorway to the gym right next to where the band was playing. The door was in an alcove that amplified the gun. Best we could do at the time.

the first major use of bass boost/overdrive in recorded history, from what I can tell. the cannons are so loud that they create a distortion effect in the audio. he might be memed for it a bunch, but Tchaikovsky was doing what the modern producers do, long before it was considered cool, and somehow managed to be more famous than 99% of them to this day. absolute legend.
