	Classical Net - Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture
		Though far from Tchaikovsky's most important or impressive work, the "1812 Overture" is undoubtedly his best known piece.
		In his own words, he found it "very loud and noisy." The commission was to mark the 1882 Moscow Exhibition, and specifically the consecration of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior which was built there to give thanks for the Russian victory during the Napoleonic Wars.
		The enthusiasm was due in no small part to the concert's featuring the "1812 Overture." The musical program featured booming cannons, ringing church bells, patriotic sing-a-longs, and a grand fireworks finale.

	"1812 Overture". Op. 49 - Tchaikovsky
		Tchaikovsky’s fantasia or overture was to be performed in the public square before the cathedral by a colossal orchestra, the big drums to be replaced by salvos of artillery." The composition was finished in 1880, but no account is left of the proposed startling performance, which reminds one of the Gilmore Jubilee achievements.
		The main section of the overture follows, representing the battle of Borodino, in which the Russian National Hymn intermingles with the "Marseillaise" amid peals of artillery.
		The "Overture Triomphale" by Tchaikovsky, one of his earlier works, foreshadows his "1812" overture by reason of his use of the Danish National Hymn, much in the same manner as he has treated the "Marseillaise" in the "1812."

		None of Beethoven's overtures was written in 1812 (according to the New Grove dictionary, the closest is the Fidelio overture of 1814).

		In 1990 I had never given any thought to the serpent; it was not until 1994, when the Boston Symphony was planning to play the newly discovered "Messe solennelle" of Hector Berlioz, that I saw the piece required a serpent and I set about to be the person to play that part.
		Cliff Bevan's arrangement of the "1812 Overture" was composed in the main for eight solo serpent parts.
		It is my hope that in sharing this performance of his arrangement of the "1812 Overture" that listeners will gain a greater appreciation for the capabilities of the serpent and appreciate, as well, one of the instrument's greatest exponents, Clifford Bevan.

		For the dedication ceremony for the Church of Christ the Savior in Moscow, Chaikovsky wrote the 1812 Overture.
		Another theme used in the early part of the overture is the initial notes of the French national anthem The Marseillaise which begins "Allons enfants de la patrie, le jour de gloire est arrivé!"

		These selections are taken from a recording of the 1812 Overture, opus 49, conducted by Antal Dorati, recorded by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra and the National Symphony Orchestra, Washington, DC, produced by London records, 1975, 1978.

		Ormandy approaches the 1812 and Marche Slave in a careful manner, not interpreting the piece too much, which some may find bland.
		Despite this safe approach, Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra achieve a nice balance of sound, and this recording is a good 1812, though not as thundrously triumphant as it could be.
		But hey, the 1812 is the 1812, and this is a great album to have if you want a good version of that piece.

		The Dallas Symphony Chorus sounds rich and remarkablly Russian in the stunning choral version of the "1812 Overture," while the orchestra's spirited performance and superb brass sound make this a preferred recording of this favorite war horse.
		Composed for the coronation of Czar Alexander III in 1883, it sketches the history of Moscow - and Russian - up to that point and proclaims the destiny of the Russian throne to be the ruler and protector of all the Christian Slavic nations.
		Also included on the disc are a rarely performed Coronation Canata written for Alexander III of Russia in 1883, and a suite arranged by Litton of some of the composer's best-loved melodies from the "Sleeping Beauty" ballet.

		The music illuminates the essence of the tale, its harmonic subtlety used to build and resolve tension, while the forceful irregular rhythms of the street music point ahead to Stravinsky and beyond.
		The Cathedral (demolished in the 1917 Revulution) was itself bullt to commemorate the Russian defeat of Napoleonic invasion in the events of 1812, and the Overture with its cannon and bell-tolling was intended for open-air celebration.
		A sombre mood is set at the outset by eight solo cellos intoning the theme of a Russian hymn, 'God preserve Thy people', which returns in full instrumental panoply near the end.

		Thanks to a suggestion by publicist Tim Zumwalt - and some paperwork - maestro David Ramadanoff and his musicians will have Tchkaikowsky's "1812 Overture" culminate with 17 shots from five honest-to-goodness cannons near the end of the July 4 pops concert.
		It's not the first time Ramadanoff has been associated with a ballistics-based "1812 Overture," said Zumwalt.
		When the conductor was an assistant with the San Francisco Symphony, the overture was featured at a Concord Pavilion concert.
