    Of all of the music I played in band somehow this simple, repetitive piece stands out. Years later I can still hum it from memory and it gets it stuck in my head from time to time. What a great piece of music that was a joy to play

      El Jefe the 3/4 measures are written in pairings, so it could feel like cut time if the two beats were triplets

    The name is wrong. This is music written by Shostakovich for the film "the First echelon". Unfortunately this error is widespread on the Internet.

    • @I.amthatrealJuan
      @I.amthatrealJuan 7 років тому +18

      Yuzh No, it's correct. The original was indeed a musical piece for that movie but then Shostakovich reworked the piece and orchestration to be included in the Suite for Variety Orchestra. What is a very common mistake is that this is titled as a part of Jazz Suite no. 2 which is an entirely different piece. Blame the wrong credits given by the hit Stanley Kubrick movie "Eyes Wide Shut" for that.
