ITS ETCHED IN MY BONES I sat for hours as kid as this went on the TV had nothing else, the radio had nothing else...we used to ha e respect for our government and the POTUS was number 1...the truth is quite horrible but best we learn.
I may catch flack for this.. but I absolutely love the speed and tempo that the US Military band is playing this piece to. It’s perfect for marching, and really makes it an “American Version” that stands out from the slow style tempo the British Military play to.
I love both versions; both portray unimaginable grief, but focus differently on the impact of the deceased. When I hear this, I think of the power that was stripped from the incumbent President, and how much of a shame it was, though when I hear the British version I feel it more reflects on HM's life.
I don’t think it’s a musical choice. I believe in American state funeral processions they march at the normal quick time (100 beats per minute) whereas if you listened to what the officers were calling on the day of Her late Majesty’s funeral procession, they were at slow march which by my count is 75 bpm.
Completely agree! I adored the marches for the late great HM QEII funeral, but can't help but think of what perfection it would have been if they played this version of Chopin. For me, the two versions simply don't compare.
Until 1959, the official manual for US Army executions (DA PAM 27-4) included a requirement for a live band to play this march as part of the proceedings.
This happened eight days before my tenth birthday - a vividly horrifying recollection. This brings it all back. What a waste! One thing I have always been amazed at is the one sailor trailing the coffin, carrying the flag the entire way. That must have taken spectacular will power and strength.
Although I did not then know it was composed by Chopin, I was familiar with the tune of the "Funeral March" from cartoons where it was used to mock the imminent demise of some cartoon character. The first time I heard it used in an actual funeral was on November 25, 1963 (I was 15 years old) when it was a prominent feature of JFK's televised funeral procession. I would never again regard it with comic overtones.
Wow, me & my cat were just watching this short JFK's SOMBER Chopin Funeral March procession music & it always keeps my cat's ears up like an owl 🦉Very sad & yet made me held my cat to my face & cried. (BOOHOO)☹☹😾😾😿😿
I still 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 feel it...I WAS 3!!! Sat in front of the TV IN OHIO my mom tried to explain and she cried...as I'd mention it later in the day other adults cried...I stopped asking or saying but everyone was sad...i was a kid and I could tell...NEVVVERRR again has that occured....BUT THEY KEEP IT UP, GONNA FAFO!!!
it might be their own, by that I mean because of the cadence of the paces per minute that they are required to march to, wait until Monday when the queen is buried you will see a slower cadence!
@@tomaszkwiecien275 the piece is a part of a sonata technically, it's just nicknamed funeral march. I believe chopin didn't nickname most of his pieces.
@@StillGrandmasBaby To understand my comment, you'd have to know the dictionary definition of the word " almost " and since you don't, then even this comment is well above your education level apparently.
Being a child I spent much of the weekend wondering: 1) where’s the cartoons? 2) why do they keep playing this same tune? Of course they didn’t but to me then it all seemed the same.
This is the biggest deference between US and British marching bands. British marching tempo is traditionally slower; US field band tempo sounds odd to those more accustomed to an old world March tempo.

I had the exact same thoughts. I don't really know which one I prefer. They both have their "place" I guess.

maybe thats why its actually called the funeral "march"

Madre mía
And then to depart after the execution playing "a lively air".
Ah, I'm not crazy. I thought so.
Why did they excute soldiers

Dang you were born in 1948
Gosh!!, Have you served in Vietnam?.
I always thought the death march was a beautiful piece of music regardless how it is performed! Beautifully haunting!
Hearing that horse whine at 1:28 always makes me shiver, I don’t know why
This music gives me consolation especially now I'm in this tragic situation.
01:19 - 01:49 is just brilliant. Its just so so sorrowful 😢 it's still hard to contain my emotions even after so many times hearing it
0:31 black soldier among those leading procession
Is that a problem?
beautiful piece
R.I.P John F. Kennedy (1917-63), It was a Tragic Event that Kennedy Was Assassinated in 1963😢🇺🇸
This sample has potencial
Thought the same but it‘s too disrespectful 😭
LOL
Yeah

I can't believe it's 60 years since we lost the greatest president John f Kennedy
the greatest president ??? please
I can easily get a student loan in states with Kennedy surname ....

So was I. Still remember little John saluting.
Allah rahmet eylesin
Not muslim
no

@Skummar Köphunchuksohn I know but Kennedy wasn’t muslim
@@ade58158 Both Muslims _and_ Christians use the word "Allah" for God. Saying it's only for Muslims is like saying Бог is only for Russian Pagans
Its scary that most of these men would meet the same fate in Vietnam years later 1:41
The military's version of that song is beautiful here.
Does anyone know what this version of Chopin's march is called? I would like to find it in mp3

@@j2msu341 The State Funeral of HM Queen Elizabeth II - Marche funèbre - Chopin: ua-cam.com/video/pT9j4mjPSrw/v-deo.html
Sonata h-moll op. 58".
At least his killers were nice enough to give him a parade the day they killed him with a state funeral.
Facts
Funeral march fredrick chopin
That funeral music did march at soviet or russian dictator burial
This is the best march or chopin 100.000%
It is a march of polish composer (early XIX century). Anyway he doesn't like russian empire.

Great video! Do you mind if I use this in a video about the assassination?
Of course, you can use 😊
@@HeliusOlympian thank you so much! I’ll make sure to give you credit!
......You just HAD to make me remember I was born on the 44th anniversary of former President Kennedy's assassination....
Its 22 November 2024 its been 71 years.

This is the funeral march of Chopin! Be respectful!
@@mike_chr_ Yes you are right
Was imperial march based off of funeral march?
Funeral march???????

Because of a scratched ear? You've GOT to be kidding me! That's almost an insult to this video!

I was 13 at the time and have seen how things have gone ever since and I totally agree with you.
Did yall ever know this march was polish

👕👍 *The music was played too fast!* 😳
👖
It was in the perfect tempo.
This is the biggest deference between US and British marching bands.
British marching tempo is traditionally slower; US field band tempo sounds odd to those more accustomed to an old world March tempo.
*They were in a hurry to finish the funeral in time!*
Yes piano version is slow
@@neptune8590 i think you mean this tempo is fast as the piano sonata tempo is what it should be
Bro imagin
You assassinate jfk
Then you hear this specific music heard in this vid

I would not be able to keep a straight face with that tune.
