Haunting. I sat glued to the TV all day and even not a royalist, shed a silent tear as the queen's coffin was lowered. As a former British colony, we still have many laws and dress codes inherited by the British Empire and I absolutely love the pomp and circumstance.
I prefer this even to Beethoven's. It puts into music the pangs of grief in a way unrivaled. I was in London and Windsor to hear both for Her Majesty's funeral.
The Royal commentators talked through several bars of the London drill which was distracting for us TV viewers. However, as the coffin proceeded along the long walk to Windsor they became absolutely silent. The beat of the drums was magnificent. Tremulous...
When I was in the orchestra, we played this march much slower, always motionless. Maybe at such a slow pace it would be difficult to march to the beat.
The old Mr. Chopin's funeral tune has brighter side too. One of our singing poets wrote a rather witty text to the tune and performed it himself to his own accompaniment on an accoustic guitar. The title of his song, that gained some popularity, is THE LAST SERVICE, and it tells a story of a dead guy lying within dry and well isolated coffin. The coffin is being carried by male family members, and followed by mourning wife. As the weather is a bit bad, and the way to go - long, the latter 'shall surely get cold'. Death is another side of life, so why not face it humorously?... The poet, by the way, has been dead since. He had a deadly inclination to write dead-related texts, to mention only his pean for a mortuary (that room where corpses await dissecting, or autopsy). According to him, most pleasant time there is before dawn, with all the corpses looking at least not bad. Some corpses even SMILE (except for those beheaded, or having no heads at all). This other story ends with a rather unpleasant message to the reader or listener: you will soon experience the mortuary yourself! 😊☠️👻♍

Difference between your school band and these musicians are countless. They don't get months to practice, they're playing near enough every other day, different marches each time.
@@caracowman3954 they really do. Look it up. Few years back there was a documentary where they were talking about preparations for the Queen's birthday party in the whole process that the guardsman go through and they were talking about how you're all sweaty and whatnot afterwards and from marching through the horse poop you have to get undressed get out of the sweaty clothes clean your boots pretty much immediately than get your shirt and what not to the laundry and the rest of the dress uniform cleaned up and stored
In fact, it was, in an orchestrated version. Not wished for by the dying Chopin, though. He never intended this piece to be a funeral march, it's a movement of his 2nd Sonata. He wished for Mozart's Requiem and got it. He was quoted from his deathbed: "Play Mozart and I will hear you!" They had trouble making it possible, the priests didn't approve (female voices were not permitted to sing in Cath. Churches in those days in France), but they managed in the end. Some of Chopins own music was played because some of his friends couldn't resist.
And of course everyone is holding a smartphone. I get that it is a big event but seems distasteful. Yes. It is in tv and internet anyway but I see a difference

@@Niklas.the.13th. 1. No, it has nothing to do with the Empire. The actions carried out by the government of a constitutional monarchy rarely reflect the thoughts and opinions of the monarch, and even when they do, the monarch would never express their opinion. It's bizarre to assume that a funeral regarding the monarch of these nations has anything to do with the Empire. The Commonwealth Realms (members of the Commonwealth that retain the monarchy) do so purely by choice and not by any form of authoritarian connection to the United Kingdom. The territories of the United Kingdom retain status as British subjects also by choice---see the referendum results in the Falklands, for instance. There is no British Empire in the modern day---there is only a conglomeration of nations with shared histories that DECIDE to retain a connection even today.

That's just bizarre. Estimates range wildly, so I'm not going to quote tourist money from the Monarchy or anything, but even without that statistical evidence, it's pretty obvious that the Monarchy has had a profound effect on British culture---ask an American what the first thing they think of when they think of Britain and a large amount will say something regarding the monarchy. I believe it's what brought the whole culture of manners and tea and whatnot (though a large simplification of what British culture entails, at least it's not negative) to the world stage. It avoids a wholly negative view of Britain on the world stage. Anyhow, royal figures have had a great impact on the people's culture with their actions, words, and whatnot. 4. Yes. It is entirely reasonable to be mad when someone with a presumably subpar education regarding history, government, and politics makes a bold and unreasonable claim, is questioned on it, then refuses to elaborate anything beyond a few sentences that only further confusion. That's ridiculous.

The music is so sacred...and the bells of the Big Ben amplify this. You really feel sorrow but, at the same time, glory and majesty.
If it was played by piano, sadness is amplified.
The Chopin Funeral March was also played during JFK's funeral procession in 1963.
Yes they did. It seemed to me that they played it forever…I really don’t directly remember anything except Chopin and the muffled drums. But they seemed to go on and on. We only had two channels on our TV so whichever channel you went to there was the drums

The speed is really fast and changes the whole character of the piece.
Yes, but it still sounds mournful, and being played by a live marching band makes it very visceral I think.
i’m thinking that they’ve had to have practiced this piece for years, just in case. it was definitely intentional
The USA played it at JFK's funeral slower
Exactly very too fast. La rapidité fait perdre le ton de la cérémonie.
D’autant plus que leur pas n’est pas adapté au rythme. Dommage.
It's fast because the band has to march hence the music's tempo should be fast as well.
All I can imagine is going back in time and showing this future tense to Chopin and showing him the impact he had on modern society
Still can't believe she's gone... May her spirit be with God.
I have never heard the whole funeral March besides the obvious part it’s a beautiful piece
This isn't the whole piece. It is much longer.
My condolences to the British from America. It’s the least I can do after you played Star Spangled Banner for us the day after 9/11.

so sad to watch again, I sat all day on the day to watch it live.
I prefer this even to Beethoven's. It puts into music the pangs of grief in a way unrivaled. I was in London and Windsor to hear both for Her Majesty's funeral.
Played during JFK, Brezhnev, queen Elizabeth funerals. Simply the most influential march ever composed by the french-polish compositeur

What is surprising to me, is that these musicians need lyres for the sheet music. We memorized everything we played in high school/university band.
They don't need them it is just part of the show and pageantry ,they could play with their eyes shut,all brilliant musicians.
Idiot it wasn’t expected
These bandsmen play hundreds of marches in a different order every time, and they are kept to a far greater standard than your school band.
Difference between your school band and these musicians are countless. They don't get months to practice, they're playing near enough every other day, different marches each time.
