    Percussionist- 'Yep.'
    Friend- 'What do you play?'

      I first became interested in classical music through Tom and Jerry and looney tunes when I was tiny. I’ve listened to this type of music on and off for the following 30 years. Tears roll sometimes especially towards the end of this piece. Incredible stuff.

    It is so much to the credit of the great Halle orchestra and Mark Elder that it sounds as if they were playing it for the first time - such exuberant fun!
    I also think the organ player deserves a medal - with all those explosions going off right behind him and still playing on...!

    The best *timed* explosions I've heard in any performance of this piece (and sound-managed too). It _needs_ explosions, but attempts with real cannon are almost always not quite on time, and also they knock the recording equipment off for half a second or so. This one's the best compromise I've found so far.

    I love this more than anything - I've played it at least 50 times and I'm still not sick of it - but story goes that PIT actually hated 1812 himself. He was commission to compose 'an overture' by Nikolai Rubinstein in 1876 for the opening of Moscow Cathedral in 1880. The cathedral wasn't finished until 1882, by which time Rubinstein was dead. He wasn't actually persuaded to write the piece until 1880. Quote PIT: "it is without love and feeling." So this is what happens when he doesn't try.

    Theres nothing like the 1812 to yank a mans soul from his body. Raise to the ceiling.... Let his little leg legs hang there doing the merry dance.....And just at the time you know its about to end...Boom,Bang,Bang those cannons rocket right through the heart and splattered against the walls, your mind falls to your those merry dancing feet....Still as elastic.... Its all over when all the remaining pieces snap back into the flesh....And you know, you just know.....You just know where you been to others cant explain it for you!

    We played this classic composition in our high school symphonic band, some fifty-plus years ago. I played trombone, and was also one of the cannoneers for the finale.
    We used 12 guage double barreled shotguns, with the pellets removed. I can't imagine doing that in a high school auditorium, in this day and age. The health and safety liabilities alone, not to mention the possible litigation exposure it would create, are staggering.
    Still, it always warms my heart when I hear it. Takes me back to a time when the world in some respects, was a much better place. And, as a people we strove to be a better human race. Funny how music has a way of doing that.
