Been listening to this again. Great brass parts. It would be a blast to play this arrangement.

You can't see what's in the cart. One account I've read says it was full of dead bodies- but you didn't make that known in 19th-century Russia. This movement always sounded a bit sinister to me- when I read that I knew why.bloke wrote: Sun Apr 18, 2021 4:47 pm Bydlo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_cont ... e=emb_logo

makes perfect sense...The chords are down in the "grind" (non-harmonic, so even major and minor chords will clash, just as they do in tuba ensembles) octave.Heavy_Metal wrote: Sun Apr 18, 2021 7:04 pmYou can't see what's in the cart.

The Debussy Prelude is pretty spectacular as well.

Some of Wood's orchestration appears in this performance, which is sort of unique. Slatkin/BBC Proms:
