Overture 1812

Overture 1812

By Pyotr Ilyich TchaikovskyConcert Band

Description

Tchaikovsky's "Overture 1812" is one of the most widely recognizable works in all of music. A bold musical statement, it was composed in 1880 to commemorate the Russian victory over Napoleon's army in 1812. Scored by Michael Story and Robert Smith, this rendition is a perfect fit for the end of the second year of instruction. The characteristic melody builds to a dramatic punctuated conclusion. Stunning! (2:00)
