Khachaturian - Spartacus Suite No. 2 - 1st Movement

[mrschwab123]

i saw phantom regiment's 2007 dci show entitled "Spartacus" and wanted to know the origin of the music it was based off of. found this. It's incredible

[tuxguys]

Hollywood composers owe so much to this guy... and no composer, with the possible exception of Bartok, ever understood "pagan urgency" the way Aram Katchaturian did... listen to "Sabre Dance" or "Dance of the Gaditanae."  Sensual and glorious.

This is a Masterpiece.

[valarmanwe]

Can anyone tell me who wrote this music ?

[TheWickedNorth]

@valarmanwe Khachaturian

[valarmanwe]

@TheWickedNorth. Thanks. 

[osterianio]

@TheWickedNorth I think you would appreciate the Phantom Regiment Drum And Bugle Corp's 2008 show Spartacus. They included this piece and Phantom Regiment has a long history of classical music. This is to get you started: watch?v=3D578wnF_kM

Sencillamente una pieza sublime del drama

[wildstyle2192]

isnt this from the part when drusilla died? the only time i felt sorry for the guy

[ZmajSnoshaj]

The "wall of death" killing machine was very real and far more mechanically complex than in the film.

[DREAMYLEE]

This remarkable soundtrack is legendary & did feature at the very ending of Caligula/ as the titles rolled.

[deliriousTT]

The music is not from a movie. Khacharurian has written the ballet "Spartacus" between 1950 and 1954

[Exverlobter]

Is this from Spartacus or from Caligula. Have both movies the same version of this music?

[Vulfi93]

It's only from Spartacus

[laggie24]

What a beauty music...it deeply covers the soul!

[manstein83]

Que musica tan espectacularmente hermosa !!. La he buscado por tanto tiempo ... infinitas gracias a quien la haya subido !!

[starbrighter]

Best Film Ever Made. People dismiss it because these events really happened and offend most people.

[spaz01112]

so was there really a giant wall of death killing machine?

[rossog]

No thats fake.

[CharlieHarperRulez]

a masterpiece by Aram Khachaturian...

[QuotaSinger]

How old was this Roman at that time

[UnholyDanishMetal]
