[NikiDerpette]

[Gordontrek]

Beautiful music!

[marleyfan008]

[cece6145]

[AriClark93]

When I first heard I'd have to study this for the leaving cert I was gonna kill myself, but after hearing all those canons and rushed scales I love classical music :D

[FranMusicNotes]

anyone has the link from a cd that have this piecE?

[mereobservation]

Anyone else think Tchaikovsky was kind of hot (aside from being so talented!)?

[henripche]

@mereobservation I concur, for what it's worth. Handsome man in his day. And now fled is his beauty and the fruits of his genius remain.

[evanescentpv]

@mereobservation he had an interesting personal life too

[DeeDeeFierro]

@mereobservation hahaha ...any man who can create this beauty... is definitely hot!!

[anthony625]

@mereobservation aside from concealing his homosexuality by being married to a woman, he's definitely got that Romantic period swag goin on. #19th century freshness

This has got to be one of my favorite pieces of all time.

Thank you for Posting. I try not to judge composers on their sound of pretty or dark tones, yet I almost thought Tchaikovsky was a pretty boy composer. Hell what do I konw. I'm just an American consumer right?

[henripche]

@daSaboriGuitars Well, the US are still a pretty cultured country (it differs from place to place and person to person I guess), although Reagan's quest to kill the American soul has gone a long way...

[watutman]

@henripche Reagan's quest to kill the American soul? That's the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard!

[henripche]

@watutman Yes I suppose that comment was a bit out of place for this apolitical video. I was referring to the erosion of the American welfare state that began under his watch (although the people behind the screens were probably calling the shots).

[harrynchuck]

I saw the ballet of Romeo and Juliet last year at the National Ballet of Canada. Simply splendid.

[Irishgirll93]

[DoranOwns92]

@Irishgirll93

This is the best out of the 3, by FAR :D and no we don't haha!

[Zapalta]

One of my favorite pieces by one of my favorite composers (tied with Bach and Beethoven) <3333

[Jessymandias]

this song really makes me miss playing in an orchestra. [I'm a bassoon player]

Sitting right in the thick of it, listening to the clairinets between around 1:00 to 2:00 was so splendid.

[roco501]

Great piece, espesaly the climax of the development!

^^ get to study it for my leaving cert this year :D ( leaving cert = Irish S.A.Ts)

[Jessymandias]

good luck Roco!

[roco501]

Cheers :P

[stylestar76]

fantastic

[PhilliesFan10]

Absolutely fantastic. The romantic era is one of my favorites. I love how it took all that made the classic period beautiful and elegant and just built on that to bring things never before found in music.

[marcopiega]

[mbananawork]

oh my! So beautiful!!

[jeffreyclaudekevin]
