Ok... This piece makes me feel like I was in the Chernobyl disaster. I love how moving this is!

Breathtaking

A little faster than what I'm used to, it kind of takes away from the grief and sorrow that's embedded in the song. All the same, a great and powerful piece.

Ah, the Teutonic Knights are the bad guys in this movie. The scene is meant as an indictment of that monstrous pursuit known as "holy war" (what a frickin tautology), and as such is even more powerful today.

I hope I don't ruin anyone's day by saying that as much as I am awestruck by the eerie power of this music,I still can't quite listen to this without thinking of the monks in "Monty Python & the Holy Grail."

This was the music from the great patriotic epic film Alexander Nevsky. Sergei Prokopiev did a great job depicting the horror and desolation brought by the crusading Teutonic Knights.

A wonderful theme,worthy of the mightful Teutonic Knights!!!
Thank you for uploading some of Prokofiev's compositions. I absolutely adore his works. I just wish ALL of his music would get the same attention as The Battle On The Ice nowadays. I do hope it makes some people realize how enjoyable this genre of music really is.
