17 Tchaikovsky – Slavic March.....The Marche Slav (French pronunciation: [maʁʃ(ə) slav]) in B-flat minor, Op. 31, is an orchestral tone poem by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky published in 1876. It was written to celebrate Russia’s intervention in the Serbian-Ottoman War.
It certainly sounds Russian or Slavic. Tchaikovsky wrote some truly beautiful music.
This comment on the video cracked me up: I had to explain to my mother a simple truth. If you aren't listening to Tchaikovsky with the volume all the way up then you aren't listening to it right. Whether or not she heard me over the music, I do not know.
My BFF and I used to clean house while playing Tchaikovsky, and yes the volume was turned all the way up. We're both partial to the '1812 Overture', which the piece you posted seems to have evolved into.
Felix Mendelsohn did the same thing with the Reformation Symphony, using variations on A Mighty Fortress Is Our God". (Which, BTW, Was originally an old drinking song.)
FTA: But this time, they will have no choice but to cheat on such a grand scale, that everyone with a heartbeat and temperature around 98.6 will see it. This time, they must and will be exposed and stopped.
33 Biden’s Destroying the Economy. Is It Intentional?
FTA: Are these policies intentional or simply completely misguided? I don’t know. But does it matter? Either way, our country is in grave peril.
If these policies were just misguided, you'd think once in awhile he'd get something right. The odds just don't run that he'd do the wrong thing every damn time. Another thing that, to me, indicates it's not misguided is that it's one damn thing after another.

...if it is too loud...
...you are too old...
...howls...
...that is an interesting point about the evolution of this piece, I understand how you came to that conclusion...
...that was a common "technique" among classical composers to recycle themes...
...I suppose one could say it was a predecessor to "sampling"...

I did not know that; however there is another Tchaikovsky piece that resembles one of the numbers in 'The Nutcracker Suite'.
...Beethoven was the master of recycling...

Not a Tonya fan.
I thought you were referring to the subject matter and humor in the article.

RE: The rest of the article. So true, and the last line is priceless: If you let the clowns roam free, you end up with a circus.
