Parce que le classique ça passe toujours bien, une petite compilation, sans ordre, de classique du classique (Avec quand même ma préférée pour la fin : La danse des Chevaliers de Prokofiev).
Un gros vrac de Verdi, Shostakovich, Peer Gynt, Mozart, Ravel, Tchaïkovski, Johann Strauss père et fils etc ...

Classique

Continuing from my piece “The Time To Run”, this track is all about what happens when you have succeeded in the goal of starting a new life. The excitement, relief, and thrill. All entwined in the ongoing hard work and forever changing ideas but never faltering determination for a great life.

From the updated version of The Score (Part One). The Score features over an hour of soundtrack themes from the gentle opening through to full and epic hollywood.

Chopin: Waltz in Db ("Minute" Waltz) op.64 no.1

My next piece is the theme song from the movie Requiem for a dream. Now this piece has a pretty interesting history. So let me take you through it. Yes you’ve to learn something before you get to listen to my songs :P .

Requiem is generally used in the context of a Requiem Mass, meaning a Mass (Church Mass) for the dead.

Now going back in history, around 1791, there was a brilliant composer and musician by the name Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, or Mozart :P . The count Franz von Walsegg commissioned Mozart to create a Requiem through a lot of agents, supposedly to take the work and call it as his own among his audience. Mozart was already very sick at that time. Even with his sickness, the genius composed the first movement of the song called the Requiem aeternam before he passed away! The count was willing to pay only half the money since only part of the work was completed. Hence his Widow approached other composers to help her out in finishing Mozart’s work. Joseph von Eybler, Franz Xaver Süssmayr and Maximilian Stadler and many others helped complete the song that has hence been called Mozart’s Requiem in D Minor.

Zoning back to our times, Clint Mansell, a famous Music composer decided to take Mozart’s Requiem as an inspiration and compose a Requiem named Lux Aeterna. This was orchestrated in many places like the title song for Requiem for a dream and in Lord of the Rings and so on.

The song itself is incredible powerful. This might be because of the fact that Death in itself is a very powerful entity in human minds. The original song is orchestrated. I’ve tried to capture the orchestration and the song’s mood into a piano cover. Just as usual, be my guest and let me know how I’ve done.

Camille Saint-Saens, violin concerto N.3 in B minor op 61, 3rd m

Dmitri Shostakovich wrote his Symphony No. 2 in B major, Op. 14 and subtitled To October, for the 10th anniversary of the October Revolution. It was first performed by the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra and the Academy Capella Choir under Nikolai Malko, on 5 November 1927. After the premiere, Shostakovich made some revisions to the score, and this final version was first played in Moscow later in 1927 under the baton of Konstantin Saradzhev. It was also the first time any version of the work had been played in Moscow.
