La gazza ladra (Italian pronunciation: [la ˈɡaddza ˈlaːdra], The Thieving Magpie) is a melodramma or opera semiseria in two acts by Gioachino Rossini, with a libretto by Giovanni Gherardini based on La pie voleuse by Jean-Marie-Theodor Badouin d'Aubigny and Louis-Charles Caigniez.
The composer Giaochino Rossini wrote quickly, and La gazza ladra was no exception. According to legend, before the first performance of the opera, the producer assured the composition of the overture by locking Rossini in a room, from the window of which the composer threw out the sheets of music to the copyists who then wrote the orchestral parts, to complete the composition of the opera. As such, The Thieving Magpie is best known for the overture, which is musically notable for its use of snare drums. The unique inspiration in the melodies is extreme, famously used to bizarre and dramatic effect in Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange. This memorable section in Rossini's overture invokes the image of the opera's main subject: a clever, devilishly thieving magpie. - เพลง

When the phone rang I was in the kitchen, boiling a potful of spaghetti and whistling along with an FM broadcast of the overture to Rossini’s The Thieving Magpie, which has to be the perfect music for cooking pasta. I wanted to ignore the phone, not only because the spaghetti was nearly done, but because Claudio Abbado was bringing the London Symphony to its musical climax. Finally, though, I had to give in. It could have been somebody with news of a job opening. I lowered the flame, went to the living room, and picked up the receiver.

As we walked along the flatblock marina, I was calm on the outside but thinking all the time, so now it was to be Georgie the General, saying what we should do and what not to do, and Dim as his mindless, grinning bulldog. But, suddenly, I viddied that thinking was for the gloopy ones and that the oomny ones use like inspiration and what Bog sends; for now it was lovely music that came to my aid. There was a window open with a stereo on, and I viddied right at once what to do...

Yes, quite
Rossini is truly an underrated composer, this is one of if not the best opera overtures I’ve ever heard.
Rossini is not underrated
Yes, in my opinion is so underrated, Rossini sacred works are the greatest ever made with verdi and mozart.
And his chamber music , piano music, etc...
Rossini is one of the most talented musicians of all times.
In my heart he is not underrated ❤
@@paolorossi9180 Most people don't know Rossini.
@@lukemchugh719 I agree, [his] Grand (Serious subject) operas are quite magnificent... Rossini's demands on the orchestra could be technically difficult 2:11 .... also the compositional precursor to much of the 'bel canto' era, including Bellini and Donizetti...
This is the perfect music for cooking pasta.
Don't forget the wine, sir.

Rossini wrote this song for 10 minute ad revenue
Way ahead of his time
Here's the synopsis
Act 1
At the house of Fabrizio Vingradito and his wife Lucia there is joy for the imminent return of their son Giannetto from the war. One of the servants, Ninetta, is in love with Giannetto and all want the two to marry, except Lucia, who blames Ninetta for the recent loss of a silver fork. Isacco, a local peddler, visits and asks about Ninetta, but Pippo, Fabrizio's manservant, sends him away. Giannetto arrives and goes inside with Lucia while Ninetta prepares for the party. Once they have gone, Ninetta's father, Fernando Villabella, arrives, also from the war. However, he was sentenced to death after fighting with his captain and is now a deserter. He asks his daughter to sell two pieces of family silver to go towards his expenses while he is on the run. The Mayor arrives with intent on seducing Ninetta, and she claims that her father is just some vagrant. The Mayor's assistant delivers the arrest warrant for a deserter (Fernando), but as the Mayor has forgotten his reading glasses, Ninetta is asked to read the warrant, and makes up a description of someone totally unlike her father. The Mayor continues to force his attentions on Ninetta, at which Fernando almost reveals himself in anger. The three leave, and a magpie flies down and steals one of Lucia's silver spoons.
Isacco passes by again, and Ninetta sells him the silver her father had entrusted to her. Giannetto and others return, and Lucia notices that a spoon is missing. The Mayor starts an immediate investigation, stating the draconian penalty for domestic theft: death. Lucia and the Mayor accuse Ninetta, who in her distress drops the money she had exchanged from Isacco. The peddler is brought back and reports that he has already sold the spoon, but he recalls the inscription "F.V.", initials shared by Fabrizio and Fernando. The stunned Ninetta, desperate to protect her father, is unable to refute the accusations, and the Mayor orders her arrest.
Act 2
Antonio, the prison warder, takes pity on Ninetta and says that he will get a message to Pippo and let Giannetto visit her. Ninetta convinces Giannetto that she is innocent. The Mayor now arrives and tells Ninetta that if she accepts his advances he will get her freed - she replies that she would rather die. The Mayor is called away, but Antonio has heard all and offers to help Ninetta any way he can. Ninetta asks Pippo to sell a gold cross and put some money for her father in an agreed hiding place - a chestnut tree. Ninetta is brought to trial, found guilty, and condemned to death. Fernando rushes to the court to save his daughter's life, but is too late; he too is sent to prison.
Ernesto, a military friend of Fernando, bursts in looking for the Mayor and holding a royal pardon for Ninetta's father. Pippo shows him the way and is given a silver coin for helping, but the magpie snatches it and flies up to the tower. Pippo and Antonio pursue the thief.
Ninetta is taken to the scaffold and makes her final speech to the crowd. From the tower, Pippo and Antonio cry out that they have found Lucia's silver in the magpie's nest and they ring the bells. The crowd hear their words and hope to save Ninetta, but shots ring out and they conclude that they are too late. However, Ninetta appears walking down the hill - the shots were mere rejoicing. Ninetta celebrates with her companions but is worried about her father. He then appears with Ernesto and all - except the Mayor - enjoy a happy ending.

Bugs Bunny used this music before. My introduction to classical music. Thank you Bugs.
A more civilized show from where civilized age
I was going to post the exact same thing. Bugs taught me a lot.
Rossini was the first great modern entertainer. He was a 20th century composer in the 19th century. His music is usually exhilarating and he remaines along with Tchaikovsky one of the 2 most entertaining of the pre-20th century masters.

Even when the world ends this piece of musical art will still be associated with Alex and his 3 droogs
This sounds familiar.

Ever seen Clockwork Orange?
@Kalcool12: I just saw it tonight.
It's been used as background music on a lot of TV programmes, short videos, trailers and adverts

Here after "The Wind-up bird chronicle" by Haruki Murakami
Same here

At 4:40 I think I hear the distinct sound of a string breaking... It cannot be unheard. Still a marvelous rendition, and I do love this song, it's just one of those little things you notice.
All I hear is the pizzicato that’s supposed to be there - you’ve better ears than I do!
I hear something. Sounds more like just a misplayed note.
When I heard that string snap, I thought it was part of the piece😂
It's at 4:41 actually
Rossini's finales are simply grand.
LET'S GET EM BOYS!!!
the durango 95 purred along smoothly, with this deep feeling all in your guttiwuts. i was more afraid than anyone else, seeing as i didn't know how to drive. the droogs and i cleared the streets, playing hogs of the road. soon it got real country dark, and we decided to head west.

This piece was used in a Bugs Bunny cartoon! One of my favorite overtures by Rossini.
Which cartoon was it used in?
No, in the Bugs Bunny cartoon it's another piece: William Tell overture final.
It was also in an episode of SpongeBob.
If any of you want to listen to music while stealing a crown, this part will make you feel even better while doing it. 7:16 No rush.
It really was a stroke of genius by Kubrick to use this in Clockwork Orange.
What a wonderful depiction this music has of a phenomenon in a bird that has been the subject of controversy
Roses are red

"You called" said Next Season, "perhaps seeking truth"
"of what happened after Holmes jumped off the roof"
I did, I exclaimed! I bet it's SO clever!
"You won't ever know. Not now and not ever!"
"But why", I asked "would they pull such a stunt"
"Because they're pretentious and talentless idiots.
I have watched the antics of my garden Magpies throughout the pandemic and their freedom and innocence has kept me sane in my solitude. I feed them every day and they have become my wild pets. This amazing music perfectly describes their behaviour,how inspired Rossini must have been to produce this delicious piece of work.
Innocent?! Don't be fooled! My brother spent hours in his garden planting hundreds of acorns unaware that the magpies were watching his every move. The moment his back was turned, they swooped down and stole every one! Greedy, thieving ******! I sent him this piece of music and told him they had done the same to Rossini.
A bit like Thieving greedy people I find ! Give me innocent birds every time to people who are just as destructive!@@annmariestewart8982

This music excites me for a bit of the old ultra-violence.
As we walked along the flat block marina, I was calm on the outside but thinking all the time. So now it was to be Georgie the general and dim as his mindless grinning bulldog. But then I viddied that thinking was for the gloopy ones and the omni ones used like, inspiration and what bog sends. Now it was beautiful music that came to my aid as there was a window open with a stereo on and I viddied at once to do.

This is just about the best performance out there. The speedup at the end is especially smooth; a gradual increase instead of the sudden gearshift most groups do.

If The Sherlock characters were Clockwork Orange Characters
1. Sherlock-Alex
2. John-Dim
3. Moriarty-Pete
4. Georgie-Mycroft
Ahh...Rossini! Once he was asked if he preferred wine, women or song. He supposedly responded that he could write his own songs. When questioned further about a preference for wine or women, he remarked, "It depends on the vintage." If that is a true story, I love the response! I also love to listen to his music....when I am feeling sad, it makes me feel very happy!
For Sherlock fans, the scene with Moriarty starts at 4:30.

This was my dad’s favorite piece of music 😥
Whilst I had always been into pop music throughout my life, I always used to listen to Rossini's overtures such as the Barber of Seville and Semiramide over and over again where the Thieving Magpie was my favourite.
Makes me want to steal a crown, prepare for ultraviolence, get a dud, and more
I joined a concert lately and I listened this piece! Glad to hear again so gorgeous!
Moriarty steals the Crown Jewels to this amazing piece of music. How fitting that the vituperative reptile would have "The thieving Magpie" playing in the background. Love Rossini and love Sherlock.
4:10 is what I came for. One very well used piece of classical music. 😄
I love how stately and commanding this is written. Bel canto rules!
What a great piece of music 👏
i play the flute,trombone,ukelele, and violin but this is probably among the best music written for any instrument on earth.

Todos conhecem o filme onde se pode ouvir esta música, mas poucos conhecem o grande homem que a compôs.
I was watching a k-drama "I Hear Your Voice" and one of the cast made reference of this piece and what it was about, so I decided to listen here. It's a lovely piece and I'm so glad I looked it up!
For those of you looking to relive Moriarty's mastermind heist, when he begins playing his music on his phone, the overture starts at exactly 7:04
One of the greatest compositions of all time by one of the greatest composers of all time
My good life, 300 years, and totally bonkers. Love it, fabulous.

When we married we left the altar to this. My mother suggested it because it is so triumphant.

4:40: "We fillied around for a while with other travelers of the night, playing "Hogs of the Road." Then we headed west, what we were after now was the old surprise visit, that was a real kick and good for laughs and lashing of the ultra-violent.

I love how William Tell, Barber of Seville and Thieving Magpie sound identical... and yet each one feels so unique
I don’t really hear the similarity with William Tell.
Anyone up for a bit of the Old Ultraviolence?
Just realised where i knew this from
Spongebob episode squid-wood when they start dancing with mini squidward i have been searching for this song for years and im so happy i finnaly found it
all of this music is beautiful, but the part we know best starts at 4:10 !
Imagine you're in a hotel wondering what to do and you hear a sound in the distance, it's a hotel whistling this perfectly.
not an easy tune to whistle
That was the perfect song, Kubrick
I forgot the opening tune was to this. The drum roll before the strings. I had that in my head for a while.
Here for Murakami, an absolute genius!
Sometimes he would whistle a few lines of music. It was an overture of THE THIEVING MAGPIE, the opening where the drums come in. He was good.
