Точно
It's settled then.
I even made Tchaikovsky fan art
I was today years old when I found out that "Once Upon a Dream" in Disney's Sleeping Beauty is actually by Tchaikovsky.
All of the music from Disney's _The Sleeping Beauty_ is from Tchaikovsky"s _The Sleeping Beauty._
My Daddy got a Tchaikovsky cd when I was really little and it had Sleeping Beauty on it and that’s when I learned that the same guy who did The Nutcracker also did one of my favorite movies 😂 It was so cool. That song is absolutely gorgeous. I actually saw the Sleeping Beauty play when I was probably…like 8 or 9. And that was so cool hearing the music from the Disney movie with a ballet
Warning, this topic is semi-political, I like to think I'm being rather neutral but if you don't like it, you do not have to read it.
I'm listening to this after hearing that a concert with pieces by Tchaikovsky became cancelled, due to the fact he's Russian.
He's dead, people.
If you never mentioned who the composer was I don't think anyone would get offended hearing these pieces.
I do hate what's going on Ukraine, don't misunderstand. But I fail to see how canceling a dead Russian composer is supposed to affect anything.
It's music. It shouldn't be canceled because it's creator happened to be Russian
Very well said. I agree all the way
I agree 1,000%. Tchaikovsky has nothing to do with what's going on in Ukraine.
Yeah, it's a very dumb reason to "cancel" him. Other prominent russians, too!
It's like they're purposefully spreading russophobia. Almolst as if everything that ever came from Russia is inherently bad.
It's just banal.
@@ivanam.1613 It's so sad. Like if you're Russian, you're automatically bad
My sentiments exactly! Was Beethoven or Mozart “cancelled” after WWII? No. Russophobia is becoming absurd.
Tchaikovsky: "Bring the cannon in"
Everyone: "But sir they aren't an instrument"
Tchaikovsky: "I SAID BRING THE CANNON IN"
I'M DEAD, LMAOOOOOOO
the only question is why isn't this a russian anthem?
"THEYRE INSTRUMENTS OF WAR, THEYRE STILL INSTRUMENTS."
Squidward Tentacles: mayonnaise is not an instrument
Tchaikovsky: yes, canons is a musical instrument

I find that Russian composers possess unique talent for conveying a lot of personality and strong characterization in their music, almost like they are painting a portrait with sound.
It’s like the beauty and tragedy of Russian history put into music. So triumphant and tragic at the same time 🔥
Same in literature. Russians are exceptional in the arts. Germans are exceptional in science, Italians are exceptional in the culinary domain, and Americans are exceptional in industry
@@flibbettyjibbetts6766 What Americans were exceptional in, to be more precise, was freedom. The industry was a natural consequence of that.

@@kj_landaez She was a student at Moscow state conservatory where Tchaikovsky was a professor. They were married less then a year and then divorced. and never lived together.
For me, Tchaikovsky will remain the best composer and I don't care what politics and current realities require. There is a soul in this music, a truly Russian soul, and it fascinates me and makes me worry. In Russia, I also have a lot of friends and they are not at all like the orcs they want to present to us, they are quite the same people as everyone else.. they are no different from us, although they probably smile less.. but this is not because of coldness, in Russia it is considered bad form to smile at strangers, especially for no reason. Tchaikovsky is in my heart forever.

I don't give a fuck about his sexuality. I do however give a fuck about people who are trying to deny a fact, just because they can't live with said fact. He was gay, get over it and don't claim that he wasn't. Or read his letters about his sexual fantasies, but those might be much more disturbing to you than his "defect".

To me, Tchaikovsky is the greatest composer who ever lived. He created masterpieces in all different categories--opera, symphony, ballet, chamber, piano, tone poem, concerto, and sacred. The emotional power and beauty of his music is unmatched. Sadly so many of his masterpieces are rarely heard today especially the Manfred Symphony, Piano Concerto #2 and the Souvenir de Florence. Fortunately I live in Philadelphia where I've heard our great orchestra perform all of these works.
There is something ominous and powerful about Russian Classic Music. It screams power and gore and dancing in heavy jewelry, betrayal and royalty. It is so cool.
pLEASE I WAS USING HEADPHONES WHEN THE GODFORSAKEN CANONS CAME UP

As a harpist, I love his music! He is one of the only composers that really appreciated harps in their music! His pas de deux is one of my favorite pieces of classic music.

Tchaikovsky is like the Dostoevsky of classical music
And Dostoyevsky is the Tchaikovsky of literature.
I think more like Pushkin
I think Rachmaninoff is the Dostoevsky of classical music. And yeah Tchaikovsky is the Pushkin, the father of literary Russian language.
U guys ever listen to scriabin? He has more dostoevsky vibes imo
I am reading Dostoevsky while listening to this as we're speaking!
When I was little, my father gave me 6 cd's with Tchaikovsky songs in it. I put the first one to play in my radio, and I fell in love w his compositions. I listened to it everyday. Today I am a cellist ballerina, and he is still my favorite composer
i'm glad that a lot of people appreciate the culture despite the shit happening these days. we're here to listen to good music, that's all.

@Jason Wu so what? doesnt change its greatness.
@Jason Wu
Back in the days you had no Internet access, so ofc if everyone loved one particular song, it was in the musician interest to play it in every concert. "In his interest" because he'd know that more people would come than if he did not play them. So he had to play it in every concert, which of course would drive anyone mad.
Now, they would be way freer in their music choices, as everyone would have access to their music while not in concert.
And I don't even mention the fact that it was loved lots because of the recent Napoleonic Era, all the stories around it and the Russian (and other countries') national pride of defeating the undefeatable.
Not much to do with musical taste. For my part, my personal favorite because I love stuff about the Napoleonic Era. I have no musical ear or anything, but I don't think I would be alone either, back in those days.
See how those are two totally different eras & mindsets.
Now, all those cannon sounds etc would sound really off to anyone. You don't really expect this kind of sound in a classical concert, it was really avant-garde.
So, as I said, it's not because one song is your personnal favorite that it makes it bad, musically speaking. It certainly drove the compositor mad from repeating and repeating and repeating it over and over, but people are still in right to like it, whatever their reasons are.
@Jason Wu now this is interesting!
i totally agree with you, people should not reduce him as "the guy who made this particular music". He was a great composer, and it's sad to know that people only acknowledged him through one music.
it's also true that he was strongly inspired by western europeans, just like many others. Even though it has nothing to do with Tchaikovsky, I recently noticed that all of the current post-soviet countries hymns are composed after the USSR hymn, itself sounding a lot like older European ones (by instruments and composition). Both interesting and sad to notice how even now, a strong influence can push countries to alter themselves...
@Jason Wu what people really mainly think of is probably either swan lake or the nutcracker
As someone who has taken ballet I can say that Tchaikovsky ballet music is about as perfect as ballet music can get. Graceful, exciting, poised and dramatic
He is without a shadow of a doubt the best musician there was, such a beautiful, complex orchestrator, every instrument in the orchestra plays and yet you can hear them all, so moving in the melodies, in the polyrhythmic roles.... simply a genius who communicates with God
Tchaikovski died poor and with his contemporary society never apreciating his talent. Here we are today. God had a tragic life. Am i bold to asume his was also a beautiful tragedy?
Edit: seems like he was acknowledged as he should ( it was just his love life being sad )
@@elsasanhaie3368 damn.
Well maybe i missinterpreted it when my teacher at school said he died "misserable" but is something i remembered all my life since his music was beautiful.
So.it was other type of "misserable".
Anyways elementary schools spreadding missinformation about topics they dont really care is.not new.
I am glad to know he was recogniced teh. Very glad.
You have just described all of the history of Estern Europe in 2 sentences.
The "died poor and his contemporary society never appreciated his talent" is Schubert, Tchaikovsky was far from it: He was patronized by Nadezhda von Meck and I believe he was the first Russian composer who could devote his life to composing without worrying about money. He was well-known among Russian music circle and a good friend to French composer Saint-Saëns, Cambridge university gave him an honorable doctor degree. Tchaikovsky's music was performed in many big orchestras and theaters, many of it enjoyed success and he became one of the first major European composers to visit America.
Tchaikovsky didn't die poor.
Fun fact, Tchaikovsky was the conductor in the opening night of Carnegie Hall! Near the end of his life he was indeed well celebrated as a composer. Maybe your teacher meant by "miserable" that his personal life was full of sadness... the death of his mother when he was still young was a very traumatic (yet formative) event, not to mention he was a closeted gay man in 19th century Russia who had a disastrous marriage to a woman in order to repress his sexuality and protect his family's reputation. The death of his sister around the time he was composing The Nutcracker also kinda sucked. Also many circunstances of his death (mere days after the premiere of the Pathétique Symphony) are still surrounded by mystery as people argue if it was disease or suicide. His music takes a whole other meaning when you consider the context they were written...

You know what I'm talking about
i was counting down the seconds fully vibing hahaha
Tchaikovsky's music is something of a different emotional spectrum. As musicians we appreciate early Romantic music to be very commonly associated with nature and such. It is an incredibly natural feeling music, which can be appreciated in so many ways. Later Romantic music, such as Brahms, Dvorak, Mahler, Mendelssohn, and of course Tchaikovsky, is much more emotion infused. That being said, with the above composers, this music was "infused" with emotion, whereas Tchaikovsky literally wrote how he was feeling. It is because of this there is such contrast in his music. Look at the first movement form his Sixth Symphony. It is so melancholy, and then a passionate theme, and a slow end to it. Then an angry, and chaotic middle section, closed out by the theme. You have to listen to it to really get the full scope of what I am trying to say. His music is so incredibly passionate and tortured. His later music is a cry for help. His Pathetique Symphony (widely considered to be his suicide note) was the last piece he wrote. Like I said above, the first movement is contrasting, then followed by an Allegro Con Grazia. Then a scherzo, Allegro Molto Vivace. Finally an Adagio Lamentoso/Andante. The fourth is the most noticeable, it starts off with a chromatic like scale. Then a lovesick theme, and then back to the Adagio, as the theme finally fades into the emptiness. I like to think of this as his thoughts in the weeks leading up to his controversial death (which was attributed to Cholera, but is widely speculated to be a suicide due to his rumored homosexuality and the Russian Governments efforts to cover it up). A very sad, torturous depression, and then, a last thought, a reminder of his life, and then fading away to depression once again and into the inevitable end. This is the best example of his emotional music. Countless other pieces not included, such as his Violin Concerto, movements of Suites, his Romeo and Juliet Overture (!!!) and a myriad of other pieces. His music is infectious. His Piano Concerto is another contrasting piece, with a slightly different ending. A beautiful theme in the first movement, then tumultuous movements throughout the movement. It struggles to find a home. Then a beautiful Andante, and then the Finale. A theme is stated, and is repeated all the way to a climactic moment, and then, a resolution. We are offered the home the first movement so desperately longed for. These pieces are all so spectacular in emotional depth it is shocking. Enjoy them.
Absolutely
Nice little write-up. I agree completely. This man’s compositions were off-the-charts good. With Regard to Symphony no.6…it’s difficult to put into words how amazing that work is. You gave it a pretty try. It’s a monumental achievement and masterpiece in every sense of the word.
woah mama !! nice words
Tchaikovsky is the greatest of them all because of his astounding versatility. Symphonies, concertos, opera, chamber, choral, stand alone masterworks such as Capriccio Italien & the 1812 Overture, one of the first great song writers (None But the Lonely Heart) and, of course, ballet.
I was trying a while back to think of who wrote great works in as many genres as Tchaikovsky, and only Handel and Mozart came close.
*Tchaikovsky's symphonies are like a journey through time and space. Absolutely mesmerizing!*
this music is more filling than a snickers bar...
no-
@@ajanicole6016 yes.
why not have both?
i had both and now i am going to take over the world
I'm Russian and proud to having had that composer, he's my favorite in fact, but the elitism in this comment section discards other wonderful artists. I believe art is hard to compare, especially when it comes in terms of masterful composers like Mozart, Beethoven, Bach and others. Let's not start raging debates over tastes.
YESSS, my thoughts exactly!!! I appreciate your words, a lot! To me, art feels like a personal journey and can be different for everyone.
Yes, but only one can rule.
Stop relativism and accept your superiority for once
Is it true that some russians hate him because he was gay ?
I'm a baroque kind of girl but imho, russian composers were undeniable masters at weaving wondrous, complex & superb pieces 😊
as a ballet dancer...he really is...his work is so possessive and makes me so emotional it's so good to dance too so easily to control how you look because his music makes the dancing feel almost effortless
I totally agree.
Beethoven: Is everyone ready to hear some symphonies!?
The audience: *cheers*
Beethoven: I can't hear you!
in December in Russia it is customary to go to the ballet before Christmas, I invited my mother to the Nutcracker to the Mariinsky Theater. looking forward to listening to Tchaikovsky and watching the ballet.
HELL YEAH RUSSIA HAS THE BEST CLASSICAL MUSIC
I love being Russian.
How do you use the verb "to be" in russian in the present
like, for exaple: i am
@@alfrangomes454 We don't usually use the verb 'to be' (быть - translation) in russian language in the present.
In english, you'd say 'I am from Russia', but in russian, it's just, literal translation, 'I from Russia' (Я из России - translation).
So, the verb 'to be' is only used in the past or future (btw, you do not always need it in the future form;) tenses.
That's what was disappointing for me when I started learning English. I'd always forget about using 'to be' forms everywhere)
@@yellowkakadu1687 Remove this comment, i want to know if he's russian, not you
@@alfrangomes454 he is russian, it's easy
Yeah me too!!
i have been playing the piano ever since i was five, which is twelve years now. What got me into it was the swan lake, which i'd heard at the barbie movie. Tchaikovsky has been my all time favorite ever since, which is why this playlist means a lot to me. Couldn't agree more with you, hes fucking god. Thank you for making this:)
♥️♥️♥️ Swan Lake is just the best ever
I started playing the clarinet at 5 as well and Tchaikovsky was the first composer I listened to and I've never looked back. I'm now 26. You ma'am, have good taste.
@@MRodriguezzable *ma'am, but thanks nonetheless lmaoo:))))
@@mariatzilia8678 I stand corrected :D
Omg yes me tooo... I started learning piano after watching barbie of swan lake which used his music 😭💗
Perfect for studying for my Russian test in two days :)
i was falling asleep then the cannons blasted and i swear on goodness i will never be able to fall alseep again
>Composes a song to celebrate the victory of Russia over France
>France took the song and make its hymn
This is classical music diss man...
True Story?
he took the notes from Rouget de Lisle ;)
br?
@@AndersonMallonyMALLONY-EricCF br.
Well, I don't know if Tchaikovsky was inspired by the French anthem but "la Marseillaise" (the song had an another name but I forgot x'D) was composed during the French Revolution by Rouget de Lisle, so before Tchaikovsky's 1812 Ouverture (By the way it make the song really beautiful and funny at the same time 😂)
I'm French and during the 2nd music I was like "WAIT THOSE 3 SECONDS LOOKED LIKE THE MARSEILLAISE" and now I can't get it out of my head. I'm legit laughing every time I hear it lmao
its on purpose !! that piece was written to celebrate victory against napoleon lolol
@@mcxlii oh damn, I didn't know! That's so cool!!!
Well, as I understand it, he used the French and Russian hymns of those times. So it's all right, it should be so
Lmao in Russian.. Again we laugh last..
Somebody beat me to it here, but that’s intentional. It was a dig against Napoleon’s failed attempt at invading Russia. Also, the ending part of the “1812” used the Russian national anthem at the time.
People say classical is boring and lame, but never heard of this man…
Swan Lake will forever touch my heart and be my #1 favourite. Can’t wait to play this on stage one day.
tchaikovsky going to the store: so we need ten trumpets, a few drums, *c a n n o n s*
do no forget the *c h u r c h b e l l s*
I just finished listening to the Swan Lake, then decided to go to youtube to search for an another playlist and this video comes out! love Tchaikovsky with all my heart♪
Your channel has reinvigorated my interest in classical music
FAXUALLLLLLLLLLL
Why has it ever had the need to be reinvigorated tho!!
tell me i’m not the only one who imagines a little army of mice going off to save the princess in the first piece 😭 it’s adorable in my head
😂
that's so cute 😭
more like nazis….
My favorite by Tchaikovsky will always be Pas de Deux
you mean pass de aux 😏
@@Peter-ss2zh yes sir 😎
I prefer Tchaikovsky over Beethoven, but not because I think he's better. Ranking great artists on arbitrary standards rooted on subjectivity and culture is the most pompous and vapid thing one can do. I just prefer Pyotr because his style fits more modern taste so he feels more familiar than any other classical-romantic composer. You can imagine his music being the score of an iconic movie franchise... I mean, you can also imagine Beethoven, but... like Tchaikovsky compositions could be an original score FOR a movie, rather than being added to a scene to evoke a specific emotion or atmosphere like often it's done with Beethoven, you know what I mean.
I totally get what you mean, also movie scores have clearly been more inspired by late romantic composers like Tchaikovsky than earlier ones like Mozart and Beethoven
Everybody gangsta till the joker pfp starts discussing classical music
@@miguelpereira9859
I once heard a music professor say that the main theme from _The Right Stuff_ was essentially a rip-off of the first movement of Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto.
The irony of course being just how very detailed the notes he got from Petipa as to what the choreographer wanted for the ballet's music. Not that, in the end, it matters--the music is for the ages. (Even though my favorite of all of Tchaikovsky's work is Symphony No. 4.)
In an era where compositions were becoming increasingly dramatic and expressive, Tchaikovsky was perhaps the most dramatic. Regardless of what he may or may not have been, he remains one of my top five favorite classical composers of all time.
Who are the others?
Tchaikovsky necessário, como a vida: vibrante, intenso, doce e amargo. Simplesmente MAGISTRAL!
Величайший композитор!
Beethoven, Bach and Mozart are the kings, but Tchaikovsky is a monster in composition
Is just me that loves Handel too?
@@marciobrunoloiolagomesufc8799 chopin
Tchaikovsky is fire 🔥
Bach was a different era, they all had their times. To me, you really have to break it down by era bc otherwise it’s so hard bc some orchestral techniques hadn’t been invented yet, y’know?
Kinda disappointed that Violin Concerto in D Major did not make the playlist but still this is great
It's on the spotify playlist
@@ultravcletplaylists Great, thank you very much
@@ultravcletplaylists unfortunately only the first movement and not the rest of the concerto,but its still a beautiful movement and its better than nothing
I don't think Tchaikovsky ever thought his sounds would be played through a subwoofer, only a cannon blaster
greatest composer of all time, not to mention the ballets
Lmao when 1882 came up I was like "please tell me it's the canon version, please tell me it's the canon version, please tell me it-" *"HECK YEAH!"*
Thank you for the beautiful playlist. I already loved Tchaikovsky and this playlist represents my music love for him perfectly.
The one dislike is the devil because he has been grumpy about music ever since he lost a violin competition to some guy named Johnny down in Georgia.
????
Fiddle, not violin
@@gavrochethenardier957 "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" is the song he is referencing
I'm 14 and his music literally makes me feel like a forest fairy 🧚♀️
I know my friends and even teachers think I'm strange; in this world filled with the opportunity to hear so many different types of music, why would I spend my time enjoying songs that were composed more than 100 years ago? And it's not that I don't like modern music; in fact, I found many of them quite good. But I cannot describe how these masterpieces make me feel. The genius mind of many composers created such beautiful music I find it very upsetting that people are quickly to say the phrase classical music enjoyers hear the most: "but classical music is boring". I'm not the one to judge, but if you can't find mesmerizing these compositions, you wouldn't be able to find a world made up of spectacular notes and incredible symphonies.
Вы так красиво написали..❣️
It's really compelling and makes me forget my realty for a few min
so true
