great comet obc recording things
the door slam before the first chorus in Prologue
âand how many men befoooorree GOOD russian MENâ
âthen youâll read to me as I kniiiiiitâ
ânatasha is young, and worthless and DUMBâ
â⊠they are there upon his headâ
âconstraaaaiiiiiiiiiined and straaaaaaaiiiiinedâ
âsays the mean old man in his underthingsâ
âand heâs sitting in the drawing room⊠and i simply forgotâ
âand then, a rush of cold air, an exceptionally handsome man walked in, with a confident yet courteous airâ
âit doeeeesnât matter, i donât giveee a damnâ
âHEREâS TO THE HEALTH OF MARRIED WOMENâ
âthey say we are asleep until we fall in love⊠we are children of dust and ashesâ
âlife and love i donât! de! serve!⊠close my eyes, let the death! bells! chime!â
âbury me in burgundy, i just donât careâ
ââŠand iâm so ready⊠to wake up nowâŠâ

âitâs such a shame to bury pearls in the countryâ
âohhhhhâŠ.OHHHHHHHHHHHâ
âI⊠WILL⊠LOVE⊠YOU⊠ANATOLEâ
the fast staccato chords at the end of The Ball
âwe are caught in the WAVE, of history, nothing mattersâ
âBURSTING INTO TEARSâ
âpassports, horses, tenthousand ruplesihavetakenfrommysisterâ
dolokhovâs rapid-fire rhyming dialogue in Preparations
âwe were gathered in my study, drinking up some teaâ
âthe driver is here! the driver is here! balaga is here!â
the transition of the slow beat at the end of Preparations to the fast beat at the beginning of Balaga
âSMASH YOUR GLASSES ON THE FLOORâ
âyou will not enter MY HOUSEâ
âwhy didnât come to the HOuse? why didnât he openly ask for your HAnd?â

âthereâs ruin at the DOOR!â
âanatole followed with his usual jaunty step, but his face betrayed anxietyâ
ânext day, anatole left, for PETERSBUUUUUUUUUUUUUURGâ
âpierre grew confusedâŠâ
the simple repetitive notes playing in the background of Pierre & Natasha
âif⊠if i were not myself⊠but the brightest, handsomest, best man on earth, and if i were free, i would get down on my knees this minute, and ask you for your hand, and for your loveâ
the smooth transition to The Great Comet of 1812 after âand i get into my sleighâ
âshines the Great Comet of 1812, the Brilliant Comet of 1812âł
âand this bright star, having traaaced its parabolaâ
the final note subtly rising in pitch over a full minute
