#1812overture

[musicainextenso]

Dear Followers, I’m really happy to announce the 5th Edition of Famous Overtures, here at Musica in Extenso! I think that, this series is really fitting to this amazing autumn mood and I hope, we will make a great transition for the next week’s Hallowee(k)n. 

For the first post, I prepared something very interesting. The Year 1812 Solemn Overture, festival overture in Eb major, Op. 49, popularly known as the 1812 Overture, is a concert overture written in 1880 by the Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to commemorate the successful Russian defence against Napoleon's invading Grande Armée in 1812. The 15 minute overture is best known for its climactic volley of cannon fire, ringing chimes, and brass fanfare finale. It has also become a common accompaniment to fireworks displays on the United States' Independence Day. (source: Wikipedia)

Today on Musica in Extenso:

This incredible birthday present took approximately 30 hours of knitting by my mother @annettelynda thank you! ♥️ It was inspired by … 2. Rectangles Knitted by my great grandmother Lumb. A gift for @annettelynda as the first person in the family going to university at Newcastle Poly in 1975, now @northumbriauni My first memory of this blanket is a picnic with my parents and god parents, @christinelangley2277 and @ill_say_its_hot. We were at an orchestral concert in the grounds of Kenwood House, summer of ‘83. The finale was The Year 1812 Solemn Overture accompanied by fireworks. At one year of age, this was an astonishing experience and still one of my most vivid memories. Just discovered photos of the day may exist! #knitting #blanket #picnics #1812overture #kenwoodhouse #hampsteadheath https://www.instagram.com/p/CCQ3vTHnZNP/?igshid=14334zheepvu1
