+Reverb Twang Well, playing new music isn't that hard when you know how to play. Several times, I've seen experienced mucisians be able to recreate a song just after listening to it once. Having sheet music would make it even easier. Writing music, in one draft, without any corrections whatsoever, is an entirely different story.

[@moondog50002000]

[@vesteel]

lol of course playing a piece with fast tempo without rehearsing won't make a single musician out of sync.

[@jndljoui]

Actually, Mozart had already created the piece in his mind, but he procrastinated writing it down to the last second. In the last day, his wife obligated him to spend the whole night writing it. The papers were handed at 7 am the day it would premiere.

Few people know the stress of having to compose a 6 minute overture for an opera that premieres the same day because you had a massive hangover. Mozart is a beast composer. Let this be a life lesson kids: don't drink before your homework is done.

I'm not sure this is true lol I mean the orchestra would have had to learn and practice the piece before the premiere

***** often in the late 18th early 19th orchestras didn't rehearse before the premiere. see for instance haydn's special recommendation for one of his london symphonies (he writes that they should at least rehearse once before as the symphony in question (don't remember which) is particularly hard to play).

Jesse Ventura Yup, THAT is amazing. All I'll say is that he didn't compose it out of nothing; he reused many themes from the opera itself, which I have to assume was basically finished by the time he got to the overture. Still amazing though.

[@willowm1839]

Fun fact about this piece, it was one of the earliest pieces of secular music to include the trombone, which at the time had recently been changed and gained a more widely flared bell, which is what differentiates it from its predecessor, the "sackbut." Around this same time, the trombone also became popular in military bands. The main type of trombone that we see today, the tenor trombone, was the most common around this time as well, even though the sizes had recently been standardized to tenor, bass, and occasionally alto, mostly due to the fact that it was much easier to play than any of the other previously listed sizes. Later on a soprano size trombone was made (18th century) but is now rare. The alto was eliminated and is no longer used, but the bass is still however in use. Orchestras today include 2 tenor trombones and one bass. During the 1930s and 40s, though, big bands were very popular, and during the 1930s, they contained only a single trombone, and 4 in the 40s.

[@RageHole]

Interesting!

[@lestorm3310]

Also, Mozart wrong it the morning that the opera it played at premiered! Mozart was a procrastinator like all of us on youtube :D

[@eleanorkahn257]

Dane Irwin That makes total sense. Because of its religious significance, trombone is often used to indicate "holy wrath," like the Commendatore here, or, for example, the curse of the Ring in Wagner's Ring Cycle. That's cool that Mozart was one of the first people to use it in that way.

"The beginning simple, almost comic. Just a pulse - bassoons and basset horns - like a rusty squeezebox. Then suddenly - high above it - an oboe, a single note, hanging there unwavering, till a clarinet took over and sweetened it into a phrase of such delight! This was no composition by a performing monkey! This was a music I'd never heard. Filled with such longing, such unfulfillable longing, it had me trembling. It seemed to me that I was hearing the very voice of God."

Bu tutumu çoğu zaman ben de sergiliyorum ancak düşünüyorum da insanlar kendilerini küçük görme eğiliminde olmamadırlar. Çünkü Mozart, Beethoven, Bach gibi kişilerin kendilerini dünyaya tanıtacak, yeteneklerini gösterecek fırsatları vardı ve bunu harikulade şekilde değerlendirdiler. Ancak bu demek değildir ki sizlerden yahut günümüz insanlarından daha yetenkli sanatçılar çıkmayacak. İnsan birilerini kendinden sürekli üstün tutarsa bir şey üretemez hale gelir, çünkü daha başarısız olduğu algısı onu yiyip bitirir. Haddim değil ancak benden sizlere bir tavsiye.

He wrote this on a hangover with no sleep? Who else is here after watching how procrastinating can be a good thing? I love history, more ppl should read more of it. You’ll find some things just never change like never studying for a test until the night b4 a test or never writing a note for your symphony to play until the night b4 your in front of hundreds of ppl. Props to the symphony for being able to make Mozart still look good with NO rehearsal for this piece because someone never wrote it for them to practice. Just, here everyone play this and your parts, yes I know it’s opening night! But then again props to Mozart for writing it clearly and well enough for them to not get confused while playing it for the 1st time. Now I’m left with a question tho? Did he have the notes he wrote down printed up for the ppl in the symphony so they each had a sheet? And if so then when did he have the time if not did he hand wright the sheet music for each member of the symphony because if it took him 3 hrs just to come up with and wright the notes down then to rewrite it for everyone else would have taken days unless he had a place to go to with his copy and have it printed up for his musicians. Since he waited to do all the writing literally thee night b4, he would have had to go get the music copied many times over to give out to musicians b4 the start of the performance. I doubt that had anything close to printers today. Just a thought.

Finally saw Don Giovani, after all these years of listening to this song everytime I was way behind and a few hours from a deadline. Exceptional experience - as expected, I made sure to be running late, and made sure to get there.. just in time.

He wrote this the morning it premiered. And here we are, still listening to this beautiful music piece. Meanwhile do you remember that song Justin Bieber/Madonna/Beyonce/Pink/whatever made 2 years ago?

Johannes Brahms (1896): " I always find Beethoven's C Minor concerto {the Third Piano Concerto} much smaller and weaker than Mozart's. . . . I realize that Beethoven's new personality and his new vision, which people recognized in his works, made him the greater composer in their minds. But after fifty years, our views need more perspective. One must be able to distinguish between the charm that comes from newness and the value that is intrinsic to a work. I admit that Beethoven's concerto is more modern, but not more significant! I also realize that Beethoven's First Symphony made a strong impression on people. That's the nature of a new vision. But the last three Mozart symphonies are far more significant. . . . Yes, the Rasumovsky quartets, the later symphonies-these inhabit a significant new world, one already hinted at in his Second Symphony. But what is much weaker in Beethoven compared to Mozart, and especially compared to Sebastian Bach, is the use of dissonance. Dissonance, true dissonance as Mozart used it, is not to be found in Beethoven. Look at Idomeneo. Not only is it a marvel, but as Mozart was still quite young and brash when he wrote it, it was a completely new thing. What marvelous dissonance! What harmony! You couldn't commission great music from Beethoven since he created only lesser works on commission-his more conventional pieces, his variations and the like. When Haydn or Mozart wrote on commission, it was the same as their other works. "

wonderful performance.

When you are Mozart, even your last minute product is a master piece 🎶

[@AW-lb5ki]

This work is an example of "drama giocoso" - an opera that contains contrasting elements - humour and drama. How does the overture depict this? (use point form)

[@MrAnonymous2525]

Considering the fact there's no photocopy machine during Mozart's time in which he composed the piece the morning it premiered, how on earth did the orchestra managed to rehearse the overture quickly with just a single copy?

[@Ryan-qn6qf]

They actually sight-read it. Even Mozart was impressed with them

[@tonywright8294]

They googled it 😂

Apparently Mozart composed this the day it premiered, while suffering from a massive hangover, wut .-.
