Thanks

[@ronburgundy4788]

This may be my favorite video on KZbin. This couldn't have been quick to whip up! Thank you

[@jessicali3929]

Best tutorial I’ve ever seen!

[@brysonfetters4934]

I only recently got into classical music about a year and a half ago and I first found your channel from the video about Shostakovich's 5th Symphony. Since then, I've been following your channel and I've enjoyed all the music history stuff you have released. Carnival of the Animals along with Pictures at an Exhibition and The Planets were kind of my introduction into the genre as they have shorter and easier to define movements (i.e. they have names beyond scherzo or allegro) that make them easier to understand for a beginner like me. I love Carnival of the Animals so I'm kind of angry that I only found this listening guide three weeks after it was released! I kind of wish there were more excellent guides like this, they make it so much easier to understand and get into the music.

Something about the aquarium movement is so magical to me.

[@encyclopediapierciana6815]

Absolutely brilliant analysis! My hat's off to you! Could not be better! Many thanks. Will use it today for my music class! Like to know if you have more of these. Wonderful!

[@francismoore3352]

This is amazing! Puts music history in perspective as this has a lot of what one might call 'sampling' in it

[@missbcpateacher3510]

So glad I got to see/hear this before I finished teaching the carnival to Special Needs Kids!

I am trying to work through all the requests. Sorry it took so long. Thanks for watching!

[@red_Bellapepper]

Wow! The Tortoises caught me by surprise, i haven't noticed the reference at all before! lol it's so much funnier now that i understand.

[@MsSklar-mu1fk]

This is wonderful! Thank you for creating it.

[@kevinkerkhoff6670]

Awesome listening guide. Especially because of the sheet music

[@stefanoraz27]

y'all are using this video as a tool for learning from school? I am so jealous. My teachers will never be that fun.

[@aarondantzler6029]

I’m just now finding this channel, and it’s awesome! 😎

[@jesseindo5660]

Your explaination and everything just Perfect as Music bring Joy and Happyness Thanks you make my day

[@sebastianmunoz660]

Great video, thank you

[@ofirstroh]

Alan Menken cites aquarium as a direct influence for the prologue of Beauty and the Beast so you are definitely not wrong!

[@etihwttam]

Spectacular video!

[@oceanelf2512]

This piece has been a fave of mine since I was a little girl.

[@maxwinters6458]

I was wondering why “Aquarium” sounded so familiar, then I realized that the initial melody is used in the original music for Space Mountain! Now excuse me while I clean my brain splatter off the wall.

[@cackleberry6317]

Definitely looking to see if there is more of this type education piece! Love it! Also, glad I wasn’t the only one that thought of Beauty and Beast with the Aquarium Movement. Same chording at the beginning.

[@autsni]

This is epic

[@marquizo_5116]

We're gonna play the, "Finale" at our school in the near future, but i honestly didn't know, "The Swan" was from carnival of the animals LOL great piece

[@justusmollberg3403]

The Prologue from Beauty and the Beast is an actual pastiss of aquarium. The director asked the composer Alan Menken to write a similar music to aquarium for the opening of the film.

[@WhySoSquid]

Makes sense, I couldn't place the first time I heard Aquarium..sounded so familiar from childhood 🤣

[@eejaypea]

Ah, I always wondered if that was deliberate!

[@ZottyLuck]

the fossils were and always will be my favorite.

[@randommodnar7141]

9:16 taking famous music and slowing it down. So the original vaporwave

[@giselleplayzroblox9360]

Love it it is such a good song

[@innasokolova736]

Thanks

[@michaeljoseph9722]

The tortoise was basically the first Vaporwave piece ever done

[@vexedpurple4423]

Woah cool video :3

[@vexedpurple4423]

I am doing this for my school orchestra home work and this is fun.

[@anna.esther]

I always tought that personnages à longues oreilles was about rabbits jumping and running on a field hahaha

[@oceanelf2512]

Apparently that is a piece that gives different mental images to different people. Ogden Nash set poetry to Carnival, and for the Characters With Long Ears, he wrote: "In the world of mules, there are no rules."

[@Anthony-oe6uj]

Excuse me, what software have You used to create the moving bar on the score which indicates the notes that are being played, Please?

[@oceanelf2512]

In Tortoises, the harmony is off in a couple places after Can Can is through.

[@yanchen9796]

13:58. The music also inspired the music form the harry potter movies.

[@igorsandorov8873]

doesn't sound much like harry potter theme maybe the similar selection of instruments. You could say that whole impressionist era inspired music for harry potter movie. Try listening to Gabriel Faure Siciliene which is very similar to one piece from harry potter and prisoner from azkaban soundtrack.

[@muzicteechsop]

The s at the end of Saëns is silent :) Great video!

[@Rgoid]

28:41 “What would happen if you gave a yo-yo to a flock of flamingos?”

[@aldityodamar6822]

What i learned from this video: it's pronounced song songs

[@MorioRexPage]

Isn’t it the glass armonica, rather than the glass harmonica or am I mistaken?

[@Oddquartet]

You are right! It goes by many names including glass harmonica, glass armonica, glass harmonium, bowl organ, and hydrocrystalophone.

[@MorioRexPage]

Ah, I see. I was once corrected for saying harmonica but I suppose that would explain it.

[@percusionlm]

Awesome! I have found this guide perfect for my students! One question...how made this colour bar around the score? It is a great idea to allow read music while listening! Please tell me how can i do it with other scores!

[@annacatanzaritimusic]

Hey may I ask how you create you music tutorials

[@Oddquartet]

Absolutely! My process starts by looking at what topics my viewers have requested, then researching the topic. Then once I have a script that I like, I use a combination of After Effects and Photoshop to animate the video. Mostly using After Effects for the animations and Photoshop to crop/adjust any of the graphics before bringing them into After Effects. Thanks for the question!

[@LizaSPaul]

The finale has a amazing rithom
