Among the most frequently performed and well-known of P. I. Tchaikovsky's (1840-1893) works, The Year 1812, Solemn Overture, Op. 49 (more commonly known as the 1812 Overture) was written in 1880 to commemorate the 1812 defeat of Napoleon's invading French army by the Russians. Despite the composer's lack of enthusiasm about the project at its inception, claiming that he wrote it without any warm and loving feelings, Tchaikovsky acknowledged later that he did well in its composition, saying I absolutely do not know whether my overture (The Year 1812) is good or bad, but I rather think it is the former (pardon my immodesty). It premiered on August 20, 1882, in Moscow at the Art & Industry Exhibition, Ippolit Altani conducting. Famous for its use of cannons in the Finale, the Finale also calls for the inclusion of a military brass band, which is labelled as open instrumentation in the original. This edition by Martin Schmeling spells out specific instrumentation options for the banda. Instrumentation: 2+Picc.2+EH.2.2: 4.2+2.3.1: Timp.Perc(5-6): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Banda ad lib [0.0.0.0: 4.2.2.2: Perc(3-4)].

Ford • McCarthy • Abe • Higdon • Goto Since the inception of the projects, composers, conductors, music critics, and connoisseurs worldwide have praised the recordings conducted by Eugene Migliaro Corporon for their innovation, excellence, and professional standards. These exceptional videos and compact discs identify and preserve the standard repertoire and globally encourage composers to contribute to the ever-growing legacy of great music that has the power of universality. The breadth and variety of the discs highlight the fact that the wind symphony, in its many forms throughout hundreds of years of music history, has been and continues to be a significant original medium for serious aesthetic expression. The projects have yielded more than 100 discs that showcase the creative energy of thousands of world-renowned composers and gifted musicians. Winds magazine offers the following regarding the body of work: “This series has immense historic value in documenting the best of the repertoire...as well as providing much sheer listening (and viewing) pleasure for the level of artistry in the performances. The acoustic quality of the recording is state-of-the- art...All of the works are superbly realized and worthy of exploration...these discs represent the standards to which all must aspire.”   This is a monumental recording that should be listened to and studied by every serious concert percussionist. The writing for percussion and winds is innovative and cutting edge, and there is much here for composers to learn about scoring for percussion and winds. The [University of North Texas] Wind Symphony performs these works fabulously and flawlessly, and the baton of Maestro Corporon is evident throughout. —Tom Morgan, Percussive Notes • Vol. 56, No. 3 • July 2018 Watch this video: Eugene Corporon and Mark Ford Discuss Contact Read Mark Ford's commentary on his project with Eugene Corporon: Contact Contents 1.
