A Bit of Cheer
1 min read
These are dark days, and I expect darker days await. So much to feel despondent about, but these three videos cheered me up a bit today.
Found the top two on Kornel’s Mastodon and then the third on Stevie Martin’s channel. Both recommended.
“Entrance of the Gladiators” op. 68 or “Entry of the Gladiators” is a military march composed in 1897 by the Czech composer Julius Fučík. He originally titled it “Grande Marche Chromatique,” reflecting the use of chromatic scales throughout the piece, but changed the title based on his personal interest in the Roman Empire. The march is subtitled “Triumph-Marsch.”– Entrance of the Gladiators, Wikipedia
