Jurassic Shark 12,023 Posted March 13, 2019 Author Share Posted March 13, 2019 I'd say the last half of the Lockhart recording is pretty much non-stop rousing, not to say arousing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,462 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Really? We must be listening to different tracks, then. A few flourishes do not 'rousing' make, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few flourishes do not 'rousing' make, IMO. Don't tell me you were listening to the Heidi overture! Here's some of the synonyms to rousing, many of which I think describe parts of the Men of Yorktown March well: stirring, inspiring, exciting, stimulating, moving, electrifying, invigorating, enlivening, animating, energizing, exhilarating, enthusiastic, vigorous, hearty, energetic, lively, spirited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,462 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Yeah, and I don't really get any of that in the piece. It's more reflective, slow and elegant. More like a hymn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,462 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Not really, no. "The Midway March", on the other hand.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrScratch 294 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 "Pops On The March" is pretty bad. There are very few JW pieces that I outright dislike but that's one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurassic Shark 12,023 Posted March 16, 2019 Author Share Posted March 16, 2019 It's certainly not great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not his best "short" piece, but not the worst either. _deleted_ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oomoog the Ecstatic 314 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Probably that march he got food poisoning and sick for a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will 2,215 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I actually find the Imperial March rather annoying. Maybe that's just because it's played so much though, not because of the music itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I had to surrender my Williams card because I mistook some library music from a car commerical for music from TFA and now we have a thread for people to hate on the Imperial March, March of the Villains etc? Give me your cards, all of you! Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
