Tuesday Tunes Day – March of the Street Musicians

Yes, repeating a photo from before, but only because it was the first thing to come in mind after reading this fun post from wsj2day.

That got the mind spinning on what kind of marching band would all of these assorted players make?

And since it’s Tuesday, had to search for a fun tune. While the ‘Week in Review in Song!’ included “Flight of the Bumblebee,” I knew that was the wrong classical note for this month of ‘march.’

So, I present to you the joyful piece, Tchaikovsky’s “March of the Toy Soldiers.” It has a more uplifting beat than say,  Slavic March for orchestra no. 31. Although, his Seasons: March ‘Song of the Lark‘ can be soothing, too.

 

How do you like your Tchaikovsky? Among my many favorites, this ranks as tops!
