Hallelujah, perhaps playing Shosta no.5 with the chamber orchestra ???? But right this passage comes often as a "mass fart" not as a "dark march" as it is thought for. And the conductors contribute to this "mass fart" as it the passage cannot be loud enough for them = misunderstandings after misunderstandings by anti-artists. ===========================================================

What an effect! Only 18 bars long but very well placed. That is just one of the most wonderful works - the way the few ideas are worked and re-worked and put against each other - pure magic. I want that music at my funeral and NO CUTS!
