The opening and closing themes from Tchaikovsky's famous 1812 Overture are featured in this full-sounding, yet easy arrangement.The conductor should work for a full, balanced ensemble sound in the opening Chorale. At m. 19 the Finale theme enters in the new tempo, Allegro Vivace. The eighth-note rhythms should be as precise as possible, and special attention should be given to articulation. Build to a climax at m. 39 and maintain this level of intensity to the final cadence. From m. 43 to the end, the ensemble should play with a slight separation between notes to achieve the proper effect and clarity.
