AND PLUS THIS ENTIRE WEBSITE WAS COMPLETELY INCORRECT ABOUT 1812 OVERTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE ORIGINAL PREFORMANCE WAS W/ BELLS AND CANONS AT THE END, NO CHOIR IN THE BEGINNING ONLY AT END, FASTER TEMPO IN MOST OF THE "FAST" PARTS IN THE SONG ESPECIALLY AT THE END - END!!! THE THEME IS NOT BASED OFF OF THE FRENCH NATIONAL ANTHEM, AND THE PART WHERE THEY HAVE THE THEME W/ CANONS AT THE VERY VERY END, THAT COUNTER MELODY IS GOD SAVE THE TSAR!!! TCHAIKOVSKY WAS NOT GAY!!! HE HAD 3 WIVES (NOT AT THE SAME TIME!!) AND NO, SOMETIMES THEY DON'T EVEN GET BELLS!! WHY? BECAUSE THEY SUCK LIKE THAT!!!!!!!!!!

Even if they're not using true carillon, they'll still use bells of some sort. There are a number of versions without the cannon, but I don’t think you’ll find one without bells at the end.

The reality is that the piece would be SO MUCH better if it DID NOT include the stupid bells and cannon explosions during the climax. Is their a rendition that eliminates these ridiculous elements?

Please say it's me! <em>Actually</em> in pretentious classical music circles, a positive review of the 1812 Overture would probably be one of the most pedestrian writings I could do.
