Zoom to 105mm Cannons being used in the Artillery Section of the orchestra :

2:32 Triumphant "GOD SAVE THE TSAR" + 11 Cannon blasts

I FIRST FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS PIECE ...... when my elder brother blasted this from his LP, hooked to a Sony amp, powering 2 HUGE Sansui speakers !!!!!

!!!!! WARNING !!!!!
Adjust volume to a comfortable listening level before BLASTING THIS CLIP.
You have been duly warned !!!!

Bought the CD years ago.

whose video I used as the main clip, and

AMANO Jun-ichi

whose clip I used to get interesting and wide angles.

Had fun syncing the clips to the original 1978 loud speaker-killer recording.

The last time I enjoyed this piece 'Live' in Japan, the bass drum was used to substitute the canon blasts.

Very thankful that the Eastern Army Band, 1st Band, 12th Band and 1st Artillery Unit of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force played the piece at a tempo very close to the original !!!!!!!!
Any quicker, it'll feel rushed. Any slower, sluggish.

What tickled me was
"The first crack-boom with a full pound of powder blew out the microphones. “All we heard was the tinkling of glass falling out of the windows in the building next door. Luckily, we had insurance,” said Woods."
