1812 Overture is a classical concert piece that has cannons wrote into the sheet music

That’s fucking insane.

It was written to commemorate the defeat of Napoleon, which was kind of a big deal.

It’s so much fun to play this piece to an unsuspecting audience.

I’d be getting pretty suspicious once I saw the cannons though.

Beat me to it 😂

Well it WAS written in 1880, which was during The Great Binge when everyone was on every drug at all times 😁

Man why can’t I have been born in a wealthy family of that era, get fucked and go listen to the opera or frolic in perfectly manicured gardens, sounds great.

I actually think that part of the reason for all the drugs was because they got so very bored with the frolicking and needed something to make it more interesting 😉
