"Overture of 1812"

After listening to the music piece "Overture of 1812" I believe that it is a piece which could present different emotions based on the volume that it is listened at. Forinstance if listened to at a very high volume the sense of fighting and people dying all around you can be seen if you close your eyes. However when you listen to it a lower volume the sadness of war comes out. The feelings of death and that inoccent people are dying comes out. I also saw that the different parts of this piece follow the theme of war very well because in the music there are places where it will get real high and loud and then suddenly it will grow slower and lower. This directly follows war becomes one moment you could be thinking that the war is almost over and you had won when suddenly the fighting will begin again and more people will continue to die. Over all I believe the music piece "Overture of 1812" follows the events of war through its tone and its composure.
