Completing Turandot Pt. 4 - New Tin Themes
I'm a composer, so I like to compose my own themes--and not just reuse Puccini's. But if you listen closely, some of mine have subtle musical connections to his that help connect our new ending to the rest of the opera.
Side note: now you know why I'm a composer, and not a singer/pianist!
Washington National Opera's production of 'Turandot', with the new ending by Christopher Tin and Susan Soon He Stanton, opens at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts on May 11, 2024. Directed by Francesca Zambello and starring Ewa Plonka/Marjorie Owens (Turandot) and Yonghoon Lee/Jonathan Burton (Calaf), conducted by Speranza Scappucci.
Turandot was Giacomo Puccini's final opera, but he died before he could finish it, leaving scattered sketches. On the 100th-anniversary of his death, this newly commissioned ending seeks to resolve one of the biggest plot dilemmas in the opera canon: how to justify the love between the opera's two adversaries: the steely Princess Turandot, and the heroic Prince Calaf.

Completing Turandot Pt. 3 - Calaf and Nessun Dorma
Переглядів 11 тис.3 місяці тому
"Nessun Dorma" is one of the most famous arias in all of opera, but if you think about it, it doesn't exactly portray its singer, Calàf, in the best light. He's solved Turandot's riddles, and is ready to take her as his unwilling bride and now, he's gloating about it. So how do we make him transform from an arrogant young man, into a mature adult that even Turandot can fall in love with? By rec...
Completing Turandot Pt. 2 - Puccini's Leftover Sketches
Переглядів 2,4 тис.3 місяці тому
On his deathbed, Puccini left scattered sketches to be used for the completion of his final opera 'Turandot'. But what do you do when the libretto has been rewritten, and those sketches no longer match the words? In this video I discuss my approach to using as many Puccini fragments as possible: through recontextualizing them. By doing so we create a dialogue, and tackle one of the thornier pro...

Come to Sydney Australia!
We are all Lucky to be witnessing here... A Glimpse! Just a Glimpse... Of what Humanity COULD become! And surely... That is worth fighting for!!! ❤❤❤ I just hope that I live long enough... To see it!!!
to jest super
Who's here August 2024🥺🌹❤️🔥
Civ 4 was classic
Tears of joy. Thank you <3
Your music is incredible! Thank you for warming our hearts!
I wish the CIA translator had put the English and other options on these.
This song is much more than about taking flight. For me this song evokes dreams. Always go for your dreams however impossible it may seem to others.
New Civ 7 Theme incoming!!! 🎉
The woman solo didn’t do it for me.
Is this exact version available on Spotify?
This is the greatest song of the 21st century, so far.
What version of Age of Empires did I just see?
the best one
Civilization 4 hahah
It is civ 4
None, it's Civilization IV
what is that jar shaped instrument that makes those water drop sounds?
Udu
I am genuinely more excited for the new CIV 7 theme than the actual game.
This song is The Lord's prayer in Kiswahili. Only Swahili speakers will understand. Love from 🇰🇪
UAU ❤
Silchar Civilisation 🎉🎉🎉🎉 0:31 😊.
i can’t find the spotify version with this amazing singer, helpp!!!
Mr. Tin - we missed you at Cadogan Hall in London in 2016! Are you and your amazing ensemble coming back to perform for the Civ 7 launch in 2025? If yes - we are gonna be among the first to get tickets!! Do try to make it okay?? 😀
Ive been coming back to this video ever since I was 8. So much has changed in my life but baba yetu still goes hard
No importa el ánimo que tenga un día. No importa si estoy desanimado o melancólico. No importa si estoy enfadado con algo. Esta canción y su interpretación me ponen de buen humor y con ganas de ponerme manos a la obra con la vida. ¡Muchísimas gracias, estoy super agradecido!
I have already enthusiastically commented as my alter ego, and as this is the only real me, I want to thank you again for this. I have watched and enjoyed every version on UA-cam.
Still one of the greatest game songs created, praise to Christopher Tin
He is coming back as the main music director of civ7!!!
I like how in a 3 minute music video this is able to show us how far humanity has come.
2:53 : Goosebumps. Amazing.
Love this song, love it. Wonder what you and Jon Bellion would come up with it
If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it. - William Arthur Ward
😭😭😭😭😭 beautiful ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Gosh I'm so pumped to learn that you're composing the music for Civ7 Chris!
Who is here August 2024❤
Thank you so much for a monumental piece of music. I heard this back when I purchased CIV IV, I used to sit at the menu screen and just listen to it. I am amazed by how many covers there are of this on youtube.
Can we just appreciate Christopher Tin for liking all of the comments? What a swell guy ❤
Christopher, I don't know if you'll ever get to read this but I'll leave it here for the aliens or the future A.I. to find. Christopher Tin, you are one of the great bridgebuilders of our time. Connecting videogames to reality, letters to music, prayers to song, the bridges you build allow a flow of admiration and affection to connect with aspects of our modern lives that would otherwise be quite separate and insulated. It was very emotional for me to see so many videos of Africans singing Baba Yetu. Entire villages sometimes. A song that was "just" an inspiring main menu banger for me, but it had such visible impact on others. To this day, I go on an hours long Baba Yetu sidetrack on youtube sometimes. And with Sogno di Volare, the dreams and fantasy of a genius long ago. The lyrics are hopeful, longing but the music crecendos in what I can only describe as a reveal of success, a dream fulfilled. The singers recite the dreams of old but the musicians reveal our human capacity for success. So a bridge not only between letter and music but within that same piece, a bridge between the times. We can't always see the bridges you build but we travel them nonetheless and they nurture us. Inspire us. Thank you.
Thank you, you’re very kind!
