1812 ... The 1812 Overture.
Tchaikovsky composed the 1812 Overture in 1880. It was created to commemorate Russia's defense against Napoleon's invading army in 1812, and it premiered on August 20 of that year. The piece is known for its powerful orchestration and the inclusion of cannon fire and church bells.
The 1812 Overture was composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovski in 1882 to commemorate Russia's defense of Moscow from Napoleon's army at the Battle of Borodino in 1812. No less than 16 cannon shots are composed into the 1812 Overture.
If Rossini's music had to be summed up into one word, I think the best word would be 'loud.' Rossini is affectionately known in music circles as 'Senor Crescendo.' 'Quaint and truculent' are biographers' descriptions of both Rossini himself and his music. His music is further described as having 'humor, grace and vivacity.' Rossini composed 13 operas in his 30 year career. Among his most famous ones are The Barber of Seville, Othello, and William Tell. Part of the William Tell Overture gained fame in the 1950s as the theme to 'The Lone Ranger' TV series. This theme ranked second only to the theme from 'Dragnet.'
The 1812 overture was written in 1880, in Russia, to commemorate the Battle of Borodino.

It's a concert overture written in 1880 in remembrance of the Battle of Borodino in 1812, for a first performance in Moscow on the 70th anniversary of the battle. The logistics of church bells, orchestra, band and cannon-fire prevented the first performance from taking place. It was premiered that year, but in a conventional orchestration without the additions.
