POP-UP : Muse and the Dance of the Knights

Okay, introducing Knights of Cydonia with the Prokofiev’s Dance of the Knights would be considered as an easy effect, but it works so well… don’t you ?

Muse : the stage entrance on the Dance of the Knights of Serge Prokofiev followed by Knights of Cydonia

Can’t we hear a little quote of the movie Close Encounters of the THird Kind (1’45) ?

Close Encounters of the THird Kind

B – C# – A – A low – E

 

Man with the harmonica followed by Knigts of Cydonia.

The same song with a different intro, like if Muse was saying « Cow-Boys are the knights of the modern time »

 

The Dance of the Knights excerpt from Romeo and Juliette of Serge Prokofiev

Well, we can admit it, the original version is not so bad too, don’t you ? Here the London Symphonic Orchestra is conducted by Valery Gergiev.

I’m really sorry, because I must to confess you, when I hear the Dance of the Knights, I always think to this advertisement

 


Pop-Up is a little chronicle presenting an idea linking classical music with pop culture. Little candy, you can consume it just for pleasure.
