    We Asians usually think that "Central Asia" refers to the region where the five Stan countries are located, and the region you past on the K3 line of Beijing-Ulaanbaatar-Moscow railway is precisely not Central Asia, but North Asia and Siberia. If you take K9797/9795 from Beijing to Almaty, you will pass through Central Asia... welcome to asia

    @@slavish_superiority And you would be correct. Central Asia is most certainly made up of the five Stan countries of the Former Soviet Union, AND Afghanistan, at a minimum, but also Pakistan, depending on the viewpoint. Having worked in Central Asia extensively, this is also the view of most of the western world. Russians, however, view things somewhat differently.

    @@padgit8r486 I should be right. We East Asians such as China, Japan, Korea, Mongolia, Turks, Persian,etc., divide geography based on thousands of years of traditions such as way of life, inter-ethnic exchanges, folk traditions, beliefs, language, writing, natural law, tribes, states, and international alliances. Westerners are not qualified enough to judge our culture. The Russian concept of Asia, derived from the last 300 years of colonial expansion, is even less convincing.

    J Joe Townley We must remember, Borodin died way too young. He completed this piece, but he left his third symphony unfinished, as well as Prince Igor (I've heard that he wrote as much music for Igor as Wagner did for The Ring). His students and friends did what they could with the incomplete scores, but could not match his vision!

    5610winston You know your music history pretty well. Rimski-Korsakoff describes in his autobio how after Borodin died suddenly of a heart attack RK and Glazunov went into his flat which was occupied by half-dozen or so cats (Borodin loved cats) and found hundreds of scraps of music scores, hand-drawn staffs w/ music notes on the backs of napkins, menus, and just about anything Borodin could lay his hands on. They had to make sense out this chaotic mess and they did an admirable job. RK assigned G the job of arranging and orchestrating the overture so most of what you hear is G's handiwork, while RK set about to organize and orchestrate the scraps he found. It's a fascinating tale and the results, of course, are phenomenal.

    I had not seen this reply before tonight. Thank you. His achievements are especially remarkable when you consider that in addition to the cats, his flat was infested with a parade of family members (sometimes sleeping on top of the piano) and professional acquaintances from the Chemistry department, including Mendeleev, and that his flat was bisected by the access hall to a student dormitory. Most of my music history comes from liner notes from old LP's and CD's.

    That is a fair critic actually. If the listener feels starving for more then the composer did not exploit the material fully. Incidentally this is how commercial pop songs work with the masses, a few seconds of musical idea floating in the middle of nothing, and not developed or contrasted with another theme, then ends abruptly or in a downramping volume loop. The listeners is frustrated and repeats the piece over and over. Exactly as you did, you are a true product of the consumer society.

    Borodin's father was Georgian actually, though he was born out of wedlock and never legally claimed by his father and was raised in St Petersburg by his Russian mother, who also didn't claim him. But he wrote a lot about Central Asia in his music and showed influence of central Asian music in his work, e.g. this piece and his opera Prince Igor. He may have felt some kind of connection to it because of his Georgian blood, tough to say but neat to think about

It started in Venice then it took you to places with names likeTehran, Samarkand, Tashkent, Ulan Bator, Badakshan, Beijing and finally back to the US. There were other names, but I cant remember now. All I remember was the silks, Oriental rugs, spices, Beautifultreasures I would see if I went. Sadly, it would be 3,000 which I did not have

    Borodin was a very interesting man. He was not just a chemist, but a leading organic chemist and researcher of his age. Music was more or less a hobby for him. The general public (at least in the US) may best remember him today for his connection to the Broadway musical and film “Kismet”. Some of his beautiful melodies were adapted by Robert Wright and George Forrest, notably the songs "Stranger in Paradise", "And This Is My Beloved" and "Baubles, Bangles, & Beads". Borodin received a Tony Award for this show in 1954 despite having died in Russia in 1887.

    Thank you so much for this exotic video and the magical music of Borodin. The oboe haunting and melancholy with transitions to adventurous plucking traveling strings, and the deeper bassoon, crescendos and the handsome Asian rider coincide nicely. The central melody is romantic and lovely as the traditionally dressed Asian girl we get a glimpse of; the French Horn and oboe so warm and haunting. 💔❤️ a recorder at the end? Wonderful. Thank you so much for your posting this incomparable video and music!

    Borodin is vastly under appreciated in both the East and the West. One of the fathers of organic chemistry, he once commented that the ability to make love and compose music are two of God's greatest gift to man, but neither is suited to be one's greatest vocation. Also, a medical physician, he founded a great medical clinic.

    This piece possibly is possibly the best example of fusion music (European Classical and Eastern (Central asian, not far eastern)) that has been adapted to western classical music . Going by this piece, Borodin possibly represents the essence of Russian Music in that it is a blend of themes from western classical and melodies from central; which makes sense geographically too !!

    Ah Mongolia, so peaceful, so tranquil, and majestic. The fresh air, the endless deep blue skies, the endless sea of green grasses. Look at this group of Mongol herders galloping ever so gallantly down the valley, the shimmering orange-red sunset shining upon them - Wait! That's not the sunset - They're burning our crop fields to the ground! Oh fuck, now they're littering the peasants with arrows! Oh fuck, now they're besieging the city gates, killing everyone, run for your lives!

So although I knew it was written about Mongolia, I have thought of Afghanistan these last ten years. Thank you so much for this video. It is beautiful.

    First, I want to respectfully send my greeting to my Mongolian brothers. Much respect to your bravery and intelligence. Because of the Mongols, Russia and China became united and large. The Mongol Empire among the greatest in the world. Mongolia shares a prominent seat in the history of humanity. Ignore hypocrites who cast stones on the great Mongolian people.

    Mongolia did have an influence on China for a short while - but China absorbed the Mongols - China is after all China. The Mongolian Empire was large but it's influence cannot be compared to that of the Egyptian:Persian:Greek: Roman: China - under it's first Emperor Chin; who unified the ten states of China and of course the British Empire - which later became the Commonwealth. Of the magnificent Empires of India, the far East and the Americas I am aware but have insignificant knowledge to comment in a manner which would do them justice - except to say; all these Empires were built on the backs of the bones of the ordinary men who were it's soldiers and the misery of the peoples they conquered. The UK has been enriched greatly by people from our former colonies who have settled here - as can be seen by the 2012 Olympic Games:)
