Yevgeni Mravinsky

Кино-концерт 1941

Following the success of the Art of Conducting-Great Conductors of the Past, this second edition focuses on a further six of the twentieth century's greatest conductors, complemented by commentary from music personalities who knew the artists firsthand. Rare film clips are also included of Herbert von Karajan, Hermann Scherchen, Andre Cluytens and Vaclav Talich.

The video, titled "Mravi marksisti marljivo marširaju (Puževi pažljivo prelaze put nightcore Lenin remix)," humorously blends a slow-burn, arthouse approach with playful, "conceptual art" vibes. It features ants, likened to Marxist workers, marching with diligence—an ironic commentary on collective labor, set against a nightcore remix backdrop. The remix and slow, intentional pacing turn the mundane journey of ants into a symbolic crawl, invoking grand themes of struggle, endurance, and… possibly nonsense.
