Brian May's "Il colosso" [QueenConcerts]

mbr 17.12.2007 17:23	Hello, I've a question: anyone knows what pieces of classic music are used in this song? I can recognize the final part of Tchaikovsky's Overture 1812 (which was used by Cozy Powell in his drum solos too), but I can't recognize any other (for example, the beginning of the song). Thank you very much and sorry for my bad Engish... ;-)
vonkeil 17.12.2007 23:35	guess there's some Richard Wagner in there as well, but I might be wrong
mbr 18.12.2007 16:44	Yeah, it's true, Ride of the valkyries :-). But there are still more pieces. I'm almost sure the beginning of the song is one of them. Thanks!
