Prokofiev: Romeo and Juliet, No 33 Mercutio dies (Valery Gergiev, LSO)

[therealcritic28]

Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic . . . you can HEAR Mercutio in this piece.

[Chazoboist]

Sir Simon Rattle: Good conductor and interpretations

Gustavo Dudamel: Makes funny faces and is promoting youth music education.

Valery Gergiev: Probably the best conductor alive. Antics and techniques are priceless.

London has become the new Vienna.

[zzzzzzzzzz202]

yeah nice camera work, but why not show the percussionists once in a while

[BoxOfMyMind]

Is there a specific name for when the stringed instruments tap their bows on the strings, like at 0:13 ? Because I love that sound.

[yueandme]

@BoxOfMyMind It's playing col legno.
