What a fantastic concept. I watched the introduction of the winners before their trip to Australia and I have to say that I am really looking forward to catching YTSO concerts on my laptop. I have been a devoted follower of the fav classics since the age of 15. What a wonderful concept!
It's just that saxes were invented really recently in the world of music. And so most of the pieces in the classic repertoire just don't have sax parts written for them because they sort of didn't exist. But saxes are still pretty cool instruments. :P
Classical music is great because of its timelessness. Techno, rap, rock n roll, hip hop, and other types of music died or will die, but classical is classic.
@MarkTimchuk I hope this music will never die. But if we listen at music nowadays(everything is a fucking shit) , I regret to say that it's quite unlikely classical music will survive.
The music is so great, but why does the conductor have to launch into lengthy tirades every now and then...seems he is infected by Indian politicians...
Classical music endangered? no please, not while we'd exist; may I embrace the opportunity to ask if it be possible , interesting to anyone to continue what Waldo de los Rios, as I'd understand , wanted to do but he only got about 3 albums. "make classical music a little more striking , likeable, to especially very young kids not really from privileged homes as one of your young lads stated, he didn't ever see himself playing that kind of music, but there he is.

In my opinion, I believe the string instruments are the most difficult to play! If it's not well tuned it sounds like a dying cat, if the bow hasn't had rossin in a while it won't make a sound, If you don't exert enough pressure with the bow to the string it'll squeak! If it's too much it'll squeak even louder!!! If your new at playing it...ugh (like me) If you've simply not the talent it's a pain. OH and holding against your chin and collar bone...OUCH
Youtube, you rock. I love the photography and quality of all of these videos. They are almost as good as actually going to a concert! It is really cool to see all the different sections so close! Thanks so much keep up the good work
Not the easiest piece but you all make it a walk in the park! Simply awesome and Tchaikovsky would probably be satisfied as he download this in his grave. Truly an amazing group and surely the bar set is mighty good for the Sydney's batch!
Making people thrilled and happy from such well played music-- what a wonderful group of young, talented musicians! Thank you Google-YouTube for having this brilliant idea of creating a symphony orchestra from these tip-top musicians apparently from around the world! May the YTSO be with us year after year, enriching our lives and offering the chance for young people to fall in love with classical music (especially with Tchaikovsky, my favorite composer).
What a way to endeavor to save the performing arts!!! As an aspiring composer, this gives me hope that my work will be performed someday and as a vocalist I really hope that I get to perform with a group like this soon!!!
Does anyone know how old you have to be to audition for this? I just have no idea, and I can't find out on any websites. I would LOVE to do this if I could though!
I love this piece. I played this during my senior year of high school and it is amazing to hear it performed with this group. Thank you for the memory.
Imagine if you were the cymbals person for an orchestra. "Yeah I'm in this really famous orchestral group... but I only play my instrument for about two or three beats in the whole song."
Michael Tilson Thomas, You Tube Orchestra about a year ago, Pyotr Illyich Chaikovski. Simfonia IV. From Russia with love...one thing...it is just personal...but i think it is too fast in some places. Michael talks to the orchestra with his eyes and his baton, he communicates the piece. He is simply giving the orchestra their cues. He knows the piece so well.The orchestra are fine, remember this is Chaikovsky he wrote beautifully, with so much love and care. Charming. What did they learn playing?
no matter who plays them, the bassoon is like the most ridiculous instrument. Aside from that, great performance (and yeah yeah, bassoons are good too)
@TheOtherView Don't get me wrong, I fully enjoyed their playing, I just wish that I had a chance at attaining near-perfection like that. I was not being fully serious, my saying that was mainly a figure of speech, but I do slightly feel that way. :)
Sorry to say but you're stupid. As someone who has been principal percussionist of an All State Orchestra I can tell you cymbals are a very difficult instrument to master.
@dmh091 you are being snobby, of course it can be more complex than it looks, but it is clearly much easier than the most. I tell you i could play her part on the first go if i had the music sheet in front of me. Dont tell me giberish, if you think cymbals are a very difficult intrument, you are either being snobby or just never tried any other intrument.
@wartree i am sorry, but you are wrong. the crash cymbals take years to master. if you got the music; first, you would get lost counting 150million measures of rest, second, you would pocket almost every other note. and the ones you dont pocket, will sound like poo.
@cajunstix and the percusionist insist again, you know guys, it isnt only you guys that use rhythm, other instruments those who have the ability to play different notes also use the rhythm, and also use dynamics , etc, etc.
Dont come at me and say that cymbals are extremely hard to play. To master? Thats an overstatement, i dont know if any human being is in the right to sayi he masters something.
@wartree Nope. I'm the bass drum player here, and I can tell you that Michael Tilson Thomas demanded absolute perfection from the cymbal player. She was under the most intense pressure for this entire piece. I cannot tell you how many times she was singled out during rehearsals because MTT had a very specific cymbal sound that he was envisioning.
It takes years and years to be able to slightly alter your cymbal sound based on conductor's demands... and then replicate it 30 times.
Is the guy third from the left/ second from the right at the back playing a bass trombone at 4:40? I'm a bass trombonist, this is a great piece and it is superbly played!
