Pines of Rome, Movement IV, Pines of the Appian Way

[Orfeusmusica]

0:40 (ò_ò) arrrrr

[KakaPlanet]

I love this piece with a passion. This conductor's absolute fucking insanity conducting is what keeps me coming back to watch again.

[toAdmiller]

This piece is the reason for a symphonic orchestra to exist

[nomingonyourtoes]

ROTARY VALVE TRUMPETS FOR THE WIN!

[CatFlashBlue]

1:20 is that bass oboe or English horn?

[wwjd19jeff91ynwa]

@CatFlashBlue English horn (at least I think, I don't think there's a bass oboe used in this piece)

[enarolloyd49g]

This video went viral on Manila

[windstorm1000]

does anyone know how many 'auxilary' trumpets are used in this last movement? (not the three in the orchestra) Gives such a lucious, brilliant, massed sound

[windstorm1000]

I love the trumpets in this work--so freeing, brilliant, soaring.

[rubin1911]

Caesar after crossing the Rubicon ....This version I think beats the original Toscanni performance. thanks.

[meeman21]

conductor looks like he's about to pass out at the end

[contracode161]

CHILLS.

[AsquaredRom]

5:17 heart attack ftw

[vanderbiltsax]

OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­!

[vincentpollemans]

This is the best version there is on YouTube!

[Arghira]

you can actually hear the conductor at 3:21...I love this

[TheUndacovabrotha]

Ha you can hear the conductor yell at 3:22

[PacRimJim]

Wow! THAT is tutti crescendo. My hair is standing on end. I can feel the power of a Roman legion marching down the Appian Way.

Interesting side note about the conductor, Georges Prêtre: His interests include riding, swimming, aviation, judo, and karate (Wikipedia). So you know he gets exactly what he wants from an orchestra.

[elStrauno]

....conducting is overrated hahahaha :)

[AsquaredRom]

what kind of trumpet is that at 4:07 ??? it has french horn like valves

[WenchesOfRedemption]

@AsquaredRom That would be a rotary valve trumpet

[AsquaredRom]

@WenchesOfRedemption zank you sir

[alabalaportocala29]

I don`t like the part after 5:41

[heidiclaire]

I want to like this five million times. Such a relentless march, and such a satisfying resolution! I will forever love this piece (and silently wish it was choral)

[marochima2]

even if i watch this 100 times, i will still be amazed. i love it!

[alotosnit]

Thank you very much. For me its probably best performance of Pines of Rome I´ve ever heard. Intense, exact, strong... I hope someone post again all four pieces together...

[AIPThePharaoh]

treasure of humanity:) wonderful, magnificent !!! BRAVO!!!

[Jadama0]

Thanks for re uploading!! I was afraid! O.o Such a great piece.

[SirGlennGould]

4:29 The persussions section is pounding the hell out of their instruments !!!!

[WenchesOfRedemption]

In case anyone is wondering, I took the liberty to upload the same videos. Except I don't have the second movement. 'Tis a shame the uploader took them down ;(

[alotosnit]

@WenchesOfRedemption Its shame for those who force him (or her) to do it.. I really don't understand why, because it is not something you can buy (as far I know) so there is no reason to ban it.

[WenchesOfRedemption]

@alotosnit Exactly. And this is such an amazing performance. By far the best recording I could find on youtube.

[berorocao]

The best version of this movement, ever! Tks a lot!

[Arghira]

I'm glad to find this again thx

[trumpetman923]

Yes!! Thank you for uploading this again as wcip1Angel already said. This is the main recording I'm using for my college audition next week.

[tandycampbell]

Absolutely freaking awesome.

[wcip1Angel]

Thanks for re-uploading this. I thought I'd never hear and see this version again after it was removed from Youtube a couple of weeks back. :) This is by far the best version available on Youtube. Conductor is absolutely insane. :)

[joemoma184]

@wcip1Angel That's where it went! haha i was wondering where this video was
