[1elaine7]

Maravilha!

[gmorino47]

bellissima la musica il resto ..... beh lasciamo perdere

[vizmamob1]

c'est drôle comment une manière de jouer peux complètement changer l’ambiance de la mélodie ... je viens d'écouter un autre version , beaucoup plus mélancolique et noble, en comparaison a celle ci plus vive, enjoué et tape a l'oeil .

[calvingradchild2]

d'une tel puissance

[WanderingWotan]

O, for the love of God. As if seeing André Rieu for every PBS pledge wasn't enough, I have to find him on youtube also?!

[alexmax84able]

great show, great song

[zuk0vsky]

Una reunión de imbéciles confabulados para echar a perder una obra maestra.

[YULIAish]

@zuk0vsky  ¿de verdad q no te ha gustado ?

[malizlato]

How the hell you can dislike this???

[KAPNIZW]

One of the greatest melodies

[george52rus]

Why do people always have to hyperbolize fine music to the level of some bloody nonsense like this? Go listen to authentic Shostakovich, maybe it's not that entertaining, but much more heart inspiring, after all who said that art is enteratinment. And to those here who begin again and again talking about Russian history and communism in particular: please I beg you, leave our history alone, don't prove once again that you absolutely have no idea about history of Russia, ridiculous...

[walsallmatt]

@george52rus OH GIVE OVER - everyones having a great time , leave em be, i'd rather shin dig at this ANY DAY

[BondiBeachGirl]

[martijn4391]

This is in the Efteling I lif a few kilometers away from that

[MrPanikpanik]

Video is so far from the music. Drunk german inn instead of russian aristocracy and hight life.

[debiaptget]

The beggining was not that bad, but the rest... OMG.

[SergeyTsoy333]

At first, Shostakovich would have been very happy indeed seeing such large crowd all happy and singing. When the violinist enters an octave higher the way he enters, Shostakovich would have paused his breath for a second and then thought, "Oh, why not?" But when the trombone enters, he would have nervously smiled, looked around, looked at his shoes, and reached for a cigarette in his pocket. "They don't know what they sing about" (V.A.Berlinsky)

[ThePetergard]

Что вы дураки понимают нашей России? Вам остается только наслаждаться музыкой без комментариев.

[bigbobg3]

Just makes me smile.

[topolya1]

Beautiful Waltz, nice music and video,

Sostakovich i one of my favorite composers.

Thank You Mr. Rieu and orchestra for a nice interpretation,

Greetings from Canada

[ladyinred1100]

Whenever I have had a particularly hard day I come home and listen to this and all of a sudden things don't seem so bad. This wonderful man has the ability to bring joy and happiness xx

[saintkyoto]

fantastic beautiful etc..

[ronwshell]

drives me nuts!! can,t get it out of my mind,soul, what have you. just a wonderful piece of uplifting music. too bad the so called classic music station here in phoenix doesnt recognize shotacovich more.they are too pre occupied with tollemman,s brand of chamber crap!

[jcarlosgaray]

es hermoso ,fascinante , increible ,muy good ,de los sueños

[emadca]

happiness and harmony

[jonilitwin]

my favorite

[tabacoycerillas]

Fantaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaastico!!!

[periawong]

this is music.

[stikbow17]

Andre Rieu is without a doubt, the best violinist that is walking today. He can make music out of anything...an absolute talent. He is my idol. They looked like they were having so much fun preforming this!

[jeky1986]

Ich liebe dieses Lied ;o)

[pikaiti007]

I simply tear out?

[chelometi]

increible... me hubiese encantado estar ahí!

[morenavril]

this is music!!!

[kittykat45678]

i love this piece....i used to have to music for band but i didn't get a chance to photocopy the music before i had to give it back :(

[incognito710]

Can't believe this awsome video has so few views..thanks for sharing it ! It's one of the best here !

[S33ingS33ing]

Thank you for sharing it good music, composer and performing.

[artymowycz]

sounds like people were dying lol, wasnt watching the video when i heard it

[korolekkk]

think about it ,when you listen to this music.Thank you Andre Reu.

[heyforlife]

each time Andre plays this music, u can see people dancing, even in the Radio City, Albert hall, in between chairs, on stairs lol...all ages, it is irresistable :D

[haloktcb]

happy new year!!

[gregorymovilla]

que bonita pieesaa

[dornkrull22]

Andre's version is different from original intent.But,if it brings people to music(clasical) then bravo.Music is supposed to be fluid,like life

[dornkrull22]

Although somewhat contorted from the original intent.If ,Andre's version brings,or introduces more people to clasical music,then,I say bravo. Besides,music is always a fluid movement,like life

[cheamverdi]

Yes some music is just for entertainment-nothing wrong there. However much classical music digs much deeper and expresses the human experience.Just listen to Mahler, ,Mozart,Schubert. Interestingly ,Shostakovich's symphonies are about as bleak as you can get and are nothing like this waltz he wrote.

This version sounds more like J Last than Shostakovich. Why does'nt Rieu do a Shostakovich symphony like the 5th if he is good at the composer. Er..slight problem there I think for a singalong!!.

[cheamverdi]

I see Shostakovich is getting the Rieu treatment like Beethoven,J Strauss etc. He would be appalled as I am .There should be a law against Rieu runing classical pieces-would we accept a Rembrandt or Da Vinci painting being cut up and being made simpler for a mass audience? I think not.

Shostakovich wrote this as an ironic waltz. Like the Strauss waltzes,the music is totally debased into robotic lift music for singing clapping masses! I urge readers to please avoid this if they respect music.

[animesis]

the idea of music is for entertainment it always has been

[CarlinhosJazz]

This is the true vision of happyness

[Quasar3D]

Lijkt wel een nazi met dat limburgse accent.

[hanrooks]

waar kom jij dan vandaan??

[DeepSeaGipsy]

Andre Rieu i jego orkiestra .........przepięknie bawią się ta muzyką i to w tym wszystkim jest tak zjawiskowe.....

[jabedemi]

MEGA HIT

[vaniboy]

grandiose!

[spqrmor]

Dmitriy Shostakovich was genius! In fact this work named Russian waltz.

[tommie132]

Nice Trombone!!

[malizlato]

just once to see this in person...oh god

[dzemjagodowy]

Piękne,cudne wspaniałe,aż chce się żyć taki walc powoduje,że lubię nawet najgorszych wredniaków.Kocham muzę i życie,i ogólnie wszystkich .

[glouckx]

Ohhhh! Cuanto placer! Magnifico!

[RosebudliasCabochons]

Music is mean to be enjoyed. I enjoy this ... am I wrong? You know,  Proman84 - life is far too short to worry about how an orchestra plays a piece of music - the fact that this classical music is reaching so many ears is what's important ... yes?

[MusTheBunneh]

It's meant to be enjoyed, not destroyed... O_o

[csukafogo]

wonderfull..

[mazzaz100]

I love it... I listen to and see this waltz many times a day THANK YOU

[jespercu]

Me han dado ganas de llorar la verdad, pero no de lo que me encanta el vals, que es precioso sino del montaje. Me parece horrible como alguien se puede atrever a esta salvajada. Empezando por los músicos. Una cosa es el aire festivo del vals, pero otra muy distinta es la ridicula interpretacion.

[Diplomatica36]

Estoy de acuerdo, quiza es un poquito ridiculo el "montaje", pero ese es el estilo de la la orquesta de Andre Rieu. El siempre trata de que la gente se divierta y eso es lo que hace especial a su orquesta. Yo he ido tres veces a sus conciertos y la verdad me encantan, no solo son magicos por su increible interpretacion, sino porque hace del concierto un evento interactivo en el que el publico no solo escucha,sino canta y participa tambien en diferentes formas.

Andre te amo! Te veo en diciembre

[ChocolateORE]

Esto es WONDERLAND!

Es en Disney World, el tema es diversion e imaginasion, para ninos y padres, no es un concierto commun. Para eso tiene tanto dinero Disney, para gastarlo como se le de la gana, y parese ke Adre tambien le gusta.

Cuando tu seas un famoso artista, entonces tu haces lo ke se te de la gana.

[moderjoker]

el puritanismo es ignorancia

[ma7174]

I love the "Second Waltz", thank you !

[kawerty]

could be played slower tad abit

[Phoebe318]

Beautiful! <3

[SANNAFABICH]

You should show some respect for those musicians playing this wonderful piece. With such a beautiful melody there's no such things a "terrible". Perhaps just not your cup of tea. that's all

[proman84]

You know, I didn't mean any disrespect with my comment. The point I was making, is that they are butchering what I consider to be a good piece of music. You may consider this to be harsh but that's my opinion and it's criticism not an insult and if you want dig deeper the issue I have is not with their skill but with their take.

(and I have to say that it's a bit unusual talking about that is issue with someone with that kind of nickname but I guess it's alright).

[SANNAFABICH]

ok, fair enough, I can see your point. and what wrong with my nickname? :)

[asika3]

Wonderfull.....Just wonderfull..

[penaytristeza]

cool....fancy....and cool

[northerbrewer]

This so fluffy and light.

I do not like this.

There is a shadow over Shostacovich's music. Remove the shadows and and cover it in candy and icing sugar and you loose the man and the age he lived in

[philipchen1971]

Thanks for ur comment. I guess the SHADOW, which u refer to, is the communism period. It's really a disaster that twisted the soul of a normal man.

[ThePetergard]

Что вы дураки понимают нашей России? Вам остается только наслаждаться музыкой без комментариев.

[AnneMuun]

Thanks for uploading this video! I love André!

And it's fun to watch English subtitles and hear Dutch audio instead of the other way around :P

[philipchen1971]

[luperciodeprovidenci]

[azuljackson]

Me encanta éste Vals

és especial para mi porque mi esposo me lo dedicó y tiene gran valor sentimental

[Darkwaver007]

Der deutsche Titel wäre vermutlich "Walzer Nr. 2" - fälschlicherweise oft mit "Sekundenwalzer" übersetzt, weil oft übersehen wird, dass das englische "second" zwar "Sekunde" aber auch "zweiter" heissen kann...

[musilitica]

Me encanta, es todo un showman ademas de gran músico...

[Egsch35]

Wie heißt der Walzer auf Deutsch?

[Ami28]

Einfach nur wunderschön....

[NaviZelda]

Lol, in de efteling!! Je ziet op de achtergrond het schommelschip !! x"]

[princeyarmorkine]

juste le bonheur et l'élégence...

[Kavinskie]

Beautiful trombone solo xD and a cool song
