  • Seriously, who is the idiot who disliked this video? Really? I am a music educator and assistant conductor of a university symphony orchestra, and I now think that Venezuela is heaven for music teachers. I dream of coming back in my next life as a Venezuelan kid with a music dream. This is inspiring stuff. I only wish we Americans weren't so proud that we can't learn from and emulate the successes of other countries. I am so proud and envious of these young musicians! They are living the dream!

  • holy shit.

  • Bravo young people! Brilliant. Maybe one day, when 'musical critics' can get their backsides out of their hands they can recognise that this symphony is more than a propaganda piece... it's a work of art!

    It has passion, thematic content, harmonic technique and great balance.

  • 6:37 So much emotion...

  • What can I say? Incredible...

  • 1:33 destroy the speakers. Dudamel really brings out the energy Shostakovich put into his music.

  • @padredemishijos12 Orchestras in Europe and the USA are paid enormous salaries. But, are they really up to the music on the day. Seldom. These young Venezuelan teenagers, who are paid nothing in the way of a salary, play because the music is in their hearts. As brilliant a performance as one is likely to hear.

  • @13katty13 The Shostakovich 12th was not composed for marching band in mind, mate. Why compare this talented orchestra of Venezuelan-born teenagers to some third-rate United States ensemble who parade around some football pitch in the hope someone will record them for YouTube.

  • Possibly the best ever performance of the Shostakovich 12th that I have ever heard. That includes the famous Mravinsky recording. Dudamel and his young charges are simply amazing. The "Teresa Carreno' Youth Symphony Orchestra could put most professional orchestras to shame. Bravo, Gustavo Dudamel.

  • Wow great stuff for a Youth orchestra? Not bad at all my friend! Even better, great. Lot better than some "professional" symphony orchestras in North America.

    Go Teresa, Go!

  • @bretg I think, this were persons, who don't have any idea of music...
