Incredible high school musicians from Venezuela! Led by Gustavo Dudamel

Shostakovich 10 is my absolute favorite....this is amazing

ya, that's true, but i still dont get why he said that he's the 'greatest young conductor' in the world, as long as you are able to lead the piece properly, how can you exceed the barrier, and make the piece better than someone else could?

An Orchestra without a Conductor is like a Ship without a Captain. Or a Pilot withour a Navigator....you get the idea. I am NOT a musician myself, but I love Classical music.

Gracias a Dios, Venezuela tiene la musica entre tantos recursos y es renovable!
Gracias a Dudamel la musica latinoamericana se esta extendiendo en el mundo entero como nunca y con una gran dimension.
Feliz por Venezuela

Just think of what would happen these 100 or so musicians got up on stage and started to play this symphony without a conductor. The conductor is the most important person up there. It's his or her direction to the musicians that brings the piece to life.

if that does not inspire you ! what will?????

Dear God this is amazing. And to think they're only giving me 15 minutes with my 6th grade band twice a week. Our country is backwards. The focus is all on math and science.

If my high school's orchestra had been this good, I definitely would have attended more concerts.

If you can't understand what the conductor is doing up there then you aren't a musician, i'm a musician and i can understand his style of conducting.

OK I'm not trying to be stupid or anything, I'm a musician myself, but what are conductor's jobs up there, i really cant understand what they're doing, they kinda just look silly.....
