I guess after all we need to rethink whta really means for us the other people.

I think Dudamel and the youth orchestra being so good says a lot for what subsidization can do.

@MrPorVenezuela Hey genius how come no one ever heard of Venezuela before Chavez..........Oh ya a bunch of remade women who were made into Miss Universe. Music did exist before President Chavez, but it was the Bolivarian Revolution that liberated the Venezuelan society which produced the extraordinary musicians. The musician's families received social benefits such as free healthcare and education an in effect a political voice and politica power which the Venezuelan oligarchy lost.

The "Orquesta Sinfonica Juvenil" (Joung Symphonic Orchestra") exists long before Chavez. He and his corrupt government has lowered the existing high level of that orchestra. Dudamel's knowledge was not built by Chavez's regime, but by prior democratic teachers, including Rodolfo Saglimbeni and José Antonio Abreu (IMHO the real creator of this orchestras). Want to evaluate the dictator's result in music ? Must wait a few more years. (Sorry for my English)

@padredemishijos12 PS. Who can afford music lessons at 50 euros per hour over a period of 15 years? Each musician in the BPO has at least 150,000 euros of music education invested in each musician IF NOT MORE. Even though the best professional orchestras are in Austria, Germany and the Netherlands, the best youth orchestras in the world are by far in Venezuela, as withnessed by the tour of the Teresa Carreno Youth Orchestra tour of Europe last year. THEY ARE REALLY GOOD.

Happy New Year

@vittoriostoraro He is very lucky to have been born in Venezuela where all of his music education was paid for by the (Chavez) government. Currently there are 400,000 Venezuelan kids studying classical music comming from poor families, ALL FREE. Dudamel is very lucky to not have been born in Europe, and even luckier not to be born in the USA.

Da haben Sie einen der langweiligsten und kitschigsten Teile dieser Symphonie ausgewählt.
