  • another excellent strauss polka, i have an old 78 of this tune with the "thunder and lighting" almost as loud as the real thing.

  • Wow wish i could hear that.

  • @THEiNG2011 Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.

  • What is he cueing at 1:18 when he twists his arm all weird like that?

  • Looks like it's the cymbal crash followed by the drum beat that he is not happy with.

  • Wonderful!!!!

  • Sfz! Go on those man, nice accidentals and dynamics in the beggining. ;) I'm learning this for a competitiion. Love the ending, but he should've put more emphasis on the eigth notes at the end and let the flutes/clarinets come out more.

    STILL AWESOME.

  • Austria is not a very big country but it is full of treasure and good things everywhere you look. The environment is beautiful, the lakes, mountains, the Cities, food is delicious here and of a good quality, people are very peaceful even if not always in a good mood. :D ...

    But one of the very best things here is still by far this Orchestra. :D I wish I could see them live sitting in the very first row someday:D makes me really proud our country. Thanks for this wonderful music also.
