This is certainly the best collaboration video that I have seen during this pandemic time. Thank you Ulf and all the musicians involved, you are absolutely right, music is precious and hopefully it will come back to concert venues soon. Best wishes to all of you.
Iron Maidens Melodies can easily translate into a classical set like this. Absolutely awesome. I also never saw a Maestro use his feet in addition to his hands , lol . Up The Irons!
Most of the themes of metal are also used heavily in classical music. I'm sure musically Bach, Beethoven, etc would approve, maybe not so much on the subject matter
I think I am finally understanding why I have been listening to Iron Maiden for almost four decades, the songwriting talent in this band is just so flippin' epic.
Hello people of the world! I'm from Russia. Music has no citizenship, nationality, race or boundaries. What these people of art have done is invaluable! They showed that we, ordinary people, have nothing to share, there is no reason for enmity. The fear of the dark is an ancient delusion. Let's stop being afraid of the dark! Peace to all!
@@luisnunes2010 Yeah, I heard an '8-bit' version of Fear of the Dark, but it sounded like it was missing [the/a] vocal. This, on the other hand, didn't: possibly the cliché about the viol being closest to the human voice in expression.
As a fan of Iron Maiden (and metal in general) and symphonic music I absolutely love this! One of the most epic arrangements of a song I've ever heard!
This is top notch. These days metal is under represented, classical is under represented, and true musicians are under represented. Share this with everyone!
They don't need "over representation". Mainstream was, is, and always will be Trash. Just stop crying and listen the song, like a fucking man, God sake
@@Zanollo5 nonsense. The Beatles were as mainstream as it gets, just look at their sales while they were still together. Were they "trash"? You just don't like, or get, modern mainstream music. Doesn't make it "trash". Just let other people like what they like.
I raised my children on classical, metal, industrial, trance, etc..... you get the idea.... they are all musician's that actively pursue college degree's in various field's. Sent them each this video. They all loved it.
I'm begging! I've been saying it for years now! Please god please Iron Maiden play with a freaking symphony!!!! Your music is just built for that huge feel and this would be epic. This arrangement just shows how epic Maiden stuff can be with an entire symphony behind it and it would be one of those incredible moments in music history! Please please show the other rock bands who've done it how to do it for real!!!!
It's chilling in 1994 I heard this song for the first time and met Iron Maiden and since then I get emotional when I hear this song. Congratulations too beautiful
I feel very fortunate to be alive in the same time that Iron Maiden has made their music and been able see them perform it live. I have no doubt their music will be played for a long time even after they are gone from this world.
they all covered maiden passionately with amazing feeling, energy and intensity. conductor was really into it, especially while in the low-bruce horse stance and arm flailing action!! eddie would be proud!!! scream for me world!!!!
Привет из России! Greetings from Russia! It's always a huge huge pleasure to see an orchestra playing a metal song, especially of my fav band in this pandemic time. God bless all people over the World.
I'll never forget when the band "Rage" which is metal band out of Europe did an entire album with a full orchestra. They said, "It's really amazing to hear how much music is actually in our songs.".
In Turkish, we have a saying that can roughly be translated as "health for your hands". Yes, I wish health and every other positive thing for your precious hands, mouths, fingers. I know it is almost impossible but still wish that someday I can listen & watch all of you live on stage. Long live you all! Greetings from Turkey!
Great to see that musicians from nearly all over the world are playing this fantastic song from Iron Maiden to show the importance of togheterness during this DARK days - take care and stay healthy
I love it, I have listen to heavy metal since 1986 and I still love it. This version is fantastic and I play it all The time..fantastic to mix heavy and classic music..well done..
Special thank you to arranger Matias Eklund should be expressed, as though! To hear this gets better every time! A full cover concert would be a success for sure. I personally would be the first one to book tickets!
Damm! I wasn't expecting this to hit so hard on me... I must confess it brought tears to my eyes. This is HEAVY in so many ways! Thank you all for bringing such an amazing piece to life!
The best version and most brilliantly pieced adaptation of Fear of the Dark that has ever been done. I don't think that this can be topped, ever! Wow, just, wow...
The best prove that Maiden creates pieces of musical art that has to be replay all over the world, in every possible way it could be, beautiful just beautiful, Best to all of you around the world from Mexico...Up the Irons!!!👌
*Master Piece* I have been a Maiden Fan for over 40 Years don't get me wrong there are many Good and even Great bands out there. With that said there is Iron Maiden who sets the Bar for all others to follow. When you listen to this you see just how beautifully musical Maidens song really are, and this is with most all of them not to mention amazing story telling. No other band like them Period!
I, who have been to many iron shows here in Brazil, never thought I would cry when I heard "fear of the dark". Thank you for, in this pandemic moment, making our day better through this presentation. I wish everyone is well and safe. My English is not very good. Sorry for this!
I really love when classic instruments plays the greatest music of all times, 80s music is the best!!...metal from the 80s and the movie themes from the same era is the best!! Thanks for this great show !
My mother and Aunt listened to Iron Maiden when I was a kid in the 80s. So yeah I grew up on Classic Rock, Classic Metal and of course Hair Metal! I LOVE THIS! Wonderful jobs Dudes! Raise the Horns!🤘
That is amazing in every way! I can't even imagine the amount of technical work behind this - to get the connection, the sound, both on the recording and playing side... Unbelievable work! And it sounds really GREAT!
This is one of the best reimaginations of one of my favourite Iron Maiden songs! Many thnx to all involved for your effort, passion and love for music! Thank you all!!! 🤘🤘🤘
THIS IS IT. I've seen several wonderful orchestras cover this song, but none of them did an arrangement as great as this one. It evokes so much different emotions and tells such an amazing story through composition and every instrument and its harmony... It's just amazing how well you could express the power of music. This could easily be a soundtrack that completely overshadows the movie or videogame in which its used.
This is certainly the best collaboration video that I have seen during this pandemic time. Thank you Ulf and all the musicians involved, you are absolutely right, music is precious and hopefully it will come back to concert venues soon. Best wishes to all of you.
i'm the man
who walks alone
Pp
Linda ,emocionante, vracias
Linda emocionante, grácias mi amor, te amo
I’d almost be alright with another just for this opportunity 😂😂
It's a normal thing, Metal music is the natural progression of Classical music
The conductor is giving such a cool metalhead vibe
Imagine Bruce jumping out mid-performance: "Scream for me world" and continuing with the song
I think my brain would explode if i saw Maiden play with a live orchestra!!!
I can even see him 😂
I was hoping this to happen
Tbh, if Bruce likes controlling airliners [as he does], controlling an orchestra would just be something to tack on. Up the Irons!
Bruce with a suit on and volume at a reasonable level. Is what I was thinking.
Iron Maidens Melodies can easily translate into a classical set like this. Absolutely awesome. I also never saw a Maestro use his feet in addition to his hands , lol . Up The Irons!
You can see and hear, how Classic and Metal music can combine together in magic.
Absolute brilliant!
Most of the themes of metal are also used heavily in classical music. I'm sure musically Bach, Beethoven, etc would approve, maybe not so much on the subject matter
😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
As Yngwie proved back in the 80's... and ever since.
(No idea if he was first, but he definitely popularized it.)
Classic music is metal without distortion
No.
Sometimes the difference between "classical" and "metal" is electricity.
When someone asks why do we really need internet, show them this video.
Yes this is one a great reason why internet is good..but unfort. there are so many disadvantages too
Lmao🤣🤣🤣
BTW JUST SUBS TO YOUR CHANNEL....
LONG LIVE METAL🤙🤙🤙
Pienamente d'accordo
lol
Showing just how much respect for a metal band from the UK I’ve known all my life.
It’s increadible guys!!!❤❤❤❤💎💎💎⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🪬🪬🪬🪬🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I think I am finally understanding why I have been listening to Iron Maiden for almost four decades, the songwriting talent in this band is just so flippin' epic.
New album from them expected this year.👌
Indeed. They have an incredible chemistry as a band, and Steve Harris is a genius composer.
flippin' awesome dude !
@@seanmathews1826 they probably want to finish the lotbt first
Hekatos, Steve Harris is a demigod. Love that dude ❤

Well, sir from Russia) here you are right!
From Russia with 💘 , eh?
Charoshe! Spasibo! 👍
Мир людям всей земли❤
Hello i m from indonesia❤
this is the best symphonic cover of Maiden I've seen
This proves that metal is the classical music of the 21st century. Fact!!
The classical version could easily have been used for any historical or fantasy movie.
Absolutely!! Was thinking that all the way through. Amazing. MIND BLOWN!
Lots of game and film scores are just metal played by an orchestra. It's an open secret.
En eso estaba pensando, primero mostrar este video y luego mostrar el del concierto en RIO, Brazil y voilá !
@@luisnunes2010 Yeah, I heard an '8-bit' version of Fear of the Dark, but it sounded like it was missing [the/a] vocal. This, on the other hand, didn't: possibly the cliché about the viol being closest to the human voice in expression.
Pirates Of The Caribbean came to my mind while watching this.
As a fan of Iron Maiden (and metal in general) and symphonic music I absolutely love this! One of the most epic arrangements of a song I've ever heard!
Absolutely agreed. An excellent arrangement.
To everyone who mades this possible: You are awesome!!
This is a Masterpiece!!
Press it on CD!!
It must be saved for Next Generations!
Covid-19: I'll stop all musical collaboration and creativity.
Ulf: Hold my beer.
What covid piece of idiot-mind...🙄🤦
FU CCP!!!
Couldn't have said it better myself.
I love that you managed to catch Bruce's energy while conducting. A true mark of a conductor that loves his work.
This is top notch. These days metal is under represented, classical is under represented, and true musicians are under represented. Share this with everyone!
They don't need "over representation". Mainstream was, is, and always will be Trash. Just stop crying and listen the song, like a fucking man, God sake

Honestly, I thought the conductor looked like Eddie. Super duper AWESOME!!!
I raised my children on classical, metal, industrial, trance, etc..... you get the idea.... they are all musician's that actively pursue college degree's in various field's. Sent them each this video. They all loved it.
I totally just shared this with my band. They love it. I saw Maiden in Buffalo in 2019.... Finally after being a fan since 1983. This is great 👍
Que hermoso, me gusta 👍
What an amazing parent you are!!!❤extremely cultured, and passing on the gene pool in a positive manner!!👌
Can anyone imagine how this will sound full LIVE, with whole orchestral FORCE! BRILLIANT!
I've been an Iron Maiden fan for over 40 years. That was brilliant.
No, this IS still brilliant
What is your favourite album?
Also a fan for 40 years, it's mind-boggling how brilliant this really is and was. This belongs in a big screen movie, like Hans Zimmer level.
A concert that infinite dreams... Something to believe in the future.
I'm begging! I've been saying it for years now! Please god please Iron Maiden play with a freaking symphony!!!! Your music is just built for that huge feel and this would be epic. This arrangement just shows how epic Maiden stuff can be with an entire symphony behind it and it would be one of those incredible moments in music history!

Why not. Cause they did it first?
It's chilling in 1994 I heard this song for the first time and met Iron Maiden and since then I get emotional when I hear this song. Congratulations too beautiful
I feel very fortunate to be alive in the same time that Iron Maiden has made their music and been able see them perform it live. I have no doubt their music will be played for a long time even after they are gone from this world.
Very grateful to you all who involved and support in this collaboration which made a bridge from rock music to classical music
The conductor is a rockstar 🤘😜
And he kinda looks like Nicko McBrain :D
@@almadatrk in young hehe
Still dancing too...top
Nicko with long hair!
conductors where rockstars before electricity XD
they all covered maiden passionately with amazing feeling, energy and intensity. conductor was really into it, especially while in the low-bruce horse stance and arm flailing action!! eddie would be proud!!! scream for me world!!!!
The melodies, holy fuck. Crazy how many iconic hum alongs are in hidden in this song. Up the irons! Bravo!
Awesome!!!!!!!!! Best version of "Fear of The Dark" outside an Iron Maiden show!!!!!! Up The Irons 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
This is so emotionally impactful I'm crying while listening to this. As a Maiden fan, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Same here!!!
Up the Irons! |,,| 😂 |,,|
That's the power of music! Love every second of this!
Me too🤘
Me too!!!
In my opinion this is the best symphonic Maiden cover on RUclips. Thank you for sharing!
Yeahhhhh
GREETINGS FROM COLOMBIA, thanks for inviting to play!!
And ROCK YOU
Saludos desde Ecuador amigo colombiano .
How can anyone who listens to this not feel the POWER of music. Thank you Ulf, and all who put this amazing piece together!
Привет из России! Greetings from Russia! It's always a huge huge pleasure to see an orchestra playing a metal song, especially of my fav band in this pandemic time. God bless all people over the World.
This is why symphonic metal works too.
Brilliant.
Well, now I know how it feels to have goosebumps for eight minutes straight. Amazing job!
As a grown man in my 30th I literally started crying about the beauty of this. So much art and emotions suppressed in the last year...
I am in my 40's and I did the same =)
You’re not alone! Especially the intro
The refrain got me too
A present to the maiden fans. Wonderful.
I’ve been a maiden fan over 40 years , just showed my grandson who is 6 this video .. he said one word ‘wow’ priceless!
I'll never forget when the band "Rage" which is metal band out of Europe did an entire album with a full orchestra. They said, "It's really amazing to hear how much music is actually in our songs.".
In Turkish, we have a saying that can roughly be translated as "health for your hands".
Yes, I wish health and every other positive thing for your precious hands, mouths, fingers.
I know it is almost impossible but still wish that someday I can listen & watch all of you live on stage.
Long live you all! Greetings from Turkey!
Thank you from Argentina !!!
I mean no disrespect, what you said is truly lovely. However in English, your phrasing sounds a little creepy.
с ума сойти, как они добились такого хорошего звука, учитывая что у каждого была индивидуальная акустическая обстановка
I'm so sad that my mom had passed away two years ago before she had a chance to hear this angelic wonder!
Thank you for this amazing master piece!
Great to see that musicians from nearly all over the world are playing this fantastic song from Iron Maiden to show the importance of togheterness during this DARK days - take care and stay healthy
I love it, I have listen to heavy metal since 1986 and I still love it. This version is fantastic and I play it all The time..fantastic to mix heavy and classic music..well done..
¡¡¡Muchas gracias!!! Me honra que Colombia esté presente, saludos Maidens!
As soon as they started playing, Aragorn and the hobbits appeared. Daamn this is so good.
This is honestly one of the most incredible things I've ever seen or heard in my life. Thank you to all involved.
To the whole talented people that take part on this:
THANK YOU!!!, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
How to turn an epic Song more epic.
Wow! I can picture Bruce smiling at this & screams, "Scream for me You tube world!" This is so fuckin' awesome, i love it! 😍
It always amaze me how musicians can focus the conductor, notes and play at the same time
That French horn gives me chills. So beautiful.
Something new and unique cover. Thanks. Crazy good! An utmost thanks to the creators of the magic and modern wonder - The Internet.
This made me cry and smile at the same time, i always say good music is good music no matter what genre and this felt like pure magic !
So great and powerful music!!...i am a hardcore 70-80s Metal-head!...but this music is great !!...so, Thank you !!!
Это великолепно! Где ещё лайк поставить. Остаётся поделиться с друзьями.
This symphonic interpretation proves how versatile metal is -even more than many people assume...
Special thank you to arranger Matias Eklund should be expressed, as though! To hear this gets better every time! A full cover concert would be a success for sure. I personally would be the first one to book tickets!
doesnt matter if original, a capella, symphonic or any other cover. fear of the dark will always be the most epic piece ever created
Damm! I wasn't expecting this to hit so hard on me... I must confess it brought tears to my eyes.
This is HEAVY in so many ways!
Thank you all for bringing such an amazing piece to life!
Me too!
Standing and clapping BRAVO work. This represents the good of humane race. Bravo
Once again this is the evidence, that there´re only two types of music: good and bad.
THX for this performance. Great job.
The best version and most brilliantly pieced adaptation of Fear of the Dark that has ever been done. I don't think that this can be topped, ever!
Wow, just, wow...
I’m in total awe. This is the best rendition I have ever, ever heard. I applaud you and the orchestra for this outstanding performance.
if I was able to click thousand time thumbs up I will do it, great great amazing makes me cry!!!

One of my favorite songs ❤
I love it so much from Italy 🤟
Bravi!!!🔥👏
Thank you for inviting to play this wonderful music!
And the conductor channelling his Inner Bruce... wonderful!
The best symphonic version I have ever heard, thanks to all musicians throughout the world, from a corner of the planet called Chile
Das ist ein Meisterwerk, eine Symbiose von Orchester und Metal par excellence. Danke für dieses absolut perfekte Stück Musikgeschichte.
Por eso el METAL es música, no como la mayoría de las músicas urbanas que son solo ruido y sonidos empalmados.
The conductors dance moves are highly entertaining and this version is so fantastic!!!
Kudos to the sound technicians who had to mix and adjust and clean-up all the individual recordings.
Beautiful arrangement and performance. Makes me want to hear Iron Maiden play live with orchestral accompanyment
this totaly made my day. thank you. let the music bring us together and unite all people in the world
I, who have been to many iron shows here in Brazil, never thought I would cry when I heard "fear of the dark". Thank you for, in this pandemic moment, making our day better through this presentation.
I wish everyone is well and safe.
My English is not very good. Sorry for this!
Kudos to the sound engineers and whoever was in charge of the logistics. Probably a nightmare to set up this performance but beautiful result.
I really love when classic instruments plays the greatest music of all times, 80s music is the best!!...metal from the 80s and the movie themes from the same era is the best!! Thanks for this great show !
deep inside every orchestra member there's a little Maiden waiting for this....great job!
A beautiful musical symphonic composition additionally included in an epidemic situation. The wonderful Iron Maiden is always alive.
Bravo Ulf, Best conductor I have seen for a long while
My mother and Aunt listened to Iron Maiden when I was a kid in the 80s. So yeah I grew up on Classic Rock, Classic Metal and of course Hair Metal! I LOVE THIS! Wonderful jobs Dudes! Raise the Horns!🤘

Aż ciarki przechodzą. Równie dobre co oryginał.

It evokes so much different emotions and tells such an amazing story through composition and every instrument and its harmony... It's just amazing how well you could express the power of music. This could easily be a soundtrack that completely overshadows the movie or videogame in which its used.
Proof that you don't need rock inistruments to still sound metal.
Check out Van Canto.
The best Iron Maiden's music orcherstration I've ever seen! Congratulations to all 🤘👏👏👏
Absolut endlevel einfach nur perfekt...weiß gar nicht was ich sagen soll...einfach göttlich
Conductor Ulf Wadenbrandt thanks . 😁😁😁. world wide friends still live on.👍👍👍
