This fits the movie so well. Morricone was a genius. There’s a lot more to the wah wah lady than you think. It’s not a sax, it’s a cor anglais from the oboe family.
@@david-xr4oj Truly Brilliant since he had a very small and limited budget for this piece...(check it out sometime) and created this Masterpiece of music. That's talent.
Fun facts. 😊 That concert hall cost 1.4 billion Danish kroner, (20,043,139 US$), which exceeded the budget by 250%. 😂 It is built specifically for radio and TV recordings, it is literally one big sound studio. Even the fabric on the chairs has the same resonance as a human, so if there are empty seats (which there never are) you won't be able to hear it. The horn was a English horn a instrument in the oboe family.
Everything Danes build go over budget and over time, just wait and see with that tunnel to Germany, though i am told the bridge to Sweden was not such a case. Also the concert hall was donated by Maersk if my goo serve me right, but they would probably gladly have used tax payer money to build it just like to pay the musicians here
@@pliashmuldba Maersk's gifts are a huge tax scam, all Danes are going to pay for Maersk's 'gifts'. When Maersk 'donated' the Opera House in Copenhagen's harbour, Maersk got a bigger tax deduction than the Opera House cost to build. 😂
@@Alhem11 Yeah they are looking out for #1 in any way they can. And Danes are getting screwed over, though there are of course much worse cases of that like Russia and North Korea. But that is of course not countries Danes should compare to. I have not voted for a few decades now, but i am active working to bring new parties forth that is a little sane, i would vote for CUZ i am a big fan of democracy. I have worked under DIS ( Danish International Ship register ) A thing Maersk set up in the late 80ties with his minions, and that too was absolutely not a + for Denmark or Danish sailors, and a few years later many of us sailors was also fired. So today Danish ship's sail around with Danish flags on them, but you be hard pressed to find a Dane working on those ships.
@pliashmuldba Honestly, it's not just "everything Danes build". It's the curse of mandatory licitations, where the cheapest bidder often wins. It's not a Danish thing, you will find it everywhere.
The DR Konserthuset in Copenhagen is one of finest acoustical tuned concert facilities in the world plus the Danish National Symphony Orchestra and Choir were voted the best worldwide in 2023. Have attended their concerts there many times.
When this was first shown to Tuva Semmingsen and Christine Andersen, they were told it just went viral at 2 million, and by the time they looked at it, the numbers jumped to 8 million, and now it is one of the most played videos on RUclips. The second song is Ecstacy of Gold, which Metallica plays for every opening of every concert.
Bear in mind when the original score was recorded there was not a lot of money for such things so it was cobbled together with just a few instruments. In my opinion The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the pinnacle of Westerns and concludes a fabulous trilogy - Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars more and then this...excellent
They were really awesome, actually.”! Glad they were recommended. It’s been a lot of fun discovering so many new artists. A lot of those coming from you!
@@Killermcknight It's always good to broaden your musical horizons. I think it's important for a reaction channel to constantly discover new artists. Of course, it's impossible to keep up with all artists on a regular basis, but you might find a few gems that you continue to follow. After you've reacted to Zhou Shen I'd like to recommend another Chinese singer/musician: Hua Chenyu. A good start would be his cover/rearrangement of the song Nunchucks: ruclips.net/video/lLs-0A0yEuA/видео.html (the channel owner added English subs). He is extremley versatile and sings many genres. You can never know what to expect from his next song. I think you need at least three very different performances from him to see if you like him or not.
This may have already been answered, but the solo instrument at the beginning of the second movement is an English horn, which is a lot like an oboe but pitched lower.
This Orchestra is my favourite Orchestra they are diverse and just have music in their veins, they were brilliant in the live performance of Procal Harems lighter shade of pale, the Danish National Orchestra is top notch,
I don't know why Ennio Morricone did it, what nerve in my mind or body he strikes, but I admit - I cry ugly to The Ecstasy of Gold every time. It's just so incredibly beautiful.
Great reaction and love the fact that you picked that mic out!! This is a well done peice all around 👍BTW that strange thing he's playing is an Oboe, member of the reed family of instruments, cousin to the clarinet. Thank you for sharing Muse
This was Christine's first performance with the Orchestra... she was the blond soprano. Tuva was the "wah wah/whistling" lady and a marvelous singer herself.
WE are very proud of our DNSC, they are insanely talented and you really should take a deeper look into them on their channel, you'll find ALOT of movie scores and Videogame performances.. i mean ALOT...
Like all symphony orchestras they do regular classical concerts to a high standard. What makes them stand out is that they also do these type of concerts dedicated to music used on movies, musicals, tv shows and videogames. The wah wah lady features in several of those concerts which I have seen pretty much all of them because they are also released on Bluray. The one that is still missing is the Vikings concert. Plenty of official videos provided by the orchestra but the one you definitely should check out is Who Wants To Live Forever (from Highlander) and sung by our “wah wah” lady.
I had a collegue who went to watch them pretty much every time they set up a new piece. Back then I hadn't seen this and I didn't believe what he said about how good they were. Now I'm so envious... I really should travel down there and watch them live some day.
The birdhouse is an Orcarina. Originated from Central America and the Andes, played for over 4500 years until European colonization. Made of clay terracotta. Now professionally played in china, japan and korea.
I heard somebody say that Morricone used birdsong for some of the sounds. It is not true, but he was definitely trying to capture the sounds of Nature in the Wild West.
This video is a great example how an orchestral music is made. A note by note by the composer (in this case Ennio Morricone; a genius) and the Danish Symphony Orchestra absolutely are showing us how every and each musical instruments along with the vocals are muxed together in a grand song. This video is a learning experience.
Classical music orchestras and choruses don't use boom mikes! Symphony halls are acoustically designed so microphones are not necessary. (Though you might have seen recording mikes since this concert was being recorded.)
Sure I understand the concept of a music hall and how acoustics work in the design of those halls. I didn't think they were using them for the audience in attendance but they were suspended above the choir for recording like you mentioned. It's the only way we'd be able to hear the concert with great clarity on the internet.
@@Killermcknight Absolutely! Here is a commentary about how Frank Gehry (a fellow Canadian) designed the Disney Hall in Los Angeles: ruclips.net/video/CCZ6KWyNyUw/видео.htmlsi=GB4RvFLwjrpTO8Sg
You should listen to their National girls choir as well. You would be surprised at the level of excellence. Try the DR Pigekoret sing Magnum Mysterium(Lauridsen), Blackbird, River(Joni Mitchell) or Come Out and Play. They are all excellent. Or listen to the slightly younger choir DR Juniorkoret sing White Water Hymnal. The choirs really deserve to be better known as they are phenomenal
Not to rain on the Waa Waa ladies parade... she is a very talented vocalist. But the waa waa sound is actually supplemented by a harmonica to give it that unusual vibrato. You can see and hear it at 3:34.
Hi guys I enjoyed this but I think you should check out the spaghetti western orchestra playing at the royal Albert hall in London that will blow you mind completely
The double reed instrument was an English horn, sometimes called cor d'Anglais. It is distinguish for being neither a horn nor English. It is part of the oboe family.
If you know the movie, you can't hear this music without thinking about scenes in the movie. The greatest Western of all time, and it definitely wouldn't be the same without Ennio Morricone's soundtrack 👍
I've had the movie on TV probably a dozen times. My wife always gets on my back when I have it on again until I tell her I'm not watching the movie, I'm listening to the soundtrack.
They invited John Fogarty of CCR fame to europe in 2010 to "Night of the Proms" where a full symphony orchestra from Belgium/Netherlands backed him while he sang and played the song " Put a candle in the window " they do it with many famous artists each year and it's really worth a listen if you love music, one of those give you chills moments, Regards, Mark from Australia
Hi guys! You need to watch 'Once Upon A Time In The West' from the same concert! You will see more strange instruments. and hear much more from the harmonica and the 'Wah-Wah' lady (Tuva Semmingsen)..! 🥰 The DNSO cover all genres - their Star Trek suite is amazing too!
I think you might like listening to Hazel O'Connor-Will you. It's an 80's song but lots of people still enjoy it. It's a poignant soulful song, but the sax solo is one of the best that you'll hear. If you do listen to it, don't be fooled if it appears to end when the music first winds down. There's more.
Only to clarify the conductor is not there for show and her (in this case) big contribution comes before the performance the conductor decides how to play the piece and gives the orchestra instructions during the rehearsals I don't know if in this case since it's not a classical piece she made little changes to the arrangment maybe not.
Why would the chorus have "boom mikes"? (or any other variety... Classical performers are used to singing direct to audiences without amplification. (The "wah wah" and whisting is a different case, of course). Classical singers have the power and technique to fill a concert hall, unlike pop "stars". Not a saxophone, a cor anglais (related to the oboe). A standard orchestral instrument. This orchestra does live concerts of film music as a feature; check out the other Spaghetti Westerns (Once Upon a Time in the West is great!).
Hi guys, I really enjoy hearing your reactions to some of the 'old' stuff. If I could make a suggestion, please check out a video of a singer named John Farnham. He's considered a national treasure dpwn here in Australia where he is known simply as 'The Voice". In 1989 I was at a concert that he did with the Merlbourne Symphony Orchestra which I still remember to this very day. Look for the clip John Farnham and Melbourne Symphony Orchestra - You're the Voice. as well as his version of the Beatles classic "Help". Incidentally, when Frteddy Mercury passed, John was the first person they approached to front 'Queen'. He declined because it would mean leaving his family in Australia. Will be very interested to hear what you think. Cheers
El dia en que yo muera espero que todavia no quiero esta musica que lo reciban a uno en el cielo con esta melodia hermosa no ay palabras para expresar como tocan los intrumentos los coros las voces dios que hermosura de musica pa mis oidos👏👏👏👏🤡👏🤡👏🤡🤪🤪🤪👻🤪👻🤪👻👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😜😜😜✌️✌️✌️😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁👏👏
This was recorded at a Ennio Morricone theme concert in Copenhagen. You might react to another piece from the same concert - once upon a time in the west ...
This is a 6 year old video that you react to. Every time someone reacts to it, they find it "funny" how Tuva Semmingsen is the "wah-wah lady". Tuva Semmingsen has sung opera since 1999, she's one of europes best mezzo-sopranos. Reducing her to the "wah-wah lady" is insulting, however Tuva herself has embraced that name fully, not because it's what she wants to be known for, but because that performance and rendition of The Good, the bad and the ugly in specific is/was iconic. Reacting to movie music without knowing the movie is somewhat crazy.
It's unfortunate that most people are introduced to Tuva Semmingsen via this video. They equate her as being the wha wha girl not realizing she is an incredibly gifted singer. You should check some of the other videos featuring her.
These westerns are their own sub-genre. They are "Spaghetti Westerns," called so, because they were filmed in Italy, for far less money than in Hollywood. "On the Cheap" with a cast of international actors, and very bad voice dubbing - most of the actors spoke their lines in their native language. Spaghetti Westerns were an essential part of my childhood in the 1960s. Double feature on a Saturday afternoon. 50¢ admission and 50¢ for snacks. All snacks were 5¢ and 10¢, so, if you chose wisely, you could load up. A couple cartoons, a short (Laurel & Hardy, or The Three Stooges), and two movies. Gave our mothers a much needed break on Saturday afternoons. And this was EVERY Saturday. First thing you did was eat the popcorn, then collapse the box and sail it towards the screen, like a frisbee (before there were frisbees) when the cartoons began. Those movie employees hated us! 🤣😈🤣 I'm so lucky to have been a kid in the late 1950s/1960s.😀😀
4:11 Some (like me) will say it is one of the Oboe family of instruments but I'm no expert. Others will insist it's from the English Horn family of instruments. To me, both families look physically the same so you could probably flip a coin and be right. The instrument is straight with a flared opening like a clarinet, but the reed is much narrower than a saxophone or clarinet reed. 9:15 The "bird whistle" is an ocarina. If you ever played "The Legend of Zelda and the Ocarina of Time", that's what one really looks and sounds like.
The English Horn is an Oboe family instrument. This however is way too large to be an Oboe and because of that, this IS an English Horn. The telltale sign is the bent reed pipe.
@@eidodk So the only difference between a regular Oboe and an English Horn is: the Horn had its reed pipe damaged in shipping? 😁 j/k If true I'll have to remember that. I can see the advantage to the bend in the reed pipe when it comes to extended playing.
@@Fadamor No - it's just the fastest way to identify it. An english horn is quite alot larger than a regular oboe, identifying it by the bent reed pipe is therefore the easiest. The pipe is bent because an English Horn is too large for the performer to reach all notes without the bend.
🇨🇦 The DNSO consists of over 70 choir members and over 100 musicians ! Those "sticks" are Slats, slapped together to simulate the sound of a Whip being snapped/cracked ! 🇨🇦
i'm gonna give you a like just because you NOTICE that man hanging (none of other reations noticed him) ... there is to mutch to explain about the significance, but watch the movie "the good the bad and the ugly" and you will understand .... that is Tuco, my absolute favourite croocked person.
You know the music is doing its job when you are filled with so much joy that it leaks out as feelings of love or happy tears or as simple as laughter .
The 'wah wah' lady is Tuva Semmingsen, a very distinguished opera singer in her own right.
Her whistle is brilliant 😊
And she have pistol earings in
Didn’t notice that!
That’s awesome! She’s great!
Tuva is the best norwegian opera singer of all times in my opinion. She is so ambigious in many different music styles and that's her superpower.
This fits the movie so well. Morricone was a genius.
There’s a lot more to the wah wah lady than you think.
It’s not a sax, it’s a cor anglais from the oboe family.
Oh trust me, we know there’s much more to the wah wah lady than what we saw here. 🙂
Wah wah it is produced by the singer's voice and a harmonica (you can see at 3.34) that mix together. Morricone was truly brilliant.
@@david-xr4oj Truly Brilliant since he had a very small and limited budget for this piece...(check it out sometime) and created this Masterpiece of music. That's talent.
So, if that particular video has gone viral, the poor woman may forever be known as the wah wah lady?
@@josephpublico2337 She gets a kick out of being called wah wah lady so don't feel sorry for her.

😂 awful
yeah i know right, the guy slapping the boards together replaced him
Hanging is an important theme in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
I think the harmonica guy you mentioned was part of the "wawaaaaa"-sound that the lady did. Great to see you enjoyed the performance!
harmonica (just below her) and voice was synched so it seemed all came from the lady.
Ohh interesting! Thanks so much!

if you never seen Sergio Leone Western with these emotional soundtracks you MUST!
famous soundtrack by Maestro and composer Ennio Morricone, from the western films of international director Sergio Leone. 🌺
The boom mics they use are for CERTAIN Shure SM58... It's the Danish Royal Symphony.. They don't skimp on equipment.
This was Christine's first performance with the Orchestra... she was the blond soprano. Tuva was the "wah wah/whistling" lady and a marvelous singer herself.

It's a pretty amazing rendition of the song
It’s an english horn. It’s one and a half time bigger than a normal oboe. So to say an alto oboe.
That's correct. But describing English horn with comparison to Oboe does not help if the person asking the question does not know what is an Oboe...
Nope, it’s actually called an Oboe d'amore, which is similar to the English Horn
This is the exact musical score written for the movie, played exactly the same

It’s actually an Oboe d'amore. Different instrument.
In the film the guy hanging would keep on being saved by Clint Eastwood and then Clint would claim the bounty.

the instrument you thought was a saxophone is actually an ''Oboe''.
This was recorded at a Ennio Morricone theme concert in Copenhagen. You might react to another piece from the same concert - once upon a time in the west ...
You can press "space" to pause, too.
The solo instrument is an English horn -- kind of like an oboe, a double-reed wind instrument, but with a curved mouthpiece.
Oboe d'amore actually
I believe that the horn in the middle of the episode is an english horn. similar to an oboe.
Epic 😊
When idiots say, "There's no such thing as real magic." i play this for them. Even the editing is magnificent.
There's no point watching this if you haven't seen the films first :)
Why not? We can enjoy music and seeing their performance without seeing the movie, no?
Not a Saxophone, that is a double reed woodwind known as an Oboe, the bass version is called a Bassoon.
4:10 No, that's an English horn, part of the oboe family, not a saxophone.
The not saxophone is an oboe. A beautiful but fiendishly difficult instrument.
This is a 6 year old video that you react to. Every time someone reacts to it, they find it "funny" how Tuva Semmingsen is the "wah-wah lady". Tuva Semmingsen has sung opera since 1999, she's one of europes best mezzo-sopranos. Reducing her to the "wah-wah lady" is insulting, however Tuva herself has embraced that name fully, not because it's what she wants to be known for, but because that performance and rendition of The Good, the bad and the ugly in specific is/was iconic.
Reacting to movie music without knowing the movie is somewhat crazy.
There are concerts with Symphonic Orchestras that only play movie scores.
It's unfortunate that most people are introduced to Tuva Semmingsen via this video. They equate her as being the wha wha girl not realizing she is an incredibly gifted singer. You should check some of the other videos featuring her.
These westerns are their own sub-genre. They are "Spaghetti Westerns," called so, because they were filmed in Italy, for far less money than in Hollywood. "On the Cheap" with a cast of international actors, and very bad voice dubbing - most of the actors spoke their lines in their native language. Spaghetti Westerns were an essential part of my childhood in the 1960s. Double feature on a Saturday afternoon. 50¢ admission and 50¢ for snacks. All snacks were 5¢ and 10¢, so, if you chose wisely, you could load up. A couple cartoons, a short (Laurel & Hardy, or The Three Stooges), and two movies. Gave our mothers a much needed break on Saturday afternoons. And this was EVERY Saturday. First thing you did was eat the popcorn, then collapse the box and sail it towards the screen, like a frisbee (before there were frisbees) when the cartoons began. Those movie employees hated us! 🤣😈🤣 I'm so lucky to have been a kid in the late 1950s/1960s.😀😀
Actually was filmed in Spain
@kimmoantinaho3834 True. Interesting how locations bounced around Europe. Whatever fit the budget.
One man is playing an oboe
the solo instrument was an oboe
There are lost tribes in the darkest jungle who would be able to whistle this music.
Pensa dove è arrivata la musica italiana.
You can use the space bar to pause as well
THIS HEARD IN THE MOVIE 'THE GOOD, THE BAD, & THE UGLY' STARRING CLINT EASTWOOD
The whole album is excellent
You may have missed it, but the next time you watch this, check out Tuva’s pistol earrings. She became really well known after this video came out.
If you want to go down the rabbit hole you need to watch some of their other video's.
4:11 Some (like me) will say it is one of the Oboe family of instruments but I'm no expert. Others will insist it's from the English Horn family of instruments. To me, both families look physically the same so you could probably flip a coin and be right. The instrument is straight with a flared opening like a clarinet, but the reed is much narrower than a saxophone or clarinet reed.
9:15 The "bird whistle" is an ocarina. If you ever played "The Legend of Zelda and the Ocarina of Time", that's what one really looks and sounds like.
The English Horn is an Oboe family instrument. This however is way too large to be an Oboe and because of that, this IS an English Horn. The telltale sign is the bent reed pipe.
@@eidodk So the only difference between a regular Oboe and an English Horn is: the Horn had its reed pipe damaged in shipping? 😁 j/k
If true I'll have to remember that. I can see the advantage to the bend in the reed pipe when it comes to extended playing.
@@Fadamor No - it's just the fastest way to identify it. An english horn is quite alot larger than a regular oboe, identifying it by the bent reed pipe is therefore the easiest. The pipe is bent because an English Horn is too large for the performer to reach all notes without the bend.
🇨🇦 The DNSO consists of over 70 choir members and over 100 musicians ! Those "sticks" are Slats, slapped together to simulate the sound of a Whip being snapped/cracked ! 🇨🇦
i'm gonna give you a like just because you NOTICE that man hanging (none of other reations noticed him) ... there is to mutch to explain about the significance, but watch the movie "the good the bad and the ugly" and you will understand .... that is Tuco, my absolute favourite croocked person.
You know the music is doing its job when you are filled with so much joy that it leaks out as feelings of love or happy tears or as simple as laughter .
Believe me: the 'WahWah' and Whistling' is just a kind of art. NOT Sennheiser-Things!
