    This is why music needs to remain in schools. Music and the arts stay with you for life.

    As a retired music teacher, I commend this one! I must add that those sophisticated lyrics must’ve indeed taken many rehearsals to master, LOL!

    This was awesome. I yearn for the times like this way back in 2018 when people of this age were capable of tearing their smartphones away from their faces for 3 minutes 24 seconds to produce something like this.

    Funnily enough I saw that piece with Andri Rieu other night with full orchestra.
    What surprised me was how many adults outplayed and out sang the orchestra.
    I say hundreds of adults and senior citizens singing in Unsion and transported back to their childhood.
    Long live music.

      Thank you especially for the Scout reference. We were wondering about the name a while back.

    • @martinpatrick1746
      @martinpatrick1746 3 года назад +4

      Scout was Tonto's horse and Silver was the lone rangers horse.

    • @kimothy1701
      @kimothy1701 3 года назад +8

      It’s the sign of an intellectual to listen to the William Tell overture without immediately thinking of the Lone Ranger. Who wants to be an intellectual anyway...Hi yo Silver, away. Get em up Scout.
