The lady who sang "wah wah", her name is tuva semmingson, a classically trained singer in her own right, she sings everything from opera to standards to pop. A diva of the 1st class. If you look closely, for this concert she was wearing little six shooter earrings. PERFECT!!! I watched an interview with the two vocalists.Tuva Semmingsen AKA the Wa Wa Lady, as she has been called by the tube, actually likes being called the Wa Wa Lady. She couldn't believe how this performance took off on the tube. Christine Nonbo Andersen is the solo vocalist in the audience. This was her first performance with the Danish National Orchestra. Both ladies nailed their performances and added a stunning element to this Ennio Morricone masterpiece. Ennio Morricone was a composer of film soundtracks, where he used instruments and objects that are not normally used in an orchestral ensemble. Electric guitars, basses, ocarinas, bongos ... but also whips, gunshots, gusts of wind. Entering Morricone's work is a complete immersion. A moving tribute for fidelity down to the smallest details is what the Spaghetti Werstern Orchestra did to him.
A great theme from a great movie. That film is a classic because of the music. Ennio Moriconne, who only died a few years ago, was a master at film composing.
Well, the film is not a classic because of the music - the film stands on its own feet. However, the music definitely adds to the overall picture. Enough to say that the film is the best western movie ever made and the music is the best film score ever.
Thank you for reacting, I knew you would love this. It is worth noting that this is also the same orchestra that played with Procol Harum's A Whiter Shade of Pale.
@@rickharper3940 There is a video from 2006, I believe, of Gary Brooker performing this with the Danish National Orchestra that is next level incredible. Check it out!
In my non-expert opinion, I have to rate that as a Perfect Performance, perfect musicianship, perfect orchestration, perfect arrangement, perfect vocals, perfect direction (oh yeah!...what a director!), even the filming...the camera work. What a great piece of music!!
A magnificent composition for actor Clint Eastwood's most famous "spaghetti" western. One of the greatest movie theme songs of all time. Thanks for your reaction.
This song and movie are iconic and this orchestra and choral group were amazing!!! He’s playing the oboe which is an instrument that takes a lot of air to play! I also love the chimes (long silver pipes with the guy hitting them with hammers/mallets)! ❤
So beautiful. Best rendition of this I have ever heard. The oboe interlude was heavenly. A lot of the great composers of the last century have composed for films. That’s where the patrons are today.
It's not an oboe though, but an English horn, which is about 1½ times the length of an oboe. That's why an English horn (and also an oboe d'amore) has the curved bocal between the reed and the body unlike an oboe, to create and angle which makes it much more comfortable to hold this long instrument and easier to reach the keys. If you google oboe vs. English horn, you can find videos demonstrating the differences in looks and sound between them.
When I heard this music, I knew I have heard this kind of English Horn/Oboe tunes before. I went several days thinking, "Where have I heard it?", then it struck me. The movie "The Mission" with Robert De Niro. I checked, yes it is very much the same Oboe music as in "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly". Surprise surprise, I found out that Ennio Morricone made the music to both films, so he just reused some of the tunes. The music is very similar. Tip: See the Movie first (get your Handkerchief ready) and then listen to the music separately. The Oboe music is simply called "Gabriel's Oboe", again see the movie first.
This is from Clint Eastwoods best Spaghetti Western that he did early on in his career. Soundtrack written by Ennio Morricone , who recently passed away in 2020. He wrote some wonderful movie scores. He has 2 academy awards, 3 Grammys and among others.
I hate to correct you, but those are Sergio Leone movies, Clint being just one of the many actors in them ... Sergio was a genius and his work with Ennio Morricone , the music composer is nothing short than legendary and real masterpieces of cinema..
@@FabioRigokimbaorso I know that. Morricone was the composer of many movies and I did not imply that Eastwood was the only actor, It was one of his early movies I do not need to be mansplained being a 66 year old ex classical musician.
@@deborahscalise3215 no mansplaing whatsoever, just a filthy something Italian slightly irritated by the lack of recognition for one of the greatest movie director coming out from my country.. those movies are not Clint's (he did great later in his career and recognize the influence of Sergio work on his , by the way)
My father ran a repair garage from our home in the early 70’s. One of his customers had a 1965 GTO with an 8-track player. He had a tape of this soundtrack. I forgot what repair dad was doing but when my older brother and I found that tape we played this theme over and over again till we drained the battery. Got our butts blistered but it was worth it.
L'estasi del Oro... The best musical piece to start the day. The oboe sounds like the opening of a slow morning... And the rest is a constant injection of pure positive energy that goes crescendo.
Such an ICONIC review … “ ..right here, this guy with this thing!” describing the Oboe musician!! I felt the same way!!! I have since learned from watching many reviews of this musical score that the conductor, Sarah Hicks, is from the Minneapolis Orchestra. I live in MN and I definitely need to attend one of her concerts. I “borrowed” the following from another person’s review but I think this was some excellent information … “”The conductor here is an American "guest" conductor for this concert. Sarah Hicks is the principal conductor of the Minneapolis Orchestra, graduate Magna Cum Laud with a BA degree in music composition from Harvard University. Sarah is highly sought after as a "guest" conductor the world over and has worked with dozens of orchestras all over the word in both hemispheres. What does a conductor do? In this case Sarah chose all of the music for this concert which centered on Ennio Morricones' Spaghetti Western movies sound tracks. She spent hours studying the entire score, making notes as she went along that she would later share with the musicians during rehearsal, She then rehearsed the Orchestra and choir sharing her vision for the various songs, what the dynamics would be, play softy here, a bit more fortissimo (with force) there, establishing what the tempo will be, applying her leadership to inspire these very "Top Shelf" musicians to project her vision of the music and concert. Sarah does have a series of RUclips educational videos addressing this very question that you asked: "What does a conductor do?'" She is quite an impressive young lady, very talented and, I feel quite gifted!””
The reed you were wondering about, with the thin mouthpiece I believe is an Oboe it has a beautiful tone, yet forlorn (not sad, but lonely) the piano accompaniment was brilliant.
This movie was another of Clint Eastwood's spaghetti westerns. When I was a kid I listened to the entire soundtrack over and again. Thanks to my mom, who is no longer with us, buying this album. The movie is a classic, and u should watch it.
Actually, its an English Horn. A larger version of an oboe and in a different octave range (or is an oboe a smaller version of an English Horn?). Kind of like Clarinet, Base Clarinet, and Saxophone are in the same musical instrument family and anyone who can play one knows how to play the others as the mouthpiece and keying are identical.
This concert was broadcast on danish national tv. The entire concert was labelled: _An evening with the music of Ennio Morricone._ This is just a snippet of the entire evening.
Glad you reacted to this and your observation was spot on! No words! But highly emotional pieces (TG,TB,TU and Ecstacy of Gold). Amazing how this moves me and has for ~ 55 years now. But I think DNSO took it to the pinacle w this one!
Tubular Bells is the instrument you asked about. There are some amazing instruments in the percussion section of a symphony orchestra and depending on the piece, they really add to the music. Hopefully more people will want to see a live symphony orchestra. I love all kinds of music but was exposed to amazing classical pieces from a very early age. The oboe and the English horn sound incredible!!
your comment I do not want it to end is as SIMPLE as PRECIOUS ! it can sound strange , but with this film italians teached to americans how to make a good western film - and how to make a magnificent soundtrack - the danish orchestra also made a truly PERFECT job 🙂
The instrument you asked about about at 2:42 is a set of tubular bells. Back in the '70s, Mike Oldfield released the album "Tubular Bells," the title track was the theme for the movie "The Exorcist"
The early instruments you reacted to were the ocarina (like a mini football with holes) and the tubular bells; many orchestras have these bells but the actual stands for hanging them on differ. the wind instrument was the cor anglais, a relative of the oboe. Lots of film music on u-tube from the DNSO, they have regularly done concerts on a theme, this was "Westerns". Enjoy! :-)
In 1972 or 1973, I was a senior in HS, and I had a job at a drive-in theater in Tucson AZ. At one point they had a triple-feature wit "Hang 'Em High", "Fistfull of Dollars", and the third feature was "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly". By the time the third feature hit I was able to relax and enjoy the movie, over and over, every night. I remember watching The Ecstasy of Gold every night and wishing it would never end. I was saddened because I knew that when they changed movies I would not see it again. Now I have the DVD.
The music is perfectly paired with the movie. You have to come back and listen to it again after seeing the movie. It will add layers to it you didn't know existed... There is so much packed into the meaning of the score...Sooo well written.
It is mesmerising just seeing that many talented people in one room, coming together with prefect timing and beauty. You are right it is a true power to make you emotional.
So these are two separate songs. The first is the theme from the movie. The second is the Ecstasy of Gold. One of the characters (the Ugly) is running through a huge cemetery looking for a specific grave that contains 200k in gold. That’s the crescendo as he’s running faster and faster.
That little rounded instrument is an ocarina, sometimes called a Sweet Potato. They come in different sizes for different ranges. My father used to play a ceramic one, a bass almost as big as a football. It's a lot of fun.
When you’re watching a creation of a masterpiece, and secondly, there might be more talent in that room on that given night then there is and the rest of the world
Que películas, que trilogía, como nos hemos divertido de jovenes y no tan jovenes, y la interpretación de esta orquesta de una Banda Sonora tan genial como esta, es para darles un oscar a todos y cada uno!
If you've seen the movie then the music is even more enjoyable. "The good, the bad and the ugly" is one of the best movies ever made and one of the best soundtracks. This is an excellent rendition of the music.
Some of the composers and orchestra's through the modern movie era were not only top drawer in their fields of expertise, they DID create emotional and magnificent renditions that conveyed the sentiments of whatever medium directors and script writers wanted to convey. Like vanilla as an undertone to a scone, salt on a biscuit, jam inside a filled donut, music accented or drove home the very essence of what came across the silver screen.
This instrument that you asked about ios called Tubular Bells (which is also a name for few Mike Oldfield albums which I strongly suggest you should listen, especially Tubular Bells II). Danish Symphony Orchestra is known for events like this. And they are really good at that. And also welcome to the Ennio Morricone music (just check for how many movies he composed soundtracks).
@@Vinterfrid If you see "Chimes" in an English language film score (or, indeed, any English language orchestral score) you can be 90% sure it's tubular bells. If you see "Orchestral Bells", you can be 90% sure it's a glockenspiel. If you see "Bar chimes" or "chime tree", you can be 90% sure it's a mark tree (probably the "chimes" you refer to). So yes, to most English speaking composers, chimes and tubular bells are the same. But it would certainly avoid confusion if everyone (in English) just called them tubular bells, glockenspiel, and mark tree respectively - names no-one seems to misunderstand. And then we have wind chimes, which are also sometimes used orchestrally, and which some composers think are the same as the mark tree. They aren't. 🙂 (The absolute worst is when a composer, orchestrator or arranger just writes "Bells" - which could refer to at least 50 different instruments - 15-20 of them pretty common...).
The first instrument you asked about that was struck were Tubular Bells.... (Hence the title of the Mike Oldfield album... And the instrument played that soothed you was an oboe. But above all Ennio Morriconne is a spectacular film composer.... Your read out a lot of his flim score there... Keep on Rocking
Actually that is NOT an oboe, it is an English horn. They have a similar sound, but the mouthpiece you see here on the ENGLISH HORN is longer and has a slight curve to it, and the instrument itself is longer in length than the OBOE. An OBOE's mouthpiece is shorter and straight with no curve, But again, they have a some what similar sound, so they are often confused by listeners who are not musicians. Both instruments are from the same "family."
@@patticrichton1135 Thank you for the correction... even at 70 one finds that every day can be a school day... But I satisfy myself that I have at least got the correct family and not made the cardinal error of calling it a Clarinet...! Take care.
Check out a part of this great orchestra with Gary Brooker and Procol Harum performing A Whiter Shade of Pale, in 2006. Took a great song and made it even greater.
I've watched this dozens of times & it never fails to give me goosebumps. It should be noted that this was done in one take. One! No stopping & starting over if someone flubs.
I honestly remember nothing else about the party, but it was a beautiful spring day in maybe 1991, and I walked into a breezy apartment and this was playing and there was a huge bowl of sangria. It is still the second best party I've ever been to for those reasons alone.
How come you have not wtched the film?, The three hours best spent in my life, not counting the many repeated viewings that still feels as fresh as the first time. Please react to more songs and scores of the great Ennio Morricone.
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is the third of the Man with No Name spaghetti westerns staring Clint Eastwood. You should watch them in release order, Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good... All are by director Sergio Leone with music composed by Enrico Morriconne (and I'm sure I spelled those names incorrectly). Fistful is an unofficial remake of Kurisawa's Yojimbo if you are interested in watching the original first.
For a frame of reference, this music was composed at about the same time as the orchestral rock of the Moody Blues, "Days of Future Passed" (featuring "Nights in White Satin"). It was a very creative period. This is, of course, the soundtrack to the famous cowboy movie, "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly," starring Clint Eastwood.
You have to hear the original to really appreciate how amazing it is that they are recreating this live with human voices replacing some of the instruments used in the original.
Morricone is such a genius that if you close your eyes you imagine riding on the plains of a desert in the west (I'll start by saying that both Leone and Morricone had only imagined the west)
02:42 What is that instrument? - Those are TUBULAR BELLS or CHIMES. Haven't you never heard the famous first album by Mike Oldfield wich title is TUBULAR BELLS? The opening title was used in the movie "The Exorcist".

I think I listen to this song ten times a day and I still can't get enough of it. And the movie with Clint Eastwood is very good.
What moves me is the amazing things that humans can do when we're not killing each other.

Hard to believe that Ennio Moriconne had this in his head and passed it on to an orchestra....mind blowing music!
It's an awesome movie theme, executed in a masterful yet playful way.

@@MrSmartAlec No, tubular bells and chimes are not the same. Chimes are considerably smaller in size and have a different sound.
@@Vinterfrid If you see "Chimes" in an English language film score (or, indeed, any English language orchestral score) you can be 90% sure it's tubular bells. If you see "Orchestral Bells", you can be 90% sure it's a glockenspiel. If you see "Bar chimes" or "chime tree", you can be 90% sure it's a mark tree (probably the "chimes" you refer to). So yes, to most English speaking composers, chimes and tubular bells are the same. But it would certainly avoid confusion if everyone (in English) just called them tubular bells, glockenspiel, and mark tree respectively - names no-one seems to misunderstand. And then we have wind chimes, which are also sometimes used orchestrally, and which some composers think are the same as the mark tree. They aren't. 🙂 (The absolute worst is when a composer, orchestrator or arranger just writes "Bells" - which could refer to at least 50 different instruments - 15-20 of them pretty common...).
The first instrument you asked about that was struck were Tubular Bells.... (Hence the title of the Mike Oldfield album... And the instrument played that soothed you was an oboe. But above all Ennio Morriconne is a spectacular film composer.... Your read out a lot of his flim score there... Keep on Rocking
Actually that is NOT an oboe, it is an English horn. They have a similar sound, but the mouthpiece you see here on the ENGLISH HORN is longer and has a slight curve to it, and the instrument itself is longer in length than the OBOE. An OBOE's mouthpiece is shorter and straight with no curve, But again, they have a some what similar sound, so they are often confused by listeners who are not musicians. Both instruments are from the same "family."
@@patticrichton1135 Thank you for the correction... even at 70 one finds that every day can be a school day... But I satisfy myself that I have at least got the correct family and not made the cardinal error of calling it a Clarinet...! Take care.
Check out a part of this great orchestra with Gary Brooker and Procol Harum performing A Whiter Shade of Pale, in 2006. Took a great song and made it even greater.
I've watched this dozens of times & it never fails to give me goosebumps. It should be noted that this was done in one take. One! No stopping & starting over if someone flubs.
I honestly remember nothing else about the party, but it was a beautiful spring day in maybe 1991, and I walked into a breezy apartment and this was playing and there was a huge bowl of sangria. It is still the second best party I've ever been to for those reasons alone.
Yes, would love more of their work!
Would be amazing to see this live!
The Danish National Symphony is outstanding! Anything you want to listen to - just click and go. We'll be there to watch.
That was genius level!❤❤
How come you have not wtched the film?, The three hours best spent in my life, not counting the many repeated viewings that still feels as fresh as the first time.
Please react to more songs and scores of the great Ennio Morricone.
I saw them live last week for the Indiana Jones concert. It was great as always
I've downloaded this awesome piece a couple years back. And it gets me everytime I listen to this masterpiece
LOVE your reaction 🎉🎉🎉
Did you notice that the lady who sang the Wah Wahs was wearing pistol earrings ?
The "wa wa wa" woman has on six-shooter earrings, lol; love it!
Oh Lord, I just found this on your station. I can just visualize Clint Eastwood sitting on that horse. Great movie....you must see it.
I have to say It. Gosebums alert...Imagine how the heavens musik sounds like♥️
If I may be so bold as to borrow a phrase used occasionally on this channel: "This was... Incredible."
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is the third of the Man with No Name spaghetti westerns staring Clint Eastwood. You should watch them in release order, Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good... All are by director Sergio Leone with music composed by Enrico Morriconne (and I'm sure I spelled those names incorrectly). Fistful is an unofficial remake of Kurisawa's Yojimbo if you are interested in watching the original first.
For a frame of reference, this music was composed at about the same time as the orchestral rock of the Moody Blues, "Days of Future Passed" (featuring "Nights in White Satin"). It was a very creative period.
This is, of course, the soundtrack to the famous cowboy movie, "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly," starring Clint Eastwood.
You have to hear the original to really appreciate how amazing it is that they are recreating this live with human voices replacing some of the instruments used in the original.
Morricone is such a genius that if you close your eyes you imagine riding on the plains of a desert in the west (I'll start by saying that both Leone and Morricone had only imagined the west)
02:42 What is that instrument?
- Those are TUBULAR BELLS or CHIMES.
Haven't you never heard the famous first album by Mike Oldfield wich title is TUBULAR BELLS? The opening title was used in the movie "The Exorcist".
Wow! That was amazing. Thanks for reacting to it
