My wife and I were fortunate to hear this played live a few years ago. Words cannot adequately describe hearing and seeing this played live in concert.
Im going to see them Nov 30th. hope they play this. IF you don't know its a "spin off" from the band Savatage. check out Savatage when the crowds are gone. ill be doing a review for this Album / TSO after i see the concert
Same here. Or, at least, we should be. The other chunk of the orchestra not in my class who's supposed to be doing this with us is struggling. We *have* do do this! It's our winter concert!
Wow, cool!! With every new album the orchestra sounds more "natural" then on the older albums!! Not that artificial sound of strings! I just LOVE it!!!! :-)
Saw this done live at one of their concerts they had an opera singer with the violin, it was amazing, this was over 8 years ago and I still haven't heard anything like it.
Look at their Christmas Albums. They've taken old carols and updated them. Metal band, orchestra, choirs, and soloists. I'm sure that if they were alive today, that Mozart, Beethoven, Vivaldi, and Tchaikovsky would LOVE TSO and offer to sit down and write music with them.
@Tom Harrison Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24) is my all time favorite TSO song. I just like the intensity of it with the electric guitar and all and how it is still able to sound like "traditional" Christmas song, in my opinion that is a rarity
Well, I think it's done intentionally because they are neo-classical rock. They like to mix and match classical pieces with each other. For example this instrumental has motifs from the "Queen of the Night" aria from Mozart's "Magic Flute" opera and Vivaldi's "Winter" violin concerto. But I have seen other times that they reuse their own riffs so..
all of Mozart's works are so old they're in the public domain, so anyone can use them. Plus on their albums they always say where each song came from, even though the risk of getting sued by Mozart is zero.
I have really dissected Christmas Eve / Sarajavo 12-24 which is based on two traditional songs, starting with the English, "God Rest ye Merry Gentle Men" and the Ukrainian Carol of the bells. I think the the thing that makes it so different is not just the new arrangement but the new music in the middle that breaks up the repetition and allows them build the song intensity. Just my opinion.
TSO has always been known to recycle their material not only from previous TSO records but also from the original Savatage catalog :) I loved their incorporation of Vivaldi's melodies.
Technically they wouldn't have to cite the original composers since the original pieces are public domain, but they do anyway and of course aren't trying to fool anyone.
Serina333 they did not compose this. It’s a copy of Winter, from The Four Seasons Suite, by Vivaldi. It’s plagiarism - theft of another’s work - if they don’t acknowledge this fact.
People are doing this with a musical style called Dubstep. Spread the word, post this message on every TSO video you see! If Paul O'Neil of Chris Caffery sees this, there's no telling what they'd be able to do. Chris would put the Rock/Dubstep element in to it, and Paul would put the Classical element in to it.
Dawson Harrison I don't really listen to Dubstep, but I've listened to bits and peices of it. And In my opinion, I don't think TSO would sound as good with a Dubstep style. I think, from a musical and financial standpoint, that they would loose fans and money. They have already made their mark as a Christmas Rock band and people love it. I'm not saying that Dubstep is bad, I'm saying that some bands don't need Dubstep remixes or songs to make them sound better. It's similar to Auto Tune in which it's great for some people, but it's not so great for others. Now, this is just my personal opinion and I'm not trying to start an argument, but that's just how I feel.
ohhhhhhhh okay I see what your saying its cool. and I agree in a way. they could lose alot of fans because of the change. But maybe just one song to see how it goes? Like a Beta test

When you see something live and in person it’s always better.
We played this yesterday at our orchestra concert. I was first chair for first violin and I was so nervous my hands started shaking.
Kami Lee We played it last night. I'm a cellist, though.
Ik this was two years back but like, I totally remember being first chair violin lmao, it ain't easy
Cellos will rule this world
I played this the other year in symphony and I'm in percussion, you orchestra people are too self-centered
Im a lead guitarist and let me say the little guitar licks are tricky.
This is the best song literally EVER. We are going to play this in my concert and I'm really excited for it.
Same here. Or, at least, we should be. The other chunk of the orchestra not in my class who's supposed to be doing this with us is struggling. We *have* do do this! It's our winter concert!
Us too!
If you like this track check out the music from the game Warcraft 2. It’s from like 1995 and this song reminds me of it so much
Nah, Victory is insurmountable.
This is my favorite song!!! Gonna play it this December for MY concert too!
Wow, cool!! With every new album the orchestra sounds more "natural" then on the older albums!! Not that artificial sound of strings! I just LOVE it!!!! :-)
Did you guys even notice this sounds a lot like queen of the winter night 🤔
i really love Trans-siberian orchestra's christmas music the music they make is just straight awesome
this song is the bomb
It is impossible for me to listen to this without a strong sensation that it's great to be alive. Love, love, LOVE TSO!!!
Saw this done live at one of their concerts they had an opera singer with the violin, it was amazing, this was over 8 years ago and I still haven't heard anything like it.
Excellent rendition on Vivaldi's Winter Concerto No.4 in f, Op.8 - Allegro non molto
The picture is pretty lol. Do they do any 90s type music?
Crystal A They do use synthesizers, but thus far, none of their music has been 90s style.
What are you saying
I played drum kit for this song for band it was fun but a little hard and I don’t know why because now I can play it no problem
Trans Siberian orchestra- definition of epic
dreams of fireflies sound a lot better than the dreams I've been having
This is like my favorite Christmas song ever!!!
I have to play this song and its hard but I love this song.
Anyone here before Christmas? because their music is the best?
Definitely. I'm sure they'd be thrilled to know someone is keeping their music alive and presenting it in a new way.
Look at their Christmas Albums. They've taken old carols and updated them. Metal band, orchestra, choirs, and soloists.
I'm sure that if they were alive today, that Mozart, Beethoven, Vivaldi, and Tchaikovsky would LOVE TSO and offer to sit down and write music with them.
On a very Christmas night
Playing this in orchestra :)
Same here but we're putting a little twist to it :)
Same
Hi brother, how did i find you lol
Oh? You may have commented that three years ago. I, three years later, am also playing it in orchestra!
I played the guitar
Played this in high school. I love this song.
Love that someone else got the queen of the night aria as one of the songs along with the vivaldi winter.
dear two east coast please play this song this year🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘
We get to play this in our highschool band this year!!
Every time I hear this song I just feel like dancing
God when we played this in rehearsal, it was so fun we played it twice
The coolest orchestra ever! Thank you TSO!
TSO never fails to amaze me with their brilliance.
i'm so happy!!
this year i'm going to see tso live!!!
You will love it!
I saw them twice
I remember when I first saw them live. It was absolutely wonderful.
@@briannacoutts5293 same
They are a spin off from the Band SAVATAGE, check out the song " when the crowds are Gone " BY Savatage
This song came up on Pandora, and I could not stop listening to it but had to for one day. I come back and it's GONE!!!!!!!
One of my all time favorites!
Love the Vivaldi's Winter- Allegro Non Malto influence in the tune. What a way to make the Classics live on!
Very pretty. It is music you can play anytime. Thank you. Love Mom.
THIS SONG IS SO GOOOOD! can’t wait to play it! 🎄🎄
Playing this for band. 1st flute🤗
TSO played at Don Haskins Center in El Paso since 2017~ Love the band~ *Pikachu Smiles Happily* 😊💕🍪🍫💛
A TSO album I never knew even existed!
I've been searching for this foreveeeeeeeerrrrrrrr
Just a Mika me too 😄👌🏻
The Pittsburgh Pirates used this song the other day to introduce the starting line up, that was pretty awesome!!!
I always felt this song could be played year-round for different venues and reasons. I myself listen to it while working out.
I agree, a lot of their songs could be played year round. I listen to most of their songs year round...lol. Especially when I'm on the slopes.
Omg this song is so addicting..!! Must.. spam.. REPLAY!!!!
Yes!
+ApendingDoom215
You can also put repeat behind youtube in the url.
ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU!!!
I’ve seen a few extended covers of TSO songs. This one would be really cool to get an extended cover of
The fusion of Winter by Vivaldi and Queen of the Night..
@Tom Harrison Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24) is my all time favorite TSO song. I just like the intensity of it with the electric guitar and all and how it is still able to sound like "traditional" Christmas song, in my opinion that is a rarity

TSO why must you make such wonderful music that I want to see you every year in concert
Absolutely Amazing Music~ Went to concert and I'll never forget how amazing it was to hear ansd see them all playing at The Egg in Albany♥
Determined to learn this song enough to enter the Play Along contest.
Likewise.
Did anything happen?
Vivaldi!! My favorite,,from the Four Seasons! I love this piece!
all of Mozart's works are so old they're in the public domain, so anyone can use them. Plus on their albums they always say where each song came from, even though the risk of getting sued by Mozart is zero.
this reminds me too much of christmas because it is freakin' awesome
This sings to my heart😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Glad to see I'm not the only one that noticed! Terrific piece of work.
This song and the girl with the snow in the background really reminds me of Queen Elsa from Disney's Frozen.
It's fantastic! More classic music adaptations! :)
Less than a minute into the song and I'm loving it.!!
Love their Music.
🙂
This piece of music is beautiful 👍🏾
thanks for the name of this song, I was wondering what this is. I really, really, like it!
Already have this song done, now just to post it online for the play-alone contest! (:
very pretty. if i was to compete in a instrumental contest this would be my first choice
Ima go see them when they come december 27

Who Else is listening to this in 2020
TSO has always been known to recycle their material not only from previous TSO records but also from the original Savatage catalog :) I loved their incorporation of Vivaldi's melodies.
playing this in band :P
that is why I like the replay button
I am playing this song right now! (Violin II)
i wish i won some tickets to this year's concert! im gonna miss out big time! i love this song though!
Winter of course! :D
EPIC MUSIC
Me too :3
Vivaldi wrote the majority of what you hear in this piece actually.
Love this sing
Yep noticed that too! Love TSO
It’s an amazing piece isn’t it😀
Great song, Awesome group!
This song is sooo boss!
playing this monday at my concert
in my school we're doing a talent show in this song is going to be used
They do but it fits the song so well that it doesnt really matter!! :D
This is juicy
Technically they wouldn't have to cite the original composers since the original pieces are public domain, but they do anyway and of course aren't trying to fool anyone.
Part of this is based off of Antnio Vivaldi's "Winter" Allegro non molto
Love it
one does not simply listen to the song only one time!
i'm listening on christmas eve!
wonderful...fits the holidays
I'm somewhat surprised by how easy their play-along song is.
I'm playing this on guitar for band.
ayyyyyy
Declan Leach aye lit
I legit cant stop listening to this. Vivaldi + power metal = yes
Declan Leach I know right. What's your # man. I don't want to text you from a RUclips comment section
Leif McCoy I'm playing this on the violin for a string ensemble.
💙🔥💙
Im doing this song fkr a black light performance and im excited
I love all of the Trans Siberian Orchestra's songs they have composed. They are masterpieces. :)
Serina333 they did not compose this. It’s a copy of Winter, from The Four Seasons Suite, by Vivaldi. It’s plagiarism - theft of another’s work - if they don’t acknowledge this fact.
Compare to Vivaldi's _Winter (1st Mvmt: Allegro non Molto)_ and both are very nice pieces of music.
TSO said inspired by Vivaldi's 4 seasons winter section

No. Just. No.
shade231 BWAHAHAHAHA
WalkerJC3 I'm a Dubstep Producer and I think this would be amazing. and shade231 , thats sad you would think of that......

Like a Beta test
Yes it is but it sounds very good!!!
They recycle sometimes, but it's fine because they're SO AMAZING!
Playing this in orchestra with the band, its pretty difficult for us violins.
because of the speed it's all played at. that's why lol
No I mean literally 😁
😮
