The Revolution

I recently went to talk with local high school orchestras and their directors about the Salt Lake Pops Orchestra and I was shocked to find very small orchestras. They were all very talented and dedicated to their instruments, but it seems that playing in an orchestra is no longer a popular or fun thing to do for most teenagers. When I was in high school for example, we had over 100 members to our orchestra. Now, some of these schools were lucky to break 30.
In contrast, I visited my old high school choir teacher Mr. Larson whom I admire greatly. We chatted about how different the choir is now. Strangely, it was a fun and popular thing to be a part of in our high school, though I know a lot of other high schools were struggling for members at that time. There were around 100 members to our a capella choir when I was there. I thought that number was huge back then. No one rivaled the numbers our choir could produce. Now there's over 160 members! That blew me away. I knew that part of why his choirs were so successful was because he was an amazing director and always expected a lot out of the choir. However, many of the local choirs have increased in numbers by a huge margin as well!
When I drove home I talked with my beautiful, and pregnant, wife about it. She simply stated that it was the "Glee effect". Suddenly it hit me. Choir has become cool! Glee is a television show that puts together popular music for choirs and makes it fun! Instead of singing the traditional madrigals and hymns the choirs are now singing Gloria Estephan, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Britney Spears, and Lady Gaga! No wonder it's popular.
This is music that is current, relevant, and speaks to the emotions of these teenagers. High school bands started updating their repertoires 50 years ago with modern compositions and have grown in size compared to the orchestras that I've seen decreasing in number everyday. Why are orchestras dying? Because they think playing only Beethoven, Bach, and Mozart is the only way to educate our kids within an orchestra.
The Revolution Symphony would like to present a solution. Play music that speaks to the people in your orchestra, potential orchestra members and your audience. Continue to play the incredible music of Beethoven, Bach and Mozart, but supplement that music with something that will excite your kids: popular music from artists they already listen to! Play Bruno Mars' "Grenade" or Katy Perry's "Firework"! Make YOUR orchestra current, relevant and FUN again! Even one song every concert could change things for your orchestra. To help you we've decided give our sheet music away for free. The individual parts. The score. Everything. You can even email us if you have special needs for your orchestra. We do ask for donations so that we can continue this revolution. It simply helps provide free music for others who don't have any money.
Every journey begins with one step. Watch the music videos. Download the sheet music. Talk to your students and parents. Donate or have your student's parents donate. YOU can change the culture of your orchestra. YOU can change the future of orchestras and orchestral music.

I like the energy as the song builds around 1:14. That is so cool. I really love music and its a big part of my life. This version of Firework is better than the original. Mainstream radio is getting so depressing.
This gets better every time I watch it! I love watching Aubree play - you can see how much she absolutely loves what she's doing.
osmond is just one of those singers that you can't help but smile when you watch him. He seems so happy when he sings. That is art, fellas.
I love David in this! He is freaking amazing! Love Aubree! Love the SLC Pops!!!
I think this is my favorite version of this song.
Aubree is absolutely amazing!!! Very well done!!
Aubree made me cry.
Thank you.
Just awesome
To be 13 and so incredibly talented... amazing. Much gratitude to Lindsey for sharing this, it's beautiful.
ounce again proving that an orchestra can always make something sound.. fuller, better and so much more
Amazing! This is completely pure talent on Aubree's part! I should know since I play violin myself!
I hope this has inspired many other people, because it has definitely inspired me. Aubree exemplifies hard work, dedication, and excellence.
This made me cry like the first time I heard "Firework". Thank you.
Dear people of Salt Lake Pops Orchestra,
Keep up your hard work for the beautiful arts! I wish I had an Orchestra when I was in high school, but the regular band was lucky enough to get twenty people! Thank you for bringing back the coolness of Orchestra and stringed insturnments! :)
I fell in love with this song listening to similar pop orchestra tracks on Pandora and discovered one day this version with David Osmond, Aubree and Salt Lake Pop. It is outstanding and one of my favorite pieces. David Osmond is so refreshing and uplifting. I really like the energy the orchestra adds with Davids clean vocals. It’s just outstanding!!! I wish there was more of this. It’s so refreshing and empowering.
That was beyond awesome!! Aubree is amazing!!! and as always David Osmond shows his class along with his voice from heaven in singing this song with them! I loved this video and would love to share it! WOW!!!!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!! Thank you for sharing, I must download it now on iTunes!!!
I love David Osmond! His voice is amazing and he is an amazing person! The violin and orchestra make his voice just that much better!
This isn't just music or art, this is HEAVEN!
A star rises. And another shines brightly on her! Stupendous job, everyone!
Thank you Lindsey for bringing me here !
I saw Aubree solo with the Utah Symphony last month. All I can say is, whoever chose her to be in this video couldn't have picked anyone better!!
I can't say that the orchestra or the violinist are not good, but that voice... Oh, gosh, that voice caught me from the very beginning. Congratulations, guys, you're awesome.
This is one of my fave songs... Now! I listened to Katy's original version and I love the slower pace and fluidity of David Osmond's voice meshing with the orchestra.
It's on my favorites and David Osmond's video playlists.
your the reason music should be made.. so much emotion.. talent to the extreme .. thank you for making me smile today. i look forward to the next one.
She attends my school currently. It is wonderful to have someone with such amazing musical talent at your school.
I really like what the Salt Lake Pops Orchestra is doing with their music
Thank you!!! Beautiful...My anthem for 2014.
So much talent brought together in one place! Thank You Nathaniel Drew !!!
Love that Zach Galifianakis was conducting the orchestra! ....But seriously, gorgeous version, made me tear up and I NEVER, EVER cry. ;)
I can appreciate the skillful arrangement of this piece.
The guitar player is just dancing around having a good time love it!
Lindsey sent me, too. I thought David did an excellent job of Katy's song. I enjoyed this version. And Aubree is so talented to be so young. Thank you SLPO for such an enjoyable performance. Looking forward to more!
Me too--would like to think there would be more coming with Aubree!
You've completed transformed this song! The orchestra behind it it's just amazing, wow Aubree is really talented!
This brought tears to my eyes..
I just can't even describe the feeling..
I want this to be me one day.
To make people feel this way.
and maybe capture these moments, and create them on camera?
I don't know yet, but damn...
♥
So great!! Love that his vocal performance is real, not all auto tuned and beefed up like all the crap on the radio. Compliments the beautiful orchestration! More please:)
Wow!!! Absolutely stunning. David's vocal is amazing and the arrangement is original and beautiful. So many talented people in this video!!!
This music and videography is so emotionally moving and beautiful!
Lindsey sent me here...I have now subscribed. Like the top comment said, this is worlds more soulful, heartful and meaningful than the original. Im in a net cafe, and my brothers looking at me like "why you got it so loud?". PROUD TO BE LISTENING!
dont know why but i can't stop crying.....that's just fantastic...i'm out of words.... :')
The best music video I've ever seen period.
this version has helped me soo much with my life at the moment
This is beautiful. No words to describe.
At the risk of promoting a troll, let me just state the obvious:
This violinist is tremendously accomplished. She recently soloed Tchaikovsky with the Utah Symphony behind her for most of an hour. She was a Grand Prize winner in the Stradivarius competition in 2010. She has also won the Protege International Strings Competition in 2011 and played at Carnegie Hall. She was twice named a composer of great promise by the New York Arts Ensemble. Check out some of her other videos on RUclips.
one of the best covers forever..
This is like a MILLION times better than Perry's!!! Just brilliantly put together!!!
I'm addicted to this song....it's probably the 500th time I played it today...
I think the voice was perfect for the way the song was presented--very loving, caring and inspirational. Just a different take on the song. He really "made it his own".
I think it's much better than the original; full of passion. More of a ballad than pop.
Oh my god. Could you imagine them playing together? It would be so amazing.
Simply breathtaking.
every time I listen to this I cry. I can't stand the original but this version rocks me to my soul...
Best video I have seen in weeks (and that is saying a lot--I am gaining the use of my legs again after an accident). I hope to see more of Aubree--YOU made my night.
I started playing the Violin when i was 11 and I'm now 13. People say i am a born Professional. I am in a group that goes around and plays concerts at Nursing Homes.
I just saw my favorite bassist in the world, Justin!!!!!
Fabulous job Aubree!!! It gave me chills!
Absolutely beautiful song, amazing violin!!!
Fluir en la melodía, viajar en los sentimientos y emociones. Abrirse el corazón y gritar en cada latido al sentir las notas... maravillosas, insuflar vida. Muchas gracias por compartir la belleza del arte y la sensibilidad a flor de piel. Namasté
I second that notion! I'm going to spend my birthday on the town, painting and singing. I'm going to bring this song with me. :3
I keep having goosebumps when I listen to this!! You guys are all so great!!! Greeting from France!! Keep on like that!!
Yes--I subscribe to that channel and know first hand what a talent Aubree is!
i totally agree!! that would be the coolest thing ever!!
Simply beautiful.
I LOVE KATY PERRY AND I LOVE THAT SONG! YAY! Congrats!!!

Wish these kids were in my school orchestra, great for you man! And I mean that as a good thing.
I cried when I watched this! Beautiful video, and I really felt like the message came through. I love the orchestral arrangement, David's voice & charisma, and Aubree's mad violin skills! And such incredible cinematography at such a gorgeous location! :D

Our choirs and bands should work together in order to sing songs like what you guys are doing here more often and with more modern songs! By the way, nice job on the video guys! You guys are awesome! And the singer, you are just spectacular!
Wow....This is GREAT! Performed with such Passion! Live the DREAM and Glorify the one who gave you the talent! Whoo HOO! Congrats on a great piece of work! I already posted this on my FB...
This is better than anything I've ever seen on Glee. Even though thats what i was first reminded of.
This is something i would love to join and would keep me playing my trumpet an orchestra that does modern music i would kill to be in something like this when i'm done with high school and my marching band years!!!
Love this version!
Amazing! ;) David, you are awesome!!!
God bless you forever and always.
