My grandfather musician told me "you always recognise a piece from Rossini, he's always in a hurry because he has to go stir the tomato sauce". Rossini was an extremely enthusiastic chef, in addition to a great composer.
I've probably watched this 100+ times and love it every time. Between the conductor's actions, the gray bearded cello player and the first violin the enjoyment they are all having with this wonderful piece makes it just a special video. Thanks to all of them for their performance.
One thing that stands out when watching it is that the conductor has no music in front of him and no one in the symphony is looking at the conductor but they are all in sync.
I, too, loved this performance, and especially noted the passion of the lead violinist (on the right hand of the conductor). She almost bounces out of her seat when the beat picks up. Impressive...I love PASSIION IN MUSIC and IN IT'S PERFORMERS!!
@@19franken95 and he was writing same thing patriotic. This composition was written to incite the Italian to rebel against the stranger occupying forces in Italy. So he used the music to give them the rebelius spirit needed to fight the other soldiers . at the time Rossini was a papalino meaning a citizen of the pontefic state. Supported by the French the Austrian and held Europe. Is fast pace is due to excite the spirit of the rebels against everybody. Viva Rossini e Verdi.
+Mark Younger Yes I loved the standing up bit too, in fact I loved all of it from start to finish. Brilliant musicians but I supposed you have to be to play in that orchestra. Absolutely superb!!
This conductor is the ultimate best. Doesn't require sheet music. Knows exactly what section plays what and when. I watch this video at least once a day.👍👍
Leonard Bernstein and Von Karajan can conduct symphonies without looking at texts as well. I’m pretty sure any decent conductor knows a symphony or two by heart.
Yes, this is a truly fantastic rendition, but for contrast I welcome you to listen to the Grimley brass band rendition from the movie "Brassed Off" ( ruclips.net/video/X2Wbshh6hUo/видео.html). Pay particular attention to the cornet solo. I love "William Tell' no matter who plays it.
Almost forgot...that flourish at the end, with the orchestra standing! That's more than just good musicianship. That's showmanship! Totally delightful! This is the kind of visual and aural gem you want to watch and experience over and over again.
@@pranaynatvarlal because its universal, you can't say "that's not original" without saying something unoriginal, it's like saying "nice job" or "yipecaye mother****er," you have to say it the original way to get the message off.
È un brano vivace e coinvolgente, questo spiega l'atteggiamento dei musicisti, e sicuramente il direttore d'orchestra ha una personalità che spicca molto. Fa piacere guardare e ascoltare questo video.
I love how the conductor has complete control of the orchestra. His movements, eye contact and attention to detail is superb. The ending is so powerful as the entire orchestra stands up. This is how such a great piece should be performed, with a powerful orchestra and conductor. Bravo!
In all my years of listening to the great classical works, THIS IS THE BEST performance of "The Gallop" that I have EVER heard! You could not only see and hear...but also FEEL the emotion of the orchestra! Rossini would be VERY proud to have heard this splendid rendition. And how about that ending where all the musicians stood up for those last several notes?
I think Rossini would have hated it. His metronome markings are slower, and he detested unnecessary high notes and other extravagances that smacked of showmanship. I cringed when I clicked on this version.
@@wotan10950 There's a lot of debate of just what metronome markings meant. Here's an interesting perspective from the POV of the Beethoven quartets. thebeethovenproject.com/how-fast-shall-we-play/
Quel loro alzarsi in piedi nelle ultime battute è semplicemente fantastico! Equivale ad una standing ovation nei confronti dell'immenso Rossini! Il popolo giapponese è un popolo meraviglioso!

I could listen every day for remainder of my life and never tire of it. It's thrilling to hear and to know such talent exists not just in the composition but the musicians of course as well.

Il suono è stupendo, il gesto magnifico, il ritmo ed il piglio è assolutamente perfetto... vive questa musica come un altro genio italiano... Toscanini !!!
Nel preciso momento che la musica non è ancora terminata ed iniziano gli applausi si compie la magia. Quello è l'istante esatto che tutti i presenti diventano Italiani.
The reason why this is the best version of all is because it's much more hastier, clarity among instrument sounds and very good bass in it when you hear it in headphones. Not every other version of other conductors produces that.

Well said!
Love this......
i really love this comment
...which Is about a Swiss national hero
thank you for the information 😍😍
A Korean conductor leading a Japanese Philharmonic playing a song written by an Italian composer. This is how the world should be. Music unites all :)
Correct
Japanese and south Koreans are close ..pity they didn't have good composers there !
agreed enjoyed by all
What does nationality have to do with classical music?
@@armelburgess8651 A lot !!
Cant stop watching this .. jus the teaching of the body language ❤........2024???????????????
One of my absolute favourite conductors. He deeply cares about the music and really brings its power out
Thats the most chill conductor I have ever seen
The Force is strong with him
He is on fire.
1 tiny flick from him
Everyone: Yes
He's definitely the Whun in charge.
Japan style he is very strict
If I played this in my car, I'd lose my license.

This video should be taken down. There is not enough racial diversity in the orchestra. 😩

@@dalebrown322I noticed that but I also noticed not many of the orchestra were watching him. Much less pretentious than English conductors
@@JustForFun-mt9og9 in uinin😊
The best performance I have ever seen. The stand-up by the orchestra at the end was, and still is breathtaking!
One person sat down and wrote every note for every instrument in his head and came up with this.
right, but it happened to be G. Rossini, that's why...
It's not hard at all, but it is time consuming

The best of the best
Not that easy to stand up with your cello. lol
Too fast for my taste
Mark Younger i know they did a good job
Just watch his subtle hand motions, his fingers and hands are directing the 90 piece orchestra. Amazing just to watch him conduct.
Absolutely agree.
And he is polite. Awesome.
90 piece orchestra, 80 violins 😀
I love how they all stand up at the end, even the cellos
That is a nice touch that I have NEVER seen an entire orchestra do...one section or several, but never everyone...!
This conductor is the ultimate best. Doesn't require sheet music. Knows exactly what section plays what and when. I watch this video at least once a day.👍👍
Linda, I do the same as you - I watch it once a week just to see the incredible performance of this conductor
@@eduardoalencardeazambuja889 Then you should see him conduct Mahler ninth wihout the scores
Leonard Bernstein and Von Karajan can conduct symphonies without looking at texts as well. I’m pretty sure any decent conductor knows a symphony or two by heart.
@@jerou well,, Bernstein OK, but Karajan prefer to read instade the "spartito" the money cash...
I was introduced to this at age 7 and haven't tired of it for 70 years!
This used to be my morning alarm. Had to be out the door before last note fades.
This is by far and away my favorite rendition of this piece. The speed and power is very visceral yet refined - it's absolutely magnificent.
Yes, this is a truly fantastic rendition, but for contrast I welcome you to listen to the Grimley brass band rendition from the movie "Brassed Off" ( ruclips.net/video/X2Wbshh6hUo/видео.html). Pay particular attention to the cornet solo. I love "William Tell' no matter who plays it.
Yep , BRAVO !
You are absolutely right! I think the same thing!
何度も見てます。本当に素敵!
かっこよすぎる!
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
And the end everybody smile and that makes me smile too
Having fun with your job, nothing beats that.
They are having so much fun! It's infectious. I was grinning and chuckling the whole time watching.
From his incredible movements, I'm pretty sure that conductor was just a tai chi master who accidentally walked on stage and still pulled it off.
Lol
@@mozart4426 Quite agree with you. Kind regards Glynn Evans and Greetings from Stourbridge West Midlands UK 🤝
KingGrio you make no sence
They are just cool
You dumb piece of shit you dont know chung myung hun?
As a trombonist, I would have loved the opportunity to be directed by this man. His animation and motions are marvelous.
This music will always be known to me as the theme song of "The Lone Ranger" which was one of my childhood heroes. Go in peace.
At 80 yrs old it's a pleasure to say that this is the best ever. To Mr Chung and the Tokyo Philharmonic --- Thank you.
FANTASTIC!!! Rossini would be proud!!!
I love the slight eyebrow raise and smile the concertmaster gives the conductor at 0:42. It's like saying "alright, here we go!"
One of the best music ever. Glory to Rossini.
Myeong Hun Jeong is legendary conductor
With good reason, obviously.
The musicians have a smile on their face when performing such an infectious piece of music. Wonderful orchestra, wonderful conductor.
Good music knows no borders. Music the peace, we all need to find.
Un grande omaggio al formidabile compositore Gioacchino Rossino, perla preziosissima della Musica classica italiana

The conductor does a dance at 2:09.
That's one of the coolest parts. It's clear that he's groovin' to the music--and loving it!
Was that Zumba dance? Enquiring minEs like minD wanna kno.
im crying hahaha
At 0:55 he threatens them with a force choke but ultimately decides against it.
That is amazing!how did you release that?

Mamma mia!!!!!!! Fantastica interpretazione di uno dei più grandi compositori italiani
Precision, speed, musicality, and pure joy. I cannot stop listening to this. My family thinks I'm a little crazy.
Japanese orchestra, Korean conductor, Italian composer...and in harmony, they all ROCK. Bravo, Bravo!
I just love watching this guy...he's fantastic.
個性的な指揮者に圧倒され、最後まで見てみると、最後はめっちゃ感動✨
this music plays in my head when i am in a damn hurry !!! am i the only one ??

No, you are not the only one.

sashank dhakal No, you're not! LMAO! This is the ANTHEM of being stuck in traffic!
Me too!!
My one year old boy loves this performance and he swings his arms with the music. He is in daycare now, I miss him so much, I can't work
I can listen to this piece a gazillion times and the hair on the back of my neck stands up every time! Bravo !!! Magnificent!!
My 3.5 year old runs around the house to this song a minimum of 6 times a day! he imitates the conductor too and it’s one my favorite things😂
A future Leopold! 🎶
Semplicemente meravigliosi! Anche Rossini apprezzerebbe. Un abbraccio dall'Italia ❤️🇮🇹
Perfettamente d' accordo. Un abbraccio dal Brasile.

One of the best renditions of William Tell I've ever heard!! Awesome, fabulous!!
i was in my living room when this music playing, suddenly I'm riding a horse.
My, I bet they all caught the last train home! Full marks to the conductor for working with no score - a valuable and underrated talent.
Agreed! I was very impressed seeing Pinchas Zuckermann conduct an entire concert of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra with no scores. Wow!
FANTASTIC!! Coming from an old mechanic who can't play a tambourine but appreciates those who can.
Hey Burt you ate GREAT
Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra is just out of this world - listen to that full sound! Wow!
You are absolutely right ....!
What a great orchestra and conductor too.
Best version of the finale ever played by any orchestra. Period.
And the conductor walks off afterwards so casually. The ultimate mic drop.
最後のパフォーマンスが素晴らしいし、オーケストラの皆様も笑顔で、指揮者の人柄に惹かれます。
È un brano vivace e coinvolgente, questo spiega l'atteggiamento dei musicisti, e sicuramente il direttore d'orchestra ha una personalità che spicca molto. Fa piacere guardare e ascoltare questo video.

Incredible. This is what it is all about. The international sound of music.
