As an orchestral musician with limited tolerance for conductors who engage in choreography to draw attention to themselves, rather than helping the musicians play well together, i find these (unwitting) caricatures of conducting to be absolutely hilarious. I can somewhat excuse Uchida, as at least her gestures, as odd as they are, seem to be in service of the music, but some of the piano-ists look like absolute buffoons. Perhaps that is the image (Friedrich) Gulda in that hat is trying to cultivate, but the "triple axel" Rach 3, what a silly joker...
Some of these are absurd because you simply can't do Rachmaninov or Beethoven's Emperor without a conductor. The best is Uchida because she's a great pianist and because you don't need a seperate conductor in Mozart piano concertos, though it does help. She's a decent conductor here. Don't forget that she's communicating with the 0rchestra when conducting, NOT with the audience. It's not like Cab Calloway, who was just beating time. Also, I think Gulda (in the Emperor) played the piano part well.
@@Kaoskadosk What's funny is while I was watching the video I was wondering if it were possible to conduct and play something as hard as Rach 3 at the same time.. That was the exact moment this clip came up, answering my question.
(2:50) "The coast is clear".....at least he looks like he's having a good time...lol...like he's not taking himself too seriously. He reminds me of Oscar on the "Odd Couple".....backwards hat and all xD
Although Gulda's gesture is pretty weird, but his music is excellent I really love the Beethoven 5th piano concerto he performed. But what happened to Mr. Gavrilov??Couldn't believe that's him......
My God, I laugh and get angry at the same time. Except Barenboim, no one is a real conductor. Btw, it is just me or Gavrilov is playing worst every year?
1:35 who is that? The others i get, they're conducting Arachmaninoff or Mozart's 20th, but this guy's conducting a nursery rhyme like it's Beethoven's 10th
I love classical music. Everything from funny stereotypes to intense passages to insanely beautiful pieces. It really moves me.

Do more of this, please.. I am literally rolling in laughter now
I will show you, don’t worry. Lol k
@@bolanddewsnap5698 spoiler alert: he REALLY DID NOT.
Poor guy.
Everytime I find one that I like the next one is better.
OMG so hysterical. Clever. I'm a concert pianist and this nailed the styles of conducting. Mitsuko was esp funny.
Concert pianist has a particular meaning.
gotta love Mitsuko Haha
philly cream cheese OMG HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA WEAVE WHERE ART THOU!
"cheese nom nom"
Keith Foester or "caught me a fish"
I made it until 2:55
Literally thought that was hj freaks at first
my gosh this is PURE GENIUS
Netflix and chill! That one got me. Thanks, I needed the laugh.
This turned out to be dimensions funnier than I expected 😂😂😂
I LOVE this video!!! One of my conducters had mastered the Sophie’s choice and headbangers ball
I love how half of them are from the Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto
GULDA is the man!!! 😃😃 But see what beautiful sound he gets out of the orchestra 😎
This is one of the funniest videos I have ever seen!
Yeah but Mitusko Uchida gets a great performance as does Barenboim
Oh my god IM CRYINNGGG THIS IS TOO HILARIOUS
Mitsuko loves the music a what she does.

heres a little known fact: i put "pixie hands" in my conductors notes. about time someone followed my cues.
I will NOT
The music goes well with the gestures as well.
Uchida rocks! Love that woman!
Philly Cream Cheese nomnomnomnom
we want more please. We need more!!!
I’m a pianist and I found this the funniest video I’ve seen in a month
Rach 3 was very disrespectfully portrayed.
My thought was "If you're going to conduct as well as play the piano, why the *hell* do you pick Rach 3 to do it?"

@@tidnid1869 Have you heard Rachmaninoff's recording?
Absolutely
Chopin 1 has the flexibility, not rach 3
truly hysterical!
Friedrich Gulda was truly a goddamn legend...
1:09 let's take a moment of laugh❤❤
Daniel Barenboim's spot on
Thanks for making me laugh so much!!!!
"The coast is clear"
Gulda is by far the most hilarious
Everyone overboard
@@sebastianzaczek My personal favourite is "Philly cheese nom nom". The last part just killed me.
And "Netflix and chill" is just MOOD :-)
YES
NO
MAYBE SO
Absolutely brilliant
(2:50) "The coast is clear".....at least he looks like he's having a good time...lol...like he's not taking himself too seriously. He reminds me of Oscar on the "Odd Couple".....backwards hat and all xD
This is so awesome, I love that everyone has a different style! Also, I think 1:54 was a young Daniel Barenboim, so that was cool to see
Thank you so much for this!
6:00 My favourite one
A new Olympic event. Like synchronized swimming only faster. The triple axel was brilliant, that would get a 9.5 (his recovery needs some practice).
Lol Mitsuko san make my day!! hahahahahahahahaha!
Stranger Things?
I did NOT know she was a fan lol.
@@glenngouldschair390 she was trying to call mozart from his grave
Although Gulda's gesture is pretty weird, but his music is excellent
I really love the Beethoven 5th piano concerto he performed.
But what happened to Mr. Gavrilov??Couldn't believe that's him......
Richter advise he have a problem of egomania and narcissism to be a good musician
Oh dear what is it with these guys butchering Rachmaninoff so badly 😂
the first one, here: 0:12, GOD, those last notes were a mess.
I wanna cry 😂😂😂
And guess what. He is the winner of 1974 Tchaikovsky competition!!! LMFAO
I'm picturing Sergei making these gestures and expressions and my brain is exploding.
Daniel Lu Sergei was actually apparently very restrained both with the piano and conducting.
This is sooooo good
My God, I laugh and get angry at the same time. Except Barenboim, no one is a real conductor. Btw, it is just me or Gavrilov is playing worst every year?
He's going the way of the Pogorelich
"how the mighty have fallen" indeed
You must thank to God that Pogorelich doesn't conduct.....
Well, he does force conductors to chase after his random tempi.
And Barenboim uses nothing but his eyebrows.
Please make more of these!!
I LOST IT IN STRANGER THINGS HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
4:34 i love Mozart ❤️
LMAO... Most appropriate move descriptions ever :D
You genius, thank you!!!
4:02 Look at the lady's resigned expression. Hahahaha...
Same expression at 1:28
haha oh man that's so gold. he may as well be spitting on her and her morale is just gone
I bring to you all the conducting styles of Carter Simmons. You're so amazingly welcome!
I know what you did last summer 😂 best one
17 pianists have downvoted this video.
When the classic beat drops
The Fuggedaboutit is my favourite. Notice the guy in the audience who just starts laughing when it's over.
Please put the name of these pieces up pls pls
Someone :You are the conductor
That dancing man : No I'm the condancetor
Someone : The ... who?
1:26
I thought this a serious demonstration. It's entertaining.
Love it
What's the concerto young Daniel Barenboim is playing? (the first one) It's beautiful!
Mozart 26 & 13
this is genius
jetzt kapiert hoffentlich jeder, was der Unterschied von einemPianisten und einem richtigen Dirigenten ausmacht.
Danke schön (Trans: "Now, hopefully, everyone will understand the difference between a pianist and a real conductor")
hoffentlich...
Ja, ein Pianist kann Klavier spielen 😜
I am crying of laughter!
Lovely! But the clips are sooo short :)
this is so hilarious and true at the same time rip
Expertly observed.
BRAVO!!!
My god this is too good I'm dying
I'm more amused by the titles than I am by the ….conductors...?? ...Philly Cream Cheese...nom nom ….Fear and Loathing at the Finnish Disco.…. x-D
Wow he did an Axel at the end...
I kind of like Uchida. As a cellist, I have issues with Daniel Barenboim, even though he's an outstanding pianist and conductor.
Poor Jacqueline 😥
Awesome I laughed so hard
Its more amazing that you found all the matching moves lol
The last one really is something.
Van Cliburn was epic though
This is hilarious!
Pianists are a damn menace
hillarious
LOVED IT...🤣🤣🤣
this is actually amazing hahahaha
hahaha! This is the best. :D
great video great humour lol
クライヴァーンとグルダのかっこよさは異常
Surprised there is no Glenn Gould
SOMIT2003 his video recordings are very rare due to his shyness and preference for audio recordings
Glenn Gould wasn't a pianist + conductor. He was a pianist + choir.
@@lollycopter when he plays, he become a pianist+conductor+choir.
Anyone know where that shoulder bounce comparison video is from at 4:27?
0:59 Clean
At least we know they're enjoying themselves hahaha
What piece is Barenboim playing from 2:36?

Art Song Transpositions Thank you very much
1:12 *HULK SMASH*
Who the heck is the pianist at 1:15!
who's the "4th down with 3 seconds to go" pianist at 1:12 ? would like to listen to the full recording ^^
I lost it at Headbanger's Ball.
1:50 and 2:36 is the same pianist BTW.
Good vid
I can’t stop laughing at the “Stranger Things” moment.
this is freakin’ hilarious. :}
Now that's conducting.
1:35 who is that?
The others i get, they're conducting Arachmaninoff or Mozart's 20th, but this guy's conducting a nursery rhyme like it's Beethoven's 10th
Naoumoff. He's brilliant but he does seem crazy as a shithouse rat.
It's a Mozart concerto where's the respect ?
And now watch in double speed
jhsdkfsjgd CAUGHT ME A FISH slndhsnfsvhipefwe MY WIG SNATCHED
What concerto is Van Cliburn playing from 00:57?
All of Van Cliburn's clips are Prokofiev's third concerto
I still know what you did last summer😂
I love Gulda!
