I wish I could get a cd of this performance. Definitely on my favorites list

[@lilytudor]

there's this undertone in their performance, like a constant buzzing.....that's what makes it extraordinary. i LOVE IT

[@cutencrazy07]

I love it
This is so amazing

[@Insanelycoolprincess]

I totally agree with you
I love Sibelius Symphony No.2
It is like a masterpiece

replaying 6:00 over and over and over again. AMAZING!

[@comalley0130]

the movement of this orchestra is amazing, and it really helps them play. i play bass and i get so into the pieces, even with a 6 and a half inch instrument in my hands, im swayin, swingin, kinda makin an ass of myself, but i feel the music, which is what classical music needs to be outstanding

[@KarierteLoecher]

sweet soul music....

[@Ari-vk1lx]

To all of you who think it's annoying that the winds are "rocking". First off, we cannot express our sound but through our mouths. I find that when I "rock", I am really, playing. I did not learn this. It was something that developed whilst practicing. It is how I express my sound through my body. Some conductors hate it. Most do not care. As long as my intonation and sound is fine, ROCK ON woodwinds!

[@KevinVanOrd]

Thanks for being awesome. Physical expression is part of our musicianship.

[@emdb1981]

Whoa Woodwinds, settle down its not a dance competition, you are awesome, everyone notices you that's enough.

@SorgenkindDesLebens not some, most! this is an amazing performance!!!!!

[@falenjo5]

Ugh.. I wish this was one video. I want it on my MP3 player so badly.

[@UturnatA2]

@freekydeekydutchVI well said. I really wonder if that youth orchestra he is talking about really was able to play the music (probably only the notes at most)

[@The1234asdf1234asdf]

6:00 and on is the best part!

[@DanielSeymour4]

This piece is simply amazing... i got goosebumps at @5:12

[@ljumpsky9519]

Oh God, yes! I feel that this whole symphony exists for this and everything else is preparing us for it.

[@Thoraxziod]

Does anybody know if the melody starting from 1:00 in this piece is a quote of anything. It sounds somehow familiar to me.

[@xevanjx1]

@Chessmapling that, and the 7 measures of build up before that :)

[@Stuksy]

5:20
lol nice trumpet intro

[@user-jl1ch1vp6o]

פנטזיה מוזיקלית מופלאה

[@8pdng2]

@kiwihead441 id say we did pretty good!

[@Vocalinds]

@emdb1981 Hah, it seems to be that one clarinet player who's the most carried away, complete with finger splays between fingered notes.

[@jodic.rosalejos4474]

6:01

[@jakem4444]

i agree haha. i would move when i'd play violin. even when i played this song but they look ridic

[@Chessmapling]

5:13 my favorite part

[@SorgenkindDesLebens]

"basically for a youth orchestra"? Nonsense. This is a superb performance, even some professional orchestras would play that worse!
