Oh, yes. Youth orchestra play like the bests. For example: the Orchestra from Music gymnasium Kranj (Slovenia) are numerous performances (posted by Zevnikov), perfect. The found for beautyfull future in concert music.
That triangle player was really going after it! There are no small parts or small instruments and William Tell would not be the same without the triangle.
Let's stop this moment and appreciate it excellent and outstanding performance job well done you should be proud rossini would be proud appreciate you guys thanks you made my weekend keep on playing you guys rock thanks ! Joe
First, a little history, I graduated from a small high school in Iowa in 1967, we only had 150 kids hut we had a 60 piece band that was well known throughout the state. We marched in a 6x10 formation with 6 brass tubas in the last row. I ws a big kid and was drafted into t❤he band while in the 7th grade to fill in during football games carry a tuba, the damn things weigh over 25 lbs if you didn't know. I carried it for over a year before the music teacher convinced me to give up the trombone and a become a tubaist. We also played 4 concerts during the year, my junior or senior year we played this. We were a purely brass band so no strings whatsoever, i don't know if it was our teacher or somene else who did the arrangement but he had us 3 permanent tuba players play the lead in the brass part. Most fun I had and everyone loved it. We also won the state concert band award that year. Sadly yhat is all forgotten now because the school no longer exists now.Twin Rivers High School, Class of 67. GO PIRATES!!!
i graduated from a mid-sized high school in Florida in '67. We didn't have an orchestra. Actually, there was NO local orchestra at all. But the HS band director made up for it. One of the band concerts was nothing but overtures, including William Tell, Oberon, Barber of Seville, and something from Verdi (I forget which). Just imagine instead of violins and violas, there were flutes and clarinets (of every size).
I graduated from a one county high school in NC. It was the only HS but only 10-11-12 grade and approximately 2500 students. Marching Band had 250. We won all awards and were fantastic. Today it is only 27 members. Same with ROTC. We had 150 plus. Today it is 19 . And they are pathetic. Why? And what changed...
@@beanpodsPerhaps the music teacher retired? Similar situation at my high school in Sydney Australia. Our school had international music tours, the music was so good. Just don’t hear about it now.
This probably one of the greatest comments in reply to this overture I’ve read yet!! Thank you!! So many memories of the Bugs Bunny Roadrunner Hour!!! Looney Tunes rocked on Saturday morning!
I love Rossini's music, I love the William Tell Overture and I love THE PITTSBURGH YOUTH SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA! You guys couldn't have played this any better than you did here!
Rossini was perhaps the inspiration for his ' contemporary ', P. D.Q Bach ( 1807-1742?) Whose famous credo was ' FAST IS GOOD, LOUD IS BETTER, FAST AND LOUD IS BEST.'
Excellent and outstanding performance job well done you should be proud and amazed just image what a practice is before a real live concert you guys rock thanks keep on playing appreciate you guys thanks ! Joe
I find myself revisiting your performance of the "Overture", more frequently now that I found this video site. I can't tell you how much I enjoy your rendition of this piece. I will always have imbeded in my memory, a picture of "The Lone Ranger and Tonto", galloping out of my old Philco radio in a burst of thundering hooves Exclaiming, Hi-yo Silver, Away, and of course, Tonto, with his faithful ole mount," Scout" right beside. And, the familiar strains of "The William Tell Overture' blaring out as loud as I could get it on my old radio. Ahh yes, if we could only return to those "Glorious Days of Yesteryear"........ Again, I thank you so much for presenting this Magnificent work.
Impressive and inspirational! I auditioned during high school to play oboe for some youth symphony orchestra. It's a painful memory I try to repress. At that time, my embouchure had gotten messed up under my first teacher, and I was using my own reeds for the first time. So embarrassing! The eventual height of my double-reed career was playing oboe and English horn with a full orchestra, for a community theater production of The Sound of Music. That score has some memorable solos for both instruments.
I often wonder how the first audience to hear this reacted to the famous end section. Because the first sections gave absolutely no clue as to what was coming lol.
As he was famously nicknamed 'signor crescendo', you can rest assured that the first audience knew what to expect. But still the excitement of the ' Lone Ranger' section would stir the blood of anyone, you got that right. Now the first time anyone heard the Spije Jones version, including the hiccuphone, THAT would be a Schock!
Lucky me. I’ll be seeing it live on March 6th at the National Concert Hall in Dublin, Ireland. Along with Rachmaninov Piano Concerto 2 and Elgar Variations. Going to be some evening !!!
Jasonjohnston94...thank you for bringing the triangle player to my attention. Being unfamiliar to classical, this piece has opened my mind to a new and amazing genre. I had to zoom in to find him and watched each musician. Being a new convert I am looking forward to so much more. Beautiful!...Amazing!
I recall from my younger days when daytime TV was the best, when Warner Brothers had provided syndicated broadcast Merry Melodies or Loonie tones. There was a animated feature which had used The Williams Tell Overture as the orchestra in the back drop to express the emotional tug without dialogue this little Blackbird walking across the screen through a jungle it's steps coordinated with the beat and notes of the orchestra and reaction to violent thunder storm and then the recovery of nature following the storm. The last piece I recognized with the Lone Ranger series. Animation must have been designed for adults yet still appreciated from a child a heart.
A wonderful performance. Two things stand out - - The Finale is really crisp and tight - all of the musicians are really on top of the music and play the fast passages and the accents tightly together. - A special shoutout to the flutist. Those high octaves and other intervals at e. g. 8:00 take a lot of embouchure control.
@@Thekoolkids4 That IS PghL!! considering the actual fact of the matter being that there quite literally IS NO SUCH thing as ... "Someone else" .. "Were" all the same exact same individual. There is no "Were" or "we" .. Meaning that cello player is YOU.. That's basically you playing that instrument, If you disagree & say "Noo that's not mee, I can't play any instrument" .. thing is, each of those musicians aren't accomplishing a single thing that you wouldn't of, had you of been born in THEIR shoes..& if hypothetically that was the case, then it'd be them in your shoes saying the exact same thing. Remember that.. None of those people on that stage are special or "advanced" in any way that you arent. They're all just the result of purely coincidental LUCK & nothing else. They ARE you.. You are them, I am them, You are who I am, were all the same person. No one is 'better' than anyone else .. because there isn't ... anyone "else" ..
...diese Ouverture von Rossini mag ich sehr, und zwar der ausgesprochen auffallende Dualismus, der sich durch das gesamte Stück zieht, indem immer wieder sehr kontemplative Passagen sehr agitierten iuxtapositoniert werden, und der Wechsel von e-Moll nach E-Dur zu Beginn in der Cello-Cantilene, die sehr an den Anfang des dritten Satzes des zweiten Klavierkonzertes von Brahms erinnert, mag das als Vorbote des gesamten Stückes schon indizieren, wobei ich sehr 4:45 aufwärts mag - die Terzfälle von e nach c, d nach h, c nach a und h schließlich auf die Tonika g, wobei meine Lieblingsinterpretation dieser Sequenz ( ...da meine ich hier ausschließlich die Tonabfolge und nicht etwa die liturgische Sequenz... ) bei Karajan ist. Der Impetus der Schweizer nach einem Ende der Willkür, die es nicht hinzunehmen gilt, sondern gegen die gestürmt werden soll, ist hier sehr schön als wortloses Drama inszeniert, wobei mir das unter Verwendung derselben von Schiller auch sehr gefällt, und es erinnert thematisch an die Zeit in Rom, als sich das Volk gegen die Patrizier auflehnte, indem es der Willkür überdrüssig war, und auf Veränderungen pochte, sodass in Rom zum ersten Mal zum Gewohnheitsrecht geschriebenes Recht kam, das in zwölf Tafeln festgehalten wurde... ...es zeigt sich aber, dass solche Normierungen keine Garantie sind, dass einer nicht bedrückt und bedrängt wird, wenn eine Clique nur korrupt und dreist genug auftritt, die glaubt sie könne sich über Gesetz und Recht hinwegsetzen... Le p'tit Daniel, der zu den Seinen stürmen wird, um seine Freundin und seine anderen Engel endlich knuffeln zu können und seinen Gegnern sei, was er mit < Slawenalarm > häufig schon beschrieb!!!!!
The bass drum is killing the microphone. Placement of recording equipment is always crucial with orchestras. Other than that it's a very beautiful rendition of Rossini's William Tell Overture! Bravo!!!

This. This gives me hope. This gives me hope that there are more of these kids out there. Beautiful
I cannot upvote this enough.
So shines a good deed in a weary world.
Yeah man. There will always be band nerds. :D
What tremendous youth talent. Bravo!
This is a YOUTH orchestra?
Wow.

What? No cow bell?😆
Bass drum was a bit overwhelming.
what? sounds like MIA...
I used to play the triangle at school😂
That was beautiful to hear, the theme to the Lone Ranger!
Rossini was a genius.
The solo cello is stupendous
My high school orchestra played this piece; the audience gave them a standing ovation! Ted Miles North Shore High School Class of 1968

i see
There are lots of 1950, 60s and 70s cartoons with a lot of parts of this overture used in them.
Bravo!!! A classic brought to life by very talented young musicians.
The finale starts a little before 11. It goes on for about a minute. The music stops at exactly 12:00. And there is a 37 minute ovation much deserved.
THANK you! I only had a few seconds to ID it and you saved me! 😎🥷🏻
What a great performance.
Very well done! Bravo!

The final section are frequently used in horse racing TV programme.
Wonderful how the drummer plays, I can hear the hoofbeats!
Bravo ❤
Excellen rendition , masterfully played....
After the slight faltering of the cellist in the beginning, it all came together beautifully, and the musicianship was very tight. Bravo!
oh! there is so much more in this overture than we normally know....
Rossini is unparalleled in subtleness
One of the greatest clips of this is The Mom Song.....
I never thought I'd make such a comment on an orchestral work, but: this triangle player is really outstanding! :'D great overall performance too!
Bravo, cheerios,
it's the Lone Ranger song. haha. anybody remember that great show from the 50s?
I remember it on the radio every Monday, wednesday, and Saturday evening around 7 pm, back in the late 40's and early 50's, on my old Philco radio.
WELL DONE..!!!
