Note that old guitar the guy is playing. That looks like an old Silvertone or something. Similar to what somebody like Mother Maybelle Carter of the Carter Family used in the 1930's. Whatever it is, it's an old model judging from its design and appearance.
The Orchestra was "born" on the 28th of October 1925!.......... So next year is the 100th birthday and knowing DR (I am a Dane), they won't waste a good celebration. Maybe something big is coming, who knows? Keep an eye on their homepage.
It depends on the school, at my high school I was in orchestra and we always played cool pieces (soundtracks and such). We had basic and advanced guitar classes, jazz classes, music fundamentals classes, multiple types of bands, multiple choirs, three different orchestras and more. Too bad that you don't have access to that.
Seems like the volume of the music needed to be a little louder in this reaction guys. I can actually hear your room noise and breathing over the music at times. I don't know if ya'll are able to adjust that or not. Maybe you're able to add more volume on the music and less volume on your room volume? But anyway, just saying. Great reaction as usual.
Good question about no guitars in school bands. But I assume it's been the same for most string instruments in general. From what I remember in my school, the traditional function of band in schools was for Marching bands and football games etc. I never used to see school bands in a concert 'Orchestra" situation. At least at the schools I went to. I could be wrong about that. I'm just guessing.
When I was doing percussion in grade school, the school choir was made up of students taking the musics classes. I imagine guitar was not in my concert band (or any concert band) setup because that music was a bit traditional and at the time that music was written guitar may have been considered too Rock n Roll or Bluesy (just my guess). But I agree there would be many tunes where it could be used.
They do an excellent version of the theme from the movie "Psycho". They also did a couple of the James Bond movie themes. "Golden Eye" and "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".
said it before and I'll say it again, please do - Shannara Chronicles - Until We Go Down // The Danish National Symphony Orchestra (LIVE) , it also has Tuva at her best, and will blow you away. You were talking about the choir being integrated, but obviously DR1 also use their Girls choir separately, as you will find in this all Danish 'The Bridge' DR TV Show signature tune 'Hollow Talk' originally made by the Danish 'Choir of Young Believers', so go search for .... Hollow Talk // DR Pigekoret
BTW, the DR1 (and National) Symphony Orchestra is the Danish equivalent to the English BBC1 Symphony Orchestra, so it's top quality public service, and if you make a deeper dive, you will find that they have the same kind of high production standards to make children like this kind of symphony orchestra music for educational purpose to "nurture" their development.
Why is it a schools place in order for children to pick an instrument to learn and play? Why is it a schools place to join a choir? It’s a parents place to buy an instrument for their child if they are passionate about it. It’s a parents place to take their child to join a church choir. If the child is passionate about it. It’s not the schools place. It’s not the states place. It’s the parents place. Great reaction though.
because the schools can then provide the instruments for gifted students to Realise that they are gifted. you know what a Saxophone costs? or a Piano? And who wants a neighbour with a Tuba or drumset?
@@steenjacobsen1474 It’s not a schools purpose to provide the instruments, it’s the parents job. Gifted students? There are no gifted students. Only students that apply themselves, practice, dedication and sacrifice. Nobody is born knowing how to play a musical instrument. Just as nobody is born, knowing how to read, write and speak fluent ancient Latin. Anyone can do it provided they dedicate themselves to the discipline. I am aware brass instruments and Steinway are expensive. However piano lessons and practice are not unreasonable. Second and third hand brass instruments can be snapped up at bargain prices if you search around. Don’t expect others to provide what you yourself are able but not willing to provide. Very few children grow up to be good enough to play in a prestigious orchestra. But what they do achieve is the ability to play an instrument they love. That’s the gift that will be with them always.
@@leeclarke917 Must be nice to live a life of priveledge like that in stead of looking for your next meal. You seems to be making the argument that everyone can do anything, at least in music. That you could be the Brian May or Lars Ulric. I highly doubt that is how the world works. Talent needs to be nurtured not held back. Why would any child want to pick up an instrument or for that matter know which one they like before trying? Are you suggesting that parents should buy multiple or perhaps all instruments for their kids to try out? If you line of reasoning is taken to its conclusion there is no need for librearies or indeed public school. You can always pay for it. And again, it is far bettet to have kids play at school than at my neighbours appartment.
