Young Opera Singer Reacts To The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - The Danish National Symphony Orchestra 

Is anyone else moved to tears by Ennio Morricone's music, or am I the only one?

The whistling lady, Tuva Semmingsen, is an incredible mezzosoprano. Check her out on RU-vid.

Morricone's entire budget for this film was probably less than the cost of this one performance. A true genius of film score composition.

If you look closley, the lady who is doing the wha.wha, have pistol earrings in.. And the part where the piano start is called " the ecstasy of gold "

Since nobody seems to have mentioned that this is a film score I advise you to watch the movie. It's about 3 hours long but every component is great. Great music, great scenery, great plot, great acting and great cinematography. You won't even notice that you have been sitting still so long that you are sore until after the movie has finished.

A German financed, Italian film, produced in Spain is the greatest American western of all time.

Ennio Morricone was a true genius. One story I read about him was he was working on a film and the score wasn’t working. He left and said he’d be back with the revised music. He returned 72 hours later with a complete score with all the necessary parts arranged and the score worked perfectly.

After viewing thousands of the "reactions", you by far are the only ONE that knew the facts of the score, the composer, the 1966 movie, and the elements of an orchestra. You should be very proud!

Ennio was a perfect example to anyone not understanding music, but knowing that there is something special. Ennio was special.

Rumor says, the guy hanging from the roof is the 1st violinist, he was late for rehearsal

I always love listening to this. Love how they use their voices as instruments and not using them lyrically. Enjoyed this and, as always, great reaction.

I may be a rock/metal guitarist, but this is my favorite composition ever.

When Christine sings in the forest, the birds shut up and listen.

This is fantastic Aliyah - thank you for reacting to this. The Danish Orchestra does a brilliant job, as always. Here, I have always liked the conductress and the way she reaches into the sky. Ennio Morricone was simply a genius. He was not just a composer and conductor, he was also a trumpeter which explains the impressive trumpet parts in his music. Without his music, those famous Westerns and also The Mission would have been less successful. His collaboration with Sergio Leone was a once-in-a lifetime occurrence. Ennio and Sergio brought the American Western industry to its knees. Every minute in those movies was a work of art. I could go on.... but people are beginning to yawn 😭 For you Aaliyah, if you haven't seen The Good, the Bad and the Ugly I strongly recommend you watch it. Watch out for the two words spoken by Clint Eastwood (Blondie) - "You dig" 😮 Greetings from cowboyland y'all! 🤠

I think the multiple trumpets starting at 4:51 reflect the chaos of the civil war scenes from the movie - competing sounds of bugles communiicating battle plans, clearly audible to each side, and yet each with a different battle order - and in the movie - right afterward the death of the young soldier and the captain speaks to the futility of the war and I think the competing trumpets captures some of this.

Great reaction ❤ Thanks Aaliyah ❤ And I Love Lara Fabian ❤ Love from Denmark ❤

Beautiful, the Danish National orchestra are one of my favourite orchestra's, listen to the live performance of procal Harem's whiter shade of pale backed by the Danish National orchestra, it's one of my favourite live performances ever.

"The Good, The Bad & The Ugly" is the final movie in the "Dollar Trilogy" (The other two being "A Fistful of Dollars" and "For a Few Dollars More"), the soundtracks for all three movies are epic. Metallica have used "The Ecstasy of Gold" as their live intro music since the early days as well. If you haven't seen the movies they really are worth checking out. The music fits the movies perfectly and really adds to the character and atmosphere, they are very unique. Great reaction, really nice to see you adding more musical analysis and commentary.

Christine Nonbo Andersen became world famous from singing this piece. I've seen this video dozens of times over the years, and I still get chills when I hear Christine hit those high notes, singing in the upper balcony by herself.

the harmonies from the vocalist and the choir are very good

I love this

Hi Ailiyah from the UK (Windy Wales 😊). Thanks for reacting to this but I must admit that as wonderful as this piece is I have always been in love with his other great score for a classic western, Once Upon A Time In The West, which incorporates some very beautiful singing from a mezzo soprano I'm guessing and his score for The Mission which ends with one of the best choir pieces in film; just my humble opinion 😎 I'm a lifelong opera and classical music lover and wish there were more reactors of those great arias and pieces, I've had my own classical reaction channel for a while if you fancy looking in? 😊 JB Classical although I've not posted for a while. Stay talented and beautiful!

the transition from the first part is soo good

we all got chills from the last part

The Danish National Symphony Orchestra has also done the score for the other two films in the trilogy, "A Fistful of Dollars" and "For a Few Dollars More" and they're, believe it or not, just as good.

🇨🇦 The DNSO consists of over 100 musicians and over 70 Choir members ! 🇨🇦

Best movie ever

You should listen to their score of "Once upon a time in the West" at the same concert.

Do more of this ^^

Ecstasy of Gold is a high point if 1960s cinema soundtrack composition. It transcends genre.

Sincere and inspiring reaction.

thank you for talking about the obo

Just remember, people did this...a group of people, different backgrounds and nationalities, all pulling together and if ONE single note is out of place, ONE, the entire piece is ruined...I can't imagine the hard work, discipline and raw talent that goes into this, none of us will...OK having said that, this is from legendary composer Ennio Morricone (1928-2020) and among many others scores, this is his crowning achievement and many of todays composers have been heavily influence by him, legend just isn't enough, the director of this movie was Sergio Leone (1829-1989), another director who has also influenced many others like Martin Scorsese and Quinten Tarantino, legend doesn't do him justice either, both these men are way beyond that....OK the orchestra itself, world renowned and just listen to what else they have done... Tuva Semmingsen (Wah Wah) is a Norwegian Barocco and Mozart mezzo-soprano singer, she's wearing gun shaped earrings to boot! There's a harmonica in sync with her during those wah wah's and check out her other works, (Bang Bang), Christine Nobo Anderson is another beautiful singer, you have to have, besides the raw talent, an incredible amount of training to control your diaphragm and breathing to use such an instrument, the entire piece is just amazing and really is the only event I would pay a grand a ticket to see.

Awesome reaction! 🎵 Please also listen to (U.S.) Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings", the tragic music for "Platoon", Oliver Stones' epic movie about our war in Vietnam, & at JFK's funeral, it was played because it had also been his favorite Classical piece.

The Mezzo soprano is THE BEST

aaliyah should be reacting to the late patricia janeckova's versions of 'ecstasy of gold' & 'once upon a time in the west'! patricia died last year from breast cancer aged 25!!!

As a beautiful young intelligent unique girl like me , u definitely chose one of the best artists that ever existed to actually react to here on RU-vid ❤ This entire soundtrack to this whole trilogy of films is beautiful 💎 Check out all of the Dollars Trilogy soundtracks by Ennio , they are all amazing ❤ RIP Mistro 🕊️

The music was the star of the movie. Morricone also did the music to the movie - Once upon a time in the west. Another beautiful piece in there called Jill's theme - i believe.

The arpeggio at the start of the second movement (ecstasy of gold) is amazing and iconic. My favorite part.

Enio and Sergio were in a same school as kids, best film ever, and Tuva make great ever Whah Whah

Thx Aaliyah for another great interesting reaction. And since you've also released the Rebekah Del Rio reaction today, I feel "double-spoiled" 😅

It is a live performance. That is crazy

The score has a pretty big influence on pop culture. A fairly recent example of a sampling is the song Unforgiven by LE SSERAFIM. Nile Rodgers contributed a lot of the vibe here and the title fanfare is particularly recognizable in the 2nd verse.

Morricone è un genio ❤️🇮🇹

Adoro la musica del maestro Ennio Morricone e adoro questo video!🥰 Cara Aaliyah, sei bravissima e bellissima!❤️

I always like her reactions.

The score's name "The Ectasy of Gold". Metalica performs a little different version.

It was a great movie with great music

As another Dane I follow these reactions, so Thank You! The hanging man is from the Story Line in the film, as Clint Eastwood, as a shadow in the background! Ennio Morricone gave a Concert i Copenhagen about a year before he died, but I could have hoped for him to listen to this full Orchestra!

Imagine that this orchestra was slated to be closed in a cost cutting exercise, alongside the girl choir , but there was a massive public uproar

Once Upon a Time in the West - The Danish National Symphony Orchestra & Tuva Semmingsen (Live)

Ennio Morricone è un genio

You must see the film now.

❤❤

07:00 English horn, not oboe.

sei bravissima, grazie

great channel girl, now you heard this, just as a bit of fun, check out, the little old man, italian busker, does the good the bad an the ugly, he is off the charts, but good bit of fun to watch

You would like Once Upon a Time in the West by the same folks.

They also perforned great versions of A Fist Full of Dollars and A Few Dollars More.

😍😍😍😍😍😍

a world class singer - singing WA - WA - WA .... i couldn't stop laughing !!

Aaliyah Capili this was made for getting more people to hear classical, what do you thing of that

Thank you for this great reaction and analysis ! Could you please someday react to Battlestar Galactica Symphony Orchestra WANDER MY FRIENDS ULTIMATE SUITE Bear McCreary FIMUCITÉ 2010" ? The orchestra is directed by the autor Bear McCreary himself. Thank you again and have a great day !

Carissima e bravissima giovane cantante cerca i video con le musiche dei film composte e dirette personalmente nei suoi maestosi concerti dal grande Maestro Ennio Morricone. Un piacere alle quali ho potuto assistere per 2 volte nella mia città. R.I.P. maestro Ennio Morricone. Orgoglio italiano nel mondo 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

Those chimes tho... 😀 Probably my favorite percussion instrument in the orchestra. Marimba speaks to me too, but it's not really an orchestral instrument.

Music that helped make the Spaghetti Western famous. Please consider reacting to some other music soundtracks. Some of them are wonderful.

Monteverdi did this split singer thing only with choirs.. You should know this, it gives the voice a more ethereal sound as if it's coming from the heavens!! I'm just going to say here I still can't get over the death of Patricia Janečková who lost her battle with breast cancer. I remember her when she was on 14 or 15 singing, at a beauty pageant, Once Upon A Time In The West. This is all soprano and really hard to sing..The girls in the pageant, well just watch their reaction it's priceless!!!

Riding into Town Being in Town and Riding out of Town

That was a body hanging!

Tuva Semmingson is one heck of a Soprano.

Me agradó su reacción a esta obra del maestro Ennio Morricone ( que en paz descanse) ... Pero setia mejor que compararas la original del maestro Ennio .. ya que es mas epica

Nicely done, Aaliyah!! Enjoyed your reaction, as usual!

Morricone is the Tarantino of music imho :)

Em dễ thương quá...

Please react to Glennis Grace version of Halo live- it sounds just like Beyoncé

Please listen to Once Upon A Time In The West ❤❤❤

It’s 2 different songs, “the good the bad and the ugly” and “ecstasy of gold”

4:15 "there's something hanging." actually..... that is someONE hanging. an ode to the movie..... it's a western..... someone's always gotta hang in a western.

Harmonica Man once Upon a time in the west

React to Vixen, great 80s female band

I have to say, what are the chances of someone being born with the ability to sing opera, that actually likes it. I couldnt imagine the number would be high, right?Opera is pretty niche.

This reminds me of another Danish orchestra. Olsen Banden - Elverhøj ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UuAevxbgjc8.html

This town ain't big enough for the both of us.

The guy hanging came late for practice, lol

Your a lovely girl and I’m sure very knowledgeable but the continued stopping kill the flow of this beautiful arrangement.

Yes, great ,but the scene in the film with the music in the context can not be surpassed .

Sorry im late, but did you really know about Chrstine before?

Not a first time reaction

Why is nobody watching the Original Version???

Opera singer, eh? I wish in every performance you'll have in the future, your audience to stop you/pause your performance after only 1 minute to just talk with each other about their memories and shit. Learn to respect music, never pause

Their reaction was misguided. You interrupted at key moments, where one should appreciate the magic of instrumental creation....

i don't like absolutelY the soprano: she does'nt sing, not a vibrato sound, she CRIES, not all

Stop interrupting and let it play out, and then speak.

Too much pausing

A real bad arragement😢SO MUCH GREAT MUSICIANS, WHO CREATED A BAD ARRAGEMENT....WATCH 1 MUSICIAN, AN INCREDIBLE MUSICIAN, PLAYING ALONE: JAMIE DUPUIS, A CANADIAN GUY....HE PLAIED: THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY....BUT, WHAT HE EXPLODED, WAS THE THEME OF THE EXCTASY OF GOLD....😢IT'S JUST A MASTERPIECE....Sometimes, some classical orchestra, should just play Chopin, or Bach, instead trying to play other things😂....Sorry....😂I, really, liked to see you singing... It was great....Peace from France 🌹
