+Luke Juras thank u
Thank you so much! This is really helping with my revision for school🤗
You forgot the tuba bum bum
Thanks, I added it in at 11:16. The reason why I initially omitted it was that it only gets FOUR NOTES! And then it's just an echo to the trombone melody again.
Thank you, needed to hear the cello at 6.45 & on what notes to lean , your timings meant I didn't have to go through the whole piece. Nice one.
So many people are from school, you guys are lucky, I want listening to music as assignments
We used to have music lessons in the main hall together with other classes and listen to Smetana. I used to imagine the music teacher dancing to the music.
for orchestra class lol
I take music appreciation and jazz so we're here for that mostly.
Its not an aasignment. Its a lesson. The assigbments are a weeks worth of memorizing stupid shit and wiriting dumbass essays
Same
Not only did the orchestra do an amazing work, but the cameras panned in on everyone and not just the violins for once. So happy with the whole!
When my class was given this as homework, I honestly thought it would be like 2 minutes
The Child That Sings Oof it’s 16 minutes lol
SAME
lol me too
Oml same
Welcome to classical music y'all
I had to listen to this for Music Appreciation and I had to get out of the class (too many classes at once to handle) but I'm so glad I had the chance to be introduced to this piece, its so beautiful.
We're happy that you like it 😊
@@WDRKlassikI also love it I heard this at an actual orchestra 🎻
The re-emergence of the main theme in the midst of the fugue always brings me close to tears. So beautiful

Who ever is watching this because of a college class, thumbs up for actually listening to it.....BMCC Music 103 son, shout out to Prof. Reeves!!!
The part at the end when all the orchestra join always always brings me to tears. It is so moving, powerful and uplifting.
❤
Agree
The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra, Op. 34, is a 1945 musical composition by Benjamin Britten with a subtitle Variations and Fugue on a Theme of Purcell. It was based on the second movement, "Rondeau", of the Abdelazer suite
Ikr I was in school 4th grade this year2023 i hit my desk so hard at the end
This was my favorite piece of music ever growing up. I mean all of it, start to finish, wonderful, powerful, thrilling. Benjamin Britten was an incredible composer. Left me out of breath with all the instruments(I tried conducting it in my room), and left me with a very thorough love of hearing music. Can't get enough. Try describing to your friends/parents/children etc. what each instrument was like for you personally. It'll leave you feeling so exhilarated...at least, it did me. I am so pleased this video was available to gift the world.
Shaelynn Johnson Thank you for so beautifully putting into words just how I feel about this music! I was introduced to this piece when I saw it performed by New London Philharmonic Orchestra when I was in 4th grade; the climatic ending brought me to tears. I’m now 77 yrs old, and I’m still so stirred each time I hear it. And so began my appreciation and love of beautiful music!
@@judithosborne1065you must be 80 while I'm listening to this very strong music 🎵🎶 8th of November 2023 Wednesday İstanbul

I’m here for school but I agree, I vibe to this

I clicked on the replies of this thinking they would be nice, but was shocked and surprised to see what our world is coming to and how horrible people are becoming.
@@joshuathompson4242 Right? I was shocked as well! There's absolutely nothing wrong with loving classical music, and listening to it does not mean you're nerdy or old (I'm in my 20s). In fact, I would actually argue that listening to it and appreciating it makes you a more sophisticated and respectable person, and I will believe that wholeheartedly for the rest of my life. Good for Britten for composing a piece like this, and good for all of the teachers out there who continue to share it with their students.
Also, thank you for taking the time to comment on this. It actually made my morning knowing that someone out there cared enough to point that out. I hope you're enjoying the piece as much as I am! :D
No matter how many times I hear it, my spine still tingles during the fugue at the entrance of the brass choir. Thank you, Baron Britten!
mine too.
bruh
Benjamin Britten
@@theofficialdragon497 Britten received a life peerage in 1976, becoming Baron of Aldeburgh. If my usage of the title was improper or disrespectful, I apologize...
respighi3 Wtf, why u apologising 🤣. This is youtube, not the Houses of Parliament.
My most distinctive memory from my 6th grade music classes was hearing this piece for the first time (as well as Henry Purcell's Rondeau, on the same day).
I was 11 or 12 years old, so you can really see how much of an impact that moment had on me, since I still remember it so vividly 17 years later.
That full orchestra playing the main theme of the piece in full power is one of the most majestic things ever.
It was actually only several years later that I reconnected with this song - because back in 2003/2004 I didn't have the access to the internet I have today - but listening to this piece still takes me back to that moment, when I was a little boy in class and got chills all over me when I heard this for the first time.
From this episode, it was only obvious that I became the person I am today, deeply interested in classical music and older music from the 60s-80s.
I can't speak for my colleagues from back then, but I'm almost sure I am the only one who got such a reaction from that moment in class.
"The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra" is based on a theme from Purcell's Abdelazar.
The soundtrack of the film Pride and Prejudice (2005) features another version of Purcell's Abdelazar theme titled "A Postcard to Henry Purcell" by the composer Dario Marianelli.
The end of the piece never fails to give me goosebumps. Love it!
Who is watching for school while quarantined
Edit: tysm for this many likes never had
meeeee!
Me

Sadly me :/
Traxx Art how did you know? Meeeeeeee!!!!!!!
This piece was my childhood and it certainly taught me about the instruments in an orchestra. Now I’m a bassoon fan and between listening to bassoon music and other stuff, I like to listen to Young Person’s Guide To The Orchestra just for fun.
I like to listen to this music me too .
im a bassoonist, and this makes me so happy! thanks for the appreciation XD
What a joy and energy in this. If I ever would want to show a child how nice classical music can be I would let them listen to this work of Britten.
NO ONE LIKES CLASSIC APART FROM OLD PEOPLE
I was 14 when I discovered classical music. So?
Richardc1083's best gaming oh no!
I wish the end had not been cut off so abruptly. The orchestra certainly deserved thunderous applause.
I'm here 'cause "Moonrise Kingdome".
...And because it's a great composition too!
Wes Anderson has always included great music into his great movies
I 'm so sorry for the folks who did not have anything interesting to write. Like it or not, this is an important piece of music, and like other music, should be taken seriously. Can you identify the instruments, or sections of the orchestra?
@@gregoryhubbard4068 ur grumpy..
This brings back memories of my music appreciation class I took while attending a university. What a great example of teamwork in a symphony orchestra!
I have been searching for this for forever because I just love the music from Pride and Prejudice!!! Thank you SO MUCH! The Theme is so beautiful
What a convincing performance of this masterpiece!
Why are some music classes so good. You guys actually get assignments like to watch. I wish my teacher did this.
Watching for A preference!My Music Teacher showed this to us in class-Coming back to the video because it's so beautifully Played!
Me too,
but you know im bored
This is my sanctuary to retreat to, when I have lost my light. Thank you Mr. Britten for most beautiful and moving masterpiece I have ever listened to!
And some thanks too to Mr Purcell (who wrote the original Tune).
Henry Purcell - Abdelazer Suite: II. Rondeau is source of opening theme for this- Britten's "Young [and Old] People's Guide..."
This makes me cry for some reason. The brass is sooo powerful!!
Same for me. The brass at the end of the fugue ... oh my.
Anyone here because of a school project or something similar?
yea xd
I'm Just Cameron i heard
that in school and i liked it now i am here 😂
Yup
Yes
You must have a good school my school was an inner city 💩 hole.
Everyone: I came for music class
Me: I came for the bassoon, the clarinet, the oboe and all of my favorite instruments
1: Clarinet
2: Flute/Bassoon
3: Oboe
4: French Horn
5: Trumpet
6: Violin/Cello
7: Trombone/Tuba
Who listened to this for school but ended up enjoying it?
Meee
Brings back good memories over a decade and a half ago from Music Appreciation class.. after having listened to this so many times for class and falling in love with the beautiful music ❤ might just grow on ya and leave an imprint 💖
This was on the very first CD I got for Christmas when I was 7 years old. It also had Peter and the Wolf and the Nutcracker on it as well
Hi, AaaahShaddaaap!
We have a video of Peter and the Wolf on our Homepage as well (Link: [www1.wdr.de/orchester-und-chor/wdrmusikvermittlung/videos/video-wdr-musiktheater-peter-und-der-wolf-112.html])
It is in German but maybe you like it anyways.
Same! It was a different CD, though. This song and the sorcerer's apprentice were my favorites on it.
Beautiful memories!
Outstanding work done by Britten, superb Orchestra, and Conductor. Would definitely want to watch this piece live one day.
The fuga is my favourite part of the composition is amazing
When I hear this, the image of Lizzy Bennet and Mrs Darcy dancing in Pride and Prejudice automatically comes to mind.
WATCHING FOR SCHOOL
i hate this trash
The wonderful cascading sounds of 'glorious' music. What a wonder to behold!
The final crescendo (final?) always sends shivers down by spine) the swirling notes over
the theme tune is for me unique. My all time favourite classical composition. I was fortunate to meet him once, courtesy of my late uncle
Coda is the finale
A beautiful one at that
The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra was composed by an English composer Benjamin Britten in 1945. He used a theme by Henry Purcell(1659-1695), who is a famous English composer of the seventeen century.

Thank you so much for this lovely performance beautifully filmed. So much what the piece has potential for. I wondered at first about the lack of subtitles for the instruments but then realised that made it truly international.
Hey! Here are the instruments in order of solos:
Woodwinds: flutes and piccolo, oboes, clarinets, bassoons
Strings: violins, violas, cellos, double basses, harp
Brass: French horns, trumpets, trombones and tuba
Then the percussion (timpani is the instrument that sort of guides the rest. You hear it throughout this solo)
timpani, bass drum, cymbals, tambourine, triangle, snare drum, wood block, xylophone, castanets, gong, whip`
I hope this helps
What a composition! Played beautifully. Thank you.
The grand finale with the brass always brings tears to my eyes.
🤗
I'm here from the music teacher
Lucia García same
and me
me too
x169 jajaa

this is so magnificent. They are soooo talented! I wasn't in band but I was in chorus, and might I add.... i LOVED it! I guess its the same, in chorus everyone have their specific section and all the harmonies add up to make a complete piece of music sound beautiful and thats exacly what theyre doing with their instuments. I love that the camera man gave everyone close ups on their specific "solo".
I look up to these men and women. These days, it really doesn't take as much dedication to be a famous artist. All you basically need is a decent voice, auto tune, and to get naked in a music video. But this is real, classy, beautiful, and pleasant music. These people are truly talented. I wish they got the same recognition that famous "artist" do today.
Indeed, this is beautiful music! Classical music is so under-appreciated nowadays, but because of wise people like you, this music can escalate to a higher status in the contemporary world.
As cellist Pablo Casals said in the 1900s, "Perhaps it is music that will save the world."
They don't play for fame or for much money today. In fact they earn less then the most who hear on their music. They just live for the music and are proud to practice their hobby for some people who know to respect their talents! :D
Denise Chavez Actually, famous classical artists these days get even more recognition, and are very talented. People who use autotune cannot be compared, because that is a different art form (if one at all).
antonpetrovichkoch I definitely agree with you! Today you have people like Martha Argerich, Daniel Barenboim, Yuja Wang, Jasmine Choi, Jeffrey Khaner, William Bennett, and James Galway dominating the classical music world
Denise Chavez ahhhhhhh shut the fuck up. we can acknowledge quality without degrading something we don't understand
I had to watch this for my intro to music culture class and id have to say I am blown away. Music is truly an art.
Moonrise Kingdom anyone?
Andrew Nguyen meeeee
lol analyzing that movie for my film studies course, forgot how much of a bop this song is
i saw this movie for my film studies but I love it
thank you that is the answer to one of my homework questions
meee
I JUST LOVE this music being used extensively in the movie of Wes Anderson's "Moonrise Kingdom" !
It´s beautiful. A real piece of musical art. Very nice.
Thank you! We're glad that you like it 😊
Listening to this comfortable performance,
all the troubles of the world disappear.
And
my soul Ìs healed and purified
Thank you 🥰 We are happy that our performance makes you feel that way!
OK so you "had to" listen to it for school - but did you enjoy it ?
it do be slapping\
Love it. I don't even understand how school is linked to the melody of a musical piece
its amazing i have to study this for homework for college BEST HOMEWORK EVER listening to good music :)
Bellísimo, con un potente comienzo y final, una de mis favoritas de la música clasica. GRACIAS POR ÉSTE VIDEO❤🎧🎶⭐🌹
Love this version. It has speed and life. Bravo!
the end of the fugue with both parts always makes my spine shiver, PS I played this in nco's summer course 2014 at Birmingham town hall, it was amazing.
Hey! I'm usually the only purple "W" This truly a magnificent recording. Video seems to catch every solo and the miking catches the low brass wonderfully. Has this recording ever been matched? Aug. 28, 2022. St.Joseph, MO, USA I'm 78 and TH-cam has been an incredible blessing to my life.
Gotta love the guy at 3:40, nobody can play a clarinet (at least i think it is) with such sass and energy
Esta es la pieza orquestal que más recuerdo con amor de mi infancia. ¡Hermosa!
Fabulous performance of a long-time favourite piece of mine. The woodwind solos were unbelievable.
UNENDLICHEN DANK für diese tolle Aufnahme ! Dies erinnert mich an meine Jugend , in den 1980er Jahren , da gab es ein SWF Schulfernsehen , Themenbereiche Mathe , Physik , Chemie , Kunst , und eben auch Musik . Und in Musik wurde eben dieses Werk einmal vorgestellt , mit dem damaligen Sinfonieorchester des Südwestfunkes . Eine der wenigen Aufnahmen , die ich damals - noch ohne TH-cam und Smartphone , mit meinem damaligen Musiklehrer , selbst Posaunist in ebendiesem Orchester . Gefunden hatte . Lediglich LA MER von Debussy und "Gruppen für drei Orchester" von Stockhausen , damals gespielt unter Michael Gielen in der Halle des SNCF in Stassburg . Schöne Zeit damals .... vielen Dank für den geistigen Ausflug in meine Vergangenheit !
Wir danken Ihnen für das schöne Kompliment und für's Teilen Ihrer Geschichte!:)
I remember hearing this in my middle school music class. Brings a tear to my eyes.
in highschool listening rn in class
you gotta appreciate this piece of art
Remember this so well from music classes at school c.1962-3,loved it so much , I had an ' Ace Of Clubs ' vinyl LP of it for my 12th birthday, ' Peter & The Wolf ', on the other side.Gave me the taste for classical music,the melody as the harp plays is sublime, my favourite piece,beautifully performed as well, many thanks !.
It is always a pleasure to open this musical example to teach students on the instruments of the orchestra.
I know some people (like me) will need to be able to identify each instrument without looking at the video. To help them, here is a Listening Guide from the textbook "The Enjoyment of Music" by Forney & Machlis, 11th Edition (p.66):
I. Theme: (0:05)
8 measures in D minor, stated 6 times to illustrate the orchestra families:

violins, harp, and triangle
oboes (+strings and timpani)
clarinets (+strings and tuba)
bassoons (+strings and snare drum)
(5:00) Strings: violins
brass and bass drum
violas (+woodwinds and brass)
cellos (+clarinets, violas, and harp)
double basses (+woodwinds and tambourine)
harp (+strings, gong, and cymbal)
(9:41) Brass: French horns
strings, harp, and timpani

timpani, bass drum, and cymbals
timpani, tambourine and triangle
timpani, snare drum, and wood block
timpani, castanets, and gong
timpani and whip

bassoons
Strings: (highest to lowest)
first violins
second violins
violas
cellos
double basses
harp
Brass: (highest to lowest)
French horns
trumpets
trombones, tuba
Percussion: various
(16:03) Full orchestra at the end with Purcell's theme heard over the fugue.
Notice the oboe solo variation... all on one breath? Impressive. And I'm a percussionist!
Looks like he's doing circular breathing. Some wind players can do it very well.
Exactly
Fabulous. I have always loved this piece of music!
I found out I’m playing this alongside Brahms 5 for my second ever Symphony concert season as a trombone player with my first performance being tonight 😅
I am SUUPER excited to perform this!! I LOVE how this piece highlights all sorts of different colors/tambres within the ensemble. Truly a masterpiece!
Hi, @Silas-Riep-Life! Good luck for your performance! Cheers
16:01 On the first listening, it was a mess for me but, during the second listening I understood. And now, every time I hear it, my mind completely freezes - it simply takes my breath out for that 45 seconds...
When I was younger, people sometimes said, listen to Britten, he is very inspiring and imaginative... And I usually said like MEH. Now I understand, that it is really something... that is real music from an extraordinary composer of modern music, who proved that it is possible to invent something new, while it may be still listenable, even more- absolutely beautiful. Sorry 4 my bad english...
Thank you Henry Purcell!
I agree with you!!
England's greatest composer!
Awww really Realmadrid you plastic
Love this piece! Especially the fugue!
I listened to a taping of this in 4th grade for an art contest! My entry only won an honorable mention at the time, but it got me 'hooked' on classical music just the same!
Who is here just because it's a beautiful and fantastic piece of music?
Chiara Corrado me
Me!
No one, and if you say you are, you're lying xD
@@tks-gimper7506 it's one of my favourite pieces since I was a child :(
And by the way we don't have music as a subject in highschool in Italy, so it would have been impossible to come here for the school😂
Meeeeeeee
Watching this for school in 2022?
Am Music Teacher in an International Schhol In Tunisia! I really appreciate this Piece of Music it's very helpful to introduce to students the Orchestra and the Elements of Music. Thank You
I really like this.
We had to watch this in Music yesterday and I really enjoyed this.!!!
I had to listen to this in my Music Appreciation class.
Me too
WDR Symphony Orchestra may not be as famous as Berlin, but they do have more than a decent sound. This performance AND this orchestra give that sound on what a professional orchestra should be. Give mad props to them...
Every child should be required to view and listen to this majestic presentation (it was written for them)
I love the hard work the pepole do in there music its really calm and pleasant 🤗
This is a wonderful piece. I remember playing the principle French horn part for this at school. The main melody and horn solo were fine. But the fugue part - I had to practice that until my lips bled. It sounded fantastic, though. It was definitely worth the blood.
I couldn't get this out of my head for months. Took me a few days to find, but I have finally found it.
I had a vinyl with this when I was little, so nostalgic!
Nice music i love it.
My teacher showed this at school! :D

+Bonnie Farrell me2
My teacher took us to the orchestra. First thing they played was this piece😄
On which School you are
meine Lehrerin auch
Very relaxing but energetic piece of music
3 years after hearing this in music class, I HAVE FINALY FOUND THIS PEACE OF ART!
The entire classical composition can not help a child clarify their dreams but manifest them much more effectively than usual. More specifically, the coda of this classical piece woke me up from almost every nap I had when I was 8 years old and made vulnerability so irrisistable. Highly recommended for any child.
5:11 my favorite part
I've loved this orchestra immensely ever since my band director played it for us when I was in fifth grade. Each time I revisit it, I'm immediately 11 years old again, awestruck by every part of the arrangement.
We are glad that we could turn back time for you like that. 😉
Best version I have ever heard!
one of the best classical pieces of all time
J adore l orchestre.vous jouez trop bien. Super bravo. 👏 ❤
Merci bien :)
I love Britten and I like music
My great uncle's dad was Benjamin's first piano teacher
