My Dad's Uncle Louie Soriano is in this video....he was a member of the Sym-Phony Band....he played the drums most of the time....I have heard some great stories over the years. My Dad would sometimes get into the Dodgers games with the Band when someone couldn't make it...he would carry an instrument and sit with them. There is a section in Cooperstown devoted to the history of the Brooklyn Dodgers and mentions the Band which tells their story. Great memories!
Forget about the Brooklyn Academy of Music, or Carnegie Hall, as far as I'm concerned this video and the memories of "dese guys" and the Brooklyn Dodgers of that era should be in the Smithsonian! God bless the Sym-Phony, the Dodgers of that time, and all who loved them... and love them still.
Wonderful documentary
Be they the "Big Blue Wrecking Crew", or be they "Dem Bums", you gotta love those Dodgers 🙃🙂😊💙‼️
The San Francisco Giants Sym Phony was lead by conductor Freddy Lewis, who played the harpsichord.

What a great film! My mom was a Brooklyn Dodgers fan, and so am I! God Bless the Brooklyn Dodgers Sym-Phony!
Awesome to listen to those older folks tell their stories.
Outstanding! A+
Dear LORD! Thank you for this video and our beloved BROOKLYN DODGERS!!!
Did any other major league baseball team have such a wonderful following?😂😂
Brought tears to my eyes!
Wonderful!
Thanks for posting , there isn’t much out there when googling for the symphony Dodger band .
This was so cool. Being a long time Dodgers fan, this was music ♪ to my ears.
While in Viet Nam i was with a guy who bragged about LA.I told him the best thing that eaver happened to LA was when the Dodgers moved there..
i was born and raised on the NORTHSIDE with The Band....
Haha…poor Abe Vigoda…he just can’t shake off that Tessio persona
Yo Brooklyn!
RIP Shorty
Bring the dodgers back to Brooklyn
they are only on vacation in LA
Why not Jersey City?
MSG would build them a waterfront stadium.
Little known fact: Comedian Freddy Lewis HATED the Dodgers. xoxo The Clarences
💙 till the sphinx winks!!!
The LA Dodgers will never be the real Dodgers
