Tremendous! A fantastic rendition of one of the best Broadway musical overtures ever!

[@bigfella1998]

Bravo! Outstanding job! My uncle, Dick Perry, played first trumpet in the original Broadway production of Gypsy and Funny Girl. He would have loved to hear your terrific rendtion! And on Zoom!

[@georgetrahanis]

The BEST overture ever! So beautifully played by these gifted musicians!!

[@NomadicBrian]

Bravo! 👏Absolutely loved this and would love to see more. Young talent and old Broadway meet and it's just wonderful.

[@christinarood4296]

Made me cry--these precious young people warmed my heart--can't beat Jule Styne's music! You're the best!! Thanks so much!

[@annerood2703]

That is my 95-year-old mother responding above. I knew she would love it! Thank you. She called me right after she listened to it -- she was still crying. Best overture ever.

@@annerood2703 Patti Lupone brought me here. She told andy Cohen gypsy is one of her favorite overtures ever. I love Gypsy funny girl and my fair lady the best.

Hello to all involved in this. I've just had a kind of a bad, sad day, and when I came across this, it made me feel so much better. It's a great overture, and your interpretation of it is spot on. It brought tears to my eyes. Such amazing talent, every single one of you. Thank you so much. Hard to believe you could do this remotely. So impressed.

[@illwilldeezy]

This is so beautiful!!! Gypsy is my all time favorite musical. RIH Stephen Sondheim & Julie Styne.❤️

[@rexlex1736]

I'm surprised there are not hundreds of positive comments about this beautiful performance!

[@bradwatson1048]

The very greatest of overtures, and you did it proud, folks. Thank you. I needed that.

[@rachaelgoldman5846]

That was great!! The Gypsy overture is significant in musical history because it brought burlesque musical front and center into the overture. Again, a fantastic performance!

[@ronaldwilliams1698]

The greatest musical overture. Great performance. Makes my spine tingle.

[@Parp121]

Superb! Loved watching the harp player!

[@jimjimjimjimjim]

Especially great job by the harpist!

[@ewindels]

AWESOME.
Please identify your harpist and percussionist, because I so want to have drinks with them.

[@vickigordon904]

My gratitude!
Best overture by best musicians!

[@rexlex1736]

Absolutely breathtaking!

[@dondouglass8665]

Oh my goodness! Tear up every time I hear this. Such unity, masters, - one and all.
I remember when the show came out, and a friend got one of the first ‘LP’s’ available. Listened to the overture again and again. Entire show a true smash hit. So happy this video is now out for all to enjoy.
❤️”Mr. Goldstone, We Love you.” ❤️. Thank You for making people happy.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this... I know it has been a minute since this has been posted, but it has absolutely made my day seeing it just now. There is a magic seeing live theatre and feeling the power of live music... but this is just a wonderful as we get to see the magic behind the sounds! I know there is an acknowledgment at the end of the show in regards to the pit orchestra, but we rarely get to see anyone performing. Kudos to a phenomenal job!!!

[@user-ep8ri5di9r]

I can't believe that this is the actual remote performance!

[@fakerating]

Lovely!!! thank you to ALL of you for this...

[@bigmouth33]

Fantastic is right.!!!!

[@MartyNemko1]

OMG! My favorite overture, well-performed. And each player's tone, feel, and pitch are great! And so perfectly mic'd and mixed! I speak as a professional pianist. And how in the world did all those players in remote locations without a conductor, with all those tempo changes, remain in sync?! And the video really adds! Thank you, thank you, thank you! P.S. Lest I appear to be just a giddy fan boy, I do wish the beginning and the end: 4:56 to 5:13 would have been faster, per the original: th-cam.com/video/kYS1G9ZLOio/w-d-xo.html

[@jerrietaylor9535]

(Almost made me cry, too!)

[@TonyArmitstead]

Fantastic. I was due to play this before lock down. Did the dress then it was all cancelled 😔 What a pleasure it was to listen to this wonderful version. Well done!

[@georgesmith2199]

[@michaeltekulsky5665]
