I love listening to various high school orchestras doing this, but every once and awhile you have to come to something like this to be completely blown away
This is one of the best performances of the William Tell Overture I have ever heard. I first heard this piece at about age 12 in 1958 (of course back then our only exposure to classical music was the theme song for The Lone Ranger) and was lulled to sleep during the first 11:10 min. until the finale, then all us kids knew exactly what the piece was. How exciting to hear it over and over. Thank you.
My favorite has always been the one performed by the Berlin Philharmonic in the mid 90's with Claudio Abbado. It is only the part from the 9:00 mark here on but it is awesome.
Rossini was the first great modern entertainer. He understood the ever evolving audience the way Tchaikovsky later also did. They remain the two most entertaining of the pre-20th century great masters.
Section 1: Prelude/ Dawn 3:00-6:19 Section 2: Storm 6:20-8:39 Section 3: Ranz des vaches/Call To The Cows 8:40-11:15 Section 4: March of the Swiss Soldiers/Finale 11:16-14:16
In what way is he disheveled? It's certainly not with respect to his dress. Or could it be that you're referring to his directorial approach, and your need to play the pseudo-erudite, pseudo-classical musical aficionado.
c'est .....tout simplement MAGNIFIQUE !!!sublime association entre un violoncelle et .....un toothpick!!! je me le mets "de côté" pour écouter et réecouter ancore et ancore !!!!! c'est trop beau !!
La categoria dei violoncellisti è rappresentata qui da un Grande Signore Sandro Laffranchini, dotato di qualità musicali e umane enormi. Bravo Sandro!!
Appello agli italiani: perlomeno in italiano chiamiamolo "violoncello". Cello è l'abbreviazione inglese che in italiano non significa niente, perché anche bricconcello o limoncello, per dirne un paio, abbreviati in questa maniera danno "cello"...
Yes - Gergiev famously conducts with his hands only, and is sometimes criticised for eschewing the baton. As a response, he took to conducting with the smallest possible baton, a tooth pick
In her defense the BBC Proms concerts are broadcast on TV to a very wide audience, much of which may not know much about classical music; therefore introductory comments might be helpful for such a wide audience.
Grazie Gioacchino Rossini,genio italiano,grazie di essere nato.

Cercati l’Overture diretta da Toscanini e poi saprai dirmi?
ROSSINI WAS VERY GENIUS
OMG, the trombonists must be robots!! The storm tempo is CRAZY!! 7:07
Honestly they are. Most of us hold on for dear life tho lmao, unfortunately this excerpt is a standard
Too fast.
@@hansdekorver7365 That's what makes this exceptional.
I absolutely love the William Tell Overture by Rossini!!! This is grreat!!!
Rossini was the first great modern entertainer. He understood the ever evolving audience the way Tchaikovsky later also did. They remain the two most entertaining of the pre-20th century great masters.
Definitely agree. Who would you consider their counterparts post-20th Century?
Strings were electric!
The whole orchestra - brilliant.
As exciting and precise as it gets!
rossini: another crazy visionary genius!!!
I am blown away!!!! First tranquilized by the beauty then smashed by the power!

Teşekkür ederim. İlk kez öğrendim.
Meraviglioso ! Credo che il maestro V.G. ami veramente Rossini, Verdi e i grandi compositori italiani !+++++
Oh, boy, do we/world need this for 2022... Play on, please, thank you
Direttore spettinato ma bravissimo. Orchestrali bravissimi. Cello perfetto.

Props to the trombones! That is NOT easy.
not at all
@Elias Poe why would switch instruments
Especially at such speed
Bellissimo il solo del cello. Sinceri Complimenti.
assolutamente in accordo con te
La migliore interpretazione! Grandioso il 1°Violoncello
Sandro Laffrandchini

Secondo me la migliore interpretazione di questa splendida ouverture...

A firery horse with a speed of light. A cloud of dust, and a hearty Ho Yo Silver. The Lone Ranger rides again.
Che violoncelli ! Il signor Laffranchini , semplicemente grande.
From out of the past come the thundering hoofbeats of the great horse Silver...
Per semplicità ... SUBLIME !!!
La categoria dei violoncellisti è rappresentata qui da un Grande Signore Sandro Laffranchini, dotato di qualità musicali e umane enormi.
Bravo Sandro!!
Valerie is great hope to see him New York soon.
very beautiful!
L’esplosione del minuto 7:07 è fantastica!!
I`m glad to see Dusty Springfield hosting! Great video, thanks for posting, Sandro Laffranchini!
Just beautiful!
BRAVO!!!

CoeliLux Finiremo per dire " bravo " anche al plurale😢
Ma calmati su
Excelentes y finísimas piezas clásicas, gracias.
La obertura de Tell es sencillamente impresionante.
BRAVO!
Awesome version; quickness with melody being brought out fully; usually it seems, in my opinion, often there is a trade off between these
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Complimenti.Bellissimo il solo di violoncello.
Esto es maravilloso!
Bravo Sandro!
Mr. Rossini ringrazia.....
Grande Sandro!!!
muy buena (Y)
Ladies and Gentlemen the James Brown of Conducting.
2:50 to skip the woman babbling about nothing
perfektní
11:15 is probably what you're looking for :)
The music possessed the conductor
Excellent
11:30 the chase music.
Awesome
Everyone loves the finale, but personally I find the flute/oboe (cor anglais?) duet just before even more beautiful
but the finale isn't meant to be beautiful
They play it so beautifully
Rossini era un genio assoluto.
Ascoltate la musica sacra che ha scritto, lo stabat mater prende a schiaffi anche la missa solemnis di Beethoven.
The Price is Right game Hurdles.
Para mi esta es de las mejores versiones en youtube
after Toscanini
@@antoninomarullo8468 of course
Grande Sandro!
Ma perché il flauto accentua le crome nelle note lunghe?
Well played, but I feel like I'm in a race.
A beautiful piece brilliantly conducted. Not that is matters, but what is Maestro Gergiev using to conduct? A toothpick?
Acme No 5 toothpicks, when only the best will do.
OMG, the tempo...almost as furious as the Tokyo Symphony...Why?????
is the conductor using a toothpick ?!?!
What is going on? The cameraman is seriously undercranking for nearly a whole minute starting at 7:00. ;-)
11:18 though awesome
Nabil Shaikh I use this as my phone's ringtone! #truth
Tony Bidwell good for you. For i have been searching for this song for years, finally found it.
Gergiev is holding a toothpick?? Gergiev just finished his dinner probably...
En iyisi.
Is that Higgins on the timpani?
Who is the 1st flute? Love his tone!!
Lá vem o TORNADOOO segurem se nas cadeiras kakakak 🐮🐴🐷
Mickey..
Hi yo silver away!
Is that guy conducting with a toothpick??
Saquen al de la tosferina
Small bobble for english horn player at 10:19. Otherwise, impeccable.performance.
Jesus the coughing... get a hold on yourself damn!
👏
7:23 --> "La civilisation !"
Admit it, you are mostly here just for the Swiss soldiers part.
8:39 :D:D:D
hahahahaha i see you x)
Working within Doing
Thought she would never shut up. Great tune
The intro is very long an is the conductor holding a tooth pick ???
Yes - Gergiev famously conducts with his hands only, and is sometimes criticised for eschewing the baton. As a response, he took to conducting with the smallest possible baton, a tooth pick
Why does't that woman shut up?!?
lmao
Is the concert master Rainer Küchl ?
Yes he was!
who is first cello?
That's a some tempo at the end.
Starts 2:40
Georg Solti :gee-ooh soh-tee
Será posible que siempre hay uno que tose????!!!!!😡😡😡
Virtually everyone in the comment section is a classical music "expert." Don't waste your time.
11:16
Gergiev is not a conductor, but a lackey in power!
Always someone coughing throughout...
Conducting with a toothpick, uber star
First piece could easily have been by Bruch.
11:17
11:16
2:59-14:17
Could you please cut the introduction? It's very distracting! In classical music, we don't need any intro. What counts is the music.
In her defense the BBC Proms concerts are broadcast on TV to a very wide audience, much of which may not know much about classical music; therefore introductory comments might be helpful for such a wide audience.
The music doesn't actually start till about 3:00. the beginning is just a BS speaker that likes to listen to herself.
