The 'wah wah' lady is Tuva Semmingsen, a very distinguished opera singer in her own right.
Her whistle is brilliant 😊
And she have pistol earings in
Didn’t notice that!
That’s awesome! She’s great!
Tuva is the best norwegian opera singer of all times in my opinion. She is so ambigious in many different music styles and that's her superpower.
This fits the movie so well. Morricone was a genius.
There’s a lot more to the wah wah lady than you think.
It’s not a sax, it’s a cor anglais from the oboe family.
Oh trust me, we know there’s much more to the wah wah lady than what we saw here. 🙂
Wah wah it is produced by the singer's voice and a harmonica (you can see at 3.34) that mix together. Morricone was truly brilliant.
@@david-xr4oj Truly Brilliant since he had a very small and limited budget for this piece...(check it out sometime) and created this Masterpiece of music. That's talent.
So, if that particular video has gone viral, the poor woman may forever be known as the wah wah lady?
@@josephpublico2337 She gets a kick out of being called wah wah lady so don't feel sorry for her.
When this was first shown to Tuva Semmingsen and Christine Andersen, they were told it just went viral at 2 million, and by the time they looked at it, the numbers jumped to 8 million, and now it is one of the most played videos on TH-cam.
The second song is Ecstacy of Gold, which Metallica plays for every opening of every concert.
That is so cool!!
The DR Konserthuset in Copenhagen is one of finest acoustical tuned concert facilities in the world plus the Danish National Symphony Orchestra and Choir were voted the best worldwide in 2023. Have attended their concerts there many times.
DNSO played Whiter shade of pale, with Procul Harem in an outdoors concert, very cool too.
This Orchestra is my favourite Orchestra they are diverse and just have music in their veins, they were brilliant in the live performance of Procal Harems lighter shade of pale, the Danish National Orchestra is top notch,
if you never seen Sergio Leone Western with these emotional soundtracks you MUST!
The Danish National Symphony Orchestra is amazing. It's cool that you reacted to them! 🙂
They were really awesome, actually.”! Glad they were recommended. It’s been a lot of fun discovering so many new artists. A lot of those coming from you!
@@Killermcknight It's always good to broaden your musical horizons. I think it's important for a reaction channel to constantly discover new artists. Of course, it's impossible to keep up with all artists on a regular basis, but you might find a few gems that you continue to follow. After you've reacted to Zhou Shen I'd like to recommend another Chinese singer/musician: Hua Chenyu. A good start would be his cover/rearrangement of the song Nunchucks: th-cam.com/video/lLs-0A0yEuA/w-d-xo.html (the channel owner added English subs). He is extremley versatile and sings many genres. You can never know what to expect from his next song. I think you need at least three very different performances from him to see if you like him or not.
Bear in mind when the original score was recorded there was not a lot of money for such things so it was cobbled together with just a few instruments. In my opinion The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the pinnacle of Westerns and concludes a fabulous trilogy - Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars more and then this...excellent
Procol Harum did their "Whiter Shade of Pale" with The Danish National Symphony Orchestra live in 2006, too.
they got so many good songs, can't go wrong really.
Tuva has the most soothing voice ever imho (once upon in the west).
Maestro Ennio Morricone, genius!
This may have already been answered, but the solo instrument at the beginning of the second movement is an English horn, which is a lot like an oboe but pitched lower.
That was one of my favorite movies. Good the bad and the ugly.
Great reaction and love the fact that you picked that mic out!! This is a well done peice all around 👍BTW that strange thing he's playing is an Oboe, member of the reed family of instruments, cousin to the clarinet.
Thank you for sharing
Muse
Fun facts. 😊 That concert hall cost 1.4 billion Danish kroner, (20,043,139 US$), which exceeded the budget by 250%. 😂 It is built specifically for radio and TV recordings, it is literally one big sound studio. Even the fabric on the chairs has the same resonance as a human, so if there are empty seats (which there never are) you won't be able to hear it. The horn was a English horn a instrument in the oboe family.
Everything Danes build go over budget and over time, just wait and see with that tunnel to Germany, though i am told the bridge to Sweden was not such a case.
Also the concert hall was donated by Maersk if my goo serve me right, but they would probably gladly have used tax payer money to build it just like to pay the musicians here
@@pliashmuldba Maersk's gifts are a huge tax scam, all Danes are going to pay for Maersk's 'gifts'. When Maersk 'donated' the Opera House in Copenhagen's harbour, Maersk got a bigger tax deduction than the Opera House cost to build. 😂
@@Alhem11 Yeah they are looking out for #1 in any way they can.
And Danes are getting screwed over, though there are of course much worse cases of that like Russia and North Korea.
But that is of course not countries Danes should compare to.
I have not voted for a few decades now, but i am active working to bring new parties forth that is a little sane, i would vote for CUZ i am a big fan of democracy.
I have worked under DIS ( Danish International Ship register )
A thing Maersk set up in the late 80ties with his minions, and that too was absolutely not a + for Denmark or Danish sailors, and a few years later many of us sailors was also fired.
So today Danish ship's sail around with Danish flags on them, but you be hard pressed to find a Dane working on those ships.
@pliashmuldba Honestly, it's not just "everything Danes build". It's the curse of mandatory licitations, where the cheapest bidder often wins. It's not a Danish thing, you will find it everywhere.
20 million USD is not 1.4 billion DKK. Its more like 215 million USD
The guy hanging from the ceiling showed up late for rehearsal
😂 awful
yeah i know right, the guy slapping the boards together replaced him
Good job guys, I enjoyed this. You gave insights without interrupting
too much. Thumbs up.
The "bird's nest" is actually an Italian instrument called Ocarina made from terracotta.
I think the harmonica guy you mentioned was part of the "wawaaaaa"-sound that the lady did. Great to see you enjoyed the performance!
harmonica (just below her) and voice was synched so it seemed all came from the lady.
Ohh interesting! Thanks so much!
I don't know why Ennio Morricone did it, what nerve in my mind or body he strikes, but I admit - I cry ugly to The Ecstasy of Gold every time.
It's just so incredibly beautiful.
Hanging is an important theme in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
Still yet to see anyone talk over the start of Ecstasy Of Gold. Everyone has been in awe.
That oboe solo is so beautiful if almost defies belief.
My favorite soundtrack of all time Ennio Morricone was a genius. The instrument at the beginning of The Ecstasy of Gold was an oboe.
famous soundtrack by Maestro and composer Ennio Morricone, from the western films of international director Sergio Leone. 🌺
Heard this many times on youtube , its the best thing ive heard on youtube
Ennio Morricone italian genius compositor 🇮🇹👍
And did you notice Tuva Semmingsen's earrings were Colt revolvers?
What! No!
@@Killermcknight Just one. The other was a feather.
And Christine Andersen was wearing a black and gold dress during "The Ecstasy of the Gold".
This was Christine's first performance with the Orchestra... she was the blond soprano. Tuva was the "wah wah/whistling" lady and a marvelous singer herself.
As another Dane, this Danish Concert has been watched till now, 148.000.000 times!!!
It's a pretty amazing rendition of the song
This video is a great example how an orchestral music is made. A note by note by the composer (in this case Ennio Morricone; a genius) and the Danish Symphony Orchestra absolutely are showing us how every and each musical instruments along with the vocals are muxed together in a grand song. This video is a learning experience.
I've had the movie on TV probably a dozen times. My wife always gets on my back when I have it on again until I tell her I'm not watching the movie, I'm listening to the soundtrack.
This is the exact musical score written for the movie, played exactly the same
It was a SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA, not a fake. I recommend YOU TWO to visit a Concert of a Symphony Orchestra LIVE and enjoy this!
Like all symphony orchestras they do regular classical concerts to a high standard. What makes them stand out is that they also do these type of concerts dedicated to music used on movies, musicals, tv shows and videogames. The wah wah lady features in several of those concerts which I have seen pretty much all of them because they are also released on Bluray. The one that is still missing is the Vikings concert. Plenty of official videos provided by the orchestra but the one you definitely should check out is Who Wants To Live Forever (from Highlander) and sung by our “wah wah” lady.
That’s so cool!
I had a collegue who went to watch them pretty much every time they set up a new piece. Back then I hadn't seen this and I didn't believe what he said about how good they were. Now I'm so envious... I really should travel down there and watch them live some day.
I remember this track on the 'Spagetti Western' in the 1960s.
Waa Waa lady has a great voice and is a stunning soprano or metz soprano. She has performed with the Danish N S O before
El dia en que yo muera espero que todavia no quiero esta musica que lo reciban a uno en el cielo con esta melodia hermosa no ay palabras para expresar como tocan los intrumentos los coros las voces dios que hermosura de musica pa mis oidos👏👏👏👏🤡👏🤡👏🤡🤪🤪🤪👻🤪👻🤪👻👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😜😜😜✌️✌️✌️😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁👏👏
Not to rain on the Waa Waa ladies parade... she is a very talented vocalist. But the waa waa sound is actually supplemented by a harmonica to give it that unusual vibrato. You can see and hear it at 3:34.
The boom mics they use are for CERTAIN Shure SM58... It's the Danish Royal Symphony.. They don't skimp on equipment.
The birdhouse is an Orcarina. Originated from Central America and the Andes, played for over 4500 years until European colonization. Made of clay terracotta. Now professionally played in china, japan and korea.
WE are very proud of our DNSC, they are insanely talented and you really should take a deeper look into them on their channel, you'll find ALOT of movie scores and Videogame performances.. i mean ALOT...
It's an "English Horn", the sad-sounding instrument with the tube, and the larger brother of an Oboe! And the "Duck Call" is an Okarina. The "Wha Wha" Lady is a famous Norwegian, and one of the best Mezzosopranos in the world, and she still gets Fanmail from this Concert.
Awesome video guys! Look forward to the next one.
Thanks so much!
Hi guys I enjoyed this but I think you should check out the spaghetti western orchestra playing at the royal Albert hall in London that will blow you mind completely
EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Hi guys! You need to watch 'Once Upon A Time In The West' from the same concert! You will see more strange instruments. and hear much more from the harmonica and the 'Wah-Wah' lady (Tuva Semmingsen)..! 🥰 The DNSO cover all genres - their Star Trek suite is amazing too!
Another amazing one you wouldn't want to miss is *FMF 2015: International TV Series Gala: Vikings suite, Trevor Morris, Einar Selvik* New subscriber
You should listen to their National girls choir as well. You would be surprised at the level of excellence. Try the DR Pigekoret sing Magnum Mysterium(Lauridsen), Blackbird, River(Joni Mitchell) or Come Out and Play. They are all excellent. Or listen to the slightly younger choir DR Juniorkoret sing White Water Hymnal. The choirs really deserve to be better known as they are phenomenal
I heard somebody say that Morricone used birdsong for some of the sounds.
It is not true, but he was definitely trying to capture the sounds of Nature in the Wild West.
In the film the guy hanging would keep on being saved by Clint Eastwood and then Clint would claim the bounty.
It's an English horn, one of the three double reed instruments found in an orchestra.
Ironically, in Britain it’s called a Cor Anglais!
It’s actually an Oboe d'amore. Different instrument.
This Same Concert Played A Fistful of Dollars, A Few Dollars More & Once upon a Time in the West. All separate vids for those. They are just as good.
GRANDE MAESTRO MORRICONE !!! Tutte le sue colonne sonore sono adorate da noi italiani !!
If you know the movie, you can't hear this music without thinking about scenes in the movie. The greatest Western of all time, and it definitely wouldn't be the same without Ennio Morricone's soundtrack 👍
From a fellow audio nerd, enjoyed your Sennheiser aside. If I'm the marketing manager, I'm sending you a dozen.
The good the bad and the ugly is one of Clint Eastwood best movies, the movie is about hang someone
From the same concert, "Once Upon a Time in the West", Tuva (wah-wah singer) sings the lead in this one.
The Ecstasy of Gold is often used to open Metallica concerts
I think you might like listening to Hazel O'Connor-Will you. It's an 80's song but lots of people still enjoy it. It's a poignant soulful song, but the sax solo is one of the best that you'll hear. If you do listen to it, don't be fooled if it appears to end when the music first winds down. There's more.
Classical music orchestras and choruses don't use boom mikes! Symphony halls are acoustically designed so microphones are not necessary. (Though you might have seen recording mikes since this concert was being recorded.)
Sure I understand the concept of a music hall and how acoustics work in the design of those halls. I didn't think they were using them for the audience in attendance but they were suspended above the choir for recording like you mentioned. It's the only way we'd be able to hear the concert with great clarity on the internet.
@@Killermcknight Absolutely! Here is a commentary about how Frank Gehry (a fellow Canadian) designed the Disney Hall in Los Angeles:
th-cam.com/video/CCZ6KWyNyUw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=GB4RvFLwjrpTO8Sg
Epic 😊
They invited John Fogarty of CCR fame to europe in 2010 to "Night of the Proms" where a full symphony orchestra from Belgium/Netherlands backed him while he sang and played the song " Put a candle in the window " they do it with many famous artists each year and it's really worth a listen if you love music, one of those give you chills moments, Regards, Mark from Australia
The instrument in question is an oboe.
Excelente!
Now listen to the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain's version of this. Incredibly talented musicians who don't take themselves too seriously.
Now that sounds like fun!
Their cover of Gravity is beautiful.
There are lost tribes in the darkest jungle who would be able to whistle this music.
I like Tuva Semmingsen's gun earings 👍 the wa wa lady 🤘
It’s an english horn. It’s one and a half time bigger than a normal oboe. So to say an alto oboe.
That's correct. But describing English horn with comparison to Oboe does not help if the person asking the question does not know what is an Oboe...
Nope, it’s actually called an Oboe d'amore, which is similar to the English Horn
Hi guys, I really enjoy hearing your reactions to some of the 'old' stuff. If I could make a suggestion, please check out a video of a singer named John Farnham. He's considered a national treasure dpwn here in Australia where he is known simply as 'The Voice". In 1989 I was at a concert that he did with the Merlbourne Symphony Orchestra which I still remember to this very day. Look for the clip John Farnham and Melbourne Symphony Orchestra - You're the Voice. as well as his version of the Beatles classic "Help". Incidentally, when Frteddy Mercury passed, John was the first person they approached to front 'Queen'. He declined because it would mean leaving his family in Australia. Will be very interested to hear what you think. Cheers
The double reed instrument was an English horn, sometimes called cor d'Anglais. It is distinguish for being neither a horn nor English. It is part of the oboe family.
The instrument you wanted to to know what it was, is called "cor anglais" they run about $6000.00
😱😱
Nope it’s actually an Oboe d'amore
Treat yourself to arguably the best westerns ever made......indeed one of the best films ever made.
Watch The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
Fistful of Dollars, then A Few Dollars More, then Good, Bad, and the Ugly....
@@farmhome904 YES!!! All great "spaghetti" westerns....love them all. Can call them Spaghetti Westerns if you want...simply great films on a budget.
And also 'Once Upon a Time in the West'..one of the few times Henry Fonda played the bad guy in the movies.
That "mystery instrument" was an oboe.
No it was not. You need only to read TWO comments to find out what it actually is.
This is only part of the concert, you can find the rest of the concert on TH-cam
Wind solo is an oboe. 🙂
The whole album is excellent
4:11 Some (like me) will say it is one of the Oboe family of instruments but I'm no expert. Others will insist it's from the English Horn family of instruments. To me, both families look physically the same so you could probably flip a coin and be right. The instrument is straight with a flared opening like a clarinet, but the reed is much narrower than a saxophone or clarinet reed.
9:15 The "bird whistle" is an ocarina. If you ever played "The Legend of Zelda and the Ocarina of Time", that's what one really looks and sounds like.
The English Horn is an Oboe family instrument. This however is way too large to be an Oboe and because of that, this IS an English Horn. The telltale sign is the bent reed pipe.
@@eidodk So the only difference between a regular Oboe and an English Horn is: the Horn had its reed pipe damaged in shipping? 😁 j/k
If true I'll have to remember that. I can see the advantage to the bend in the reed pipe when it comes to extended playing.
@@Fadamor No - it's just the fastest way to identify it. An english horn is quite alot larger than a regular oboe, identifying it by the bent reed pipe is therefore the easiest. The pipe is bent because an English Horn is too large for the performer to reach all notes without the bend.
You can press "space" to pause, too.
I believe that the horn in the middle of the episode is an english horn. similar to an oboe.
These westerns are their own sub-genre. They are "Spaghetti Westerns," called so, because they were filmed in Italy, for far less money than in Hollywood. "On the Cheap" with a cast of international actors, and very bad voice dubbing - most of the actors spoke their lines in their native language. Spaghetti Westerns were an essential part of my childhood in the 1960s. Double feature on a Saturday afternoon. 50¢ admission and 50¢ for snacks. All snacks were 5¢ and 10¢, so, if you chose wisely, you could load up. A couple cartoons, a short (Laurel & Hardy, or The Three Stooges), and two movies. Gave our mothers a much needed break on Saturday afternoons. And this was EVERY Saturday. First thing you did was eat the popcorn, then collapse the box and sail it towards the screen, like a frisbee (before there were frisbees) when the cartoons began. Those movie employees hated us! 🤣😈🤣 I'm so lucky to have been a kid in the late 1950s/1960s.😀😀
Actually was filmed in Spain
@kimmoantinaho3834 True. Interesting how locations bounced around Europe. Whatever fit the budget.
The solo instrument is an English horn -- kind of like an oboe, a double-reed wind instrument, but with a curved mouthpiece.
Oboe d'amore actually
This is a 6 year old video that you react to. Every time someone reacts to it, they find it "funny" how Tuva Semmingsen is the "wah-wah lady". Tuva Semmingsen has sung opera since 1999, she's one of europes best mezzo-sopranos. Reducing her to the "wah-wah lady" is insulting, however Tuva herself has embraced that name fully, not because it's what she wants to be known for, but because that performance and rendition of The Good, the bad and the ugly in specific is/was iconic.
Reacting to movie music without knowing the movie is somewhat crazy.
Psst....that's an English horn @3:57. Edit: the high notes @6:52 sound like a piccolo trumpet to my old ears. If not, I'm sure someone will correct me, lol.
Lost in all my nit-picking: this was a very respectable, really good reaction video!
😆 thank you so much
Nope it’s an Oboe d'amore
You can use the space bar to pause as well
You know the music is doing its job when you are filled with so much joy that it leaks out as feelings of love or happy tears or as simple as laughter .
There's no point watching this if you haven't seen the films first :)
Why not? We can enjoy music and seeing their performance without seeing the movie, no?
This was recorded at a Ennio Morricone theme concert in Copenhagen. You might react to another piece from the same concert - once upon a time in the west ...
Ennio Moricone is a gem
the solo instrument was an oboe
One of the best Clint movie.
Only to clarify the conductor is not there for show and her (in this case) big contribution comes before the performance the conductor decides how to play the piece and gives the orchestra instructions during the rehearsals I don't know if in this case since it's not a classical piece she made little changes to the arrangment maybe not.
4:10 No, that's an English horn, part of the oboe family, not a saxophone.
the instrument you thought was a saxophone is actually an ''Oboe''.
*You should listen to the remastered Original Soundtrack of Ennio Morricone and you will hear that he composed it like that...* ⬅️🎸🎶💿🔊🔥😈🔥
When idiots say, "There's no such thing as real magic." i play this for them. Even the editing is magnificent.
THIS HEARD IN THE MOVIE 'THE GOOD, THE BAD, & THE UGLY' STARRING CLINT EASTWOOD
i'm gonna give you a like just because you NOTICE that man hanging (none of other reations noticed him) ... there is to mutch to explain about the significance, but watch the movie "the good the bad and the ugly" and you will understand .... that is Tuco, my absolute favourite croocked person.
Listen to Tuva in Highlander.
