The Planets - VI. Uranus, the Magician - Gustav Holst Susanna Mälkki, Conductor BBC Symphony Orchestra The Proms 2015 Royal Albert Hall, London July 27, 2015
@@jrgrimm6091it might interest you that "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" may have inspired this movement, being that Gustav Holst and Paul Dukas were alive around the same time
The best part is the beginning, when everyone is forcing out all their coughs before the music begins. Little did they know, they could cough throughout this piece and nobody would hear them.
One of my favorites of that whole musical saga. I just love that playful/mysterious atmosphere. And that conductor looks like she's on fire! Freaking awesome.
Simply outstanding. Just as well as the London Symphony Orchestra. Great presence from the upper-low brass, a traditionally weak section in bands. at least, with intonation. Edit: I like the "expected" sound delay. The microphones must have been in the back of the hall.
This is the most underrated out of all of the pieces
Especially when its played with this much energy; too many interpretations take it sooo slow
@@v_munu Me too. It's supposed to be whimsical and bouncy but I hate it when it's slow
Vouch. My favorite is Jupiter but Uranus is so so underrated
yeh definetely. Everyone likes jupiter for some reason. my fav is mars but number is this.
@@saralines Jupiter is amazing, it's just REALLY overplayed.
Anyone else want this entire suite to be in a fantasia film?
Now THAT would be amazing!
It kinda reminds me of the Socerers Apprentice mickey segment, very appropriate

Terrific interpretation of this piece. The conductor is fantastic.
The conductor's playfulness and energy fits right in with the song

This melody is full of the unfathomable mysterious atmosphere that invigorates human spirit
great mustache !! 0:48
Surprisingly you're not the first one who talks about that moustache
@@me_is_hobo there’s comments about it on the video of them playing Mars 😂
LOL
3:27 SLAPS SOO GOOD
I’d pay good money to rock the timpani in this piece.
True so I tried playing this in a Timpani but I can't cuz I can't go that fast
4:57 I couldn’t stop listening to the Bass Trombone explosion.
I'm having a bassoon swoon watching this.
A basswoon
This is so underrated what the heck
It is!!
I don't care what you say, the euphonium is perfect for playing The Planets!❤

That conducting is pure ballet!

Not the low brass farting at 4:57 😂
This was used a few years ago as the bumper music for a UFO documentary about Roswell and other UFO sightings. Came out in the mid 90's.
1:50 goosebumps every time. incredible
Omg same
An incredibly rich piece of music, very well played.
The planets is a great lullaby of the universe
OMG. Who's that conductor? That's what Id like! She got the magic 🎩! What's her name! Who is that?! That was awesome!!!!
Susanna Mälkki
@@dolphinbanana3053 I know🤭😁. I just wanted people to see her name again. She has a very nice commanding presence and technique
Yes!!!❤❤❤
For some reason, I associate this movement specifically with WW1.
Probably because this piece was made just before WWI
Great pace. Love it
Am I the only one that imagines a bunch of wind turbines spinning a round while listening to this?
(Like or Reply if you do please)
I imagine an increasingly complicated Rube Goldberg machine
I imagine clay golems forming out of the earth and playing wind instruments.
If you dislike this then how do you understand music? Btw this is really cool piece especially for tuba
LOVE THIS
My Personal Favorite!
1:25 is the good part!
It sure is!
as a bass trombone player my favorite part is EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE (4:57)
0:37 the quarter notes that the strings release on is so smooth and sharp!
PERCU-POWER!!! 🥁💥⚡️
I have never seen an English horn bocal like that, also any piece with contrabassoon is goated
its a bass oboe you are most likely talking about
Everyone has so much expression!
3:25 is my favourite part
One of my favourite song at this suite
Does anyone remember the „Elephants parade“ of the original „Dumbo“ movie? This masterpiece reminds me at this scene in the movie…
3:55 insane
Very excentric
Женщина-дирижёр - супер! 👍

But you know what isn't? Your profile pic
@@me_is_hobo
What is wrong with it?
2:16 timpani
2:22 is easily the best part
2:58 percussion scares players
Interesting to note that not one instrumentalist at any point in the performance looks at the conductor. She’s a passenger.

hola para los de clase de sexto
I love the piece, but the title is vulgar
