My grandfather musician told me "you always recognise a piece from Rossini, he's always in a hurry because he has to go stir the tomato sauce". Rossini was an extremely enthusiastic chef, in addition to a great composer.
I've probably watched this 100+ times and love it every time. Between the conductor's actions, the gray bearded cello player and the first violin the enjoyment they are all having with this wonderful piece makes it just a special video. Thanks to all of them for their performance.
One thing that stands out when watching it is that the conductor has no music in front of him and no one in the symphony is looking at the conductor but they are all in sync.
I, too, loved this performance, and especially noted the passion of the lead violinist (on the right hand of the conductor). She almost bounces out of her seat when the beat picks up. Impressive...I love PASSIION IN MUSIC and IN IT'S PERFORMERS!!
Yes, this is a truly fantastic rendition, but for contrast I welcome you to listen to the Grimley brass band rendition from the movie "Brassed Off" ( th-cam.com/video/X2Wbshh6hUo/w-d-xo.html). Pay particular attention to the cornet solo. I love "William Tell' no matter who plays it.
+Mark Younger Yes I loved the standing up bit too, in fact I loved all of it from start to finish. Brilliant musicians but I supposed you have to be to play in that orchestra. Absolutely superb!!
@@19franken95 and he was writing same thing patriotic. This composition was written to incite the Italian to rebel against the stranger occupying forces in Italy. So he used the music to give them the rebelius spirit needed to fight the other soldiers . at the time Rossini was a papalino meaning a citizen of the pontefic state. Supported by the French the Austrian and held Europe. Is fast pace is due to excite the spirit of the rebels against everybody. Viva Rossini e Verdi.
This conductor is the ultimate best. Doesn't require sheet music. Knows exactly what section plays what and when. I watch this video at least once a day.👍👍
Leonard Bernstein and Von Karajan can conduct symphonies without looking at texts as well. I’m pretty sure any decent conductor knows a symphony or two by heart.
Il suono è stupendo, il gesto magnifico, il ritmo ed il piglio è assolutamente perfetto... vive questa musica come un altro genio italiano... Toscanini !!!
Almost forgot...that flourish at the end, with the orchestra standing! That's more than just good musicianship. That's showmanship! Totally delightful! This is the kind of visual and aural gem you want to watch and experience over and over again.
I could listen every day for remainder of my life and never tire of it. It's thrilling to hear and to know such talent exists not just in the composition but the musicians of course as well.
As a kid in the 50's, I saat in front of our radio and listened to this music almost every day. This rendition puts the radio to shame. It's powerful, heart stimulating and very well done. I too listen or watch this at least once a week to get my energy level up.
I love how the conductor has complete control of the orchestra. His movements, eye contact and attention to detail is superb. The ending is so powerful as the entire orchestra stands up. This is how such a great piece should be performed, with a powerful orchestra and conductor. Bravo!
Quel loro alzarsi in piedi nelle ultime battute è semplicemente fantastico! Equivale ad una standing ovation nei confronti dell'immenso Rossini! Il popolo giapponese è un popolo meraviglioso!
È un brano vivace e coinvolgente, questo spiega l'atteggiamento dei musicisti, e sicuramente il direttore d'orchestra ha una personalità che spicca molto. Fa piacere guardare e ascoltare questo video.
These are the best vibrations that a team produces! In the highest perfection and with a quality that would certainly have moved the composer to tears! I thank this grandiose man, gifted beyond measure and capable of divine precision! In particular, the unique incomparable Jedi Knight of Music! Thank you Mr. Myung-Whun Chung - the master of conductors! A German country bumpkin.
Nel preciso momento che la musica non è ancora terminata ed iniziano gli applausi si compie la magia. Quello è l'istante esatto che tutti i presenti diventano Italiani.
A Korean conductor leading a Japanese Philharmonic playing a song written by an Italian composer. This is how the world should be. Music unites all :)
Correct
Japanese and south Koreans are close ..pity they didn't have good composers there !
agreed enjoyed by all
What does nationality have to do with classical music?
@@armelburgess8651 A lot !!
Cant stop watching this .. jus the teaching of the body language ❤........2024???????????????
Good music knows no borders. Music the peace, we all need to find.
This music will always be known to me as the theme song of "The Lone Ranger" which was one of my childhood heroes. Go in peace.
My grandfather musician told me "you always recognise a piece from Rossini, he's always in a hurry because he has to go stir the tomato sauce". Rossini was an extremely enthusiastic chef, in addition to a great composer.
Well said!
Love this......
i really love this comment
...which Is about a Swiss national hero
thank you for the information 😍😍
Thats the most chill conductor I have ever seen
The Force is strong with him
He is on fire.
1 tiny flick from him
Everyone: Yes
He's definitely the Whun in charge.
Japan style he is very strict

This video should be taken down. There is not enough racial diversity in the orchestra. 😩

@@dalebrown322I noticed that but I also noticed not many of the orchestra were watching him. Much less pretentious than English conductors
@@JustForFun-mt9og9 in uinin😊
何度も見てます。本当に素敵！
かっこよすぎる！
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
At 80 yrs old it's a pleasure to say that this is the best ever. To Mr Chung and the Tokyo Philharmonic --- Thank you.
If I played this in my car, I'd lose my license.
104thDIVTimberwolf or even ur life
Lolol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
oh most surely.
Honestly, I played this in my car on my way to work.... heck, I am an hour early.
One of my absolute favourite conductors. He deeply cares about the music and really brings its power out
Absolutely one of the best and most enthusiastic renditions I have ever heard! Bravo!
One of the best music ever. Glory to Rossini.
Mamma mia!!!!!!! Fantastica interpretazione di uno dei più grandi compositori italiani
素晴らしい、ほんとに素晴らしい、演奏者の皆さんの笑顔が、すべてを物語っていますね、ブラ-ーボー！！
This is by far and away my favorite rendition of this piece. The speed and power is very visceral yet refined - it's absolutely magnificent.
Yes, this is a truly fantastic rendition, but for contrast I welcome you to listen to the Grimley brass band rendition from the movie "Brassed Off" ( th-cam.com/video/X2Wbshh6hUo/w-d-xo.html). Pay particular attention to the cornet solo. I love "William Tell' no matter who plays it.
Yep , BRAVO !
You are absolutely right! I think the same thing!
FANTASTIC!!! Rossini would be proud!!!
The musicians have a smile on their face when performing such an infectious piece of music. Wonderful orchestra, wonderful conductor.
I can listen to this piece a gazillion times and the hair on the back of my neck stands up every time! Bravo !!! Magnificent!!
As a trombonist, I would have loved the opportunity to be directed by this man. His animation and motions are marvelous.
Fastest version I've heard. I love the standing at the end and the instruments up in the bleachers.
+Mark Younger Yes I loved the standing up bit too, in fact I loved all of it from start to finish. Brilliant musicians but I supposed you have to be to play in that orchestra. Absolutely superb!!
The best of the best
Not that easy to stand up with your cello. lol
Too fast for my taste
Mark Younger i know they did a good job
One of the best renditions of William Tell I've ever heard!! Awesome, fabulous!!
I love how they all stand up at the end, even the cellos
That is a nice touch that I have NEVER seen an entire orchestra do...one section or several, but never everyone...!
What an amazing conduction!!
One person sat down and wrote every note for every instrument in his head and came up with this.
right, but it happened to be G. Rossini, that's why...
It's not hard at all, but it is time consuming

...and then there's someone who goes "first!" ;)
This is what one person can do without the internet as a distraction.
Precision, speed, musicality, and pure joy. I cannot stop listening to this. My family thinks I'm a little crazy.
Semplicemente meravigliosi! Anche Rossini apprezzerebbe. Un abbraccio dall'Italia ❤️🇮🇹
Perfettamente d' accordo. Un abbraccio dal Brasile.
e uno dal Paraguay@@salvatoreluigi4799
Un grande omaggio al formidabile compositore Gioacchino Rossino, perla preziosissima della Musica classica italiana
This conductor is the ultimate best. Doesn't require sheet music. Knows exactly what section plays what and when. I watch this video at least once a day.👍👍
Linda, I do the same as you - I watch it once a week just to see the incredible performance of this conductor
@@eduardoalencardeazambuja889 Then you should see him conduct Mahler ninth wihout the scores
Leonard Bernstein and Von Karajan can conduct symphonies without looking at texts as well. I’m pretty sure any decent conductor knows a symphony or two by heart.
@@jerou well,, Bernstein OK, but Karajan prefer to read instade the "spartito" the money cash...
I was introduced to this at age 7 and haven't tired of it for 70 years!
Il suono è stupendo, il gesto magnifico, il ritmo ed il piglio è assolutamente perfetto... vive questa musica come un altro genio italiano... Toscanini !!!
When they Stood Up, I became Overwhelmed, Totally Overwhelmed. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
I really liked that part too.
Assolutamente meravigliosi! 💖💖💖
This used to be my morning alarm. Had to be out the door before last note fades.
My one year old boy loves this performance and he swings his arms with the music. He is in daycare now, I miss him so much, I can't work
What a great rendition and the conductor well ,The best I have ever seen. FIRST CLASS BY ANY STANDARDS.
東京交響楽団がこの指揮者の指揮で素晴らしいウィリアムテルを聞かせてくれた。オーケストラの人達も楽しそうに演奏していて、こういうパフォーマンスを日本のオーケストラがしてくれる事が日本人として嬉しい。
My 8 month old granddaughter is mesmerized by this performance, which I play for her often! Magical!
I never get enough. Magic Rossini ❤️🇮🇹
Just watch his subtle hand motions, his fingers and hands are directing the 90 piece orchestra. Amazing just to watch him conduct.
Absolutely agree.
And he is polite. Awesome.
90 piece orchestra, 80 violins 😀
I just love watching this guy...he's fantastic.
Myeong Hun Jeong is legendary conductor
With good reason, obviously.
Excellent performance. Well done, Tokyo Philharmonic and Myung-Whun Chung.
No. It' s too fast
je ne connaissais pas ce chef ,maintenant ...... JE CONNAIS !!!! MAGNIFIQUE !!!!
@DARIUS LOYD yes
@@ivanbombana7282 the song is played at that tempo.. you are aware of that right?
Яфд7
Japanese orchestra, Korean conductor, Italian composer...and in harmony, they all ROCK. Bravo, Bravo!
Almost forgot...that flourish at the end, with the orchestra standing! That's more than just good musicianship. That's showmanship! Totally delightful! This is the kind of visual and aural gem you want to watch and experience over and over again.
Even the cellists kept playing while standing. Nice.
BINGO!!! When they stood?!? Just blew me away!!!❤❤❤👏👏👏
I could listen every day for remainder of my life and never tire of it. It's thrilling to hear and to know such talent exists not just in the composition but the musicians of course as well.
Enchanting!
Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra is just out of this world - listen to that full sound! Wow!
You are absolutely right ....!

Quel loro alzarsi in piedi nelle ultime battute è semplicemente fantastico! Equivale ad una standing ovation nei confronti dell'immenso Rossini! Il popolo giapponese è un popolo meraviglioso!
They're people. Good & bad, like everywhere else.
This is an excellent version. I love the way these musicians move while they play.
So beautifully performed very moving
Incredible. This is what it is all about. The international sound of music.
Myung-Whun Chung for me one of the best maestros!
I can't stop viewing this video... Simply awesome... Excellent level of musicians
Love this my favorite ❤
Oh my God I love this conductor!! And the orchestra is truly amazing!! Such a fun piece…BRAVO!!!
Love this conductor,I'm fascinated watching him.
テンポ、スピード、強弱、素晴らしい指揮。
What a great orchestra and conductor too.
Love how they all stood up! Exceptional performance! ❤️🏆
最後のパフォーマンスが素晴らしいし、オーケストラの皆様も笑顔で、指揮者の人柄に惹かれます。
È un brano vivace e coinvolgente, questo spiega l'atteggiamento dei musicisti, e sicuramente il direttore d'orchestra ha una personalità che spicca molto. Fa piacere guardare e ascoltare questo video.
Love the tempo. The musicians look like they are enjoying it. Brilliant.
I played this in junoir high school when I was 14...one of my best performances...i always get emotional when I listen to it because I know I did that
Best version of the finale ever played by any orchestra. Period.
And the conductor walks off afterwards so casually. The ultimate mic drop.
love conductor Chung's style of conducting. One of the best performances of William Tell Finale I've heard. Bravo!!
정말 멋지네요 특히 이곡을 하는 중에 단원들의 표정과 끝낸 후 뿌듯한 미소는 정말 인상적입니다.
Absolutely delightful and I love the expressions on the musicians' faces & the conductor!! Bravo!!!
never heard something so perfect. They're impeccable.
More than sixty years, and I still never get tired of hearing that piece.
Absolutely the BEST performance and it's so much fun to watch the orchestra playing.
Maestro saindo, q linda HUMILDADE !!!
Il Direttore d'Orchestra una forza della natura.... i maestri di musica sono semplicemente fantastici 🎉
Great job by Chung and the TPO. Quick tempo, precise articulation, highly energetic performance. Rossini would approve.
Unquestionably the greatest rendition of this piece I've ever heard! Bravissima!
Just great ❤❤❤ time less,the enjoyment increases with every hearing
And the end everybody smile and that makes me smile too
Having fun with your job, nothing beats that.
They are having so much fun! It's infectious. I was grinning and chuckling the whole time watching.
By far, the best version of this piece, one of my favorites.
What a pace And performed so so clearly! Just wonderful!
Truly magnificent! 👏
From his incredible movements, I'm pretty sure that conductor was just a tai chi master who accidentally walked on stage and still pulled it off.
Lol
@@mozart4426 Quite agree with you. Kind regards Glynn Evans and Greetings from Stourbridge West Midlands UK 🤝
KingGrio you make no sence
They are just cool
You dumb piece of shit you dont know chung myung hun?
I love this version!!!! All of them look so excited
William Tell Overture along with Ode to Joy remain my all time favourites
몇번 들어도 질리지 않군요
素晴らしい!何回も観てしまいます。トライアングルがど真ん中にいる。
I have listened to this wonderful performance over and over again. I admire the Conductor's conducting style. Brava Maestro!!!
Un nuevo saludo desde Chile ...Felicitaciones

l opera di Gioacchino Antonio Rossini non muore mai
Stupenda orchestra e bellissima esecuzione Rossini ringrazia dal cielo e anche per me grazie di cuore.
THIS, my esteemed and querulous colleagues, is exactly HOW a MASTERFUL conductor is supposed to be. Damn'd magnificent conducting! WHAT an ensemble!
Still the best rendition of this overture out there.
個性的な指揮者に圧倒され、最後まで見てみると、最後はめっちゃ感動✨
Bravo
Best version i have heard
Great gutso performance 👏👏👏👏
