As an orchestral musician with limited tolerance for conductors who engage in choreography to draw attention to themselves, rather than helping the musicians play well together, i find these (unwitting) caricatures of conducting to be absolutely hilarious. I can somewhat excuse Uchida, as at least her gestures, as odd as they are, seem to be in service of the music, but some of the piano-ists look like absolute buffoons. Perhaps that is the image (Friedrich) Gulda in that hat is trying to cultivate, but the "triple axel" Rach 3, what a silly joker...
My God, I laugh and get angry at the same time. Except Barenboim, no one is a real conductor. Btw, it is just me or Gavrilov is playing worst every year?
(2:50) "The coast is clear".....at least he looks like he's having a good time...lol...like he's not taking himself too seriously. He reminds me of Oscar on the "Odd Couple".....backwards hat and all xD
Some of these are absurd because you simply can't do Rachmaninov or Beethoven's Emperor without a conductor. The best is Uchida because she's a great pianist and because you don't need a seperate conductor in Mozart piano concertos, though it does help. She's a decent conductor here. Don't forget that she's communicating with the 0rchestra when conducting, NOT with the audience. It's not like Cab Calloway, who was just beating time. Also, I think Gulda (in the Emperor) played the piano part well.
@@Kaoskadosk What's funny is while I was watching the video I was wondering if it were possible to conduct and play something as hard as Rach 3 at the same time.. That was the exact moment this clip came up, answering my question.
Although Gulda's gesture is pretty weird, but his music is excellent I really love the Beethoven 5th piano concerto he performed. But what happened to Mr. Gavrilov??Couldn't believe that's him......
1:35 who is that? The others i get, they're conducting Arachmaninoff or Mozart's 20th, but this guy's conducting a nursery rhyme like it's Beethoven's 10th
I love classical music. Everything from funny stereotypes to intense passages to insanely beautiful pieces. It really moves me.
OMG so hysterical. Clever. I'm a concert pianist and this nailed the styles of conducting. Mitsuko was esp funny.
Concert pianist has a particular meaning.
Do more of this, please.. I am literally rolling in laughter now

my gosh this is PURE GENIUS
Everytime I find one that I like the next one is better.
gotta love Mitsuko Haha
philly cream cheese OMG HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA WEAVE WHERE ART THOU!
"cheese nom nom"
Keith Foester or "caught me a fish"
I made it until 2:55
Literally thought that was hj freaks at first
Netflix and chill! That one got me. Thanks, I needed the laugh.
I LOVE this video!!! One of my conducters had mastered the Sophie’s choice and headbangers ball
I will show you, don’t worry. Lol k
@@bolanddewsnap5698 spoiler alert: he REALLY DID NOT.
Poor guy.
heres a little known fact: i put "pixie hands" in my conductors notes. about time someone followed my cues.
I will NOT
This is one of the funniest videos I have ever seen!
I love how half of them are from the Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto
This turned out to be dimensions funnier than I expected 😂😂😂
Oh my god IM CRYINNGGG THIS IS TOO HILARIOUS
Oh dear what is it with these guys butchering Rachmaninoff so badly 😂
the first one, here: 0:12, GOD, those last notes were a mess.
I wanna cry 😂😂😂
And guess what. He is the winner of 1974 Tchaikovsky competition!!! LMFAO
I'm picturing Sergei making these gestures and expressions and my brain is exploding.
Daniel Lu Sergei was actually apparently very restrained both with the piano and conducting.
GULDA is the man!!! 😃😃 But see what beautiful sound he gets out of the orchestra 😎
truly hysterical!
we want more please. We need more!!!
The music goes well with the gestures as well.
I LOST IT IN STRANGER THINGS HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
Mitsuko loves the music a what she does.
I’m a pianist and I found this the funniest video I’ve seen in a month
"The coast is clear"
Gulda is by far the most hilarious
Everyone overboard
@@sebastianzaczek My personal favourite is "Philly cheese nom nom". The last part just killed me.
And "Netflix and chill" is just MOOD :-)
YES
NO
MAYBE SO
Friedrich Gulda was truly a goddamn legend...
6:00 My favourite one
Absolutely brilliant
This is so awesome, I love that everyone has a different style! Also, I think 1:54 was a young Daniel Barenboim, so that was cool to see
Thanks for making me laugh so much!!!!
My God, I laugh and get angry at the same time. Except Barenboim, no one is a real conductor. Btw, it is just me or Gavrilov is playing worst every year?
He's going the way of the Pogorelich
"how the mighty have fallen" indeed
You must thank to God that Pogorelich doesn't conduct.....
Well, he does force conductors to chase after his random tempi.
And Barenboim uses nothing but his eyebrows.
(2:50) "The coast is clear".....at least he looks like he's having a good time...lol...like he's not taking himself too seriously. He reminds me of Oscar on the "Odd Couple".....backwards hat and all xD

Love it
Rach 3 was very disrespectfully portrayed.
My thought was "If you're going to conduct as well as play the piano, why the *hell* do you pick Rach 3 to do it?"

@@tidnid1869 Have you heard Rachmaninoff's recording?
Absolutely
Chopin 1 has the flexibility, not rach 3
4:02 Look at the lady's resigned expression. Hahahaha...
Same expression at 1:28
haha oh man that's so gold. he may as well be spitting on her and her morale is just gone
1:09 let's take a moment of laugh❤❤
4:34 i love Mozart ❤️
Please make more of these!!
This is sooooo good
Uchida rocks! Love that woman!
Philly Cream Cheese nomnomnomnom
Someone :You are the conductor
That dancing man : No I'm the condancetor
Someone : The ... who?
1:26
You genius, thank you!!!
Yeah but Mitusko Uchida gets a great performance as does Barenboim
0:59 Clean
Lol Mitsuko san make my day!! hahahahahahahahaha!
Stranger Things?
I did NOT know she was a fan lol.
@@glenngouldschair390 she was trying to call mozart from his grave
Although Gulda's gesture is pretty weird, but his music is excellent
I really love the Beethoven 5th piano concerto he performed.
But what happened to Mr. Gavrilov??Couldn't believe that's him......
Richter advise he have a problem of egomania and narcissism to be a good musician
Who the heck is the pianist at 1:15!
Daniel Barenboim's spot on
Please put the name of these pieces up pls pls
17 pianists have downvoted this video.
who's the "4th down with 3 seconds to go" pianist at 1:12 ? would like to listen to the full recording ^^
What's the concerto young Daniel Barenboim is playing? (the first one) It's beautiful!
Mozart 26 & 13
Lovely! But the clips are sooo short :)
A new Olympic event. Like synchronized swimming only faster. The triple axel was brilliant, that would get a 9.5 (his recovery needs some practice).
BRAVO!!!
3:16 is that Yefim Bronfman??
No that's Gavrilov
Anyone know where that shoulder bounce comparison video is from at 4:27?
LMAO... Most appropriate move descriptions ever :D
1:35 who is that?
The others i get, they're conducting Arachmaninoff or Mozart's 20th, but this guy's conducting a nursery rhyme like it's Beethoven's 10th
Naoumoff. He's brilliant but he does seem crazy as a shithouse rat.
It's a Mozart concerto where's the respect ?
I bring to you all the conducting styles of Carter Simmons. You're so amazingly welcome!
When the classic beat drops
What piece is Barenboim playing from 2:36?
th-cam.com/video/Aqxr0gwq3tY/w-d-xo.html
Art Song Transpositions Thank you very much
The Fuggedaboutit is my favourite. Notice the guy in the audience who just starts laughing when it's over.
Surprised there is no Glenn Gould
SOMIT2003 his video recordings are very rare due to his shyness and preference for audio recordings
Glenn Gould wasn't a pianist + conductor. He was a pianist + choir.
@@lollycopter when he plays, he become a pianist+conductor+choir.
What concerto is Van Cliburn playing from 00:57?
All of Van Cliburn's clips are Prokofiev's third concerto
What’s the piece at 1:11 (4th Down with 3 Second to Go)?
Finale of Rach 3
Micha Weinst thank you so much!
1:50 and 2:36 is the same pianist BTW.
My god this is too good I'm dying
LOVED IT...🤣🤣🤣
Expertly observed.
I know what you did last summer 😂 best one
1:12 *HULK SMASH*
I need to who is that pianist in the old black and white footage
Van Cliburn
@@artsongtranspositions thank you very much :D
jetzt kapiert hoffentlich jeder, was der Unterschied von einemPianisten und einem richtigen Dirigenten ausmacht.
Danke schön (Trans: "Now, hopefully, everyone will understand the difference between a pianist and a real conductor")
hoffentlich...
Ja, ein Pianist kann Klavier spielen 😜
I thought this a serious demonstration. It's entertaining.
What's the one at 5:48
Gavrilov/Rach 2

Wow he did an Axel at the end...
I can’t stop laughing at the “Stranger Things” moment.

What is "the hypnotist" piece?
Can anybody tell me what the piece was during the Fond Farewell/Robin Williams at 2:26?
+yeah oh right rach 3 2nd movement
hillarious
I kind of like Uchida. As a cellist, I have issues with Daniel Barenboim, even though he's an outstanding pianist and conductor.
Poor Jacqueline 😥
Pianists are a damn menace
