    I love all the parents that are pointing out things to their kids, or even just sitting and hugging them. Helping them to gain an appreciation of it too.

    there's something charming, wonderful, and magical about hearing music outside of the concert hall/theater and listening to musicians play their instruments with great enjoyment in their street clothes. father sitting down with his kids at 1:06 was lovely. thank you to all the musicians for lugging their sometimes heavy instruments out and bringing music to the people.

    I'm sure I can speak on behalf of everyone from Nottingham who sat down to watch live television coverage of Torvill and Dean from the 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympics. Even though the outcome is always the same and is written in history, this music stills sends shivers down my spine as I recall that performance. I am instantly transported back to that exact same feeling, that same electricity and the euphoria of seeing such a performance.
    Thanks to all involved, there is something that really just makes it work well with a crowd and they can't all be associating it with Torvill and Dean !

    • @DalokiMauvais
      @DalokiMauvais 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's another video that, like this one, I come back and watch frequently. I don't associate the two because each is a masterpiece in its own form. Euphoria is a very good word for my response to each performance, too.

    A wonderful way to present classical music: in ordinary clothes, in a very public place, entering and leaving by stealth, seemingly just for the fun of it and playing so well and utterly without pretension.
    I'd like to hear the whole repertoire in this manner lol
    Congrats to the Copenhagen Phil and all such performances.

    One second there is an orchestra there, the next second there is not, the lady at the end looks confused and I started thinking that there's something deep to the whole flash mob thing, one second it's there the next it's not, life is short, celebrate, have fun.

      I'm part of "the young" and I can enjoy this music, yet I also love electronic dace music (edm) and certain pieces of trap/rap. Don't think that just because we listen to one genre means we can't enjoy another.
