I think that the surplus of cannon shots in Tchaikovsky's 1812 are a sign of his brilliant foresight. He obviously anticipated the advent of the machine gun.
You have a great talent in both music and comedy. You combine them and come up with a show that is comical and very entertaining. I only wish I could see one of your concerts in person. 👍❤️📹🤭😃
I'm an American by choice, and, after 6 decades, I'm still happy I've left behind all that uniformity, conformity, and submissiveness Europe is full of. An orchestral symphony is not entertainment but an exercise in obedience - both for the performers and for the stilled audience.
Rainer you are priceless wet my self laughing when are you next in Birmingham UK, you make classical just so much fun , you have helped open the mind to the stunning world of classical, still not sure about Opera struggling with that topic , best wishes Steve
If like me you LIKE cannons try Beethoven's Wellington's Victory. It not only has two batteries of cannons but muskets as well. If you listen with earphoness as I did the first time I heard it, it starts with a lone drummer marching in one ear through your head and out the other ear.
This is too funny. Reminds me of a bit by Spike Jones where it started with cavemen banging rocks together, then the classical artists, then Dixieland, then Jazz, then Big Band, and then Spike Jones, which went back to the cavemen banging rocks together.
Many years ago, I took my second graders to an orchestra concert geared for small children. "The Surprise Symphony" was played. They were unimpressed until...Surprise! Just imagine an entire group of 7/8-year-olds levitating simultaneously. It was great!! They talked about the surprise for days.
🙈🎶👍🤣🤣 Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽, this musical literature is amazing, what music can achieve. It was fun, cultural and didactic teaching, grateful that they shared that circle was put together.
The Moody Blues already composed a track concerning the history of music in 1971, coming in at under 5 minutes and called Procession. There was some humour, especially when the cavemen come to a climax, just before the Indian Sitars take over. The guitar part at the end is phenominal and walks right into the guitar part of the next track without a break, a brilliant pop song, by contrast......
There should've been a nod to Also Sprach Zarathustra, given the themes of the story Strauss based his symphonic poem and it appearing in the Barbie movie. Literally perfect for this.
Now, THIS is a banger, and I hope you cut this into youtube shorts and get as many eyeballs on it as you can. Found the channel today, and I think this is good stuff to watch. Thank you.
Há MUITO (MUUUITOO) tempo eu não ria TANTO com um vídeo de humor relacionado à música!!! Quase ENFARTEI de TANTO RIR!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 A transição do serialismo para o tema da Barbie foi GENIAL!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ❤AMEI o vídeo e compartilhei o link com vários amigos!!!❤ Parabéns, direto do Brasil!!!
Laughed from the beginning till the end - a masterpiece. Wonderful!
You’re way too easily pleased.
From cavemen to Bach is a big leap.
Yeah. But, as he says, they are all rubbish.
@@RainerHerschTH-cam Ah... I see

Medieval músic is amazing, but I get the joke 😂

A drum, a bone with holes, the Bach. Got it! 😅
Why did the music department at my university make us go through 4 semesters of History of Music when we could have just watched this?!🤣
Greed, tuition fees💰
So you could teach your students and children.
You have a great talent in both music and comedy. You combine them and come up with a show that is comical and very entertaining. I only wish I could see one of your concerts in person. 👍❤️📹🤭😃
Please move to the UK. Preferably my house - the front room.
@@RainerHerschTH-cam This is the funniest response ever !
@@RainerHerschTH-cam We'll be there, where do you live..? 😋
Laughed from beginning to end! 😂 I think you should do an extended version with more composers!
Promise to work on it.
@@RainerHerschTH-camadd Mahler, Stockhausen, Verdi, Puccini, David Bruce...
I'm an American from across the pond, watching a funny Orchestral! Who woulda thought!
"Who'd a-thunk it?" It was a line from the novel, The Group, by Mary McCarthy.

Yesterday was scary medically. Today is better...and this interlude brought me joy. Thank you.
That is really good. Very best wishes.
That was absolutely brilliant! I had given up on new videos on this channel and I've never been happier to be proven wrong!
Stay tuned. Might take a while to get it all ready, but we’re coming.
@@RainerHerschTH-cam
O Joy ❤️ Thank You
What a surprise to see the latest video today. Sure miss watching and listening to them, wish there are more of them. Thanks for sharing.
Will try. Thanks for watching.
Absolutely wonderful. Well done to you and your butler.
Haha!
So, Schoenberg is Barbie and Barbie is a caveman. It's the circle of life.
That’s about the sum of it 😀
It's too, it's too! Hee!
The transition from Schöberg to Barbie Girl was brilliant! Is there any way to get the materials from the show to perform this with our own orchestra?
🤩
Extremely hilarious! Enjoyed every bit of it!
Rainer you are priceless wet my self laughing when are you next in Birmingham UK, you make classical just so much fun , you have helped open the mind to the stunning world of classical, still not sure about Opera struggling with that topic , best wishes Steve
Thanks! Well, most of the stuff around classical music is nonsense, so it is quite easy.
Delightful!! I was laughing to myself outloud.Brilliant take on the classic pieces.Thanks for having such a great sense of humour,
„Then came Bach” - wait, what? 😂
Yes - thanks forgetting the joke. (To all those early music nerds out there: it is a joke, by the way).
If like me you LIKE cannons try Beethoven's Wellington's Victory. It not only has two batteries of cannons but muskets as well. If you listen with earphoness as I did the first time I heard it, it starts with a lone drummer marching in one ear through your head and out the other ear.
Modern Peter Schickele.
So wonderful!
I appreciate his willingness to bring classical music to the masses. Sadly, 1/8th of the masses deny the rest the money to enjoy it..
I liked the way you brought back Wagner to his essence. Now I can even appreciate him.
Yup, that’s the kernel of Wagner.
Clever and veri cute entertainment as usual.
Very, very intersting and enjoiable!
High praise. Thanks.
Absolutely brilliant. A 6000 year history of music summarized in eleven minutes with a pinch of comedy.
Amazing!!!! We don't deserve to see this for free!!!!
Really funny went and saw one of his new-year concerts fantastic. Not seen this one before!. Very funny
This is too funny. Reminds me of a bit by Spike Jones where it started with cavemen banging rocks together, then the classical artists, then Dixieland, then Jazz, then Big Band, and then Spike Jones, which went back to the cavemen banging rocks together.
Thanks. Nice to be thought of in the same breath as the great Spike Jones.
Sid Ceasar in Your Show of Shows did a Very Similar Sketch/Riff upon this as well. And.. ...ftm, Ernie Kovacs might have (done so) too.. 👍👏👏👏
LOVE you musical comedy - from Oregon, USA
Well, I love Oregon. So that makes us even.
Rainer, you should twist the arm of the Oregon Symphony and come do a show! I will be the 3rd in line to buy a ticket!
Maestro Hersch is genius! People say classical music is Serious music...and he challenged it....he made it hilarious. entertaining and funny
best thing i've watched all week. thank you!! 🤣
Yaaay!
Glad to see your videos again! Thoroughly enjoyed this one! Thanks for posting!!
Glad you enjoyed it!

I thank you for uploading this!! That's a good start for the weekend :)
Thanks!
Very funny, thanks for sharing Rainer and orchestra. Appreciated and liked. 😊👍
That’s great.
I think my dad would have gotten a kick out of this. He's the one who turned me on to classical music.
That was funny, making for an enjoyable evening.
Were you there?
That was such a fun video! 😂 Thank you so much for making this!! 🙏🏻🥰
To be honest, we were doing to do the routine anyway 😃
Funny but true. At least about the drum bit. Today you cannot find anything that doesn't feature a drum in the foreground. 🙂🙂
Laughed a lot.... And learnt a lot too! 😂
Very well done....PDQ Bach would approve.
R.i.p.
This is gold...
Thanks!

Thanks so much. Greetings back fro London.
3:10 That was surprising... and unexpected
That was very entertaining😂
I like how it ends where it started, representing a core component of music and it's inevitable outcome of music evolving alongside humans.
Excellent!!!❤😂😂😂😂😂
4:15 -- the Kyoto Tachibana "Orange Devils" refer to the French horn as "Escargot" . . .
Sheer Brilliance! 😂😂😂
The Maestro of Mirth strikes again....❣️
Should have been written "Barbie girl KEN never die"
I was totally expecting the "and what do you get?" to go into the muppets burlesque song about 10 terrific girls and only 9 costumes...
Hermosa adaptación de música de Bach, escrita hace 300 años!
You weren't *asking* for help ... it was being *offered* 😉 but I do get what you mean 🙂
Enjoying the videos by the way 😊
If Monty Python was still doing sketches today, this would definitely be one of them!
The 1812 Overture - LOL!
I almost choked myself watching this 😂
OMG!! Back to the cave men!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
