    I'm doing this in my HS orchestra tomorrow. It's pretty grueling, but the violins have it the worst. A bassist like myself shouldn't complain to much.

      I'm playing it for an audition and violinists definitely have it the worst.

    i know everyone here is because your orchestra is tasked with this monstrosity, as i’m guilty of this as well, and all i have to say is good luck with this vErY fUn piece. our hs symphony teacher, however, decided to take it a whole five steps further than necessary: we have three tests in the hardests sections and our teacher refuses to acknowledge the disaster that is our cello section (which i am unfortunately a part of) and when she does she goes out of her way to find nOt the easier, but the eASIEST parts as another strategy to ignore the most awful cello sections ive ever laid my eyes on difficulty wise, meaning all of us are tasked of spending our own time to learn this monstrosity. auditioning for the advanced orchestra as a freshman (basically unheard of) was a bad idea and i’m currently facing the repercussions while writing this as a way to procrastinate analyzing shifting patterns
    if you’re still reading this and you happen to be a violinist, i’m truly praying for your sanity

    played this freshmen year of high school over 15 years ago and snippets of it would just float back into my head from time to time. I had forgotten the composer and name and finally found it again through musipedia. Brings back a lot of good memories, including the anxiety I would feel tackling some of those runs on 1st violin. It's a beautiful piece and I'm glad I found a good version to come back to.

    An excerpt from this is part of my auditions happening in my High School Orchestra. Pls wish me luck
    Edit: thanks for the people who wished me luck. I didn’t make the highest orchestra I could but I made one lower. Still, thank you so much.

    @ChrlyChplnfan 9 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    This is one of my favorite pieces of all time! The communication with other players to make this sound and feel the way it should is so much fun! I am so happy you all chose to do this!

    I played this piece in 2014 when I was 14 with a summer school. it was honestly the best. i miss it so much! We played an incredible arrangement of this. I have a serious case of the feels now haha

  • @stephenjablonsky1941
    @stephenjablonsky1941 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I love the looks of joy on their faces as they play the amazing music that Tchaikovsky wrote for them. Each player in the ensemble thinks they have the best part--the sign of a great orchestrator. This what highly talented people do to get a mutual high. They certainly lit me up!

  • @zarninewman1735

    Just remembering playing this a few years back in a middle school orchestra and realizing how terrible we must have sounded- (played the real version)

  • @arianafale2850
    @arianafale2850 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I'm a 9th grader playing this in 2 days.I;m so scared our cello setion is great and so is our bass. But like first violins and seconds are barely pulling through. Im a second btw. I've been practicing a lot but got injured a while ago and this will be my first performance since my injury. I'm super nervous. I hope we can make it sound ok and pull through.

  • @meagan8546
    @meagan8546 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Ahh I remember playing the entire serenade as a 9th grader and ever since then it has been my favorite piece for strings! This is by far the best recording I have found. I love the sound the ensemble is able to produce and the passion poured into the piece. Simply amazing.

  • @josed.vargas3961

    As an 8th grade upright bassist you can assume how frightened I am to begin preparing this piece for concert in may with a youth orchestra, yet I am extremely excited

    Always interesting seeing performances where the person 'conducting' is actually one of the musicians (at least I believe that's what the 1st chair violin is doing). Brilliant performance of a difficult piece to pull off so thoroughly masterful as this. Thank you for sharing it!

  • @bitangaproductions

    Hello New Century Chamber Orchestra! I have listened to your recording of Serenade for Strings about maybe 50 times now. I was wondering is there any way of sending a message directly to one of the cello players? Like a contact? Thanks

  • @quiquebou
    @quiquebou 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This is not a studio but live! So you can't do it over and over again. It was brilliant in this very moment. Super bravo! Also for Nadja Sonnenberg.

    I love this piece so much. I had played it when i was in 10th grade as a violin 1 player. I remember it being very hard at first but it was so much fun to play and now seeing NCCO play it made it so much better. Keep up the good work guys!!!!!
