15 Months Later Update:
This "reaction" has triggered so many people over the year and some that it has been up. It's actually comical most of the time and I have enjoyed matching the energy and tone of their comments. It's astonishing how comfortably rude folks will be when their keyboard is doing the talking from a distance.
Things to note of material I missed ⬇
🔴I misidentified the English Horn and Ocarina. It happens, apologies. Thank you for the reminders! 🙌🙌
🔴 Folks need to move past the vernacular of any modern percussionist calling Tubular Bells/Orchestral Chimes "Chimes" for short when clearly looking directly at the instrument.
There have been handfuls of older musicians that are demonstrating difficulty with undstanding that 'chimes' does not automatically refer to wind chimes. Please adapt as all throughout my undergrad/masters studies, as well as gigs, this term is used very freely without confusion.
🔴🔴 If you find this reaction is too long and that I stop too often, simply go watch a different one. It's a very simple solution. My channel is more about insight and analysis and I got super excited when I recorded this. It was also only the 4th video I did on the channel and was still very new to creating this style of video content. Yea... LOL I did stop a TON and talked a lot but there was a lot to talk about. Being an agressive ass in the comments to a stranger does nothing positive and I'll just make fun of you. #boomer 🤣
Thanks for reading!
loved your breakdown, fuck haters
This was a great reaction video. You have something to say. And you know what you are talking about.
Even though we know that it is all the result of a lot of practice, the end result is always surprising.
Bunch of snobs who most likely never been in an orchestra honestly. The same type of people who know every technical piece of knowledge for Guitars, but can't play themselves. You do you.
@@klausolekristiansen2960 No, he has nothing else to say.
This is circa 1966, The last year The Beatles ever toured and 3yrs before woodstock for a point of reference in pop music. I bring this up because this piece of music remained on the charts for a year in a time when rock bands dominated the landscape. A true masterpiece created on a shoestring budget.
Ennio Morricone was an amazing composer. His dollar trilogy scores are masterpieces.
The instrument you were trying to recall the name of: ocarina .
Common name - Sweet Potato
I'm sure he would have recognized this if he had played some more Zelda games. :)
He said that at the end of the video. In the last minute or so.
Real lack of Zelda knowledge. The shame.
Ah, the clay cuckoo (Swedish name) of time.
I literally just came home from watching this concert with the Danish Symphony Orchestra. I missed it when they played it 4 years ago, but had to get tickets for it this time. It finished an hour ago and I still have the chills. Amazing experience. Thanks for giving all the insights to the different layers. It lets you appreciate it so much more when you notice how insane the orchestration is.
Btw it’s actually two songs merged together. They start playing The good, the bad and the Ugly. At the arpeggio they switch to playing Ecstacy of Gold, another Morricone song from movie. And then they end by merging back into the first one.
Wow, you got to see them. Far out. Fistful of Djangos.
U r so fortunate to have seen n heard this masterpiece ❤
I love "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" but "The Ecstasy of Gold" gives me chills every time I hear it.
The orchestration that you speak of is compliments of the genius, Ennio Morricone.
This orchestra has done some amazing themed concerts with scores from both movies, TV and games. You should check some of them out for sure.
Unsure if you’re a native English speaker -but just for future reference - when you use both and then list three things, it’s not grammatically correct.
A better way to phrase this would have been: “… themed concerts with scores from movies, TV, and games.”
Not trying to be a grammar Cop or anything it’s just one of my personal pet peeves when people use plural descriptors incorrectly
I hope you have a long and happy life!
I love watching reaction clips from people who actually know music and know what they're talking about! Thank you for your insight!
¡Don't let yourself be manipulated!... I'm not saying that this Mr. Tony is doing it with you. I understand that you want to have the opinion of some expert. And that's fine... ¡Just as "opinion"! Everyone should be trained in how to appreciate music. The day you study about music theory, and, above all, KNOW HOW TO APPRECIATE GOOD MUSIC, well, that day you will not only dominate this, YOU COULD EVEN COMPOSE MUSIC... Greetings!
It was nice from hearing from you I learned alot thank you
Yep, this one reaction video was super interesting. He wasn't afraid to stop many times because he wanted to explain it and react to it.
Agreed; great to have an informed reaction. Thanks for that.
But OMG, did this frustrate me..
I needed resolution.
I'm not into Tantric UA-cam, lol 😅.
Keep commentary snappy; expand details _after_ the music finishes. I'm sure you can see why that works.
I'm here, because you analyse and explain what's going on in this fantastic music. Even if you stops and replays 100 times and lastest a hour, I would pay 100% attention all the time.
Great reaction - thanks!
The voice of the Angel always gives me chills. "Beautiful," does not even describe it.
Danish National Symphony Orchestra has made a number of amazing cover version of classical film melodies and computer games. You are welcome to react to them again 🙂
The Danish National Symphony Orchestra is pure fire honestly. Please do more of them ! Such an underrated orchestra!!
Fun fact : E. Moriconne and S. Leon were very good friends. S. Leon came to see E. Moriconne with only the script for certain scenes from his films. Moriconne made the music and the scenes were shot ACCORDING to the music..... Pure genius.
Sergio Leone, pls. The two went even to the same school.
This is an exceptional piece to review. Thanks for your take on it. Most of the reaction videos I have seen for this are all "ooh" and "ahh," with some tingles in there too. It is nice to have someone with a music background adding the what's and why's to the experience. Thanks again.
I love how informative and technical your reactions are. It's a world I know very little about, so really apreaciate the insight! Thanks!
I think the mix on this recording is what takes it to another level. It was what caught me when I first heard it. The mix is just amazeballs.
I thought this would be a regular boring reaction, but it was incredibly insightful and interesting. Instant subscription. Thanks.
If your view count keeps going up that's me everytime I come back to listen to your breakdown. This is my favrotie movie since I was young and this entire score always brings me to tears. Being guided with your expertise through these two songs I know so well, gives me a whole new level of love and appreciation for the Maestro. For I am completely void of musical knowledge or talent. Thank you.
DrumRoll: great reaction, the most insightful, expanatory comments on this fantastic piece that I've ever heard. Lets me appreciate this incredible performance so much more. Fantastic arrangement, incredible musicianship. Thank you, I'll look for more of your 'work'.
Thanks. I appreciate the comment
OMG I must have seen a dozen people react to this piece but to have someone like yourself break it down was amazing. It proves that A. you are never to old to learn and B. when you truely listen to something like this with a proper ear you hear it in a whole new light. I am deaf in one ear so never get the true joy of really good headphones so have you point things out that i would miss was great. Also i know nothing about music so thank for educating me.
So you mean that you need an "expert" to tell you what the music is all about? I do pity anyone who cannot form their own opinion.
@@Vinterfridnot talking only about music but the point of listening the opinion of others is get information that maybe they can describe due their experiences or knowledge
Have an opinion only through your own experience is something very limited
Quite
Quite Enjoyable Presentation... Educational Musically.
I was drawn to your channel with your Nightwish reaction, and was thoroughly impressed. I have returned to this, and it continues. I am in large a "lurker", and dont usually comment, but I must say that with all the reaction channels I frequent, (around 80) yours is by far the best. Dont get me wrong, I do enjoy others alot, for either the personalities, or some other goofy reasons, but I really like your knowledgeable insights, and I can safely say I have learned something after watching you. Also I like the respect you show for the musicians. Thank you and please keep it coming.
Wow! Thank you for such a kind comment. That's really nice to read. I hope you find your way to my Twitch stream and say hello. We have a fun community of chill people and it's a fun lurker place. Thanks again!
@@DrumRollTonyReacts Since you also do gaming try some of the game music the Danish National Symphony Orchestra also have covered, like Halo.
Normally, I do not like frequent stops, but I find myself listening for the specific instrument/s you mention. I am a 79 year old classically trained coloratura lyric soprano. Both the Mezzosoprano and the lyric Soprano have trained for years to achieve this level of expertise. The entire performance is astounding! Thank you for your insightful reaction.
You mention Halo, a few years ago, they did a game related concert, where Halo was one of the themes playing, plus a bunch of others. Totally worth looking into, plus they've done a good bunch of movies and series as well. Nice reaction by the way!
Thank you! I knew they did Halo from a previous comment but I didn't know they did a full on video game concert. Amazing
and a lord of the rings concert where there was a guy pounding on an anvil and a guy dropping chains on a metal plate
You will never hear a better performance of this masterpiece. This was my first performance of DNSO that introduced me to how a symphony orchestra is supposed to sound. I have watched various orchestras over the years, and while they are good, none of them come close to this one. A part of this orchestra took part with the great Gary Brooker doing Whiter Shade of Pale in 2006. Again, the same orchestration took place and made this great song brand new 40 years later.
I always like hearing another breakdown of this amazing performance, everyone catches different details. And yes, it's MAGIC every time I hear it.
Thank you for your amazing reaction/analysis.
I really liked your in-depth explanation, then replayed that part so we could hear what you pointed out.
-----
To those who are complaining about he pauses too much:
What did you expect - it's a reaction video?
If you want to watch the video without interruption, then find the original video (which is listed in the description).
Thabks. I appreciate the support. Especially about pause ⏸️. Every time I would listen to music with my music mentors they would always pause to talk and rewind. I know it's not everyone's thing but there are other reactions channels that say "wow that was good" and move on. They might like those.
@@DrumRollTonyReacts No no no it is exactely how it should be done. Stop anytime you have something to say, then rewind then play again, again and again. Get the point across so we dumbass who aren't musician can get the point.
Thanks a lot for a great reaction video - awesome - btw going to see the Danish Symphony Orchestra here in Copenhagen this summer, this exact play and a lot more. Cant wait ✌️🇩🇰
I'm jealous you get to see them! 🎶
@@DrumRollTonyReacts thanks a lot man. Check out the program for the show here if you are corious:
drkoncerthuset.dk/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Program-duellen-moricone-slar-igen.pdf
I was most impressed by Tuva Semmingsen. Opera singer. Sound effects voice. Whistler. What a versatile talent!
I can never get sick of watching this performance. I remember seeing this movie when I was a kid with my father for the first time and heard that song, I knew that I had to learn an instrument This performance was just beautiful and flawless, and I learned some thing new, so thank you. Great reaction.
Christine Nonbo Andersen is incredible.(soprano) watch how she shapes each note!
Fun fact, the performance was recorded in a 230 million dollar concert hall equipped with the best audio and video gear money can buy.
your the first reactor of this video that i have seen that speaks of and appreciates the production and sound. who stood where and how to mic them. the amount of time and effort to place them and mic them must have been as hard as the orchestra practicing the music
If you liked this, then you should react to a 2006 concert in the park with this same Danish National Symphony Orchestra with guests Procol Harum, performing " Whiter Shade of Pale" !
This Orchestra has over 100 musicians and over 70 Choir Members !
The english horn player is next level.. it takes a LOT of skill and breath control to perform that piece
I’ve heard this countless times and have always loved it but is was really great to learn about the music from someone who knows what they’re talking about.
A Fistful of Dollars, For a few Dollars More and Misty Mountain from The Hobbit are all pieces they have done well.
The Danish National Symphony Orchestra is one of the not too many good things to come from our TV license for state media(now replaced by taxes).
Hit the like as soon as you explained what the director actually does, and the orchestration. You are great at explaining and makeing people aware of what makes something well done or not. Even for simpletons like me, with no musical education, but a love for music.
What a classic, love it.
That hanging man at 8:23... Perfect timing and direction!
When this reaction started, I was hearing a lot of his personal comments and
I thought it was all going to be about him. Some examples:
How heavy the chimes were "Anyway, sorry, that's a distraction".
Slapstick pinch "Sorry, that's a huge tangent".
Is that a pan flute ? "Sorry".
"OK, there is a guy on a noose. Sorry."
But later, he explained some things to listen for and I heard things I never have before.
Like "layer change" at 19:43.
Some nice explanation of baton significance.
The technical terms like "chord vs arpeggio" made sense.
Also "intonation. Call and response. Resolution. Orchestration. Rhythmic themes.
Roboto. Dominant voice. Ostinato. 1/4 note triplicate rhythms, euphoniums ".
"Through education and knowledge come appreciation." Friedrich Nietzsche
Ecstacy of gold is one of the greatest pieces of music made for a film
Really enjoyed the way you broke it down and explained all the intricate movements, loved it.ps when that oboe played every hair on my neck stood up
When I’m at a classical concert, I usually enjoy watching the percussion dudes in the back. They often seem like they’re having the most fun out of all the musicians because of the variety of instruments they get to play. This particular symphony orchestra happens to be located in my city, and the concert hall has seating all around the stage, which lets you get a great top down view of the all the percussion shenanigans back there. I love it!
Hell yea! Lol percussionist life is fun with the right people
I love Ennio Morricone's theatrical music with its variation of instruments blending in beautifully with voices.
three weeks i watched your analysis, had to come back and re watch it. you are killing the analysis of this video. you make my appreciation of this song a whole octave level higher. lol. keep doing this man. wish more channels threw analysts like you at the songs.
Thx for coming back
The mystery instrument in the start (that no reactor knows) is an "OCARINA" Clay Flute. I think the origin is prehistoric Italy/Croatia/Balkans. (The ocarina is a wind musical instrument; it is a type of vessel flute.) The Neolithic period lasted from around 4300 BC down to 2000 BC, so some 6000 years before present. So it's a very old instrument...
I'm familiar with what a ocarina is. I just didn't identify it correctly in real time watching the video. Thanks for the info
@@DrumRollTonyReacts Thanks for a GREAT Reaction - with knowledge to share. As a Swede I'm a bit envious at the Danes that NAILED this. Check out David Garrett
German violinist, I think you'll have some great reactions to him. 70 million Germans are waiting for someone to react.... Also Hans Zimmer in concert. Check that out.
The second part of the piece is called the "Ecstasy of Gold" is one of the closing number of the movie... fun fact , Metallica , the rock band , has been playing that number before their concerts for years before they play their own music...
I had no clue Metallica did that
@@DrumRollTonyReacts if you take a look to the "Sad Hill Unearthed " documentary you can see James Hetfield proclaiming his love for the specific piece of Ennio''s music.
By the way, that documentary is an epic story on its own : a group of Spanish movie lovers rebuilding from scratch the cemetery found at the end of the movie. The set, which was built by soldiers in the northern Spanish province of Burgos for Sergio Leone’s classic 1966 spaghetti western, had been forgotten and reclaimed by nature until the Sad Hill Cultural Association stepped in. With the help of crowdfunding and volunteers from France, Germany, Turkey, Italy and the US, its members slowly, and backbreakingly, cleared the site to reveal the famous stone circle and its hidden graves.
You asked about how old the music was. The movie came out in 1967, so you can say it was written in 66 or 67, so about 56 years ago
If anyone would tell me to explain to them what perfection is, I would show them this video. Great Ennio Morricone, Great Orchestra and great sound engineer.
I appreciate you explaining what's happening. I took alto recover as an adult and our assemble included other instruments. It was fun and your explanations makes me want to play again at 62 years of age! Thank you!
The funny thing. When I search for the reaction for the musics I like, it's always your reaction I see. Thanks.
that horn solo he amazing and still you see a glance to conductor .
I learned more about orchestral music by your video than in 10 years in an Austrian school. And we are known for famous classical music...
Thanks a lot! (Watched this a hundred times, btw...)
Always fun to hear a pro explain it! Keep’em coming!
Absolutely love the breakdown. I like the slight rewinds to get back into it before the next bit of info. Even the sections played 3 or more times is fine because the info being added is so interesting.
The lady singing in thd beginning is Norwegian meźzo soprano Tuva Semmingsen.
Thanks for that. It was like a quick refresher course. The oboe always slays me. I'd suggest Procol Harem's "Whiter Shade of Pale" with this orchestra.
It is so amazing from so many perspectives. From mine, it really is when the soprano starts to sing, because it reminds of my childhood. When the wives of the farmers sang, to get the attention from their cattle in the fields.
Let's not forget that all this is due to the genius of Maestro Ennio Morricone, who in addition to this has written the most beautiful soundtracks of the most famous Oscar-winning films including Mission, Once upon a time in America and many others. Before his death he was awarded the Oscar for Lifetime Achievement.
👏👏👏🎶🎶
@@DrumRollTonyReacts The film is not Hollywood-style but is an Italian spaghetti-westwrn shot in Italy at Cinecittà. Thanks for letting him listen. Greetings from Rome.
I really enjoyed your reaction, this version/medley from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is just brain meltingly good
Oh man I’m thrilled to have found this dude, I love music of every genre under the sun and have seen dozens and dozens of reaction vids to this and this is by far the best my friend. I am not a musician and although I pretty much like every reaction I’ve seen to this it’s amazing to me how you break everything down both to the educated and I’m my case, uneducated. The best sound to my ear in the whole world is the French horn so I was thrilled when you made mention of the French horn being dominant 😊 Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧 dude 😊🇬🇧🇺🇸
I have been to two of their concerts and going for one more next year. They are amazing! They have a lot more really good videos out here. You'll get addicted!
I learned something today, what a conductor does during performance. Wow!
11:38. I've seen this many times and I always thought that the chime note was struck in chillingly perfect time.
I have always thought that chime players, gong players, triangle players, and xylophone players are grossly underrated. Morricone could have easily scored this piece without the chimes, but I think they add so much to the piece, especially in a movie setting. They have recently posted a video of the Mandalorian theme that is also fantastic; it is one of my favorite television show themes. It's worth checking out.
I believe the guy in the DSO was playing an English horn rather than an oboe in the second half of the performance - and the person singing and whistling in the orchestra - I believe she has a harmonica, played by another orchestra member, augmenting that wonderful sound [which I don't know how to type out] on the non-whistling parts. The soprano in the balcony has a beautiful voice. Also, on Jinjer's Pisces, I have a feeling you did notice the 5 string bass at that time and then momentarily forgot, when you were commenting on the 5-string bass for the PERENNIAL reaction. P.S. a flugelhorn/cornet piece might not provide enough variety for your purposes, but even for your personal enjoyment Paul de Stexhe covering Billie Eilish's "No Time to Die" is - I believe - beautiful enough to suggest a non-vocal instumental for a Bond song in the future! It's on his channel, Jan 23, 2022 @ Paul de Stexhe.
Great comment. Yea I missed that English horn. Lol not the first time I have messed that one up 🤣 I'll think about the piece you brought up. That could be great
The lady is the begining singing and whistling is known on the internet as "The wah wah lady" So that's how you should type out that sound I guess 🙂
@@lbernau thank you Lars - that's a great description
This is the original recording for the soundtrack of the movie The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. By Ennio Morricone.
Saturday, August 20th. DNSO will repeat “The Morricone Duel” and I’ll be there with my wife - can’t wait 😊
I’ve seen others listening to this version of “The Good The Bad and The Ugly”, yours is by far the best 👍
Finally someone who gets the music!! Well done!!
Superb breakdown, I learned a lot, much appreciated, you've earned my sub ;)
I'm the luckiest SOB.
I'm going to this concert live Aug 17th, when all the talented people are together and do this again, 4 yours after the incredible 100M+ views youtube success.
In the last few years, I have been exposed to the importance of the percussion section, and love it! A vastly underrated group.
👏👏
This as an awesome reaction I love the piece and loved your on the fly analysis. I would not call this “Classic Hollywood sound” as you said. It’s classic “Spaghetti western sound” if any. The collaboration between Leone and Morricone is legendary. I’m so proud that we have this orchestra in Denmark and my taxes are funding it. This has exposed so many people to a type of music and orchestrations they might not have seen or heard otherwise
Heh your tax payer reaction could be a reaction video on it's own :-) It changes from the susual "tax is socialism" stuff from where you know.
I saw how long your video was but somehow managed to hear the whole thing, and thusly, learned a lot. Thanks
Ecstasy of Gold. Such a neat add on to GB&U and cool atmosphere change. I wasn’t expecting it. Morricone wrote both beautiful and visceral music. It will just emotionally take you on journeys. Thanks so much for a wonderful and, most importantly to me, educated take on this piece. I’m in really late but just ignore the shade. They can’t do what you do. And it shows. Btw, Deborah’s Theme from Once Upon a Time in America by Morricone is stunning.
How can you enjoy a song in its entirety when you always pause and rewind 😂😂
Very easily
Thanks for your time to explain to a music lover why
The second part, The Ecstasy of Gold, has being used by Metallica as intro music for decades. A wonderful piece of music that give me the chills and feeling of anticipation like everytime I've seen Metallica live. Also an iconic scene in the movie which Metallica also plays on the video screens nowadays! Great movie!
Love this song. Love the Wha Wha Lady, Tuva, and loved your input (which mostly went way over my head)!
You have to love the Wah, Wah Lady!
I've heard this dozens of times, but I never learned as much about what was going on as I did listening to you.
Thank you for a well detailed and technical breakdown of what we are hearing, the other reactions although entertaining do not teach the listener anything about an orchestra. Well done!
This out in the open plains.
The 'wah wah and cry' is the cry at the moon of the coyotes
The 'yoh!yoh ! echo"' is the echo off the hills and canyon walls.
The sticks "crack" is thunder crack of prairie lightning storms, which can be very violent.
The woman high note singing is the scream of the prairie wind.
The beat of the music is the tempo of the horse and rider at a light gallope.
The drums are the native American representation.
Hanged man...see the movie series.
Best and the most informative reaction video I've heard on this composition. I like your style. I've learned some things today.
i very much enjoy watching people react to this, but i love watching ppl that know about music react to it-
and when you say that it elevates almost like HALO... funny thing, they also did HALO and as a gamer it is something to watch it played at this level.... you should react to that as well
Fav part for me, is the oboe and piano. And no matter how many times I watch it, I'm still amazed over the lung capacity of that oboe player.
The Danish National Symphony Orchestra did an excellent job with this cover, but the original version directed by Morricone himself with Edda Del'Orso, the Italian vocalist in the original score of Ecstasy of Gold (and more) stills the better. Her voice is fluid and flowing, she manage to hit the very high notes without forcing her voice. After that, many vocalists try to vocalize the same heavenly tones but cannot deliver those very high notes without straining their vocal cords in a feeble attempt to deliver the same sound. There's only one Edda Del'Orso and there will never be another like her. Blessings to her and Ennio.
The whistling lady, Tuva Semmingsen, is an incredible mezzosoprano, check out her singing on youtube.
Love her.
When I listen to this, I can FEEL them riding their horses across the plains.
Tangents are part of a reaction! Relate your memories. I took band for 6 years. Have missed it since 1977
What did you play? Maybe its time to join a community band?
I have seen many reactions to this piece, but I love yours the best. My reasoning is you educate us on what is going on and why it is too. Learned music terms while enjoying it.
Glad you liked it. 🍻
Trombone player here. I spent years hanging out in the back with you guys. Happy to be here.
Lol lol the back is where all the fun stuff happens
what a great reaction . the true musician was showing. nice.
ENNIO MORRICONE THANK YOU, YOU ARE AND WILL FOREVER BE THE GREATEST COMPOSER AND ORCHESTRA MASTER.
Great job in your review of this great works of music.
I've watched at least 30 reactions from this clip. This is the best … thank you for explaining everything. I live in Tasmania, the pubic hair-shaped island to the south of the big island, Australia.
I believe the instrument is an ocarina.
learned alot being a 10 thumb metal-head, but my ears knows what they like, even iff i cant do it
Christine if you do not know is a full blown shield maiden, CUZ it take a brave little girl to stand up and take on a full blow symphonic orchestra.
O and imaging the audience up there in the bleachers, suddenly someone get up and just sing.
Yo you gave a fantastic review obviously a musician I'm old enough to have seen the good the bad the ugly when it's circulated the theaters also hats off to whoever filmed this performance
