Song with no words, done by a group with no instruments = Grammy #2
My favorite description of this group and their epic cover of this!
The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, written by Tchaikovsky, is a part of The Nutcracker, a ballet that is definitely associated with Christmas. Your delight as you watched and listened to the Pentatonix video was akin to finding a small, and unexpected, present hiding in the Christmas tree.
This was their second Grammy win for the arrangement of this song I believe. I loved how people have described it before - a song with no words sung by a band with no instruments!
A group with no instruments singing a song with no words = grammy
This one will blow your mind considering there are NO WORDS / LYRICS. That is how Top Level Amazing Pentatonix is!!! They don't NEED words. They don't need instruments. They don't need percussion. They don't need a choir. They don't need a band. They ONLY need each other and their voices and they can do ANYTHING !!! EPIC !!!!!
A song with no words…performed by a group with no instruments…equals Grammy #2…Tchaikovsky must be turning over in his grave. The Nutcracker Suite is a ballet usually with a full orchestra. The “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” is a dream sequence dance.
It's from the ballet, The Nutrcracker! Definitely in the Christmas spirit...and they do it amazingly!
This is from Tchaikovsky's ballet, The Nutcracker Suite, which is set on Christmas Eve. Fantastic performance!
Haha I was just about to ask about Halfway 😂...it's my fav Messer song so yeah can't wait to see your reaction 😀
And this song...whew there is a reason they won a Grammy for it
Im so glad he is gonna get to hear Messer! Looking forward to that!
Not sure how true this is, but I heard that this song was Avi's idea, which he brought to Ben Bram and they arranged most of it. Avi's operatic training in college shines, especially in his brief solo.
A singing group singing no words won a Grammy for an instrumental playing no instruments. Ain't that just crazy😮✌️❤️😎
Thank you Salvo, for this great reaction too.😊😁
You owe it to yourself to watch The Nutcracker Suite ballet at least once in your life, it's such a classic and the music is truly beautiful and timeless. I am a genX Metalhead who loves most music, but one of my most precious childhood memories is Dancing In The Nutcracker as a Sugar Plum Fairy😊 before I gave up ballet and moved on to other things LOL and my mom was truly a ballerina, in the 50's she was a dancer for the Colorado Ballet Company and over her career played many different parts in the nutcracker, I still have her old ballet slippers in shadow boxes... thanks for the memories!
Missed seeing you!
It’s a Christmas song because the ballet plot takes place at Christmas time. Cities with valley companies, or parents with little dancers definitely consider it a christmas tradition. The tubes is used on background music services so you have heard it in shops. It’s used in movies and TV shows the sane way. .
PTX 🔥🤘
Definitely a Christmas song. Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy is a song from the ballet The Nutcracker, a Christmas ballet. No lyrics because its a traditional ballet - all orchestra. You've likely heard the tune from one of many commercials, tv shows, movies, and other media that have featured the song over the decades. The Sugar Plum Fairy is a character of the ballet and this specific piece plays during her solo. Think of the Sugar Plum Fairy as a fairy godmother - she is a beautiful, benevolent fairy who guides and helps the leading character, a child named Clara. I highly recommend checking out a production of The Nutcracker this Holiday season! Its a captivating story about a child's imagination on Christmas Eve night. You can find many different productions of the ballet online but I recommend either:
Nutcracker: The Motion Picture (1986)
George Balanchine's The Nutcracker (1993) - this guest stars a very young Macaulay Culkin btw!
I grew up with both and both are dear to my heart.
They also did the Waltz of the Flowers from the Nutcracker, but there isn’t a MV for it. Only a “Yule Log” audio recording, from 5-6 years ago. It’s also beautiful to listen to on your own time even if you don’t do a reaction to it.
It’s always great to find a PTX song that has slipped through the cracks! (It’s usually not one of the Grammy winners, though.) Happy you enjoyed it, happy Messer is on the schedule and happy you’re back. It looks like you had a fun vacation. Enjoyed your reaction, as always. Peace …
It is from the nutcracker
Great reaction. Glad someone realized you had missed it and requested it. Yay Messer reaction coming. I’ve been waiting with bated breath.
Only PTX a group that does not use instruments can win a grammy for a song that has no words. ((From Wikipedia "The "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" is a dance for a ballerina. It is the third movement in The Nutcracker pas de deux. This pas de deux is from Act 2 of the 1892 ballet The Nutcracker.")
I love your reaction! The Sugar Plum Fairy is a character in Tchaikovsky's ballet The Nutcracker, traditionally performed around Christmas time... This is her theme, to which she dances. It's a simple tinkly tune, as from a music box. There are no words for it. PTX make an outstanding effort to bring it to life!
Wonderful reaction! A little Mitch slap? And Avi’s deep bass!
Great treat indeed!!
I can just see that as the background music for a Dr Who Christmas special
Treat is absolutely the right word. ❤
Loved how much you loved this.
I think you are going to enjoy Halfway.
Yes they won a Grammy as an acapella group doing an instrumental written for Orchestra and ballet. Yes. They are gods. (The chart is part of the Nutcracker by Tschikovsky; I've played the Trombone parts many times) Their creativity knows no bounds.
Lol you got Mitch slapped 😂😂😂
Great reaction to a very impressing PTX “cover”.
I hope that you will also find the time to continue your journey with Avi’s fabulous songs and suggest “Otherside”.
looooooooove your ractions! this band, and others like them are so worth your time. Check out "Straight No Chaser" for a similar experience. Specifically their Christmas songs when they change lyrics of the classics.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Newest Messer song is the most Mitch song that he’s done it’s amazing
Great reaction! I’m SO EXCITED for you to get to Messer’s “Halfway”-It’s my favorite one! Also PTX’s new releases of Kiss From a Rose and O Holy Night are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥and Little Toy Trains is GORGEOUS. PLEASE get to those! 👏🏻😁
Always great to find a reactor discovering one of the classic PTX oldies! You can feel Avi's influence all over this one. The Grammy for arrangement was well earned.
This is usually a light and happy lyrical song. So the contrast with how this was arranged and filmed is even more striking. This is a ballet that one usually attends at Christmas.
Yes, the video is absolutely sinister!
I don’t know why I kinda wanna see you react to the nutcracker ballet. There is an amazing recording with Macaulay Culkin. I watch it every christmas
Many of us messer fans love Halfway the most. Me, because its his most ballady song and thats where Mitch's voice shines the most imo. I'm curious to see if you like it as much since you tend to favor his songs that have good production and beat drops. I'm looking forward to it. Also ptx just released a new greatest hits Christmas album with 8 new tracks. So plenty to still react to. Plus i feel theres still lots of their Christmas stuff you haven't done.
Got to love Dark 'Tonix. This one, Making Christmas, My Favorite Things, and maybe God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. Just a touch of darkness and fun....
It’s one of the songs from Nutcracker
I hope that you’re getting ready to react to the new holiday album.
Yeah, as others have said - it's a classical piece from the ballet The Nutcracker. PTX has done another piece from it called "Waltz of the Flowers". Sadly no music video, but you should still have a listen. It's with Matt, instead of Avi.
Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, best place to see ptx's reference moves is see the movie Fantasia by Disney around 1940. PTX's movements are based on that. Just that clip from the movie might be online, but the whole movie is awesome 🎉.
You were inadvertently talking over the very last note of the song. Please, for yourself, listen to the last minute or so of the video to hear Avi drop a BOMB.
I agree he sometimes spoils tunes. Still like him though.😅
@@paulmason6474 , he’s a favorite reactor of mine too. I only commented because I know he’s a fan of Avi and he would have LOVED that bass drop.
Asking my fellow Pentaholics, but does anyone know if they’ve ever performed this live? I’ve never been able to find anything other than a short fancam of them performing this at the Empire State Building several years ago.
New subscriber, just discovered your channel, and love it. Have you ever done a reaction to Shakespeares sister, Stay. It’s a great song, would love to see your reaction to it
If you like the idea of an acapella 'instrumental', check out VoicePlay's _Halo Theme._ It's really great even if you are unfamiliar with the game. Their site has both a music-only 3-minute version, and a 6-minute one which includes some group history and a touching tribute. I recommend you react to the longer one, which includes an actual video instead of just the album cover.
Oddly enough, a shortened version of this was performed by PTX as the intro music for Fox's Sunday Night Football Pre-game show in 2017. Not what I usually think of in relation to football theme music, but it seemed to work! ua-cam.com/video/OBGBMbC-L6A/v-deo.html
One of my favorite ptx songs. I want more classical pieces tho. How about moonlight sonata? Or the 5th by beethoven. The blue danube? There's so many classical pieces they can do!
I believe it was Avi with his classical music training that was instrumental in getting the others to try orchestral/classical music. It was certainly he who suggested they add 'Christus Factus Est' to the start of 'Aha'. Maybe the others don't have the will, interest or training to go down that route any more?
Recommend their new original, Please Santa Please.
Why does it remind me of an Opera?
Avi.
