Bravo !!! An excellent rendition of the original instrumental Pipe piece, by the Flautist, at 4:42”, as that's exactly how it sounded & very tricky to do !!! 👏🏻 😀
@@ArcticPhilharmonic Abolsutely! I really like the funky chords too during the verses and the orchestra joining the last chorus! Also, Espen is a remarkable choice for that role. His presence seems to fill the whole stage during the long shots. Especially, with his jumpy movements druing the choruses :)
Very nice use of the violons from 5:29 to the end! With a bigger chorus, it would be a masterpiece, but I think we're already not far from this IMHO! 👌
Nice, know this Song since the time it was released, at the middle of the 80ies but never watched IT in this original Version. The abba men made some more Musicals as well but none became famous like this one though
Way fuckin better than Adam Pascal. Espen is as close to the real soul of the Chess than any other current singer I've heard. Also Philharmonia is awesome. Where many failed, you kicked ass.
@@ArcticPhilharmonic Not only liked. I've heard so many versions. This is basically only one that nails it. Many other orchestras simply failed in rhytm or made other mistakes. You are so damn perfect in timing and intonation it's just not possible. This is how the official version should be.
@@paulwan7258 I think they are referring to the original singer of this - Murray Head. Any other version than Murray’s is a cover and his will always be the ultimate. It was released as a single and did well in the charts - promotional video here m.ua-cam.com/video/Lj9b6XnitQU/v-deo.html He sang the part of Tommy on the original cast tour in 1984 but no video of this song is on UA-cam (there are others of him playing this part with other songs from Chess).
The song has a little laid back feel but it's supposed to be pulsating like the city. A little less legato and ritardando would suit it. But the singer did a surprisingly good job.
Let’s blame that on the conductor, Anders Eljas? Although one WOULD expect him to know how this music should be performed, as he worked closely with Benny Anderson writing the orchestral score for “Chess” :-) Thanks for watching and commenting!
I will contact the publisher and ask if we can publish some more (maybe the whole concert..?). So check back with us once in a while, hopefully more to come. There is also a new song called "He is a man, he is a child" included in this production - ua-cam.com/video/lIaSv8QUybQ/v-deo.html
@@ArcticPhilharmonic Actually, this was bootlegged and released to many tape traders. The full show is available on a number of bootleg sites. I'm unsure if the copyright holder knows that or not.
Agree, and this is actually the backing singers tune, with the lead only meant to do the spoken parts. So the overall performance rests heavily on the chorus. They should've hired Anders Glenmark again! :)

Amazingly good. I love Espen, he really nails the role.

I loved this song very much, and still love this one, but always listen from radio or tapes, this is the first time to watch this with ochestra.
The first three minutes wow!
Woww, what a surprise when I saw the singer appearing in, I get goosebumps
this is so beautiful music,I mean just parts when they sing "one night in bangkok-..." I love the instrumental at that parts
BRAVISSIMI!! Great Orchestra!!
+musicalmania musical mania Thank you :-)
Love is song
Simply Brilliant! I really like that the drum fills give extra energy to the song.
Glad you liked it 🙏🙂

omg yea so beautiful ! I'm in love with this music ...I don't care about vocals i just like the music
The orchestration is fantastic, but I'm sorry...Murray Head is AL OVER THIS SONG!!!
It better be since Anders Eljas (the conductor) was also the conductor in the Murray Head version. He and Benny were the arrangers in the original.
Me gusto mucho esta interpretacion...Impresionante .tremenda orquesta sinfonica
man this song never fails to be so funky
Yeah!
Very nice live version!
Ok, just on my second vid of this concert and I am already a fan. Now, please, the full concert!
GrabbaGrippa we would love to publish the whole show, but it is not up to us, unfortunately...

You are right! Mr. Andersson wrote “Kristina från Duvemåla” which is quite a beautiful piece, but didn’t get as famous as Chess.
Way fuckin better than Adam Pascal. Espen is as close to the real soul of the Chess than any other current singer I've heard. Also Philharmonia is awesome. Where many failed, you kicked ass.
Thanks, glad you liked our rendition! Espen is great :-)

Exelente!!! 👌👏👏👏👏
LEGEND 🔊🎶 HISTORY
COOL
Amazing job! You did a great cover of this great and hilarious tune!
This was not a cover. This was an opening of tge official Chess world tour with Norweigian cast in took place Norway not long ago.

The bass is solid though.
He's good! congrats :)
Anais Amaya yes, absolutely! Thank you for watching!
Epic
We think so too 😉

You can see more from the concert here: ua-cam.com/play/PLrlyIApM_J4xaHmotqY5ccdijmnN_zBoW.html
Thank you so much X
Esta canción tiene sonidos asombrosos y se necesita más o menos 50 personas para acercarse en algo a su sonido original. Excelentes artistas.
Ja, det kommer mer etterhvert (tar litt tid med tillatelser o.l)
Does he do the devil horns with his hand at the end? I hope so, because that’s a great idea for the end of this song.
노래가 좋다
고맙습니다!
Herlig!
Får vi flere klipp fra disse forestillingene? Noe mer med koret, kanskje? ;-)
Does anyone know if the entire concert is available anywhere?
how do we get the full concert?????????????????????
+Richard Johnson here are the videos that we were allowed by the rights holders to publish: ua-cam.com/play/PLrlyIApM_J4xaHmotqY5ccdijmnN_zBoW.html
Strange nobody boot legged it. I have found the 5 official videos. Would love to see the whole production. What an amazing production😀

tonight quasimodo is fight for women in time now again
The orchestra is amazing under Anders' conducting, but the singer is pretty rough.

MAAHOO wolfsair ANT tala
HAHA when that guy popped out I feel I just got rick rolled
They must have had to wake him up. That was an excessively long intro.

I love this song, but it doesn't have an oriental feel to it, befitting a journey in bangkok, instead its more like a Morrocan bazaar
L orchestration est fabuleuse !!! J adore 😍😍mais le chanteur nul a chier🙄🙄🙄
I feel like the strings took liberties. Almost sounded like a BeeGees remake.
I can promise you the strings play exactly what is printed in their sheet music from the composer, I guess you are reacting to how the sound is mixed.
Wow the Ochestra did it great and I love the song ..but the guy in white can't sing this amazing song ..he hasn't a good voice 🤔
I was enjoying the music until the lead vocal began to sing.
Liked the music, the singer , not so much.
Hope you find another version you like.
Great orchestra... needs a different singer... one who isnt majorly overacting to the point where its unbearable... and maybe one who can sing.
Great orchestra but crappy singers.
