    Absolutely beautiful. It may have been introduced as rock and roll but he poured his heart and soul into this when he wrote it. I've never heard this played by a full orchestra before. I only wish my wife were alive to hear it. She loved this piece of music. In my home opinion this will one day grow to be a symphonic masterpiece. And demonstrated here, it certainly proved that it belongs in a category all its own. Bravo.

    I always wondered how that would have sounded via orchestration. It was not disappointing. Amazingly well done.

    I love how this has been translated into an orchestral piece - the vocals Queen uses lends so nicely to this form. And I love the viola for something different - it has such a beautiful mellow sound which can also be very powerful!

    Hermoso. The Queen unió en esta magistral melodía el rock con la ópera. Ver interpretar a una sinfónica este clásico contemporáneo, la hace magistral. Bien ganados los 4 Oscares 2019.

    I like it... but certain parts of it feel a bit rushed. Kinda wish they would have tried a bit less to mimic the percussion from the original song and slowed the rock portion of the song down to something more resembling of a march.

    False harmonics - notate the pitch you want 2 octaves down, plus a diamond notehead a perfect fourth above. Check out the wikipedia page on artificial harmonics, it's got a good example.

    For such a Advanced sounding piece , all the sharps and flats, quite amazing, but what really gives the Flavor is one might call it , was the Splendid Violist, i myself, thought it was lovely,although i am just one person, anyone with fine taste could see, although, I myself was over joyed before watching this because I myself Play the Viola, I'd like to compliment the Intonation of everyone at all times, lost of practice must have gone into this piece indeed.Good Job.

  • @NickJonesMusicOFFICIAL
    @NickJonesMusicOFFICIAL 11 років тому

    in the orchestra as you hear them? they are as Mr Hersh said false harmonics but with a gliss between the G and F. However with this sliding sound, it doesn't really replicate how the original song by Queen would sound, but a great 'stylistic' idea, but I would just interpret the whole step up Bb D F Bb G, F, all in pizzicato, keep it very sparse.

    I like this 100% better than the studio version. Feels a lot more real. Much more like a performance and less "staged". Sometimes, it's the small imperfections that creates "the moment" you'll remember all your life.
