The clapping is traditional. The story is that when Austrian army officers first heard this, written after a military victory, they spontaneously clapped along to this rousing part of the march, and people have been doing it ever since. It's a nice tradition, but it shouldn't drown out the voices or piano.
They are being told/instructed by the boys themselves to clap. The clapping in this particular song is a tradition, this song never goes without clapping. :)
I have always loved the way the VBC has dual excellence in singing and playing musical instruments. Especially the part where the boy is playing a drum in this video and the choir is singing to the Radetzky March. All I got to say is well done. The Radetzky March is one of my favorite singing songs by the VBC.
Nou dan heb je nog niet veel gehoord van het koor als dit jou favoriete song is. Een ding is wel correct en zeker,, Het is tevens een van de moeilijkste liederen om het (goed) te leren. De VBC/WSK is ook van de weinigen koren ter wereld die het haast perfect zingt ((( (ligt per jaar verschillend welk koor het zingt er zijn er 4, soms zingen 4 koren het samen en dan is het verre uit het beste om het aan te horen))). Ik wil u niet afkatten van uw gemaakte opmerking maar het viel mij meteen op / Misschien om dat ik wat hogere eisen stel omtrent dit koor. groeten uit Nederland/Den Haag. translated for you sat or sun o.k.? bye
The translation special for you ------------------------------------------------------- Well then you haven't heard much of the chorus like this all you favorite song is. One thing is sure, the Radetzky Marsch correctly and it is also one of the most difficult songs by the choir to learn it (good). The Vienna Boys Choir/ Wiener Sängerknaben is also of the few choirs in the world that it is almost perfect sings. It differed each year than how it sounds, what the choir sings, there are 4 as you will know, sometimes singing 4 choirs it together (e.g. with the new year concert then I find it far from the best to hear). I do not want to afkatten your made note but it struck me at once on the word "bookmark"/maybe to that I what higher requirements set on this choir. That is why I responded to your comment, greetings from Netherlands, the Hague. Tip! It is convenient to have a translator to install in your browser e.g. (Bing / Grome it’s free en good) 99% of PC users has it installed by default translate this cost me more than 2 hours Also you wrote the word Radetzky March wrong some also with translate the month March translated CH instead of SCH It's Radetzky Marsch
Marsch is the German spelling of march. Much of English has been derived and altered from German. One good example is Fisch (Ger); fish (Eng). I rest my case.
thanks for that explanation, didn't know that. Still found it annoying when I was visiting Vienna this spring-acutally got to listen to a concert of the philharmonics and could hardly hear anything because of that clapping...
@paullincke195161 WSK-Mozartchor unter Raoul Gehringer. Aktuelle Aufnahmen vom Mozartchor 2010 auf dem channel von treblefan77...:) Außerdem hat der Chor sich mit "wskmozartchor" inzwischen einen eigenen channel auf YT zugelegt, war und ist für mich eine Sensation !
Yes, that shouldn't happen. If you watch the lead singer he is giving the audience clues as to how loudly or softly they should be clapping. (After 200 years, you can't stop them.) By and large they are doing what he suggests, I think the main problem is the poor recording.
@@andreapradelli5964 that's not the proper lyrics what do you think s kids choir singing about the Army exetra, the Vienna boys choir usually makes there own version of songs
Das Video habe ich inzwischen an alle Freunde gesandt - pauschal - auch an Freunde, die sich nicht für Knabenchöre interessieren... Die sollten den Zugang dann sofort löschen...:)
Somebody tell me what do they sing. I cannot understand a word. I heard popular text for this was something like " Radetzky, Radetzky, he was a great man, he fed soldiers potatoes, the meet that he snarf himself!" Please correct me.
Walter Esterl It's Radetzky Marsch not March Entirely correct Walter I personally find it a sloppy error from people who speak and write standard English. I myself am a Dutchman and me is it for years on I'll often against this error Even on Lp's Cd's comes this stupid issue is not often for very sloppy so. Hopefully understand the people of all these comments on this page that make a mistake is not a disaster, but this kind of error put me thinking, it is crazy for be just that this is a world problem, and nothing done in schools is incomprehensible to me.

lightful beautiful voices are making much honners for you,listners and your countries with warmy show stages. While this 2012 tour,please everybody keep mass and tie with all mates ,without solo actions or a few member actions in nights,too. Private things,everyboy must use washing flow in a toilet--strong promissing for keeping management by each self.Keep respect each others.Never sale mates and own damages in even black hair colours Be good japan tour!Japan is fashizm,take care!
These men are spectacular. To those that 👎🏾 them, let's see you do better. These boys are a gift.
Maybe it's less the boys' quality but the video quality which is driving dislikes.
I hope I will never tire of listening to the Vienna Boys Choir!

Vienna Boys Choir, is still the best children choir in the World.
Great version of the "Radetzky March" by WSK.
En mi país, Chile, este himno se usa para la parada militar del 19 de septiembre.
鳥肌が立つほど素晴らしい合唱❗️
the with one word most famouse boys in the world, Austria be proud of them !
Wunderbar!
Ottima esecuzione!
...in November 2006 the choir was in Northern Germany...:)

from romania: WONDERBAR!
Does anyone know what they are singing? I'm familiar with the march, but not the lyrics. Extra internet points for an English translation as well. :D
The Radesky March It is From Strauss a Famous Austrian family from the 1800s
Sean Fabien I was wondering what the lyrics where?

Radetzky march
The Japanese must be the only people to actually obey the clapping instructions... (and i mean that the GOOD way)
It's great
Die Trommel am Anfang hat Stil :D
nice !
HERMOSO... LIKE
coool
danke
The lyrics of the song, please.
wat zou ik blij geweest zijn als ik dat 50jaar geleden dit allemaal binnen handbereik had kunnen hebben. Zijn wij dan toch te vroeg geboren?
Jawel Marcel, dat heb ik dikwijls gedacht. Maar mischien waren wij te veel huis en streek gebonden zonder T.V.
en internet

Spetacle

Yes to a certain extent but what lovely voices.Maybe too much clapping?
Austria felix et catholica !
That mindless clapping really gets on my nerves

Don’t listen then. Tune your radio to Top 40.

It's Radetzky Marsch not March
Versteh kein Wort
Listen to the music.
Impossible to watch, so off the video and sound
Before you start judging others, you better make sure your perfect.
+Marni Westney are you saying the video and the sound is in sync? Don't you see it is not in sync?
+Artur H sorry I was just watching and listening to the boys. It all sounded well. Only cause I don't know about that stuff. So, good on you.
