The second violinist looks at the first violinist because she is the concert mistress and the entire orchestra follows her as much as the conductor. That’s what they are supposed to do.
@looney1023 This piece was originally written for the glass harmonica, but it’s an extremely rare instrument. This performance instead uses a celesta (a keyboard instrument that uses metal bars instead of strings), which is most famous as the instrument used in “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” from the Nutcracker suite, and more recently, “Hedwig’s Theme” from the Harry Potter series.
@katinkers: Another “mysterious” piece you should hear is “Neptune” from the Planets suite.
from the list of emotions music is written to encompass, this one i find to be one of the more elusive. it’s sought after for sure, but I’ve yet to hear anything more mysterious than this piece.
is that a glass harmonica?
aaaaah,the favourite one!:)
@fire12321 she’s probably first chair and therefore the lead violinist, so the others have to follow her cues. I’ve noticed the other female violinist looking to her at the beginning of a couple of pieces, right before they are to come in. Most likely taking her (the first violinist) que as when to start.
Listen to Tyrano’s lair from Chrono Trigger. You’ll notice a lot of similarities.
@fire12321 whenever there isn’t a conductor,the musicians tend to look at each others eyes and the way that they move as cues to start or stop playing
@fire12321 ya it must be LOVE… <3
Wow!! Saint-Saëns Aquarium + Sir Roger Moore : is that poetry at its best!
@jackdiver it sounds like the intro to beauty and the beast but its not the same
@fire12321 he was doing her at the time this was recorded
This, in my opinion, is, by far, the best of the Carnival of Animals. This composition stirs something in me that no other music does.
@sophchampion It might sound like it but its not. All music from the Harry Potter films is original composition by John Williams.
@TheYellowQilin I’m sure you’ve figured this out by now, but music (in my own expierience) is the most passionate form of communication. It’s hard not to watch the first violin for me (I’m a cellist)
omg! This is in the Simpsons!
Disney has used this piece in several things.
the 4 people that disliked this must have some kind of mental disease. this is a beautiful piece of music.
@bachismybiddy It was in the Curious Case of Benjamin Button trailer.
@bachismybiddy if not from benjamin button then from beauty and the beast maybe
This song is so beautiful. I can’t help but choke up when I listen to it.
It’s from Harry Potter!
@bachismybiddy u probably remember it from “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”.
@dawg00000 you are an idiot.
roger moore, no way
