Williams: Olympic Fanfare and Theme (Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra) | Prinsengrachtconcert 2015

[@themadmallard]

remarkable volume from 6 musicians, that opening chorus was so huge it was nearly comparable to the studio recording

[@olivoribl]

Bravo! Great performance! I love these brass players from the RCO orchestra!

The mighty mini edit / radio edit.

EXCELLENT !

[@novaxFLY]

Super sound in sextet. Wish to get notes for quintet ;)

[@Kriskiwi7]

What is the piece in the beginning played by the churchbells?

[@ChrisEchoes]

"Aan de Amsterdamse grachten" (The Canals Of Amsterdam), a classic Dutch 'folk'song which is also always performed in the finale of every Prinsengrachtconcert. Quite a magical moment when the whole audience joins in.

Did it seem a tad rushed? Just a bit.

[@jslasher1]

An odd place to perform this work.

[@kaziiqbal7257]

A lot of orchestras like to open performances with fanfares so it's not out of place at all

jslasher1 I realized you may have been referring to the fact they’re on a boat. Apologies if I misunderstood!

[@BlueYammer]

the trombone's didn't come thru very well

[@trumpetguy13]

BlueYammer Agreed. It was a bit bottomless. Instead of two trombones, I think one bass trombone would’ve been a better way to get that low end power this piece deserves.

[@user-im8gv6eh2y]

@@trumpetguy13 The rightmost one is a bass

[@trumpetguy13]

Masayuki Fujita Ah I see that now. Thank you for pointing it out.

[@StopmotionStudios13]

Might just be the recording. Irl may have been different

@@trumpetguy13 Let's just face it.. It is missing a tuba.
