Music for a Found Harmonium

[@MJCPeters]

I keep coming back to this one, it always cheers me up.

[@steeler3258]

This was OUTSTANDING! I am a percussionist and a music teacher and I was moved to tears by the musicianship and performance of these kids. BRAVO!!!

[@fashwang99]

I wish there were a little more people out there as enthusiastic about music as those kids are. Awesome job.

[@piperjohn3]

I keep coming back to this video. You can just tell that the kids are enough inspired by the tune and the conductor [music teacher?] to come together, dress up, and make it happen. Ain't nobody telling them to practice, LOL. They certainly all have varying tastes in music, but they all must have agreed this is a killer tune to show off in concert. This should happen more. Well done all, and major shout out to the Conductor. And Oz kids, keep playing, Follow your bliss!

[@BombastusSchmitz]

I know this performance for years - and it still touches me ...

[@rumtumbugger]

Thats the best version by far...the audience don't go wild but it was in an art museum...so the audience were probably a lot more appreciative than their lack of screaming and whistling would have you believe. 11/10 for this!

[@Renken_]

Wow, those guys all look like they are having sooo much fun. Makes me wish I was there playing with them.

[@fashwang99]

back to basics, man. no judgement just music and fun. this video always makes me smile.

[@GingerBisek]

I am so glad I stumbled upon this. I think more than the music (which made my heart sing) I enjoyed the smiles on the musicians' faces. How great to enjoy what one does.

[@Skelly5962]

How awesome! Those folks sure enjoyed playing this great piece of music and it was a thing of beauty to listen to!

[@mapwall]

AWESOME! Inspiring music, expression, teamwork. Wow. Instead of reading in the paper about kids in trouble, we should be learning about kids like this.

[@thehappytimpanist]

This is one of the coolest videos I've seen... When the two guys smile at 1:34 it reminded me of my days back in percussion. The drum beat at 1:35 is so perfectly understated.... i like this sound much more than the metal part at 3:00 but it's still awesome.

[@Famonameio]

Wow. That gave me the chills. Everyone was into it. I used to play in winter drumline and we would have to practice our body language. I played mallets. This was sweet. I was looking for this song, and this was just what I was looking for. Thanks, it was perfect!!

[@Spitflies]

Everything about this performance is simply Amazing. THIS is Music.

[@teadrinker99]

Truely fantastic, such enthusiasm!! So refreshing to see this great piece of music covered in such an original way. Well done to all concerned.

[@moverland01]

Is there a LOVE button? These kids are fantastic!!

[@zambiwee]

that is the best version of this song on u-tube(other than the original) - i love the dynamics of the players

[@norham68]

Absolutely fantastic. Brilliant passion and love for the music and a great reworking. Well done you guys.

[@BestoftheSellers]

This is phenomenal! We just played this piece in orchestra and it was...bleh. But you guys look like you are having so much fun and it was great to watch and listen to! Love it!

[@Johpickfan]

The best thing about it: You all seemed to have a lot of fun! thank you for this awesome performance :)

[@thementdl]

Theese Guys make a very nice show to that wounderful Sound!!! like it!

[@elwin1013]

[@piperjohn3]

This is one of the moments what makes life worth living.

[@ripplesinthefield]

Teamwork! And funky conductor moves!!

[@potkettle]

Yeah me too! Great stuff guys, you just gave me goosebumps! I wonder if Simon's son has seen this.

[@aliwhitwell]

Great music. Thank you!

[@Auberdobberdoo]

Wonderful! That was fantastic!

[@MJCPeters]

I really enjoyed that, great arrangement, and I applaud the instructor! I know these people practiced that a million times, and yet they were still enjoying the performance

[@SirRohan]

Love the energy you put out when you're all playing and composing.

[@chabooga]

[@Spitflies]

This is quite possibly the greatest video on KZbin.

[@surreypasty]

[@CaitlinBrooksMusic]

[@bearoon]

I agree with WhenPaulaSparks - that was wasted on the audience who were so lame! Loved this. Bravo!

[@jonnyswab12]

That was amazing...such enthusiasim...are they hisgh school kids? if so, that is mind boggling...every single one of them is talented. 10 outta 10 in my books! Job Well Done!!

[@kmerwin15]

I love it when the guy and girl in the back sword fight with their mallets. :D That's totally something me and my friends would do!

[@Renken_]

Next performance please!

[@titanicauch]

[@Jan9902]

[@fencerex1]

Love the conductor.

[@twtwtw1]

The BEST version so far on KZbin! How can I get a better sounding recording? You guys looked like you were haveing so much fun. Thank you.

[@StructuralAmbient]

sublime...ty

[@seanmurphy18]

love it x10!!!!!

[@FGMusDept]

More stuff up! Enjoy!

[@guitarmandoguy]

I'm guessing that this took a bit of practice? This was great, wonderful, excellent. I found your version while surfing KZbin on a Sunday morning. What a great find and what a great tune to start a Sunday (or any day). Also, what a great cooperative, sharing ensemble. You can't play this so well without subordinating yourself to such a spirited and spiritual team effort. This is one of those "you gotta see this" KZbin videos I'll be passing around.

[@lummers12dub]

Love this. Great seeing music putting a smile on peoples faces. The girl on the far right is a little beaut as well :)

[@MFidliekowski]

they really have fun to make music :D

[@Krafton]

Lost count of how many times I've shared this now. Piece just sat around amongst pleb caretakers like penguins for years waiting for some bunch of qld schoolkids to arrive and claim "MINE".

[@isra00]

Great!!!

[@weepingeye]

Excellent!! I echo the comments of others in saying I wish I was there also. These dudes are having heaps of fun. Why such a small crowd though? Should be packing out the house!!

[@BedBugAcres]

Nice job!

[@FGMusDept]

you can now purchase the music for this piece at Prepared Sounds dot com

[@Heath75032]

outstanding

[@Dazron]

Brilliance.

[@mikezimmer999]

Professional performance all the way!

[@xtcxtc123]

thankyou simon lives

[@WhenPaulaSparks]

such a great video. that conductor/teacher makes my day! and I can tell those kids really have an appreciation for good music. that being said, that audience's applause seemed a bit weak!

[@dabyd666]

[@DjFutzuka]

I Love u all!!! ale from the far sicily

[@ModeBassTreble]

Super FannnnnnnnnnnnTASTIC

[@thelizart]

[@ErisianLib]

Excellent arrangement - not too sure I like the bass and drum parts, but lots of fun (which to me is what this piece is about).

[@beaver181222]

Absolutely awesome! My school's percussion ensemble played it as well but not nearly as good!

omg, it is wonderfull :)

[@mmacionk2]

You've just killed that music...

[@evanwetzel8397]

Xzylaphone is one of the most underrated musical instruments, most likely because no one can spell it!

[@kaykayboy23]

@kerodean I like the grl closest to the camera..

[@catflapper125]

[@KeroDean]

Yeah, that girl to the furthest right hand side is very cute!

[@jevonharrison5188]

+- AcEFX - GFX - Gaming - True

[@LM1C144]

Nice preformance. Like it. But the guys on the right are cute also

[@qassiry]

If I was the composer, I'd have said to that 9 yr old kid "are you rushing or are you dragging?"

[@Krig42]

Hail from Russland! I'm amazed! Why your group do not yet record Hans Zimmer - "You're So Cool"?

[@samwoah]

Yeah that was some weak applause after a great performance. They totally deserved more.

[@adkumica]

Is that Ron Weasley on the left?

[@chakazoo]

Brrravoooo

[@soapbox187]

what if there sticks broke when they were playing swords *GASP*

[@wsrdtfvb]

@StruanSkye taking a fucking picture
