When orchestras surprise conductors on their birthday, and their reactions are even better than the music...
Bravo to the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, SWR Symphonie and Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, for their excellent musicianship and thoughtful music-making.

The fact that they not only put Happy Birthday into Eroica pretty seamlessly and then further announced it by giving each section a moment personally in the song? Give 'em a medal. What a wonderful orchestra! WHAT LOVE AND RESPECT!!

The second one was absolutely fantastic! The whole orchestra must have come together in secret to practice that without the presence of the conductor!

Not necessarily. Assuming they were handed parts and possibly with instructions where to specifically bring out the birthday theme (probably don’t even need that, as the rhythm of it is easily recognizable), they could have easily just sight read this. It is just the original piece with some added/edited bits. A nice surprise and a fun listen, though!

The look on the conductor's face at 1:17 when he realised that, yes they were playing happy birthday was my favourite part. Not to mention the effort that must have gone into that mash up.

These made me cry. I watched several times and cried each time. I remember my junior high and high school band teachers with such fondness and I know part of my emotions is from remembering those happy times more than forty years ago. _(Thank you, Mr James Wonnocott and Mr Kenneth Mehalko. I didn't know then just how profoundly those years would count as some of the very happiest memories of my school years. You two are two of the very best teachers I had in all my school years, and I thank you so very much.)_

These conductors seem to be very appreciated by "their" orchestra. I once was part of a junior orchestra in music conservatoire when I was 15y-o. The conductor was screaming at us all the time, he made me quit violin studies. Unfortunately, I keep very bad memories about this stressful experience. I'm glad it is not the case for everybody! music is such a wonderful thing!
