The Thieving Magpie Overture by Rossini

Utah Youth Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Barbara Scowcroft, Libby Gardner Hall at the University of Utah, February 2011

[@robertedwards5184]

There are so many youngsters in this Orchestra. They should be proud of this performance. Bravo. 😆

[@PassionJo777]

Lol that's cuz it's a youth orchestra

[@chuckberger3196]

Absolutely marvelous that these young teenagers could perform so brilliantly. Kudos to the teacher/conductor. Thanks for posting.

[@topsalespro]

I've listened to the Thieving Magpie an infinite number of times and this rendition probably because it was live provided the most versatile, fulfilling performance yet.

[@Burbata]

Michael Safrin and out of tempo many times

[@lebenstraum666]

Yes! Nice to know that the Mormons can do something right for a change.

[@greglongphee2034]

Heartwarming to see so many young people embracing this style of music.

[@PeterBurton50]

A VERY fine performance by some amazingly talented young musicians. Well done all of you.

[@jimjackson7878]

Utah Youth Symphony Orchestra, makes us proud here in Utah.

[@aroim0]

beautiful performance. Many other versions of this are rushed, but the tempo in this was so well- controlled. Bravo!

[@staneads8330]

The tempo was good for a youth orchestra. These young musicians were wonderful, and the conductor was animated and entertaining as well.

[@wolfgangscorpio4125]

Actually, I disagree. I find it too slow. This is ITALIAN. You skip and hop with an Italian temperament. You don't measuredly march like a German.

[@joeherald7319]

I could watch this every day. Such a beautiful piece of music and these sincere young people so proudly and perfectly playing their parts and this conductor who is an elegant example of someone totally enjoying what they are doing in life.

[@joeherald7319]

Hard to imagine how much good life value was brought to these kids by this. This conductor just seems to be joyous and I know she's passed that on to them. I'll bet they are sad when they have to leave this Orchestra. I really don't know anything about her other than what I can see here, which is, a person giving her all and loving every second of it.

[@mariaortiz539]

Put on a dress.

[@joeherald7319]

Help me understand your comment. Is your top-of-mind thought that she should put on a dress?

[@cosmicstar0908]

Wind Up Bird Chronicle brought me here. :)

[@DirkOhde]

Great performance. Love it. 👍

[@triggerfish999]

Having sung in the Herts Youth Choir and accompanied by the Youth Orchestra…back in 1975…when I was 15…I can tell you experiences like this stay with you for the rest of your life (I’m 62 now) They are completely priceless. And this is a great performance of a brilliant bit of music.

[@MisterMelange]

We fillied around for a while with other travelers of the night playing "hogs of the road." Then we headed west, what we were after now was the old surprise visit. That was a real kick and good for laughs and lashings of the old ultra-violence...

[@stevecoleman2250]

What a great movie that was.

[@alijohnstone]

Has to be the perfect music for cooking pasta.

[@drjojo5551]

How about eating a BIG MAC?!?!?! You troll!!!

[@jimjackson7878]

I always thought it would be a spectacular wedding march. A wedding for the star quarterback and his beautiful princess at half time in the middle of a football field.

[@sgasik]

When the phone rang I was in the kitchen, boiling a potful of spaghetti and whistling along with an FM broadcast of the overture to Rossini’s The Thieving Magpie, which has to be the perfect music for cooking pasta.

[@arnoldrimmer9161]

Must've sounded even better being sat there! One of my favourites.

[@theresmorethan1ofme]

it makes me proud to be a sherlockian when i get here and 90% of the comments are Sherlock related. so glad i'm not alone in the world.

[@djwolf12]

The Ultra violence!

[@faithmizzi]

I will be playing this in around a month on the Eb clarinet and i find this to be absolutely wonderful

[@mazza4190]

Such a wonderful, joyous sound.

[@museluvr]

For youth, this is well presented. Well done!!!

[@euqip]

Could anyone love what they're doing more than this woman ? I am mostly unknowing about classical music. Had it not been for "A Clockwork Orange" (1971) I would not know about this work which is now a cherished favorite of mine. The movie was, well...disturbing but, the soundtrack is spot-on genius.

[@richardgiem6404]

Bravo! Well played and conducted.

[@mohammadrezaahmadi4232]

All motives have been performed FLAWLESSLY! Appreciate these cosmic moments!

[@ruthfitch1927]

I love this overture and this orchestra has done it really well - fantastic job! Thank you all. I just keep coming back to this recording; it's so joyful. Love it.

[@Kinjoson]

First time I heard this song was in 1817 in Milan.

[@seanredmond8988]

Are u still around.... Im now only 124....

[@spikespa5208]

Listen to this kind of music and you'll live longer.

[@PassionJo777]

Bravo!!! Great youth orchestra

[@jimmyleano184]

Such a wonderful performance with amazingly young musicians at that ! Bravo !

[@karlfredriknilsen9135]

When doing trivial housework I start this video, but at 3:30 I always stop and dream me back to Napoli. Bravissimo.

[@vilstef6988]

I don't think I've ever seen a Conductor having more fun!

[@_zurr]

Such good stereo in this one, it makes the whole performance feel like you're there. Amazing.

[@balmoraltowers]

That was a very enjoyable Journey, it is brilliant to see young people playing with such passion 🤩🤩

[@ships1111]

Beautiful, really beautiful =)

[@petewkd]

Perfect for cooking pasta!

[@donaldmccormack7580]

Terrific to see an orchestra of many highly talented young adults so obviously enjoying their superb performance. Thank you fpr a most relaxed tempo which definetly added to your listeners enjoyment of the overture.

[@djwolf12]

I had absolute shivers running up my spine listening to this. Awesome.

[@TheTralfaz]

I play timpani and assorted percussion in a regional orchestra and we are going to attempt this in late January next year....Im nuts about this piece

[@petertelford5338]

10+ years on. I hope the students look back at this with pride. I wonder how many went on to play with other orchestras or solo? Not that it is that important but I hope they al kept their skills up as they were evidently the cream of the crop and music warms the soul on any cold night. Very well done indeed.

[@mfredcourtney5876]

Thus is the music they play when I come out of my bedroom every morning!!!😂 Sooo regal.

[@marvicdecastro4895]

Fantastic performance, BRAVO!!!

[@theowlandthepen]

I always listen to this when cooking pasts. The perfect music to cook pasta to

[@alejogomze6512]

tks for this CONCERT. TKS from ITALY, uncle GIANNI

[@michelledorval7215]

Je désire ce concert à chaque fois que j’ouvre soit dans chrome ou KZbin, vous conviendrez que j’ai peine à m’y retrouver dans mes choix musicaux, merci pour votre patience …..❤

[@FAD1953]

As we walked along the flatblock marina, I was calm on the outside, but thinking all the time. So now it was to be Georgie the general, saying what we should do and what not to do, and Dim as his mindless greeding bulldog. But suddenly I viddied that thinking was for the gloopy ones and that the oomny ones use, like, inspiration and what Bog sends. For now it was lovely music that came to my aid. There was a window open with the stereo on and I viddied right at once what to do

[@mattquilibre]

They are playing so slow! And it's making the perfomance sound lovely. With the slow tempo it sound like a march for the King walking in the Throne Room. Excellent!

[@elpsicologocognitivo2315]

It reminded me of A Clockwork Orange jejejeje very good video! Greetings from Argentina Chaco

Bravo ! Greetings from Poland

[@joeherald7319]

I am a number of the 39,012 views. This is wonderful in so many ways. It would be so good to love what you do as much as this conductor does. Also, the violinist... third chair in on the conductors right.(black hair band) This music seems to be immersed in her soul.

[@dick12235]

A real treat: Brain enjoyed it. Thanks.

[@francoamerican111]

I love this performance by this talented bunch of young people. BRAVO!

[@BillSikes.]

Absolutely beautiful,and such a joy to watch the conductor,so much better than the stuffy old guys I usually see on telly

[@jpstenino]

Excellent performance

[@GaioCalvao]

[@tetrisity72]

Such talent in the young musicians

[@blueknows3161]

A splendid performance.

[@raymonheath1436]

Dear Tina - same here. I also really discovered Debussy through Tomita. Now, in later life, I love classical music and have become a singer of religious and operatic music; JC

[@Diddler_ontherough]

Something so uplifting and mischievous about this piece. Love this and Dance of the Hour, a giddy symphonic showcase

[@OscarMaris]

Ren and Stimpy would have brought me here 25 years ago, if youtube existed then.

[@leandromiecznikowski6192]

Esse clássico é um presente, faz todo o desempenho perfeito, fazendo a gente se sentir como se estivesse lá. Surpreendente. Alguém aqui do Brasil?

Bravo for all of them...

[@islaand]

The conductor used sign language in the beginning idk if she did it Bc one of her students is deaf or she’s deaf but if she is and she’s an orchestra conductor that’s amazing

[@lorie932]

Thank you so much!! I really like that part!

[@danae2882]

A billion thumbs up!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@trashcrow]

I love that most of the comments here are from Sherlockians. You are all just... just so great.

[@Varenic]

Very good. But the brilliant brass and flute soloists are practically out of camera.

If Rossini had written symphonies, he might have surpassed Beethoven. Congratulations to this young orchestra for their effort.

I think a magpie just swooped in the open window and stole my diamond ring right off the dresser. Another bauble added to its collection

[@noober98704]

Thank you Anthony Burgess.

[@Diddler_ontherough]

what does Anthony Burgess have to do with it? Kubrick is the one that used this music as a juxtaposition in his adaptation of Burgess's book but there is no mention of the Thieving Magpie in the book.

Rossini was the first great modern entertainer.
