What is really amazing is Sharon bouncing around on stage after singing for two and a half hours. The woman is the Energizer bunny. She has a beautiful delicate voice. You should do the duet "Somewhere" from this concert that she did with Anneke van Giersbergen (the Queen of Dutch Metal) because it is amazing.

When Status Quo invited a part orchestra to join them on an acoustic set, the band members said it scared the f*** out of them. Firstly, many songs had to be written with a different tempo. Then all music had to written down with notes. They said, that on an electric set, they play to the beat of the drummer and rhythm guitarist, but with an orchestra, if they missed a bit, the orchestra would march on regardless. Highly recommend you watch Night of the Proms, on KZbin. Each year, rock and metal bands in London, play with a full orchestra, and almost every time the orchestra looked as bored as shite. When Status Quo played Night of the Proms, and did Rocking All Over the World and Whatever You Want, the whole orchestra (the London or National Philharmonic ?) got so totally into it, you could clearly see their immense enjoyment on their faces. They had around 100,000 in the audience, and it was one huge party. At first, the orchestra let the band play, but by the second verse it became a competition who could play the loudest. Final score: 2:0 to the orchestra !! Despite walls of amplifiers, when the brass and woodwind sections kicked in, they drowned the band ! It was so hilarious. Much respect to the orchestra. I think with Within Temptation, they have a conductor, to merge the two genres.

How many people have to tell you to watch "Somewhere" from this band and orchestra ? It will remind you a little of the duet Floor Jansen did with Epica. (All four are Dutch singers by the way)
@vicsams44312 жыл бұрын
When Status Quo added a full orchestra on occasions, they had to provide the "professional musicians that can read music (Francis Rossi's own words) with sheet music" so the brass, woodwind, drums, strings etc. knew when to come in. Here with Within Temptation, the orchestra has a conductor, and Sharon gives ques with her hand gestures, if you watch carefully. In the band Queen, the late Freddie Mercury, used to give hand signals too, to Roger Taylor and the gang when to stop playing, so that everyone stopped together and not out of sync. Usually in a conventional rock band, the members all knew the tune, it is well-rehearsed, and the drummer and bass guitar do the beat. Hope that helps.

I was there, great memory, went all the way with a big dress , hoop and wig, makeup the whole shaboom. It's even the other way around , not that long ago the orchestra asked the public which fusion they wanted , I don't remember what band made it, but Ayreon was second. I don't know if you know something about Night of the Proms or is this a European thing. Saw meatloaf with a great orchestra and of course mister Music is my first love, John Miles who is always there.

Some musicians are enthused, others get disdainful, but they all like the paycheque. In this case, the conductor approached the group with the idea, so I assume the orchestra was on board. Then the conductor usually creates a score by listening to the songs. maybe collaborating with the person who did the arranging in the group. Then the orchestra will probably have a run through of the piece, then they have a dress rehearsal the day before with the band. You basically ignore what is going on, and just concentrate on the conductor
@ronaldderooij17743 жыл бұрын
But who pays for the orchestra? Within Temptation? Or is it a percentage of the ticket sale? I have no idea how that is arranged. By the way, I would have a hard time reading the music and keeping an eye on the conductor and still play flawlessly. Whatever instrument (I played trumpet in my youth).

This song was made for crowd participation! Glad you're on this WT ride. I've played in a concert band, like an orchestra but with more woodwind instruments rather than strings, (clarinets in place of violins) and there are pre-written arrangements for a great deal of music for such bands. We played with a Fleetwood Mac cover band and a Beatles cover band. Bands like WT, Epica or Nightwish often write "orchestral arrangements" for the many voices of a synthsizer (or three!) - although Tuomas and Mark Jansen, for example, prefer real orchestras! Bands pay extra to be allowed to confetti a venue - to cover the clean up costs! There is a great fan-made clip for WT's "Let Us Burn" kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3Wlpnyep5Z8mpY

There is definitely a other way we (Dutch) approach promises. If someone promises something it is not only what you promise, how and the quality you bring your promises alive is very important. I think that this more a European approach. Belgiums and Germans are very strong in this as well. Furthermore, technical abilities are exploited to the maximum. The metropole orchestra is extremely capable in everything the are involved in. I have seen them in combination with Steve Vai, “exceptional in excellence!” Doesn’t care if it it your taste of music, simple extraordinary.

I think at every venue they play they get professional orchestra people to come play. Which in itself must be super difficult. Rehearsal, especially when on tour is IMO impossible. If you only play one venue for a week or something then it can work, changing the orchestra every new place you visit will be difficult.

Highly combustible, the stiff Dutch people get very worked up when a massive party can be held. No matter if it is music, a guy swimming for 200 km or speedskating, soccer tournament, a Formula 1 race, the Eurovision song contest, whatever. So that is also true for ochestra's. They like the performance, the atmosphere. Maybe even better than when they are playing classical music (what they also do to perfection, by the way).
