Conductor maestro Nejc Bečan has a strong energetic style.

[@kennethpack1963]

Nejc Becan is one of the best conductors I have ever seen,

[@Nello353]

Absolutely brilliant !

This orchestra and conductor are as good or better than most orchestras that exist and they are so young!

[@wodz5762]

Great. Absolutely great.

[@alfredogomez5241]

These young musicians are so good is unbelievable. They are better than many established orchestras. The conductor is also amazing. He extracts every inch of quality from them.

Even though I was a rock and roller, I discovered a love for classical music in my teens. This orchestra and conductor are fabulous. When they play Dvorak or Smetana I Just close my eyes and let it flow right in. The pace and tempo seems just perfect for such young and talented musicians. There is hope for this world with people like these in it.

[@alfredogomez5241]

Maybe classical music will continue forever with young people like them

I bet this ouverture is the top one. Absolutely genius. Even though there are such masterpieces as Egmont, Hebrides and Easter Ouverture. And the performance is just brilliant! If only ppl could hold their coughs...

[@ChrisSmith-fk3ru]

Absolutely Breathtaking!! Maestro Nejc Becan is a brilliant conductor! It's like he absorbs the music and transmits its power and passion to the orchestra! His style, grace and dignity is a joy to watch. Bravo Maestro and Orchestra!

[@rosalimonteiro8806]

Maravilhoso!!! Parabéns aos músicos e o Regente! Gratidão.

[@zabramss]

I believe, Chris Smith, you have hit the hammer right on top of the nail. I see his face contort with the strain of that transmission and he points his wand at the different parts of the orchestra, having memorized the piece, knowing what comes next. I love your description. Bravo to you, Mr. Smith, for being so right on!!

[@robjenhen]

Just listened to it again for the 5th time and find it just as exciting as the first, Bravo!

[@toddjames3372]

wow... just wow. Absolutely moving performance !!! Bravo

[@clemrumley9691]

OMG what a performance by these young kids. I remember so much studying this piece for my music exam way back...

[@christopherjones8168]

Am still listening to this piece 5 years after I first found this video on KZbin and still love it as much.

[@billginnj6595]

I never tire of listening to this fantastic orchestra. And, through the years, I admire the growing maturity of these performers, the conductor and their musical excellence!!

[@kennethohagan3155]

This is a wonderful young orchestra who can only get better and better with experience, what a wonderful prospect for the future of their concerts!!

[@markhughes7927]

Endlessly and easily rolls through the spirit - this piece. Thanks Pyotr Ilych - and friends - you brought such a jewel into the world.

[@majorphil]

These young people are magnificent - Bravo from Texas in the USA

[@davidcantwell2489]

Well... It would seem that Zevnikov has a lot of admirers here in Texas As an old west Texas oilfield hand kind of makes me proud. Excellent performance as always. Thank you.

[@donbenedik1277]

Pure love!

[@mr.m7014]

I love it! Nadja is the star inside all other stars. I get drunk every time I see this wonderful Orchestra because of their buddy languages speaking with their instruments and feel the notes in their pure impressions. Bravo all of you:)

[@simontig]

Super performance. Truly amazed how these youngsters can play with such passion and maturity!

[@tracer740]

Yes, we benefit from their obvious mastery and commitment.

[@elizabethschaeffer9543]

Everything in the introduction above is true! I can't say it better, but it does need to be said! They are a world treasure. I mean that sincerely. An inspiration. Many thanks to all!

[@keithm1812]

This orchestra and conductor are phenominal!

[@elizabethschaeffer9543]

You are so very right! You speak for me too. A footnote--the conductor is a very snappy dresser.

[@boondoggle6]

An expressive and warmly intense performance that one can return to again and again with renewed enjoyment. Nejc Becan gives us an extraordinary emotional range which reveals this talented orchestra at the height of its many achievements.

[@chuckmortensen6327]

Absolutely beautiful. My favorite symphonic work.

[@jennifermorrison9923]

Un grande el Maestro Nejc Becan!! Magnificas obras abordadas, siempre con gran ductilidad y talento!!

[@coolabah-blue]

Beautiful!🙏🏻

[@kirsteni.russell5903]

This performance is so moving, it reminds me of my childhood experience of reading the Classics Illustrated comic book of Shakespeare's ROMEO AND JULIET while listening to a record of this work. Tchaikovsky's fantasy overture was the first music I associated with the story, and seeing the overture performed here makes me cry for Romeo and Juliet, who, "with their death bury their parents' strife."

[@peterallen2904]

Simply, simply beautiful I have tears in my eyes at the sheer beauty of this piece. I just love this orchestra. It equals, in my opinion, some of the best in the world.

[@iDrifter]

A marvelous performance from an outstanding youth orchestra! Bravo!!

[@celsojunqueira4763]

Essa rapaziada eslovena é simplesmente fantástica! Não me canso de ouvi-los. Subo na cadeira para aplaudi-los!! Parabéns ao maestro Becan!!

[@rattywoof5259]

Great performance - kudos also to the video and sound engineers who did their jobs equally well.

[@michaeljames9122]

Hello again from an admirer in Texas, USA. While watching this excellent performance of the Romeo and Juliet Overture I noticed two notable instances of orchestra members appreciating the beauty of the music as they played. One, the lead flute beginning at 17:48 is playing beautifully at a particularly emotional part of the score. If you continue watching as she plays, at 17:57 she visibly reacts to the beauty of the chord change by a slight lift of the left shoulder and her eyes close. Beautiful and inspiring. The other is the second chair first violinist who's face lights up at the last note! Just lovely!

[@ronseaberg2262]

Wow... Cheers

[@jerrycallison6125]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I had much rather hear these young people perform than nearly any professional orchestra on earth. There are very few orchestras playing and very few maestros conducting with the verve and intensity of these students and their faculty. Others have commented on the appreciation of the beauty of the music, and I must whole-heartedly agree. "Between Heaven and earth" is indeed appropriate for this concert. Thank you so much! (I thought I had heard all of your videos. What a pleasant surprise when this one popped up!)

[@ronseaberg2262]

Yes... Truly Spiritual... Blessings and Cheers

[@marcvaliquette1189]

I thought I have heard everything before, but now, I am already addicted to your orchestra. Truly world class. Bravo!

I love KZbin for classical. I just wish KZbin would let the videos just play out instead of interrupting them with ads. But, I shall be looking for this fine young orchestra in more of my music searches from now on. Job job(!), you young people!

A conductors work in done in rehearsal. During a performance, he just dances in time with the orchestra. This conductor is a great dancer. Right up there with Bernstein

[@cluckoothechicken5721]

So you're saying a conductor isn't necessary?

[@1106gary]

@@cluckoothechicken5721 I said nothing of the sort. I said the conductor does his work in rehearsal long before the audience gets there. When the conductor points and the cymbals crash and exactly the same time in the performance. It is because it was worked out weeks in advance. It is not because the cymbal player had the time to react the pointing during the performance. Having said that -Toscanini's orchestra played for years after his death with the concert master giving the downbeat and then sitting down with no one on the podium.

[@SCBariTone]

Masterful playing! Such feeling and expression. The orchestra's attention to sensitivity in dynamics is particularly noteworthy. Bravo!

[@williamford9564]

This is the second piece from this orchestra that I have seen( the other being Orpheus in Hades) and I love their work. The wind section in particular is fantastic and the conductor is high energy and really guides the musicians through the ebbs and flows of the music. I liked the camera showing the harpist who is often not shown in other productions.

[@timkrueger4947]

I am coming late to this video but I agree with all the positive comments. I am enjoying it a lot. As for the timpani roll at the end, I agree that it ends with a quarter note at the beginning of the last measure and there is a prolonged whole note or final chord for others. But I liked the ending as they played it.

[@j.l.callison1837]

Does not sound like a youth orchestra. I've hear professional orchestras that don't have the cohesion, the tone, or the verve of this group. Perhaps it is because of the excitement of performing that has become commonplace to more professional groups. I can't say, but I can say I find this orchestra to be superb.

I'm searching from time to time different classical pieces from different orchestras on KZbin now. Apparently, after 2020 they are in abundance here. However, it's always a joy when I search for the peace and see it on your channel, watched by me some time ago. Because, well, there are a lot of brilliant orchestras around the world and I cannot specify the best: different conductors make different music their own best. But there's one sure thing: your video editing and audio quality are by far ahead of almost everyone else! Even though yours are almost ten years older :) Such a great work!
