I love Bernstein. ... ( 3 weeks ago by powellpicc1985)
I love Bernstein. It's so interesting that nearly all of the famous conductors in the world are completely textbook WRONG in their pattern and style, yet somehow manage to make it work so well.
1) LOVE the mallet ... ( 3 weeks ago by 21stCenturyBOTHERInc)
1) LOVE the mallet percussion! I'm doing xylophones at the moment in band and I love really fast passages
2) His method of conducting is really interesting. It seems to vary from conductor to conductor, but his by far is my favourite :)

I love this piece.. ... ( 3 weeks ago by powellpicc1985)
I love this piece... my high school band played this the year before I moved up to the top ensemble, my college orchestra played it the year after I transferred, the community/church wind ensemble I was with played it the year after I left that group, and then the wind ensemble at the school I transferred to just played it yesterday...in my first semester NOT in ensemble (I'm finished with the credits).
Seriously? I am NEVER meant to play this piece. I've come to that conclusion.

it's an overture of an operetta called Candide, you can search on youtube for other selections of the opera the operetta is in turn based on a book written in the 1600's by Voltaire

Yes greatest in the History, but may be in the history of a provincial rustic band. NOT IN THE SAME HISTORY OF MOZART AND BEETHOVEN PLEASE. NOT IN THE HISTORY OF JAZZ PLEASE. NOT IN THE HISTORY OF SOUNDTRACKS PLEAS. NOT IN THE HISTORY OF POP MUSIC PLEASE. NOT IN THE HISTORY OF ROCK PLEASE.

I wish I had Leonard Bernstein as my conductor. He just seems like so much fun to work with. ^.^ I love his "dancing."
My school's WE played this last year. It was a lot of fun, especially for clarinets. ^.

that guy playing horn at 2:55 is awesome. french horn is awesome. im just started playing it about 1 or 2 months ago in my school band
Rustic band? This ... ( 1 week ago by Sinfoniahorn)
Rustic band? This is written for orchestra. It has nothing to do with rock or pop music. You could argue that Bernstein has some jazz influence, but this is an overture. Its nice, and catchy, which is what an overture is suppose to do. People think way too hard about it.
I don't like this ... ( 1 week ago by bondman24)
I don't like this rendition at all. Both the composer's recordings (in LA and NY) provide much better playing and much more excitement).

The character ... ( 1 week ago by violinista53)
The character Candide is supposed to be kind of a simpleton, is he not?
It's a deceptive simplicity, though. I have to question whether ad80ad has ever played or done score study of this piece to know the complexity of the crossrhythms and abruptly shifting tempi.
