    Well, unless they decide to play Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez...

    I heard that the tract about Symphonie Phantastique has a small reference about conducting. Have anyone come across it?

    It's been a over a year since Rojo started this thread. Guess it's time to see how it all worked out for the Youtube Symphony Orchestra. Here's one of their clips:

    Sounds acceptable to me. Must be challenging to have people from so many different countries in same orchestra.

    Say, that's not bad at all. Congrats to the group.

    Thanks for updating us, Mat.

All options in between would be herewith ok as well - so everybody gets an opportunity to do whatever he wants, and all are happy and smiling.))))

    @Mat, I'm great! Thanks! Somebody was asking a friend request at Facebook and when I saw his profile I figured he saw me here...that's how I got back. I missed you all!

    Well considering they are not like a regular orchestra, it is very good. They have done well to get together and perform.
