Ha Ha! I like it!! I especially like the Blue Danube. I'm guessing the name Hovedøen Social Club is a comment on the Buena Vista Social Club. The other name, Kringkastingsorkesteret (KORK), I don't know, Klaus I think you're our only hope for that one. Honestly, I think the orchestra gets the style better than most American orchestras would. You can find that cimbasso player on some other videos if you look around YouTube. It probably doesn't work in some places for copyright reasons because it's been released on Sony Mexico. PS, how 'bout that tonquing?

If you are geezer enough, you will instantly flash on Walter Murphy's Fifth of Beethoven when you see this. If not, it really doesn't matter. What I am particularly curious about, though, is what appears to be some sort of vertical bass or contrabass valve trombone (maybe a cimbasso - Klaus, what say you?) that is featured several times. http://youtu.be/3_sSnLmJN78 It also strikes me as kind of amusing to watch a Norwegian orchestra with numerous Asian, Latino and Afro members playing this piece of pseudo salsa (and I am not just referring to the extra percussion players). I know that we have had many discourses on this list on the loss of national sound and style in orchestras nowadays. I think this is kind of an illustration that it is beyond discussion at this point.
