What, no cowbell?
Seriously Bruce, both beautiful. Totally divergent orchestras playing classic music compositions beautifully!

This is an excellent version but without wanting to distract from it, I post a version with the crystal clear tones of the underrated Mady Mesplé . Normally operatic, she released a fabulous album of Vienese Waltzes in 1975 "Voices Of Spring" which is well worth getting a hold of, if you like this stuff.

@charles-rockett I don't care for the vocal especially the soprano. I prefer watching all the instruments in the orchester, sawing on all the strings and beating the heck out of the drums, etc.

What a wonderful way to start my day Bruce. The William Tell to get my heart going and the Blue Danube to settle it back down. Loved both.

It is interesting how different epochs express different tastes and styles in orchestrating the same, classical works. The Mesplé version is undoubtedly a 'softer' rendition than today's 4X4 style and here's one, softer still, from 1939 - with visuals
