Steve,
Can you advise a specific description of this. I’d like to find it on Tidal or Qobuz.
Thanks,
Nick
Hi Nick,
I believe the same orchestra also performed this selection. Although not conclusive, the same conductor and same
light brown/reddish hair clarinet player.

Veliki simfonični orkester Gimnazije Kranj je brilijanto izvedel simfonično pesnitev: Vltava Bedřicha Smetane iz cikla Moja domovina (Má vlast). Mladi glasbeniki so izvedli to skladbo v Gallusovi dvorani Cankarjevega doma v razprodani dvorani. S to interpretacijo se je gotovo zapisal v zgodovino najboljših izvedb tega dela vseh časov.

Does this help Nick?
It pleases me so much to see this young group do such a wonderful job playing this piece.
Cheers and great week.

Hi Steve,
The orchestra isn’t on either Tidal or Qobuz, so I just enjoyed the YouTube performances. Thanks for posting.
Nick
Your welcome Nick. That is why I stuck with YT premium. So many more selections and the quality is good enough to obtain
really great sound, although I would like to see YT go high rez.
Here is one you might like, pure percussion.

And this one again to compare recording quality.

Hi Steve,
Normally, a percussion solo wouldn’t interest me very much. But this guy was amazing. Control, dynamics and the sound was amazing. I found a couple of other YouTube Videos by Morten Lund and watched them as well. Thanks for the treat.
Nick
Again, your welcome Nick. I agree this recording is simply amazing. I have to study this selection a little more, but I think this may be the highest quality recording on YT Premium I have ever heard. The cymbals, top hats are so delicate I think I am hearing Heils, the drums, well......
I think I can confidently state that if someone doubts the quality, they need to address their musical system etc.
A few more percussion for those who like such. Each is totally different, and vary in recording quality. A littl e percussion
festival.
