This is the side of orchestral concerts that nobody knows exists - when Dudamel and a bunch of Venezuelans get together and play Leonard Bernstein, it becomes a giant party.

Well said Sir . Concerts like this need more exposure to make young people to take an interest in learning to play an instrument , and the general public to attend concerts .

I love the response of the audience

Credo di non aver mai visto e sentito così tanta energia in un'orchestra esplodere in quel sistema. E' davvero incredibile ....Unica.... Grandissimo Dudamel!!!!

The added drumset on this is absolutely stunning

"Mambo" is my favourite piece from WSS anyway, and it's got AMAZING music, but this performance is beyond: so infectious, so amazing, so wonderful. Thanks for making my day!

The word "Classical" is also used to describe a genre and not necessarily a specific time period. For instance, the Brahms Violin Concerto is considered to be "classical" music even though Brahms is very much a Romantic-era composer. The Symphonic Dances from West Side Story are definitely considered to be a standard orchestral work in the classical world. The use of the word in this case does not refer to the Classical era.

@michaelbay8438

The term "classical" is frequently misused by laymen to be understood as anything that is not pop/rap/jazz, but personally for me, I feel like that is a misrepresentation and overgeneralization of music, which has many distinct genres.
