If I ever walk into a bar and hear this, I'm never leaving

[vangavrish]

But man, not only the sax guy is rocking hard, just listen to that tubist - believe me, playing tuba so freakin fast is no joke! Credits to the whole orchestra!

[davidmickelson]

does anybody else feel like the sax guy's hair fits him perfectly???

[AmbroseBoaBowie]

When I was younger I used to think “It’s a shame we can never hear this song outside of the Star Wars movie because we don’t have the instruments invented yet to play the song” it wasn’t till I was like 10, But I remembered it was a movie and Real instruments had to be used to make it in the first place

That conductor looks like hes having the time of his life, like a child finally having the stuff they wanted.

[latte]

That sax... holy cow! Amazing is an understatement. He’s playing this like it’s nothing. He’s an absolute beast.

[oioiizmailove]

They took it so seriously that the presenter even learned the tatooine language

[Idazmi]

No Greedo in here. Not after that SOLO.

[Archivist]

Mos Eisley Operahouse. You’ll never find a more cultured hive of music and vibes. We must make haste, Luke. Would be a shame to miss the concert.

“How many different types of percussion do you want?”
Danish National symphony orchestra:“Yes”

[Jeragon]

How can they ignore all those off-beat clapping?

[dm_camp]

I love it when you’re playing something fun and groovy and the audience doesn’t clap on the right beat

[randomdude]

Imagine how respected this song would be if it wasn’t made for a movie. Unfortunately it’s just for the most truly cultured members of society that get to get to enjoy this masterpiece

[wyattcrum]

Who knew Richard Hammond could play the saxophone so well

[pianomz]

3:30 Me trying to impress girls with my dancing skills in the club.. :D

[lennartschulz]

That is by far the happiest looking orchestra I've ever ever seen!

[RaistlinMajeren]

Translation of the intro:
They have really worked hard. They are going home now... Or... They are musicians, so... HA! They will go all night. They shall go out now to the city (read: to party), and I think what will happen is that they wander in some place, meet some other aliens, and if you give them a drink they might play something for you, it may sound a bit different, there is a cantina down here...

[oscarsalinastjv]

Isn't anyone going to talk about how good the tuba sounds?

[yourdailycupofcrazy]

I'm in a 7th grade band and we are playing

[bigbob]

When the band has fun, the music is GREAT!!!
