R u crazy?

1. Why would the Berlin Philarmonic play in MUNICH? The local Munich musicians' union would NOT allow it.

2. Those symphonies DON'T actually play at those open-air Winter events. Those winter-nighttime performances are all mimed to pre-recorded music.

3. Nagano's was a daytime event PLUS their classical singers & the Nagano symphony were just piped in from a downtown symphony hall. They were NOT at the outdoor ceremony venue. They will NOT bring out expensive, concert-quality Bosendorfer, Yamaha, Steinway or Fazioli concert grands to an outdoor location except for SUMMER time concerts.

Baron, Whats mean?
I don't understand. :wacko:

Berlin Philharmonic is the world's top three orchestras.
They are the pride of Germany.
So of course must adorn the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics in Munich in 2018.
I expect the best opening ceremony in Olympics history in front of 70,000 live spectators.

Okay, got something really interesting that arrived on You Tube late last year. The very beginning moments of the Moscow Opening Ceremony and the broadcast of the 1980 Moscow Olympics with Australian commentary starting with the Olympic torch coming out of the Moscow town hall and passed onto to the runners. If you recall and noticed what Ikarus posted there, the beginning had that small circle (also appearing here) of the torch relay along Gorky St., with an entourage, as the countdown meanwhile took place at then-Lenin Stadium. Furthermore, there are some differences in the camera shots inside Lenin (now Luhzniki) Stadium compared to what we all saw in the Russian feed. Did the organizers had classical music playing in the PA system up to the countdown. Something tells me that, as 7 being the Aussie broadcaster for Moscow 1980, much of the broadcast crew did their calls in an Adelaide studio, as I remember Sandy Roberts recalling. Surely some of them were in Moscow's IBC like the opening ceremony commentators. This goes up to the Soviet national anthem, though not complete.



Also, remember the LA 84 marching band at the Opening Ceremony? I now got in its entirety the Sydney answer to it. Still have the 2-DVD set of the 2000 Opening Ceremony released in Australia. Hope there will eventually be a Blu-Ray version, but that's more of a rights issue. Those of you who have the DVD set will notice this band ends disc 1 at the 7:47 moment and starts disc 2 with Waltzing Mathilda in progress. Actually it goes to an aerial shot of Stadium Australia with the Olympic graphic of Sydney, Australia to start with. But in the set, it actually omits some music that went on before the LA 1984 John Williams score, and it was Bugler's Dream. Other than all that, the feed is exactly the same like it was on the Seven Network and the DVD. Taken from Germany's Phoenix Network, commentary and all, as it starts to go to the volunteers surrounding the pitch and the lengthy Parade of Nations.

Is that really from the actual OC? I ask because I am surprised that YAMAHA was allowed on the sousaphones? ANd I had also seen footage where the sousaphones were covered. Otherwise, I don't know how YAMAHA was allowed to be seen on the instruments since there is the strict IOC rule that no advertising is allowed on any of the Olympic venues. But again, this is the 3rd instance where a Japanese company has sneaked in its advertising.

#1 - the Sarajevo torch said "Misuno"
#2 - I believe the blimp in LA brazenly said FUJI FILM (technically, it was not a stationary part of a venue)
#3 - this one? and
#4 - the big jumbotron screen in Athens also brazenly said "Panasonic"

I wonder if YAMAHA was an Official Sydney sponsor or not. And if not, therefore was exempt from the IOC rule and as such did not need to hide its corporate name.

I guess the IOC will make exceptions for certain parties.

Of course it is. It's the original broadcast of the German network ARD and I remember seeing the Yamaha imprints on the instruments as well. What you saw with the imprints covered must have been some footage which was "censored" later. Or those were only particular instruments, while they forgot to cover the imprints on the rest of the instruments.

The whole cultural part is dedicated to the Earthquake/Tsunami.
