Steven, I dug the Blue Danube, too, but I do have to say that this kind of treatment doesn't always fly. If you listen the the Eine kleine Nachtmusik arrangement by the same pianist/leader (and I don't suggest doing this if you expect to enjoy what you hear) you will hear something so extremely awkward and lifeless as to be too painful to watch all the way through (for me). This is the exact opposite of what makes the other tunes so enjoyable and "kickass" (my thanks and all credit to John M.).
You win some, you lose some. That's life.

Ha Ha!? I like it!!? I especially like the Blue Danube.? I'm guessing the name Hoved?en Social Club is a comment on the Buena Vista Social Club.? The other name, Kringkastingsorkesteret (KORK), I don't know, Klaus I think you're our only hope for that one.? Honestly, I think the orchestra gets the style better than most American orchestras would.? You can find that cimbasso player on some other videos if you look around YouTube.? It probably doesn't work in some places for copyright reasons because it's been released on Sony Mexico.? ??? PS, how 'bout that tonquing?
