YouTube: Latin Youth Orchestras

Hace unos meses me suscribi en YouTube.com de modo que el webiste encontrara videos con descripciones que incluyeran las palabras "orquesta" y "sinfonica". Aca he escogido algunas orquestas infantiles y juveniles latinoamericanas que he encontrado. Los dos ultimos de Gustavo Dudamel con la Sinfonica Juvenil de Venezuela. La respuesta del publico no le envidia nada a la forma en que el publico respondio a Paul Simon en el Radio City Music Hall...

A couple of months ago I subscribed to YouTube.com, so that the website would find videos with descriptions that include the words "orquesta" and "sinfonica". Here I have chosen some youth and children's orchestras frfom Latin America. The last two clips are of Gustavo Dudamel conducting the Venezuela Youth Symphony. As for the audience cheers, they have nothing to envy compared to the response to Paul Simon at the Radio City Music Hall...
