At 2:40, there is a model on the far left that looks strikingly like Conan O'Brien.

I also didn't realise the PotC music plagiarised Gustav Holst's Mars so blatantly.

I loves the Gustav Holst. Excellent post!

I agree with you, lacking a little oomph there. The mediocre quality of flash videos might have something to do with it. But the wind section definitely has some responsibility as well.

How is it that 'the planets' has not been sifted before??
Shame, sifters! SHAME!!!
Jupiter is my favorite piece out of The Planets. But this orchestra has good coordination and precision, but somehow I feel that they lack in volume and resonance.
These Japanese people don't have enough air in their lungs or something... The wind section was bothering the hell out of me the entire clip. You're suppose to portrait the grand mass of the Jupiter, gotta make it BIG, and LOUD, and make it RESONATE.
They keep shortening out after each high dynamic peaks.

interesting.

the music is a barely-altered (slightly more repetitive) version of the "Mars" piece, from Gustav Holst's The Planets.

Brilliant! I loved the side-ies on the officers too.

The tune was "Venus, The Bringer of Peace" from Gustav Holst's The Planets.
