Dreaming of Rachmaninov on a Train

Post by NP317 »

This link takes you to the most unusual music video: Classical music and steam trains.
https://www.npr.org/sections/deceptivec ... on-a-train

It is superbly crafted and coordinated for a major German record label. Amazing.
Hopefully the NPR.org link will remain available for a while.
Enjoy.

I just tried that link and it still works. I just had to wait for the video to load.

Thanks, I forwarded this on to my musically inclined grownup kids, one of whom is a music teacher.
Nice video.

For those that do not know, that was filmed on the Cumbers and Toltec. The conductor really works there.
