THIS CLIP
Rainer Hersch, 'the funniest conductor alive' with his Orkestra, live on UK prime time TV in 2000. Rainer and team play the 'Ode to Joy' theme from Beethoven's 9th Symphony (The 'Choral') op.125 in D Minor. The notes they are playing appear in this form in the original score but were not, of course, intended to be played on a children's toy. The Stylophone https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stylophone was manufactured by Dubreq, and first went on sale in 1968. It was relaunched with a digital copy, the Dubreq Stylophone S-1 in 2007. Subsequently other models were added, including the Dubreq Stylphone Gen X-1 and the Dubreq Stylophone Gen R-8. The Stylphones Rainer and his Orkestra are using are 'original instruments', which had been collected by Rainer and dated from the 1970s.

This is one of the Rainer Hersch Orkestra's first TV appearances. Originally seven instruments, it is now composed of violins, violas, cellos, double bass, clarinet, French horn, piano and percussion. They play live and tour, particularly in the UK and Germany. Together, they create the funniest classical music on the web. Check them out on YouTube and at www.rainerhersch.com/orkestra. Please subscribe to this channel and spread the word. THANKS!
