As with all his other compositions, Leroy Anderson wrote The Typewriter for orchestra, completing the work on October 9, 1950. This particular orchestration was performed in a June 12, 2011 concert by members of the National Orchestra and Chorus of Spain in Madrid. The (typewriter) soloist is Alfredo Anaya. Watch his expressions and actions throughout the video...wonderful ! Many of the younger crowd who may see this video wont remember the old typewriter. But us geezers remember it well. That was a long time ago. You will find this rendition absolutely delightful. If you arent at least smiling at the end, you REALLY MUST BE HAVING A VERY BAD DAY ! This is for all the ancients who remember what a typewriter was! click here... youtube/watch_popup?v=G4nX0Xrn-wo&sns=em
