A YouTube video shows Darth Vader conducting members of the Icelandic Philharmonic Orchestra as they play the "Imperial March" from Star Wars. In the video, Darth Vader approaches from the wings as the orchestra plays, walks up to the conductor and gets him to step down so he can take over. Vader then "conducts" the orchestra through the remainder of the piece, taking a bow to great applause at the end. The video was uploaded to YouTube in October 2009.
