Beautiful and inspiring music, especially for times like these. I love the end of this film when the aerial view of the liberation of Paris in black and white turns to color and the city is still there.
Yes it is I have the cd to Is Paris Burning and I have the movie, I know from history and WW@ that the movie is based on a true story but I wonder how much the movie embellish, I have been trying to find on Amazon the true story to the French Resistance fighters who fought to liberate Paris out of the hands of the Nazis but no such luck so far
on parle toujours d ' une musique de Film pour accompagner un Film ... Ici on a un film pour accompagner une Musique ! Bravo à ce grand orchestre qui a su nous faire revivre cet immense Chef d ' Œuvre !
I love the bit in this film when they put up the Tricolour for the first time in 4 years (banned by the Nazis) on top of the Prefecture. Very enjoyable film all round. The book on which it is based is also a good read. Thanks Tadlowmusic!
Very well done. At last a new recording(digital) of this music that I have been hoping for is accomplished. Thanks to this orchestra and youtube. I owned a vinyl of the sound track and eventually a cd when it came out. If only digital recording was available then(in 1966) that soundtrack would have been tremendous with all the drums, cymbals, trumpets and in addition as I recall, Mr.Jarre was using 12 grand pianos in his orchestra to record this soundtrack. It would be so wonderful to hear all these instruments without any distortions !!! What a joy ?
Impresionante e inolvidable obra que es un monumento al Arte de la Música. No me canso de escucharla una y otra vez, pues me traslada a otra dimensión...
Trop beau.Air galvanisant et puissant, comme le peuple, qui se soulève et dresse des barricades.Je ne me lasse pas de l'écouter.D'ailleurs le Film au titre éponyme est magnifique.
Great piece of music by a great composer--some of the other renditions available here are kind of shopworn....this Prague orchestra lead by Nic Raine did this thing to perfection......thank you.
As I recall, given that this occurred some 48-years ago, from a conversation with Richard Rodney Bennett, during which time he was visiting Denver, where I was employed at the time for TWA. RRB informed me that his agent asked him if you would perform as one of the ten pianists in the soundtrack. Bennett declined.
Why do you call this a 'song'? I think iTunes terminology [which incorrectly refers to all music genre as a 'song'] has ruined your concept of what form of music this is. To correct you, it is an 'instrumental' orchestral work.
@@jslasher1, this “instrumental orchestral work” has a name. It is called “Overture / Paris Waltz”. Therefore it is not only a tune / theme, but it is also a dance - a waltz. When listening to it, my mind’s eye can see the tempo, and imagine a ballroom full of dancers, waltzing to this music. Don’t be so hard on @Jeffrey Kozinski; I’m not musically trained either. So even if he didn’t get the music jargon correct, he and I can appreciate the genius of Maurice Jarre in producing a lovely piece of music for Is Paris Burning, as well as his other great works in Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago, Ben Hur, and more.
Nic Raine is a competent conductor, but sometimes it seems that his concern is with the quality of his re-recording (thus inducing some changes) and not with his fidelity to the original recording. This is what happened with "El Cid": small changes were made enough to decarterize the Miklós Rózsa style to show Nic Raine.
Éste fondo musical inolvidable acompañó a la entrada de las Tropas Aliadas en París, en agosto de 1944, para liberar, junto a los partisanos, a la capital francesa del dominio alemán. Por eso se le llama el Vals de la Liberación...!!
Are you a middle age british or a Putin fan ? Oh Sorry ! Descendants of snoby british are serious. Putin is just joking. I hoppe you will never have a war on your land.

Magnificently beautiful music!!
Love that music. Always have from the first time I heard it as a kid during the movie. Thank you to the great Maurice Jarre. Requiescat in Pacé
Thank you !! Since a wee boy loved the music . But the horrifying background of war took a great tinge of sadness. But a Great Score !!!!!!!!
One of the most amazingly intimate pieces of music ever played, written, and truly felt...it makes anyone, and everyone a little more 'French'....

@@stretch-fd4dg You could start by reading the book on which it is based, by Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre. It is available at Amazon.com.

Wonderful. Beautiful. Stirring. Incomparable.
Bravo! Thanks for sharing this wonderful music.
The most brilliant film score for an epic movie - français, of course!
It is very inspiring and motivational that appeal our emotions. In particular nowdays when people want to be free.Ya

Absolutely terrific.
Like always a very fine quality about the recording and orchestral playing. Congrats James, Nic and the COPPO team.
I love this film & music!
Love this music, especially the waltz!
VIVE LA FRANCE!!! VIVE LA PARIS!!! I still have the original soundtrack album in my collection.
Impresionante fondo musical. Michel Jarre, su autor: GRAN MAESTRO...!!!
Beautiful!
This is great. Thank you for uploading.
I can't wait for this entire album to be released.
Dynamic performance of a captivating soundtrack

I like it even better than "Lawrence Of Arabia" and "Doctor Zhivago"
ditto
I have not thought of Maurice Jarre in a long time ! Thanks for the reminder. I think I need to revisit him. 12423

Éste bellisimo vals, cuyo título "ARDE PARÍS...??", es, junto al HIMNO NACIONAL LA MARSELLESA, el fondo musical de ésa película inolvidable...!!
brillante maurice.. great music.. saludos--
Try listening to the Geoff Love version of this - the album is entitled Great War Movie Themes.
Geoff Love recorded the waltz, which is quoted within this overture, however its a separate piece of music.
Waltz for sure. Wondered if Geoff Love's version was an arrangement of Jarre's original score? Nice to hear again though.
Brilliant
I love tis overture! Starts with dark and foreboding tones and ends with the city in spring. A must see WW II movie that ends so sweetly. 21123
Full orchestras make great music greater !
Great song from a great movie. Double combo!!

@@ChrisNovak-ProfessionalNerd This is a fine composition by M Jarre. One of my favourites.

A wonderful theme in classical style for the sea change taking place in America today. All lives matter, and hate will collapse under its own weight.

この曲は大好きなのですが、サウンドトラックレコードにあったオリジナル演奏が信じられない事にグランドピアノ6台、アップライトピアノ6台という構成だったとの事。これを再現する演奏の動画を観たいものです。

Belle interprétation ! L'orchestre compte même un accordéon !

they are what's called a scoring stage
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
C'est bon.
Chique!
Terrific Jarre score... my Mom bought the LP Soundtrack album when it came out... sadly the movie is a bit draggy and tedious.
Not enough chases and explosions?
If you have not seen the film , do so. Much of it is based on what really did happen !
Why is it so jolly?...Lol...
i had a feeling paris was burning
Beautiful piece of music. It almost makes one believe the French to be a brave and noble people.
well they are, just like most peoples

wonder which part is the german army .... just kidding
Not a memorable rendition. The Prague musicians are simply not up to the complexities of the overture. And where are the 10 grand pianos?
