I'm a 76 year old living in Spain in retirement
and this piece with countless others of John
Barrys' tug at my heartstrings. I met him at a
party in 1968 in Maida Vale London and had
to be reminded who he was. John Smith
John Smith wow. Blessings
This song is one of the best theme I've ever listen, touch my heart every time and what an honor meet John Barry by the way.
Saw him in 1960 when I was 11 years old. My mates mum took us to Stockton to see Adam Faith and the John Barry Seven. Absolutely love Barry's work and the music from " my favourite movie" Out of Africa is brilliant.
John Smith lucky you😍
I'm 69. Never saw the movie. Crazy. I must see.
This Chap knocked out classics like they were going out of fashion, What a Legacy to leave behind.
Hell, it is so unfair, how talent is distributed ;-) But we can be truely greatful, that our ears must not be talented but just able to pick up the waves of wonderful sound.

Best quote ever - nothing to add
This is what entering heaven must sound like...
Toda la razón.
Some people create things so beautiful they far outlast the fleeting time of a life....This is one of those things.
:)
ohhhhhhhhhhhhh yes
It never ceases to amaze me that men like John Barry - working with just a handful of notes in a scale - can produce something as breathtaking as this score and so many others. So beautiful..!!
Thank you John Barry for the most beautiful, absorbing and true music, I have ever heard in my life. I am so sorry that you are not here today to offer my sincere thanks to you. Thank you once again and may you rest in peace, where ever you are. Bandula Jayawardene

Thank heavens we will always have the music of John Barry to uplift us, and provide an escape from this troubled world! All so magical!
John Barry was the greatest musical architect
I have chosen this music for my committal when the time comes it moves me each time I hear it,what a fantastic composer John Barry was ì😢😢
THE GREATEST MOVIE MUSIC COMPOSER WHO EVER LIVED!
Yep :)

He's certainly up there with many of them! Undoubtedly he's on of the greatest British composers of the 20th Century and with Hans Zimmer, Ennio Morricone, John Newton Howard and Howard Shore amongst the greatest ever composers of film music.
Nigel Maund Don't forget John Williams, that guy is genius
After so many years, it still touches my heart like it used to be. So thankful for it makes the world more beautiful.
The first time I saw "Out of Africa" was at a theatre in London, England. I was on holiday & my dear friend, an Irish gentleman, to whom I am forever grateful for introducing me to this magnificent film; even now, these many years later, I always tear up whenever I hear the music. Thank you, Gerry...
How wonderful to be remembered for such beauty when it's time to leave. John left us a sweet legacy.
I love people who compose beautiful instrumental music.. T_T.. American is dying.. great composers are one by one departing.. so grateful to hear this music in my time.
jardeus maximus It reflects the culture too. It's in its decline as time passes sadly.
This is one of John's Best scores. Right up there with Dances with wolves, Somewhere In Time and the Love theme from The James bond classic, On Her majesty's Secret Service (Love Theme). AND my favorite mini series of his work, Eleanor and Franklin. Such a lose for us all. GREAT COMPOSER!
His musical genius known for it's ability to consume your every thought, at the same time kissing each nerve in your willing body as never before, it is more than sensuous. Each note warms your mind, body and soul as it seems to surpass the others. Climbing higher and higher through the clouds with no end in sight, lifting you into a breathless state, of an almost unforgotten love long passed, brought to mind as in life at it's end. Memories are wonderful. Thank you John Barry
John Barry's compositions are beyond description. They transcend our senses to higher planes. I believe that's why we cry. RIP.🙏🏻
This music is so deeply, and profoundly, emotionally soul stirring to me I can't help but to cry weeping buckets full of tears..... every single time I hear this piece. It's that moving. It's just so lovely. I'm crying now, still, as I'm typing this.
The main title theme is amongst the finest pieces of music across all genres, for all time! Over Sidney Pollack's opening panorama of Out of Africa, they combine to present one of the astonishing seminal moments in all of western culture!
Takes me back, in a way, to my time in Africa, over 45 years ago. I had to leave suddenly: eye problems. Evocative ... Thanks.
+David H. Cook a world in one country
Soaring strings, mellifluous horns, John Barry, composer supreme,
Superimposed over African landscapes, almost a surrealist dream.
The backdrop of mountains with rivers cascading as, sparkling, they fall into space
Can almost bring tears to the eye while detecting those plaintive heartbreaking displays
Of glorious sweeping, towering arpeggios, descriptive perfection is heard
To compliment exquisite, vast panoramas, as if through the eye of a bird.
Woke up this morning with this masterpiece flowing through my head. Made me cry with its beauty.
Absolutely, staggeringly beautiful. As is the film, as is the book.
Both the movie and the theme song are masterpieces... a perfect combination, much like a good marriage... or a good friendship! Thank you Mr. Barry!
Every time I hear this beautiful piece of music, I have to replay it again and again. It stirs up every emotion. Thank you for composing such an inspiring, breath stopping piece of music.
I have to agree with what you said there .
when I was a young lad, I admired the gorgeousness of Mr. Barry's music. Now, I just feel so much love in his music.
Superb composition! ... John Barry will be remembered as one of the truly great composers of the 20th-21st century.
No words can describe it. The melody explains the feeling...

John Barry wrote lush, gorgeous, delicious, sensuous music for us all - and each is unforgettable. Thank you so much, Mr. Barry.
I totally agree, Nancy. He was, and always will be, one in a million. How do you compare the "Rap" crap that plagues our airways today with this kind of music? You can't.
Bud Garr you can love this type of music while keeping an open mind. Not all music has to be gorgeous and lush, but there’s a soundtrack to everything and not everything in life is romantic. Just a thought.
As a classical musician of many many years I’ve always loved modern music and it breaks my heart to see people dismiss one genre of music or another because they simply have not given it a chance, or are content to view it on the periphery of prejudice.
@@judyyang6667 I agree with you about keeping an open mind regarding all types of music, but he was not dismissing other types necessarily, just ‘rap’ as I read it.
@@KathieRopele74 if you look closely you can find rap that is soulful and follows the tradition of jazz, soul, and blues. It's all a matter of how hard you look in my opinion.
@@judyyang6667 of course you are correct.
we sould all be imensley proud to have had great composers like these .
this makes me want to cry on so many different levels. I cannot explain that it gives me joy and sorrow at the same time. john barry I am sorry that I was too young but now I am older and I get it. but it is too late.
+1pupblacky It is never to late. It is wonderful to understand this music.
+1pupblacky . Its wonderful to get it, and feel the joy of the truly beautiful music and things all around. Now your living, look up and keep enjoying.
Agree with you! It's never too late to discover a beautiful music, because music means emotions. Even if it is durig 3 minutes in a day, it is a good day!
It is never too late, still breathing still have a chance, good luck to you............
Why should we cry? Because we are old (I am!)? Because we have lost opportunities? Because we have been hurt or have hurt others? Or in this case because we listen to a piece of timeless, beautiful music that transcends it all. I cry when I listen to this because you and I are so lucky to be able live to to appreciate it.
This is one of the most deep romantic pieces ever composed, with a strong emotional impact in the listener. Reminds the more deep feelings in the actors Maryl Streep and Robert Redford, every time I listen this peace is impossible to avoid the "goose bumps", thanks for sharing this magnificent peace form the master John Barry
I’ve sung some of the most beautiful operas all over the world with the greatest singers ever . That music gives me chills quite often , but this music makes me weep! It’s perfect ! John Barry was a genius .. Dwayne Croft
One of the best soundtrack ever recorded. John Barry is a great composer. This music captured my soul forever!
one of the 20th century great composers that we have lost
joseph capre
I can spot a John Barry composition from a mile away. Just fucking wonderful :')
+Si Hopeb but why swear about it ||

Si Hopebgood absolutely!
It's those strings innit? :)

this music touches my heart beyond words.......
me too
Michael Wayne Yes
God yes.
Yes, because it expresses what we longing for !
Tutti parlano di Barry e della sua bella musica.....ma vogliamo ricordare anche Sabine Meyer (prediletta di Von Karajan) ed il suo flessuoso struggente clarino?
Carlo Giovanardi
Bologna
not enough words to describe how wonderful this is..
Some of the most compelling and beautiful music! He was a Genius and I miss him!
His music and compositions have touch me dearly.........
Ce compositeur a su touché ma corde sensible , c'est un régal , une épopée qui conquiert tout mon ètre !
I played this piece with my orchestra about a year ago. Tugs at the tears every time I hear this masterpiece. Simple, yet moving.
What is so beautiful about this story that it was a true story and it was a love story and the unforgettable one.
The John Barry style, a woven spinning blend of orchestral majesty.
anyone else wanna embrace everyone they have ever met at the sound of this beautiful mans beautiful music?! No? Guess its just me then!
old toby .... it's ok...... that's not a bad idea, taken in the normal pure context of Platonic/Brotherhood/Sisterhood Love.
Next to Elgar’s “Nimrod” and Dire Straits’s “Brothers in Arms” I find this makes me get all emotional.. Beautiful music. One of my all time favourites
What a composer...coming from an African farm myself now living in England ...this music always bring tears...We have lost a wonderful man JOHN BARRY
J'ai adoré ce film : Les acteurs étaient formidables !!! Merci !!!!
heerlijk om op weg te dromen doet mij deugd te mogen beluisteren ,dank is groot.
Wonderen movie with wonderfull actors. Great story. Beautifull scenery. And wonderfull music.
That, is the finest Music i ever heard. Thank you and R.I.P Mr. John Barry!
John"s music takes my mind to paradise!
That unmistakeable sound that is John Barry. Wonderful
I was a kid into rock when I first heard this and it stopped me cold in my tracks. I wss floored by its power and beauty. I wss an instant fan. 'Lion In Winter' and 'Dances With Wolves' are two other favorites...not to mention his 'Bond' compositions.
Heartbreakingly beautiful sums up all the emotions of love and life for me
This may well be the greatest piece of music ever written and I say this with great humility.
This man is a musical genius, and didn't get the credit he so rightly deserved, and this piece is the greatest piece of music I have ever heard, and you just know that when it moves you like no other music, God bless you Mr. Barry.
One of the 2 Best!! Ennio Morricone is #1 and I love John Barry!!
Dear John Barry, R I P you have uplift multitudes, and help us dear too with the sorrow which often can connect with special splendor...
magnifiquement ÉMOTIVEMENT PRENANT DROIT AU COEUR ! N'AI JAMAIS RIEN ENTENDU DE PAREIL ! ET DIEU SAIT QUE J'EN AI ÉCOUTÉ DES MUSIQUES DE FILM ! MILE MERÇI À CE GRAND COMPOSITEUR ET AUX ACTEURS ET ACTRICES MERVEILLEUX DE CE SUPERBE GRAND FILM !!! M. BARRY A SU MAGNIFICIÉ LE TALENT DE CES DEUX GRANDS ACTEURS ET TOUTE LA BEAUTÉ DE L'AFRIQUE ! MERÇI À CET IMMENSE TALENT ET QUELLE GÉNÉROSITÉ !
His instrumental orgesrratione and sense of melodic beauty have set a beautiful standard. He is unmatched in the beauty of his compositions. A true best among the best in the 20th Century.
Does the world still produce such great composers nowadays?
I'd forgotten what a beautiful film this was both aurally and visually ...
this reminder is welcome.
Merci j'adore cette musique , et le beau film de Robert Redford et Mertl Streep ,il met du baume à mon coeur !
Wonderful song,very romantic!
Es ist immer wieder zum weinen , es gibt filme und musik , die sind einmalig.
You don't have music like this these days.
It's because john Barry is the one composer that could never be replaced.
I'm listening to it.
you need explore，like the way to Africa！
Cette musique et ce film résonnent encore dans ma tête. ..et pour longtemps je pense 🙄😍
La musica di questo film e' divina!!! Commuove e ti dà emozioni❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love this movie and I can watch it over and over... John Barry is a master on how he takes his music and puts it in a film it is magic... Love love love...
frissons, émotion , quel chef d oeuvre !
truly a great performer and song writer of our time, sadly missed but never forgotten? one of the greats of our time.
To me this music captures some of the beauty and grandeur of Africa.
So incredibly moving and incredibly beautiful!
A music score that makes one tear up ~ Amazing John Barry ~ What a legend
what a beautiful melody, every time I hear this music, I see myself traveling
What a wonderful comment of yours, and so true. Unfortunately many people in Britain especially young people are turning further away from God and destroying their lives. The constant obsession with pleasing oneself and the right to be or feel 'happy' all the time.
in my top ten films ... great realistic story telling...great music...great visuals...total escape
So beautiful. the music just pulls you in.
I just lay back; and feel it.
John Barry again, set the mood for entire piece
my top ten movie........makes me cry. Top Ten. Zhviago...Godfather, Chinatown...............
One can feel the breeze, smell the flora and fauna, feel the sun and rain.
My "go to" tune when I want to feel sad but happy at the same time. Just exquisite!
one of the best composer.. thanks for sharing
For myself this is greatest musical score I have ever heard, I never get tired of listening to it. It is deeply, deeply evocative and matched with visual form and story of Sydney Pollacks film "Out of Africa" - it is both heart breaking and inspiring. And it produced my favorite toast "to rose lipt maidens and light foot lads" If only to be young again...
That imposing, solitary, breathtaking beauty as wings traverse over the plain,
Enhanced by the glorious expansive melodic cadences in perfect refrain,
Give all who encountered this maestro’s artistry a genuine sense of emotion,
Which always enhances, increases the pleasure experienced beyond all proportion.
And though he is gone, his music lives on in our memories, always to treasure,
For which we give thanks to this Yorkshire lad whose genius has given such pleasure
The best music and the best film OUT AFRICA
We stayed together for over 50 years.
She is now gone. Had a good time !
feel like life streaming brightly over you. It is great to breath with this music the same tune.
Imádom ezt a zenét... a film (Volt egy farmom Afrikában) ettől annyira magával ragadó!
Sublimes : le musicien et le film . Sans oublier Mozart ... encore bravo . Que d'émotion . Dan Perlman
If anyone on this planet listens to this fantastic Out of Africa theme music, and it doesn't move you, there is something totally wrong with you, John Barry a musical genius.
When I die .This is my funeral tune . Heavenly !
Dieser Film und diese Musik hat in meinem Herzen unfassbar viel bewegt. Vielen Dank, dass es hochgeladen wurde.
This track offers a sense of hope and adventure as you listen. The sheer size of the music makes you think there are no limits for the journey to make.
Touches deep in the heart... amazing!
Always spot on theme. I love his mixture of instruments, weaving, spinning, in perfect time. Thank you.
Magniphique!!!!!Merci pour cette douceur!
Gives me goosebumps every time. Just beautiful…
