- Main theme of Schindler's List as a tribute to John Williams
during honoring his achievements at AFI Life Achievement Award 2016 (as the first composer honoree).
Conductor: Gustavo Dudamel
American Youth Symphony
Soloist: Simone Porter
I have always wanted to see John Williams's own reaction to this theme and here it is!
I do not own any copyright of the video.
It’s as if the violin is crying. Unquestionably one of the greatest pieces of music ever written.
How much pressure was that violinist feeling. I can't fathom it
Listen to Chopin's Nocturne in C Sharp minor
Jurassic Park theme is better than this theme
@@macdeep8523 I won’t argue. Just goes to show how brilliant Williams is, to compose both those scores in 1993.
@@macdeep8523 I can't believe You Say that seriously
John Williams has that look on his face like “I can’t believe I’m responsible for this masterpiece”
What is interesting is when Spielberg asked him to compose the score for this film he said he could not and told Spielberg to find someone better. Spielberg replied with "I would, but they are all dead." Such a great backhanded compliment if I say so.
@@jcudal32 What a shit comment !
Marc Franke couldn't agree more
@@marcfranke4254 don't mind him every village has it's idiot
@@StinkyGreenBud So True !!
Playing Schindler'list theme in front of Spielberg and Williams... What an accomplishment for a musician 😍
Or….Spielberg, Williams and Perlman??? :)
When Spielberg asked John Williams to write the score for Schindler’s List he showed him an early cut of the movie. Williams stood up and walked out of the screening room. He came back in a few minutes later crying and said “you need someone better than me to write music for this.” And Spielberg said, “I know, but everyone better than you are dead.”
If that is true that is heartbreaking.

12/21/2019 and still perfect
speilberg ?
Cush the famous director who made great movies like Indiana Jones. That Spielberg? Come on my guy, your better Thant that.
@@samuelhermosillo4532 I see
Elaine Lennox is not the only one with deficiencies.
Cush wow that was fast usually it takes a few days to respond. What ever the case, I’m not on your case so chill my guy. Bro 👊
Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes nailed their role.
Add Kingsley.
Top 10 movie ever if not the best
@@margaridacosta270 Kingsley nailed his role in Gandhi. He just did acting in Schindler's List.
@@raginghorse1895 Only Fiennes was better than him.
@@margaridacosta270 @Costa Margarida @Costa Margarida But in the last scene in the movie where Schindler (Neeson) laments that he could have saved some more people which was heart touching. Also proved that Neeson is a fantastic actor.
Neeson, Fiennes, and Kingsley all should’ve won awards that year. Specifically Neeson
“ I could have got more” gets me every time. Williams and Spielbergs’ masterpiece!!
Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire
Sempre choro nessa hora. E já vi o filme umas 7 ou 8 vezes.
“This car 10 people, this pin, 2 people”
Always must reach us 😢
Sadly that haunted him the rest of his life...
I'd have to say this has to be Spielberg and Williams magnum Opus. The score and film itself is such a great piece of art that should never be forgotten.
It's so beautiful
Asi fue. Tanto sufrimiento y tanta maldad que a veces me pregunto ¿ Donde estaba Dios ?
The same that the Palestinian Holocaust
@@edilberherazo7589 Hace siglos se.olvido.de nosotros ya que no fuimos el producto que el deseaba
Never forgotten like the Holocaust itself. We need to stop tearing down monuments and destroying history whether good or bad. The old adage is true about those who forget history.
Spielberg's reaction says it all bravo
Yeah, and this film maker is pretty much like George Lucas because their movies are proof that they are born to be legends.
Sometimes I wonder how people could get so inspired and compose something so magnificent that makes others just cry.
Can we take a moment and say how extraordinary Simone Porter's performance was? That final high pitched run, and climatic note were perfection!
Simplemente increíble. Muy desgarrador. Sin duda la mejor en tocar este tema.
Outstanding!!!❤❤❤
Perlman would be proud.
To be honest I prefer other solists on that wonderful song. Too fast played and I miss the emotion.
Absolutely. The best rendition I've heard after Perlman himself.
John Williams has an extraordinary sensibility for composing musical scores that perfectly capture the essence of a film. This is definitely heart-wrenching beauty.
He said he never created this song for the film, but only for the six million murdered for the money of industry
I think i have found the most Beautiful Piece of Music EVER Written. The Final Note....Staggering.
The look on John Williams' face at 0:35 and at 3:12 says it all
Very good piece but Beethoven also has some really beautiful pieces.
It is a beautiful piece no doubt and a heartfelt one as well. For me it is the power of music that carries us and touches the souls and conscience to never forget lest the past should repeat itself. Beethoven is a different matter
Bach's Chaconne

Mr. Williams looked almost as if he was in shock. The violinist was superb, her instrument weeping with those who suffered! Beautiful music.
This movie destroyed me in a way that I can't explain
So has me, like any nazi film
How blessed we are to grew up and have music from John Williams and Hans Zimmer. GOATS
Are you trying to put oranges and apples together? HZ is not cut from the same cloth as John Williams! JW is of different category
@@victoriousrufus6747 i am only glad that we can enjoy and grew up with 2 of the greatest in MY OPINION i don‘t compare them but you just did. Wtf is your problem?
You missed Morricone
add alain silvestri to that list also please
Need to include in that list, the late great James Horner
Evry time I ear this I'll cry
Me too
Me too😢
John Williams is the greatest composer
No, Michael Jordan is.
Yes, I think he has written and composed between 25 and 30 pieces of music just for Steven Spielberg. Certainly a genius and one of the greatest.
Greatest MOVIE composer, yes. Greatest composer, no.
@@BrokenEnglis I LOVE ENNIOS MORRICONNES work. They share the first place
Jesie Guillen Nahh DN is the best
John Williams is a genius. And too humble to know it. Bless him.
Williams has captured the pain and the sorrow of this endless tragedy in this short melody
The violin is pleading, is persuading, is crying to the heavens ! I am crying with the beauty of this piece of sublime music !❤❤❤
❤❤❤très triste j, ai vu le film
At 2:40 you can tell that even if he has a tear, this is a masterpiece thank you John Williams
This song is dedicated to his wife.
How does John Williams listen to this and think, “I’m the fucking greatest ever?” Truly one of the greatest pieces of music ever!!!!!!!
We do not need your profanities.
@@michaeljohnston-ul1vi ? oh boo hoo
Everytime I hear this theme I remember that last seen where Schindler collapses asking why he couldn't just save one more. Then the tears well up. It's even more when you look at Spielberg and Williams face like they are back making the movie again and the emotional moment.
One of the most moving pieces of music ever created
Both Music and Movie = MASTERPIECE
Yeah, and I never thought that film makers like George Lucas and Steven Spielberg can be so inspiring
If there ever was a piece of music that captured the horror and sadness of the holocaust this was it. Truly one of the best pieces of music ever written in the time of my life!
John Williams knows the notes to our souls. What a kind hearted genius.
What a brilliant violinist, she makes Williams' composition vibrate with endless emotion.
The most beautiful music ever written, how will we ever forget.
An angel came down to earth and took someone’s hand and write down his pain this is the result something out of this world
The score itself brings me to tears. Adding the backdrop of the movie it accompanied just gives it the gut punch. Together, both film and score are true masterpieces.
Makes something that was so inhuman, human again.
@@joeneighborIt is so difficult to Comprehend films of children being snatched from their Mothers. To be never seen again!..The burden on German Society is there forever!...
@@woodenseagull1899They are back again. Not so explicitly, but evil people doing things to our kids.
Not flat out murder this time, but the Marxist, under the cause of "wokness" and generally insane claims, or perverting kids, telling/indoctrinating kids that they can switch sex, and even flat out castrating kids.
This is happening in many countries. I used to think Hitler was the epitome of evil. The WHO, WEF, etc., the evil is among us again.
Maravillosa ,nunca vi pelicula q me impactara tanto,30 años despues aun recuerdo al terminar la pelicula ,la gente levantandose de sus butacas con lagrimas en los ojos y un silencio absoluto en una sala enorme llena de gente,solo se escuchaba el sonido de las butacas al levantarlas para salir ,esa sensacion me impacto casi mas q la propia pelicula ,salimos todos en soch por lo q habiamos visto.Aun tengo las entradas guardadas,para tiene aparte de ser una pelicula maravillosa ,un gran valor sentimental ,pues fue la ultima vez q sali con mi marido ya estaba enfermo de cancer terminal y el lo savia ,le pregunte q por q me llevaba a verla y me dijo ,por q se q si no ,no la vas a ver ,fallecio mes y medio despues,siempre se lo agradecere,pues si no es por el no habria visto esta obra maestra ,ni hubiera sentido lo q senti ,fue una noche inolvidable .
One of the most haunting pieces of music ever written, for one of the most difficult to watch, yet important movies ever made. Mr. Williams will always be the G.O.A.T!
Brilliant. The movie was a masterpiece, the music made it iconic
I don't understand why every time I listen to this masterpiece, it just makes me want to cry, it's as if it touches my soul and brings it to a degree of sensitivity that I can't control..
Me too bro.
Right? Hard to explain. It's like God enlightened John Williams to compose it, and us when we listen to it.
same....movie or not.
It’s a great music of a great movie about one of the most important tragedy seen on the world… I cry every times I listen this music, it break me deeply
same here. the feeling is just stronger than me and I must say I don't cry easily.
The violinist was amazing
The little girl in the red coat hiding under the bed is just so sad. My heart broke when she ended up in the heap of dead bodies from the ghettos.
This score is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard...you can feel the sadness of the whole tragedy in this music..chills everytime
It's comforting to know I'm not the only one who cries every time I hear this music.
*How difficult it must have been to have written such beautiful music for something so sad.*
You can see and feel all about this in John Williams face. Every muscian know what I mean
I cry every time I hear this masterpiece… so deep and emotional … pure music of the soul…
John Williams is undeniably the most incredible and amazingly exquisite composer of his generation. Absolutely stunning piece.
A masterpiece......❤️❤️❤️
O mundo inteiro, cada humano, pigmentos, credos e latitudes, escutem com o coração esta melodia.
I can’t listen to this piece without balling my eyes out. So beautiful, yet also so gut wrenching.
Possibly the best piece of music in movie history. Period
Being a musician myself…this truly ranks up there with the most breathtaking music I’ve ever heard !!! Such gorgeous music for such a violent time!!!! Just hearing the 1st 3-4 notes bring my tears!!! Bravissimo John Williams /Spielberg !!!!!!
That violinist was sublime.perfection.x
This man sees and feels the world in a way that most of us can dream about. Mr. Williams you’re a genius
It is a very hauntingly sad, but beautiful peace of music. I always cry when I hear it.
When hearing this, You just can't help thinking of the ways many lives were taken during the Holocaust and those who survive it. Very sad cry all the time I heard this.
I hope some day there will be an even theme to remember all the people the United States killed in every war since 1949 for greed.
Mysterion idiot
Mysterion aMerIca BaD, AmeRiCa bAD, shut up idiot
so fucking true mate

I will say it again, John Williams is an amazing composer, he is blessed with a great talent. The King of the universe has blessed him.
Thank you John Williams!! In my opinion this has got to be the most haunting and beautiful piece of music ever created. Brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. The conductor, symphony, and soloist were outstanding. My hats off to you all!
Every time I hear this peace of music, it makes me cry and wanted me to go to people to help and ask them "What can I do for you"
It brings me to tears every time I hear it.
This piece is like a hand reaching out inside my soul and squeezed the living hell out of my heart. I bawl my eyes out every single time I hear it without fail. The movie is also a masterpiece.
I tear up almost every time I hear it. It's John Williams masterpiece!
His finest work🥲
Gustavo was our conductor in Gothenburg. Regardless of the music he always brought new meaning, new emotion. This is simply sublime.
The sheer genius of John Williams....just incredible. Plenty of movie composers....but the depth of his work especially this one...it's visceral and moves you to a whole other plane. You can see him living the music he wrote. Just brilliant.
John Williams is to film scores what the Beatles are to pop culture… made all our lives that much better after having listened to them…❤
You can tell when they are playing a piece or feeling it, and they were feeling it.
I have never heard such an emotional piece it would bring tears to anybody's eyes
The man is simply a super hero without a cape, simply put the GOAT of all GOATS
Es como si el violín llorara todo el sufrimiento que hubo en la tierra en esos tiempos :(
Hay sentimientos que las palabras o acciones no son capaces de expresar correctamente. La música en cambio puede transmitir de manera total todos aquellos sentimientos. Que curiosa alusión, "es como si el violín llorara". Yo creo que lo que transmite es tan puro y complejo que nos hace sentir eso, como si llorara.
Mejores palabra no le quedan a este soundtrack .
😢😢😢😢.
This theme is so haunting, and it once again shows how John Williams makes his music a character in a film.
This piece of absolute wonderful art of music gets me each time leaving me behind shattered in tears.
masterpiece by a masterpiece
Amazing violinist, Simone Porter !!
В такие минуты музыки понимаеш на какие зверства способен человек и одновременно столь прекрасное он может творить.Поклон Джону Вильямсу,дай бог здоровья и долгих лет жизни этому человеку подарившему нам столь мучительно прекрасный шедевр.
Единство и борьба противоположностей. Жизнь и смерть
Мучительно прекрасный - замечательно сказано
Extraordinary performance from Simone Porter. What an honour at the same time.
Truly one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever composed.
This music speaks for all those who died, John did one masterpeace for all the time.
Timeless music. John Williams- musical genius and so beautifully played ❤
One of the most moving soundtracks ever scored... I have goosebumps right now just listening to it.
The haunting tune that digs deep into your emotions and hails the mighty John Williams!
As they watch their work you see in their eyes that that the power of it is still there.o thank God I live in a world that allows me to enjoy the gifts these men bring into our lives
I don't know how someone can listen to this, understanding the message behind it, without weeping. Exquisite.
Der Film ein Meisterwerk...die Film Musik ein Meisterwerk...😢
This tune is the soul of this movie. Generations will come and go and this kind of music will forever stay alive to tell the painful story.
Most rhythmically accurate version on youtube. Saw many good others, soloists are playing their part with great emotions but forget about chemistry with an orchestra. In this version that aspect is almost perfect.
I always felt the higher violin was the voice of the children and lower were the adults. Such a tender and heartfelt song! Bravo John Williams!!!! ❤️🎶❤️
3:12 Williams looks like a most critical maestro, overseeing the absolute correctness of the intonation and interpretation of his masterpiece, himself. If I knew I'm fixed by these attentive eyes, I'd be too nervous to play like her. And still: To me, this was the most moving interpretation I've ever heared, with even better emotional dynamics than all of Perlman's interpretations I know. Splendid!
Violin is the most heart-tugging instrument in human history.
So much emotion, crying. Stephen and John just pure emotion, no words.
The melody revel the sound of soul..that can ear across of the instrumental music
The moment when the song ends and you could take a deep breath ❤❤❤❤ its a masterpiece
We have two daughters. 4 years old and 18 months old. Explaining the Holocaust to them will be required but this beautiful composition will help immensely.
Jon Williams is a genius beyond words!
I would put this up there with any of the great compositions of all time, a masterpiece. It'll be played for decades and centuries to come.
The little girl tore the soul out of me.....
Oh don't get me started; such a performance by the sweet girl...💞💞💞
It always brings a tear ,the way John makes the violin cry ,it’s just sublime .
This music is so powerful, as soon as I hear it I go back to schindlers list, a master piece.
What a beautiful accolade, to be sitting in the same room whilst someone plays the most poignant piece of music ever scored for a movie.
It’s utterly stunning, absolutely sublime ❤️
When I was a child my dad sat by himself and played this on record, now I know why.
What a stunning performance on the violin.
Daz555Daz it was too fast.
@@THELANKANCOMRADE That was not her choice. She played wonderfully.
It's John Williams speechless at what he created being played to him. And the person who said the violin is crying, hats off, that is perfect.
The film is even more beautiful seeing this. My goodness me.
the guy (John Williams) is not even Jewish (I am), and yet in so few minutes, he managed to capture all of the profound sadness and angst that makes up so much of Jewish history. incredible, just incredible
Keep watching this, both John Williams and Steven Spielberg seem astonished at this masterpiece. Both the music and the film make me cry.
This is the most devastatingly haunting and saddest music I have ever heard.
It's 2021 and that moves me so deep..
