it's like you can mentally see every scene with every note played. Once the tone of the whole song changes all I can see is Anaking marching into the temple surrounded by clones.
I also really like Anakin's Theme from Episode 1, and how it thinly woven with Darth Vader's theme. It feels like a giant shadow of a monster rises behind small little boy
Honestly, this soundtrack is beyond beautiful, it is devine. If one day I am fortunate enough to find a husband this will play as the main song to my wedding 💒. P.S I got Padme Amidala as the Star Wars character that I am most like 😄
I love how Across the Stars sounds romantic, but at the same time it has sad undertones giving it this sense of impending tragedy. Later in the song, it ends up getting more intense and powerful in tone, hinting the galaxy is going to be changed forever! It's both beautiful and impactful at the same time O.o
Lucas had once pointed out that the story of Anakin was supposed to be similar to that of a Greek Tragedy. If that's the case then it was exceptionally done especially if one puts in the clone wars series and later. Showing the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker and the Republic he served under, and the people that were his allies and friends fall with him or stand against him in the end. The Entire series of Star Wars up until Return of the Jedi is one giant epic Greek Tragedy..
+Galápagos Turtle you get the feeling that you cant explain its nice isn't it? all those memories fly through you as you listen to this and you feel as if you are peaceful and can do anything yet you cant at the same time star wars is big inspiration in my life and others c:
Kids I’m going to tell you the story on how I met your father and how meeting him plunged the galaxy into decades of war killing billions even a entire planet
This is one of the very few musical pieces that really moves me. Every time I hear it my chest tightens and I feel like crying. Above all that, I love the changes and intensity put in the middle part, it's the same with the Main Theme of Star Wars. John Williams is a damn genius. If I see live an orchestra like this playing Across The Stars like this one do, definitely I will cry oceans.
Hey friend, A couple of years ago I heard a professional orchestra playing this song live and I CRIED. Just commenting this so you can fell your own completion whitout feeling weird or whatever
Look I know that not everyone is a fan of the prequels, and that there are a good portion of things that makes people not like them. But people absolutely can't say anything bad about the soundtrack because it was amazing.
izuniias I personally don't mind the prequels. Sometimes.. But Revenge of the sith personally has the best score out of the saga, maybe matched by Empire.. Or Force Awakens. But the prequel scores were definitely some of the best, in cinema as a whole?
For real. I do love the prequels (although I don't consider them "good" from a more objective perspective) but the musical score is an absolute gem. Probably some of the best themes in John Williams career. And that's saying a lot.
+Vylkeer i think williams is an amazing composer, but you need to check out gustav holst (william's #1 inspiration). you won't be disappointed, i know i wasn't
All I can say is WOW. Across The Stars is simply magnificent. Being a concert pianist, I've been around quite a lot of music, but have never come across a piece so gorgeous. I'll have to tell my conductor to start planning for a Star Wars performance.
Words cannot describe how absolutely amazing this piece is. As shitty as Attack of the Clones may have been, this song seriously might be the greatest in the entire saga. It is the perfect love ballad, and totally set the mood of romance. So unbelievably beautiful. John Williams is fucking phenomenal. God, I love this song so much.
this song showed me the true realationship between anakin and padmé and why he become´s vader in the end. thats how i feelt about this peace. it´s great after all this time.
Dungeons and dragons is shit. Space truckers is shit. Dragon wars is shit. The last airbender is shit, glitter is shit. Catwoman is shit. Those are shit movies. There's no such thing as a shit theatre released star wars movie, just ones that aren't as good as others. Tired of internet hyperbolic nonsense.
Im convinced that the clarinets in the beginning are the voice of Padme and as the song goes on, it slowly gets drowned out by the brass insturments which are anakin... The strings are the galaxy around them until you hear at the end is the harp just playing their melody, faintly and delicately...letting the entire galaxy the tragic love story which changed the world they inhabit..... When the only thing two people wanted was to be able to love each other
This is what Love sounds like. Feel it. Embrace it. John Williams composes emotions through sound… what a talent. Shivers down my spine and goosebumps when the oboe drops.
Hi my name is Alexis and I am a committed French horn player still in high school though and I love your orchestra and especially this song you guys sound amazing and inspiring me to become a great musician just like you guys
Love this track, makes me think of all the different choices that I could have made in my life and every different outcome, for some reason tho my eyes get wet every time... weird feeling
Obi wan:debo reconocer que sin los clones no habríamos conseguimos la victoria.. Yoda:victoria dices?no obi wan no fue victoria...el velo del lado oscuro ha caido...ha iniciado la guerra de los clones....
This song always makes me cry a lot 😭 because when I hear it ,it remembers me all the sequence on the movie with Padme and Anakin 💕. It was a true love story...and you know...a true love story never end...😔 but this time it ended. This is so sad ,so you just remember when Anakin and Pamde were talking about how they’ll do to protect and educate their baby...it is truly breaking my heart in million of pieces💔💔💔🥺🥺🥺
Jack and Rose’s love is nothing compared to the love of Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala. Strong, their love is. The theme make the lives stronger. Standing ovation of all musicians in the orchestra. I love padmé more than all the characters in the movie Her dress when she eats lunch with Anakin was beautiful
This soundtrack is just soo sweet and beautiful it truly touches the heart. Using the oboe to express the romantic feelings is always a perfect choice and closing it with he cor anglais as a lower sound effect
+Undead United Ian Mcdiarmid, Liam Neeson, Ewan Mcgregor, Christopher Lee, Ray Park, the sound designer, the watto animators, Natalie Portman, i myself would say Hayden Christensen too, the character was extremely difficult to perform, he needed to have Jake Lloyd expressions and body acting of David Prowse. Also the dialogue was written for Darth Vader in ROTS, so it reads unreal, buy Hayden made it all work for me. I don't see another way possible to make that happen, i'm not an actor tho.
+Undead United In my opinion, the prequels had the recipe for a great thing. The cast was great, the music was great, the story is even great. I just think the only flaws, which I do accept, were the direction, but I still loved them regardless of its faults.
+Maverick Alpha In my opinion, the prequels were great timeless stories. It showed us how democracy turns into dictatorship, how people slowly loose faith in it and instead chose strong dictators and how they applaud while the dictators takes away the freedom from them… This is one of the greatest stories ever, this is happening all the time in the real world! More people should realize it.
Sorry for the original films lovers but i prefer a lot more the prequels and my reason its not different from yours, because i grew up with the prequels and not the originals (sorry for the bad english :v)
I am so happy to be playing this song in orchestra this year. I've known Star Wars half my life and this song has always been my favorite.... Moves me to tears every time.
You can hear the entire prequel story in just this song.
it's like you can mentally see every scene with every note played. Once the tone of the whole song changes all I can see is Anaking marching into the temple surrounded by clones.
@@tylera9039the sad harp at the end signifying Padme’s death and Vader’s transformation really hits hard.
^ all this above lit describes my experience with this piece. Without fail, every time I feel like the prequels is summed up in across the stars
Episode I: Duel of the Fates
Episode II: Accross the Stars
Episode III: Battle of the Heroes
I personally would say Episode III: the whole soundtrack
@@eliasvsaa Yeah, all soundtracks from Episode III are amazing!
I also really like Anakin's Theme from Episode 1, and how it thinly woven with Darth Vader's theme. It feels like a giant shadow of a monster rises behind small little boy
Episode IV : Binary Sunset
Episode V : The Imperial March
Episode VI : A Jedi's Fury
@@eliaaggio961 I would say Victory Celebration for episode 6, even though it was added later.
2:11 ... when your goosepumps gets goosepumps
1:24
3 years later... totally agree. EPIC.
@@Krone_46 welcome back
Exactly
Omg yess
The best piece in the Star Wars soundtrack, IMO. Easily one of Williams' best.
+yoloplayz imperial march ftw
+eRaZE Hyper nope, not anymore
It's good, but it was used too much in Attack of the Clones.
metalore that’s because there was a lot of the romance which it was used for in it lol
Honestly, this soundtrack is beyond beautiful, it is devine. If one day I am fortunate enough to find a husband this will play as the main song to my wedding 💒.
P.S I got Padme Amidala as the Star Wars character that I am most like 😄
if i ever get married this will be my wedding song
RICHARD MARTINEZ same here
RICHARD MARTINEZ wouldnt that be awkard considering that this song is basically telling the story of a failed relationship?!
Heiliger Jesus That’s what marriage is about

Oh I didnt know thanks for bring this message appreciate it
+Vylkeer i think williams is an amazing composer, but you need to check out gustav holst (william's #1 inspiration). you won't be disappointed, i know i wasn't
I agree
This theme makes love between Anakin and Padme so medieval... and true
It's the clone age,
Send people rampage,
Mummy gets flayed, strayed,
Ani's bae is Padme
A man of culture
I always hear this whenever i listen to this
I always here that whenever I hear this song, the imperial march, and cantina song, did really love that song/ video though

Learn it! :)
Look up Friedrich Luhl Across the stars piano
alrighty then
Might be cheaper for him to get the Enescu score... ua-cam.com/video/mbVcbCZfgaM/v-deo.html
This song is beauty and tragedy. It flows with the sense of happiness but an unending reminder that this happiness will end horribly. I love it.
The harp at the end 😍
Thier love story changed the whole universe
This is so beautiful, I have chills.....
The most beautiful moment starts at 2:08
So true
Yes , more !
catches me every time
Yasssss
4:20
It gives a sense of tragic, more than love, a short moment of peace before the catastrophe
When the trombones comes in and the strings plays loudly ughh that feeling is so beautiful
Peter Griffin is such an incredible conductor in this piece. Really glad to see him outside of the Quahog performance circle and try something new.
🍝🦆
You mean Gabe Newell
This is probably my favourite love theme of all time
John Williams is a Master, a Genius and a part of my childhood
3:01 “Select a fleet to command!”
I can’t tell how much I love this song. It is so powerful and so sad somehow so tragic.

Me too
It gave nostalgia of when i was a kid.
Super underrated musical piece from a super underrated trilogy
Probably my favorite orchestral piece of all time. Thank you, John Williams.
magnificent
@4:25 the part i was looking for that gave me shivers!
Goosebumps everywhere on my body
This is the most Romantic piece of all Star Wars movies. Which means that it must end in tragedy.
This song make me cry :-(
THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST IM CRYING
I still love this masterpiece, best soundtrack ever.
I love how it gets darker as the song progresses, referencing Anakin and the dark side.
This is what Love sounds like. Feel it. Embrace it. John Williams composes emotions through sound… what a talent. Shivers down my spine and goosebumps when the oboe drops.
I sent this song to my best friend, I've been in love with her for more than 2 years I told him that in our wedding we had to put it

Can't stop crying. Music has a great power!
I dont know what to say "across the stars" is a magnificent song,with full Orchestra is Magnificent and a lot more...
Padme quiero llorar 😢 la verdad el señor John Williams hizo un gran trabajo con la sinfonia... Una de mis melodías favoritas!!!
Can't understand your language.
he says "This is a great job of mr williams" and he is sad for the padme death o algo asi nose yo soy de argentina

It's impossible not to get chills with this song
I quite literally cry each time hearing this. So beautifully conducted and played. So much talent.
Thank you very much! ❤️
The best track of the prequel trilogy, so romantic and a poweful Tchaikovskyan atmosphere.
Love the subtle differences in how the Prague Orchestra plays these movie themes. Beautiful!
1:26 this theme is so powerful, that it even turned off darth mauls lightsaber
My heart drops at 3:43
This guy 😂😂😂
Jack and Rose’s love is nothing compared to the love of Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala. Strong, their love is. The theme make the lives stronger. Standing ovation of all musicians in the orchestra. I love padmé more than all the characters in the movie
Her dress when she eats lunch with Anakin was beautiful
this makes me want to cry, but I love it.
This soundtrack is just soo sweet and beautiful it truly touches the heart. Using the oboe to express the romantic feelings is always a perfect choice and closing it with he cor anglais as a lower sound effect
If one thing saved the prequels, It was John Williams.
+Undead United Ian Mcdiarmid, Liam Neeson, Ewan Mcgregor, Christopher Lee, Ray Park, the sound designer, the watto animators, Natalie Portman, i myself would say Hayden Christensen too, the character was extremely difficult to perform, he needed to have Jake Lloyd expressions and body acting of David Prowse. Also the dialogue was written for Darth Vader in ROTS, so it reads unreal, buy Hayden made it all work for me. I don't see another way possible to make that happen, i'm not an actor tho.

This is a beautiful piece of music irregardless of the context from the film. Just standing on its own.
This song makes me feel so much emotion I can’t 😭

What a masterpiece..my all time favourite from all the movies.
