WHY CAN'T WE HAVE MUSIC LIKE THIS TODAY ON THE RADIO AND TV? IT SEEMS WE CAN ONLY ENJOY IT ON UA-cam. I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR THESE VIDEOS AND THOSE WHO PRODUCED AND PRESERVED THEM. A BIG, BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THE SINGERS AND MUSICIANS AND MR. JOHN WILSON, MATTHEW FORD AND THE MAIDA VALE SINGERS. WONDERFUL! . . .SYLVIA! FL 8/14/2020
The show, You are watching here, ChannelMaster720, was produced by BBC for british television, and ripped for UA-cam for watching without paying by pirates. You can still buy it on DVD for Your home cinema, and thereby support the production, and help the next show to be made....
There is a reason for this. To reach this level of brilliance takes time, hard work, dedication and commitment. It takes great sacrifice. And unfortunately the young musicians of today are not prepared to go that road. They think that making enough noise and making it LOUDER will compensate. It won't.
@@r4b32t11 JW has been to conduct Sydney Symphony in Concerts with some of the musical programmes he has done here. Andrew Haveron who is leading the John Wilson Orchestra in this video is Concertmaster in Sydney
Absolutely beautiful, the singing the arrangement. When I listen I always think of my beautiful wife of 55 years who passed away 13 months ago. She is always in my heart.
Mr Ford is absolutely impeccable in his diction, phrasing, intonation and stage presence. I'm sure Sinatra or Tony Bennett would endorse his superb singing. Glad to know singers of this class are still walking the planet!
Absolutely spot on Catherine. Have been to many JWO concerts and have been seated almost directly above the strings. They are, perhaps with the exception of the Vienna Philharmonic the BEST string section in the world.
Back again for another visit to renew my faith and pay honor to Western Culture. Thanks John Wilson for reminding today's generation of how great music can really be!
all praise to the incredible orchestrations of the great great Conrad Salinger..the best orchestrator of film musicals ever...the lush sound of the best of these classic films was mostly his...a true genius.....immense thanks to John Wilson for literally un-earthing and re-assembling these masterpieces that were so cavalierly discarded by MGM and used as landfill when they disposed of their music library in the late 1960's....
If you do not see it, you do not believe, how well you can hear and see this wonderful orchestra of John Wilson with its beautiful songs, thank you very much for uploading these videos
Oh my gosh, what a dazzling performance. Even better with big screen TV and sound bar. Sound and camerawork was simply outstanding. I would have loved to have been there to watch. Bravo!
I think this is the most beautiful piece of music I've ever heard. John Wilson is a genius and music just exudes from him and every player and singer, from the soul, a gift from heaven for us.
And Conrad Salinger's arrangement is exquisite. Also the mixer gets props for magic reproduction of this wonderful piece in a live audience situation. All in all, pure heaven~!
This is Harry Warren’s melody that he wrote in 1943 as one of his first MGM assignments. Freed wrote the lyric. This was the Connie Salinger arrangement for the Fred Astaire treatment in “Ziegfeld Follies.”
Warms my heart that this BEAUTIFUL piece of music that’s 76 years old is still remembered today. This made me focus on the music for once instead of the iconic Fred and Lucille and really appreciate its breathtaking beauty. 7:37 is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard, btw.
Sweet and soothing...simply beautiful as sung by Matt Ford...and played by John Wilson's Orchestra...I keep on listening to this song "This Heart of Mine " as it brings memories of the Golden Era of the movies....
How lucky can we be? A great Harry Warren song played so beautifully by the John Wilson Orchestra and sung by Matthew Ford with the Maida Vale Singers. Doesn't get any better.
@@frankrobinson6841 This video sorely needed and enjoyed this day. Wish everyone in every country could enjoy these few minutes. Bravo to director. To all, good health!
The best orchestra I've ever heard. And I love Harry Warren's music. The song "This Heart Of Mine" is composed heavenly. And John Wilson conducts with so much heart❤ Bravo Mr. Wilson👏👏👏
The Most Beautiful Hollywood Swing Song Ever ❤. The Song Is So Beautiful, That You Could Only Cry 😢. Thank You John Wilson Orchestra For Performing The Song Of Harry Warren So Nice. And It's A Tribute To The Best Dancer In The Golden Age of Hollywood, Mr. Fred Astaire🕺❤.
What a fantastic orchestra thank god for these musicians that they can bring music to life and thank you for all the wonderful singers bless you all.❤💙❤💙
cannot believe there are 6 dislikes. Do they have something wrong with their hearing! This is so WONDERFUL. So glad you have reproduced it from that tiny screen and it includes the intro. Have listened to it many, many times and it always moves me to tears. So, so beautiful. Just adore the John Wilson orchestra and this arrangement. It was one of my Mum's favourites. Just wish she could have heard this.
@@richardlee8495 we live in a world of incessant mass marketing . To have personal taste is an anomaly. That goes far beyond music . For example in these times less should be more .

This "ear-candy" is JAW-DROPPING. Absolutely stunning!!! I recently watched the MGM filM, "The Ziegfield Follies" and although The Astaire/Bremer dance sequence is magical in it's own right, when watching the film, the visual overpowers the music. Listening to the music by itself, it takes on a whole new dimension. The Conrad Salinger orchestration is one of the most uplifting I've ever heard. It actually brought me to tears of joy and .... sadness. Yes sadness at hearing the majesty American Pop music once achieved in its "Golden Age" and the depths to which it has finally sunk. As an American songwriter and music publisher, I offer major kudos and gratitude to John Wilson for reminding us of what Western Culture was once capable of producing. I'm new to The John Wilson Orchestra, but I'm hoping he will be doing a West Coast American tour in 2019. I sure hope a CD of this concert is available.
well, it's a good song, and well done in the movie, even if Fred and Bremer seem to be playing out a contrived scenario. check out their Limehouse Blues number in the same film. the best thing in it, and a stellar achievement in its own right. Wilson's version of this seems a bit bombastic, and the singer soloist was not exactly to swoon over. love the song, though. nice to hear it in an orchestral setting, and nice chorus as well. i would have liked to have heard Judy Garland do it. maybe she did.
@@r4b32t11 Hear, Hear, Justin. In many ways it's as near as you could get to a classical overture, but still keep it's roots in popular music culture. That amazing key change just after 8:10 blows me away!
Fantastic. Beautiful music never ends and will contnue to thrive as long as we have John Wilson and such a great ensenble of musicians who love what they do.
I try to revisit this webpage every 3 to 6 months because I can't remember any musical piece and performance that moves me more profoundly than this one. No concerto or symphony has ever moved me as strongly as this brilliant Conrad Salinger orchestration. The exhilaration this piece and performance brings me is immeasurable, but it comes with a great sense of sadness that American (and Western culture) could have reached such a musical zenith back in the 1940's, only to descend to the depth's and depravity of today's American Pop music. What a travesty.
I don't think there's a combination of voice and orchestra that I like better! I must have listened to it a couple of hundred times! Now all we need are ice skaters - WHERE ARE TORVIL AND DEAN!!!!
It's such a treat for me to be able to see this amazing conductor with his orchestra and the song all so wonderful uve made this person so happy thank you
Beautifully done and equal to the movie version with Fred Astaire and Lucille Bremer. Next step - add two amazing dancers like Astaire and Bremer to the mix.
The only thing is, once you have heard JWO live you know you will never hear a better Orchestra. This was our first Live JWO Concert and we have been to every Prom since apart from "My Fair Lady" when we were away on holiday. Sadly that was the only one not to be televised due to TV Rights issues.
This is true. The John Wilson Orchestra is by far the best orchestra you can hear live. And John Wilson conducts with so much heart❤ that it is difficult not to cry😢. An unforgettable experience.
I don't know if its always for his orchestra, but for one of his Proms performances most of the violinists in Wilson's orchestra were 1st violins in other orchestras. Imagine what Wilson's ability has to be to keep that many egos in check.
Thank you SO MUCH for posting this! I adore this piece, even back when Fred Astaire originally sang it. John Wilson and the JWO along with Matt Fire and the Maida Vale Singers, do it the best and do it justice better than any other out there. Its lush, lilting, sophisticated, dreamy and cinematic (of course, it comes from Hollywood and has that orchestral lustre & patina.). This Heart of Mine, along with the *John Wilson Orchestra* , has my heart, ears and purse. Lol! Grande merci. Jen in OH
I love this kind of music, far superior to 99% of modern music. I have been to a number of JWO concerts, which seem to have been halted by the pandemic and I miss them so much. John Wilson is still working as a conductor, but mainly of classical music. This is equally worthy, of course, but doesn't have the same joie de vivre of the music of the 1920s to the 1950s. My other favourites include: Little Tin Box, Someone to Watch Over Me, The Man That Got Away, If Ever I Would Leave You, Strike Up the Band and The Man I Love. Happy days!
I don't know how many musicians there are but it sounds really very good thanks to John Wilson, if you study and are demanding you achieve these things in addition to being talented, thanks to the Choirs, Musicians, I saw it a bit late but it is still better to see them to learn
Absolutely wonderful. I listen to any JWO music frequently. Bonus to be able to get up close and personal with the players and John and Matt. Not possible from the audience so something to be said for TV.
Thank you so much for posting this. We have so much to be grateful to Mr.Wilson for but this video shines as being a rich ensemble piece for the entire band. Sure, we love all the 'greatest MGM plus hits' but here's one of the lesser known routines allowed full bloom. Bravo!!
Harry Warren wrote the music, Arthur Freed the words and Conrad Salinger the arrangement, but can someone say who who trancribed it as well, a real labour of love! It's the way it goes from 3/4 to 4/4 then back to 3/4 that greatly enhances my enjoyment of it.
everything that John Wilson does with his incredible orchestra is very good, if he could implement the Spanish Song "Libre" by Nino Bravo who sang it in the 70s, a tribute to him and to all the countries that are under civil and military dictatorships such as currently the US, Hong Kong, Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, China
In his field, what an outstanding singer Matt is - simply sublime? Compare his voice to the misguided souls that worship the voices that Simon Cowell and his ilk promote.
If you get a chance compare a photo of John Wilson and the actor who played the father on the U.S. sitcom Denis the Menace. I swear they must have been separated at birth.

It allows one to escape to a world of grace charm and romance. An ethos that's a million miles away from todays brash cynical society.
I'm addicted to this piece and just can't get it out of my head.
it is truly a wonderful song. MGM craftmanship at its best.
Oh my gosh, what a dazzling performance. Even better with big screen TV and sound bar. Sound and camerawork was simply outstanding. I would have loved to have been there to watch. Bravo!

I was brought up on the great musicals of stage and screen. We are so fortunate to be alive now.
This music has no equal it is far superior to any of todays music, and John Wilson portrays it well with like minded people. xxx

That was the best 13 minutes I've spent in many months of UA-cam watching.
Totally agree Noe,beautiful orchestration,and of course Matt Fords voice wonderful,beautiful diction and tone...could listen all day
Really great to see that this wonderful music is being kept alive. This is a most pleasant arrangement played by a 1st class orchestra.

A sumptuous, luxuriant, treatment which would surely have delighted Harry Warren.

Brillante version !
Wonderful remake of a lovely melody! Only missing are Fred Astaire and Lucille Bremer!
I sent it to her granddaughter. I watch them dance to it on UA-cam

Nothing !!
