One thing they got the most accurate of all these cinematic recreations was where the band was located when they played, was next to the port side entrance of the Grand Staircase.
The band went in between where the first class lounge raised roof was, and in between the gym on the starboard side.
I have heard that its more likely that they played a bit further aft and starboard
That’s actually inaccurate. The band played mostly inside the Boat Deck level of the Grand Staircase were the piano was located, and only came out during the last 20 minutes and they were on the starboard side.
The way the 1953 one starts normal but when they play a jazz start but realy sad version but when it starts it just shows a group of people on a lifeboat turning around crying is sad cause you are far away so you can hear the echos of the music when it cuts to people singing the song🤧
The one thing that bugs me about nearly every film showing the band is that the band members (the majority of whom were in their 20s and 30s) are depicted as being much older.
In the 1976 novel "Raise the Titanic!", which the 1980 film was based on, a character named Dr. John Vogel, who specializes in restoring historic instruments, is given a cornet salvaged from the ocean floor that belonged to a fictional member of Titanic's band, Graham Farley. Vogel says that while he tests the instruments he restores, he cannot bring himself to play the cornet that symbolizes a small but heroic act during one of the greatest maritime disasters in history.
While very much a work of fiction, considering there were no brass instruments in Titanic's band, this still very well sums up how the heroism of Titanic's band has made them legendary to this day. They absolutely did not have to do what they did. Nobody really needed the band playing during the evacuation. But they chose to, knowing there was nothing else they could do at that time. May we never forget them and everyone who died with the Titanic on this day 112 years ago.
Top honors to the cast from "A Night To Remember." And when Wallace Hartley plays the Church of England version of "NMGTT" his violin sounds like it's weeping. Brings me to tears every time.
I DO have to give a shout-out to the Wallace Hartley character in 1997's "Titanic." When the band finishes "NMGTT" he says:
"Gentlemen, it has been a priviledge playing with you tonight!"
And so it must have been. It's always a priviledge to be in the company of heroes.

Thank you :3
A night to remember and camerons titanic are my favorites! 1953 is very sad as well.
Same goes for 1929 Atlantic
The best scenes are from A night to remember and Titanic 1997
supposedly that was the real one
Ok the 1953 Verison must be the most saddest
Yeah, it really is with how somber the music is
its very unrealistic and stupid tho
@@CaseNancarrow I know but I kinda like it better and is definitely inspired by the 1929 Verison.
Imagine if some or all of the band members had been able to make it to some lifeboats, and they played their instruments from different lifeboats spread out among the water.
No, that's stupid
@@Epquik At least 13 people disagree with you.
@@EpquikShut up
The Legend of the Titanic (1999) is as close as we can get to that
Maybe they'd play nearer thy god to thee while each are in different lifeboats.
I find it interesting how many versions include brass or woodwind in the band, when they only played strings.
Another: The funnel collapses
Next year
@@CaptainJZH the next Century 🗿

Idea for a future video: if I recall a woman in Titanic (1997) asked for the lifeboat to be held so she could get her bag and the officer dumps her into the boat anyway
Yes, a woman asks Second Officer Lightoller if he can hold the boat so she can get her luggage. He responds by lifting her up, plunking her down in the lifeboat and demanding that she sit down. A bit harsh, but he knows there's no time for such nonsense in an emergency!
There's also a brief scene of him angrily tossing suitcases overboard, as they're taking up too much room in the lifeboats.
that scene is depicted in the 1997 film.
@@Hirundo-demersalisThere's a scene from a crashed plane floating in the water (maybe the Miracle on the Hudson?) where some guy passes his case out to a crewmember, who promptly dumps it in the water
Ah, what a fitting way to end Titanic Month although that full orchestra in the 1943 movie and that singing in Titanic: The Legend Goes On is quite ridiculous, I've certainly enjoyed seeing these again with how intriguing the different depictions have always been
I still wonder why Molly not try to escape from Titanic
@@kanapkuba4072 I ask myself that same question, since her Dalmatians did survive.
Video concepts: People playing with ice. And The Funnels Breaking. (There is also a funnel breaking in the 1996 Verison if you probably miss it. It happens before the final plunge.
The 1953 is the saddest and the legend of the titanic violinists are on the lifeboat. And the legend goes on has a lady singing on a titanic?!?
Another excellent video in this series! Well done!
Perhaps the next one should be about
Collapsible B, showing it being launched, boarded and the survivors balancing on top of it. Absolutely unbelievable and harrowing story of survival and human endurance!
Next year!
At 4:24, when they released the Blu-Ray version of S.O.S. Titanic I wish they didn't alter the angle of it.
It’s just showing the differently edited versions of the scene in the television and theatrical cuts.
The Night to Remember is how we would hope it happened, but it was likely much more chaotic and unorganized. The sight of the ship sinking while that song plays over the water must have been profound for the lifeboat passengers.
1997 did it best
James Cameron just lifted it from A Night to Remember.
No It Is Not
@obaidulhoquebhuiyan7095 yes it is
No. Only A Night To Remember played the right version of Nearer my God to thee.
1943 made me cry just look at it😢
It's interesting that "In Nacht und Eis" has a much different version of Nearer My God to thee, having a different verse as it says, "That shall be the answer, my banner as you also lead me here," which is odd because the 1st verse in the 3 main versions (Horuby, Propior Deo, and Bethany) follow the same lyrics but a different tune. But this version shows many different lyrics and a possibly different tune on the screen, as they have shown us on the music sheet. So if it is possible back in 1912 there were actually 4 versions of the hymn but the other one shown in In Nacht und Eis probably had faded into view as the public back then who were mostly Catholics or Anglican in Britain would have known Bethany and Horuby better.
Also, why didn't you show the television version of A Night to Remember in 1956 as it too showed the band and was the 1st one after S.O.S. Titanic to us "Autumn"? And by the way, this isn't a song d'automne; it's a hymn tune called Autumn, and no, Autumn isn't actually a hymn but a hymn tune. Back in the day, for a hymn, you would have the lyrics sheet and a hymn tune for the lyrics. The hymn tune Autumn was used once for hymns like "Hail Thou Once Despised Jesus" and "God of Mercy and Compassion," which was the version used in S.O.S. Titanic; it's even listed on the movie soundtrack called "God of Mercy." Oh and also the Band of the 2012 version of Titanic sounded like they were actually going to play song d'automne but the tune went different entirely.
The only thing I would say are missing from this clip is The band scene from A Night To Remember the Kraft Television Special (I am aware the film version is here!).
Still a great video! I always watch Titanic films/TV shows for the musicians.
Let's do the South Hampton scene of the Titanic film and TV next year.
Also the 1953 one can show what the people anboard still saw😭
Fact: There was an argument with people whether the final song was Autumn or Nearer My God To Thee. Survivors like Harold Bride said it was Autumn. It was featured in the book version of A Night to Remember but instead they put Nearer My God To Thee. Nearer My God To Thee has three different versions and two of them are British versions. They're the most likely ones.
Ok the 1953 Verison was definitely inspired by the 1929 Verison .
You forgot ANTR (1956) and TSOTT: YAT (1955)
A Night to Remember Kraft Television Theatre?
You had to include those god damned animated films. ಠ_ಠ
And then there's the "lol...what?" 1999 animated clip
Finally
The rose and jack sadness is nothing comprerred to the band scene of the 1953 one
I was born on the 15th of April!
Make a video about the funnels falling (1958-1997) (There's also a funnel breaking in the 1996 Verison. It happeneds before the final plunge. And i think you should also include The raise the titanic deleted scene
Next year lol
One big issue is Titanic 1953 and Titanic 1943 shows the band playing brass on the deck. Major error.
Should we even acknowledge the animated Titanic movies?
I completely forgot that the band got a lifeboat to themselves in the 1999 film.
One thing I hate about Titanic 1953 is that damn annoying siren that continually goes off during the sinking portion of the film.
I like this series. Pls make more 😢
Next year!
@@CaptainJZHVideo Concept: The Funnels Breaks 1958-1997 (There's Also One in the 1996 Verison. It happens before the final plunge.
Пассажиры так не пели они боролись за жизнь😢
Mine is TITANIC 1997🚢🧊
Pls Add Next ‘Every Titanic Plunge’ Ok?
Did that last year
Oop 1953 not 43
В гитлеровской Германии в 1943-м сняли "Титаник"? 👀 Символично.
😢😢😢😢😢
You should do a compilation of fictional love stories featured in most Titanic movies.
Btw there is actually somebody who steals ur titanic tropes videos
wait what, who?
@@CaptainJZH Marcelon ski Studio
Haha called them out and got them to take the videos down
Jdjwiush Jdjwiush que é o que
What would've happened if the band members got onto the lifeboats? Not like in the legend of titanic, NO.

😢😢😢😢😢
