January 1960. This No 1 hit signalled the start of the Swinging Sixties.
What an awesome decade. I am building a time machine to go back.
*Who's with me ???*
The Swinging 60s didnt start until 1964. This tune is pure 1950s.
Hey, where did you go?
Possibly the best two and a half minutes of music you will hear in your life.
When I hear this it feels like all my worries are gone and I’m spending my time with my mom ❤
*What a beautiful theme - it invokes feelings of joy, bliss and happiness in me - anyone else feel the same ?*
I feel sad, I was seventeen when I saw A summer place, the movie, and that music reminds me to an unbelievable past. I'm 77 now and I lost all those illusions I had that time. Pardon my poor English, I'm brazilian. ((Rio, 24/aug/2020).
@@lucianoantoniomoraeszanell2374 I absolutely agree with you - it does transport one to the past, reminiscing those nostalgic joyful moments :)
p.s. your English is great - never underestimate yourself :)
It brings me baxk to 1960.
I could not put it any better myself. Back to the days of fairly innocent joys!! The musicians should be very proud of themselves. A great pity the writer,Max Steiner,is dead.
Takes me back to the early 70's living in small town eastern Ontario. In my childlike naïtivity, the world seemed closer and more secure than it seems today.
Is it sad to admit that I’ve been looking for this song my whole life? I’m 31. It reminds me of the childhood I didn’t get to have.
I requested this song to play while sitting in a room waiting for my wedding ceremony to start. I will never, ever forget that moment for as long as I live. We just celebrated our 5 year anniversary last month! WooHoo!!!! I love my husband more than anything in this world!
This is such a great idea, i want to use this at my wedding too.
so nice to hear congratulations to you both and many happy times ahead for both of you god bless 🌞🦄🌈🦜☯️🙏
Lovely song very uplifting beautiful choice 💖
Super
I do too
One of the most beautiful melodies I have ever heard. This is my favorite song.
Mine as well, regards to you from Australia 🇦🇺.
@@w.bridges9118 regards from the USA!
really good tune, sounds fantastic on electric guitar with reverb and delay
good on you love lovley description god bless you 💖💞⚘🦄🌈🦜🌞☯️🙏
Have to agree !
Probably in the top 10 all time instrumentals ever produced and played. The orchestration is absolutely perfect
Magnífica ❤❤❤
Amoooo❤❤❤❤❤
It’s not an instrumental
I agree 😊
Love is Blue- Paul Mauriat is better
The first time I heard this song was when it first came out. I was a little kid and the whole family was in the car for a Sunday drive. I looked around the car as the music played and I could have sworn I was in Heaven.
Some of my best memories were similar. Summers long ago with family when we were children.
Thanks keith
You were in Heaven.
I heard this song when it first came out in '58 or '59 when I began going to school dances-- and it is my all time favorite to this day.
you were
Back in September 1959 I was 12 years old, and this beautiful instrumental would lull me to sleep. It still has the same effect.
You must have been the first to hear it, because it was not released until shortly after it was recorded on Sep. 11, 1959! Was not a hit in entering the Hot 100 (at 96) until Jan. 11, 1960. But within 6 weeks it leaped to #1 for the week of Feb. 22, and stayed at #1 through its last week on Apr. 18, for 9 consecutive weeks. The record for any instrumental after the Hot 100 started in Aug. 1958.
I wish you a long life and listen to everything that is beautiful and bright like you
So you are 12 years older than me 😂
Was a kid in the 1960's listening to this masterpiece. I wake up today and I'm in my sixties. How did all go so fast?? Where are my parents? SImpler times then, my friends..
Oh, I know. Just had a garage sale this weekend ad a lot of stuff from my youth went out...
I love this song....
It reminds me when I would sit with my mother as a teenager and listen to instrumental music as the sun went down.. It was so peaceful... I miss her..
i am so sorry mate your mum would be looking down smiling and proud of you mate stay strong mate 🌈😇🙏
Very kind of you Geoff. My Mom is always with me
It is magnificent, God bless.
Thank you Francine

This song perfectly captures a cool 5pm summer breeze.
This melody is magic for me: it can bring my memories back 60 years, when I was a little boy, playing with my friends and relatives in our old home on the countryside - it's all far away, but for this three minutes of music it's freshly in front of my eyes!
It. also. reminds. me. being. a. 5. or. 6. years. old. Kid, sitting. in
the. lap. of. my. Mother's. legs,
while. my. Father. drove. the. car
towards. the. Eastern. Provinces
of. Cuba. And. the. radio. was. on, playing. that. song.

I will never get tired listening to this.
So do i,i play it every time when i shower
I love this melodie so much. It makes me happy
I Hear this beautiful instrumental son g from percy faith on 1959 in my hometown teatre
Most beautiful instrumental song ever.
Better than any alcohol or drug high I've ever experienced. Listening to Percy Faith's music won't take me to skidrow unlike the other stuff.
I had forgotten how nice it was to melt away in such a beautiful sound, leaving this stupid world behind to find peace and calm in this music. Thank you
This version of the theme from A Summer Place arranged and conducted by Percy Faith and released in 1960 set a record for the longest sustained #1 position on the Billboard Hot 100 of 11 weeks, a record it held for 36 years.
9 weeks. Not 11. Feb. 1960.
The best performance ever
A magic renditions a beautiful melodic line and harmony. The closer is the tie between the Violins and French Horns.
One of my favorite instrumentals and the Percy Faith version is the best.
I remember this song playing at the department store 55 years ago with mom shopping. Memories are strongly rooted with this beautiful melody & my momma. RIP mami
1959: Written by the immortal movie composer Max Steiner when he was 71. To be more precise, the 'young lovers' theme, one of four he wrote for the movie soundtrack. Percy Faith's arrangement was perfect, and this was a monster hit through 1959 and '60. Still holds up 60 years on. Written as an instrumental; Mack Discant added lyrics later on.
Recorded on Septemebr 11, 1959.
Steiner would be composing for films for another 6 years !.
@@fromthesidelines Shortly after complete this movie
The band the Lettermen, recorded this song in 1965. Andy Williams also recorded a version of this lovely song.
Most historical info.
Yes indeed, this is a true masterpiece.
I'm in south Ariz., About 50 minutes from U.S./MEX. border. When I was a kid in mid-1960s our AM radio could get KOMA. I think it's from Oklahoma,
theme from, "A Summer Place" would come on. Later on, FM classic music stations came about. Percy Faiths', A Summer Place; sounded so good.
Stereofonic on FM.
YES, THIS IS A GREAT PIECE OF INSTUMENTAL MUSIC.
NEVER GET TIRED OF IT.
[MATTHEW, in AZ]
David Lynch sent me here... but as soon as I hit play, I realized I had already heard the song before, just never by its name. A beautiful musical moment of bliss and optimism for these dark times.
This song will always remind me of my late partner and soul mate Dawn Maria Theresa O'Neill..we lived in Tenerife for 3 years before she passed away..it was always Summer there for us..great times..RIP babe..
one of the best instruments ever recorded
this is legendary

Each time I listen to this song I feel younger and rejuvenated. The melody is awesome.
One of the most beautiful,if not the most beautiful song ever recorded.
Most beautiful
I had this played at my wedding. Love this song.
I was a little girl about 10 when I first heard this beautiful, magnificent piece of music. It brings back so much. How at peace I must have been. I still get that same feeling. WOW!!
I've loved this song since I was a child and I love it just as now as I did then. ❤❤❤
I dedicate this song to my dear Dad who loved orchestra music. Love and miss you so much!
Aww Percy Faith, such a beautiful song. That smile says it all . . . the fulfillment of earning a living by doing what one does best! Thanks for posting.
Que bella melodia inunda el alma y el corazon de felicidad
Fabulous just fabulous what fantastic music this man produced.
If there's A Heaven This Masterpiece should be Welcoming Folks Entering The Golden Gates of Eternal Piece and Solitude. I know This Much I chosed This Majestic Melody as My Song to be Played at My Funeral, It just feels Perfect. 🥰❤️
Pieces like this are the reason why Max Steiner is easily my favorite Hollywood composer. He knew how to make music that cut straight to the heart.
This song came out when I was two years old, I have heard it off and on since and still love it, it is now 2022
I was 5 and my late Dad loved this song. When I hear the song, I am transported back to the very early 60's.
When we were teenagers my girl friend & I literally melted into each other’s when we heard this beautiful music ❤️
Percy Faith. Theme from a Summer Place. This music is magical and every time I hear it it brings back the nostalgia of hearing it for the first time, a long while ago, and knowing how much I enjoy listening to it. It’s a moving and emotional tune. Lovely.
1959...a different world.
@Vintage Electronics Not for everyone, which was the point of the movie.
The year my parents were born...
Wonderful,and great mood.,...
Yes, it was a different world. I was 9 and saw the movie.
In many ways these years were so Wonderful
Percy Faith's recording of "A Summer Place" is a classic! Rest in peace, Percy.
Take me up to heaven in this to it's to beautiful ❤️ to leave behind. Amen greatest. Composer
This is one hell of a masterpiece of music such good vibes coming off this classic 👌
Can not be more beautiful song than the summer place.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL RENDITION, IT BRINGS BACK SWEET MEMORIES OF YOUTH, OF DREAMS AND HOPES, AND THE EVERLASTING BEAUTY THAT IS THERE IN NATURE!
Best selling instrumental of all time. I believe it was number one for ten straight weeks!
This is one favorite songs. It was also my Grandma’s favorite song. She passed away on March 1st. I love and miss you, Grandma. 😢
J'adore j'ai écouté cette chanson a multiple reprise lorsque j'étais gamine et je l'écoute toujours .
A song that will make you feel like crying
u got that right
questo brano in questo arrangiamento mi ricorda i momenti della mia gioventu stupendo
This is my favorite song since I was a little kid. I m 62 years old now.
Love, love, love song ❤❤🧡🧡💛💛💚💚💙💙💜💜🤎🤎🤍!!!
Oh my gosh my Dad played this at the skating rink so many times such wonderful memories I will always cherish 4 ever..what a great song...it will always remind me of him...miss you Dad...
I am a great fan of Percy Faith ! ( from Brazil )
This a timeless classic that will capture generations for ever ♥️
Hearing this song in the late 60's and early 70's. Reminds me of when my mom would put the radio on at night for us to sleep. These songs also influenced me to be a musician.
I felt the same way! The song was a signature tune on Radio Luxembourg, English nighttime program I think. Wonderful!
Brings back many many great memories.
One of the best instrumentals!
The arrangement in this master piece is absolutely perfect 🥰💞👌
The most beautiful summer melody
Sitting poolside in a beautiful setting summer sun listening to this masterpiece.
Listening this song, reminds me to my Mother..
She was always listeing this melody while she had a resting time.
(It was around 1977, when I was 5 y.o)
I missed my late Mother sooo much 😢💚🩷
Was the theme for my junior prom back in 1968, dancing with the love of my life, but could never be; God had other plans for me.
devastatingly beautiful arrangement.
This wonderful music reminds me happy and unforgettable times that never come back. I miss my parents, my distant and gold childhood, etc. Pure nostalgy...
Tema da minha vida. Música da minha vida. Amei o filme, amo a música e essa orquestra divina, que infelizmente não existe mais. No mundo de hoje não há mais espaço para a beleza e o espetáculo das grandes orquestras. Elas reinaram no mundo dos anos 1940 aos anos 1970 e nos deixaram maravilhas, como Theme from A Summer Place. Simplesmente maravilhosa.
Perfeita a sua colocação, assino embaixo. Tempos áureos que nunca mais teremos novamente
This is one of the greatest songs ever written. You have to be crazy to hate this.
As a Life filled with Ups, Downs, and Everything in Between.... Listening to This Anthem of Pease, Happiness, Melancholy which Stir One's Emotions into a Tranquil Place, A Place in your mind of Complete Unadulterated Wonder of Why Life must be a Chaotic Irregular Journey. This Pleasantly Full Melody of Utterly Complete Happiness and a Deep Feeling of a Better Earth for All Her Children to Live and Prosper in JOY! 🥰❤️
I think I remember in the early 60's of a couple dancing all over the floor to this recording of Summer Place. They made it seem easy to a young boy, but now when listening I can follow three different parts of the song beat. In this recording you can hear all instruments totally clear and in tune. I wonder if in 2022 any young people know this song!!!
Sends me way back in time and brings back so many fond memories. One of the most beautiful orchestra pieces of all time.
There are lyrics to this song, look up Andy Williams singing this song!
Definitely a blast from the past,,,,,
My parent's music!
Heard this song on a retro episode of Tom & Jerry, old cartoon's always lead you to great music.
This song is made for summer. He is simply brilliant and has been since 1959. My dreams and longings are always awakened.Thank you very,very much, Dear Percy. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Absolutely love this song!! I' first watched the movie "Summer Place" when I was in high school, late sixties . It's all about young love!!!
I have been listening to this tunes every day of my life. It has brought me joy and happiness in life. The best instrumental song that I have ever heard.
My fathers favorite song Just beautiful
Our Lord God selected some few musicians/composers to sanitise our souls. And Percy Faith was one of them.
This is such a beautiful theme its going to be played at my mums funeral tomorrow she loved it I will see you again mum x
I saw the movie A Summerplace when I was just a kid, just on our black and white tv and it gave me a special feeling , the romance in the movie with this tune. Always think back to that precious time that never will come back again. Best melodie ever made. Thank you so much Percy, you were so great
Our Uncle george loved this track, & I must dedicate this one for him, one love
Brings back memories of youthful summer days that seemed to last for ever....
And unfortunately go by too, too quickly...never to return.
This is where it's at .. dig it!
when they say ,,,,music is a universal language ,,of feeling ,,,of impression ,,THIS song is it!!! it DOESNT EVEN NEED WORDS ,,,imagine that ,,now this song by Percy and his orchestra ,,,was out for the 1959 - 60 year ,, makes me proud to be born that year ..in 1960 ,,,kinda makes me want to turn back the hands of time ,* if that were possible),,,or relive my childhood ,,,when things were sooo much simpler ,,people actually greeted one another ,,,without ridiculous cell phones and texting one another ,(so impersonal) people would go out of their way to help you ,,,,now they could care less ,,,cars could be worked on by anyone willing to learn ,,,,,now you need to be a damn rocket scientist to know whats under your hood ,,,and they were made of real metal ,,,not plastic ...ok they wanted to help prevent rust ,,,yah but wash it when you can and keep it clean ,,,,weve gotten lazy over the years ,,,even kids today dont want to work or have a work ethic ...ive been working since i was 14 ,,,almost 61 now and still am ,,,proud to say ,,,WELL ANYWAY ,,,THANK YOU PERCY ,,,im sure hes bo longer with us sad to say ,,,but THANK YOU FOR YOUR ARTISTRY in music and painting the picture to all ..of what life was.....back in the day
What could I add to something so complete? Beauty in heaven motion language without word’s! Consumite no additional ingredients needed BRAVO! Manifique!
I'm a young generation and for the first time hearing it on the car radio, I'm in heaven.
Theme from A Summer Place. What a wonderful melody, what harmony of instruments! Nowadays, there is no more room for the golden years of the great orchestras and their unforgettable music.
Mis Padres........inevitablemente esta melodía me lleva hacia ellos.No los veo hace más de 1 años por el Coronavirus y aunque los llame todos los dias nada cambia la emoción de abrazarlos y
besarlos. Thank you for the Music!
I Love this Beautiful Instrumental Theme, I could listen to it all day it makes me happy
So classical.. peaceful and magical.. happy days in the late 50's
Reminds me of sitting in the park with my brother and my mom watching the Merry-Go-Round go round and round to the Summer Place song I was six my brother was 4 wonderful times, I'm 64 years old now,my brother and mom are gone now but i will never forget that SUMMER PLACE.
Anyone else listening during the lock down me i am in Thailand and music helps , even had a touch of cabin fever for 5 minutes the other day, now heading into ten weeks of self isolation !
This song reminds me of my Dad, when I was very young. They played this in our home.
I remember this song I was a teenager what a classic. Thank you
Rest in peace Percy faith I loved your songs with me mom dad sister and grandma but my grandpa passed away he's with Jesus and all the angels 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
Une rêverie à ne jamais abandonner à l'arrière du bateau entre Hyères et Porquerolles.
Une attente luxueuse.
Un vrai privilège.
Je reviens vers vous.
Cet air exceptionnel, d'une très grande beauté, devrait être inscrit au répertoire du Philharmonique de Vienne tous les 01 janvier à côté des Strauss, tellement c'est désormais un classique somptueux.
J'imagine déjà son interprétation par un des plus grands orchestres du monde.
This beats what's playing on the radio today.
Playing radio to me
You know there’s some modern underrated artists that still have the retro vibe
We don't need to bash music to appreciate music
Anyone sitting on the toilet beats what passes for music today. Apologies for crudeness....
@Brian Allen its because you hardly listens to one
Not sure how you can NOT like this tune. Ah but ... there are those ... and I am NOT one of them. Love this one!
When I sit to hear that melody I can feel heaven.
This melody melts your heart...in whatever mindset you are ..it will make it better and positive.
素晴らしくて美しいメロディー
My late mother would play this on our old RCA record player in the early '60s. I still recall liking it even when the Beatles showed up. Memories of a better time in America, before JFK was killed in '63. That's when when the downhill slide started.
