Fun fact famous Zombie film director George Romero died while listening to this soundtrack. I can't blame him too, it's beautiful.
Considered as one of John Wayne’s most prominent roles and John Ford’s most celebrated movies “The Quiet” man surely deservingly is. The story, it’s setting, the (Academy Award winning) on-location-cinematography are just a great pleasure to look at. So are the characters played wonderfully by Wayne, Maureen O’Hara, Victor McLaglen and Barry Fitzgerald (as the most Irish Irishman you ever saw).
The music was composed by Ford-collaborator Victor Young, who found the tone of the movie perfectly (“The Big Fight”, based on “The Rakes of Mallow”, would also inspire Steven Spielberg for a fighting scene in “1941”). Unfortunately, to this day only eight Young-conducted cues of the score have been released, of which not even the opening music is included. But absolute highlights as the gorgeous “My Mother”, “St, Patrick’s Day” and “Danaher’s House”. The total amount of music is 16 minutes, so what you are going to hear is almost everything there is. Enjoy!
You forgot to mention Ward Bond
The fifties were the golden age of the US-American film music. This beautiful masterpiece is a good example thereof.
Yes if you 15 in 1950 and you liked going to the movies, you have been there almost daily ,all that good shit that came out then,unlike the political left-wing agenda crap of today,s woke
If that violin/viola doesn't bring a tear to your eyes, please check yourself for a pulse. Such incredibly sweet music. And I'm not even Irish. Eastern European Jew by genetics. It's gorgeous music.
Thank you, one of my favorite movies. I hope everyone has a lovely weekend...

Thank you Soundtrack Fred for all you do.
Many Thanks for posting this wonderful Suite!! Some of Victor Young's best work.
Thank you! Lovely music from a lovely film.
RIP dear George A Romero
Love your channel. Thanks for this and the other posts.
One of my favorite OST. I own the LP mentioned here, it is a real bargain! Two major Victor Young masterpieces in one record. Too bad it has not (if I don't mistake) been re-released on CD. This music make my skin goosebumps! Such gorgeous musical themes (even if reused)!
Thank you Fred for sharing!
Hi Bernard my husband has this on CD in his collection.
It’s so full of themes from Rio Grande, also on CD, just beautiful.
Madds🥰👵
My favorite country movie at all times, the first track "Forlorn Mary Kate's Lament" is personally my favorite one, is touches me everytime I listen to it, the 50s will remain the golden times
Brilliant..but full of themes from all Fords great films. Rio Grande, Fort Apache, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon..etc.etc.
Just marvellous.
Thank you
One of things l,ve got off my bucket list visiting were this was filmed oh!! what a joy,to be were john Wayne once stood is a great achievement for a new Zealand boy who knew nothing of john Wayne outside brannigan,and hatari one on at the movies and don't know the reason why l went and the other on tv one weekend,thought it was brilliant,what a way to spend your life catching animals,my god when you see the shit on at the movies these days,makes you long for this
Gotta watch The Searchers. My favorite
Die fünfziger Jahre waren die goldene Epoche der US-amerikanischen Filimmusik. Dieses wunderschöne Meisterwerk ist ein gutes Beispiel davon.
YESSSSS!!! Absolutely love this movie!! Thanks so much for posting 😊 Pls post singing in the rain soundtrack
Hello Ava,
it's a great idea and a personal favorite. But the score contains two major problems: First, there is not too much incidental music on which we could concentrate - just natural for a musical picture - and thus second, it is one of the greatest musicals of all times, featuring hit song after hit song. There could be never a music video done, featuring just some of the legendary performances.
It's not a "no" by any meaning but it seems almost impossible for me to do, regarding a satisfying result. But the day may come...
Best!
Fred
@@SoundtrackFred totally understand!!! Thx for posting as much as u do 🙂
I've been enjoying your channel immensely for years, without ever commenting to thank you for your much-appreciated work ... so I wanted to do so now. It always touches my heart when you post a Victor Young score. For some reason, he seems to be somewhat overlooked and underappreciated by film music historians, and whoever holds the power to reissue soundtracks. Maybe it's because he often has a tendency toward unabashed sweetness and sentimentality, as evidenced in this lovely score (from a delightfully sentimental film). Anyway, I'm a terrible softie and I love his music. I'm glad you appreciate Mr. Young and keep his work alive.
Hello ifwishesweretimemachines and thank you so very much for your very warm words. I really appreciate them!
Mr. Young surely was one of the great figures in Hollywood. He seems not being remembered well, as he died in the 50s, I am sure of that. It was just before "mega" soundtracks like Ben Hur or Lawrence of Arabia were produced, earning immense commercial successes (speaking also about the soundtracks). I guess Mr. Young just didn't made it to that era, similar to Herbert Stothart: He was one of the greatest of his time but died in 1949. Gladly he isn't forgotten because of his outstanding achievement for "The Wizard Of Oz" but otherwise... So I guess he and Young are facing the same destiny. But that's just a thought of mine.
Thank you again for everything and especially enjoying the videos!
Best always!
Fred
@@SoundtrackFred You're very welcome! Thank you for your insights on Mr. Young, and the equally talented Herbert Stothart. I do wish he would be more appreciated as well. I just the other day watched "The Green Years," which he scored beautifully ... but no soundtrack seems to be available on UA-cam or elsewhere - unless, of course, you can get your hands on it somehow. I never knew before looking him up that Stothart was from Milwaukee, WI, which also happens to be my hometown. Nobody seems to remember him there. Ah well, at least there are still some of us who do!
Hello again and right you are!
Unfortunately, as most pre 50's- and Stothart scores in general there is no release of "The Green Years" music at all. But luckily there are indeed some releases of original Stothart music (also conducted by him) that were released (mainly by FSM records), which are very worth checking out!
Fred
Inspiring!
Finally got this score on CD
Amen
Love the soundtrack, but why is the Samson & Delilah picture up?
"The Quiet Man" opening music is unavailable?! That's terrible!
Great movie, great music. Sod all to do with (real) Ireland, but still a great film
Given a preventive "Like".
Doing this for George Romero.
This makes the opium swim
They don't make them like that anymore or have the actors to do it.
um... The wrong soundtrack cover is in the video. Great score, though!
Hi Jace,
well it depends!
I understand the confusion as title and image of "Samson and Delilah" are taking the obvious lead. But if you look closely "The Quiet Man" finds a small mention at the right side of the cover as well.
Wishing you the best!
Fred
@@SoundtrackFred Okay, thanks! I see now!
Crazy knowing George Romero died while listening to this
😊q
Not the quiet man.
