Kind of how I feel about the music from Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, the music he created for the Olympics in the 80s that the still use today. Popular culture music that has been a part of our lives.
The person who you think is conductor is not really a conductor. He is a wizard casting a spell on these muggle with instruments. He even has a wand with him!
I have a baton from my university orchestra conductor, and honestly, if does feel an awful like like a wand. I wave it around and suddenly a roomful of really gifted musicians are following my every move. If that's not magic, I don't know what is.
I play cello in an orquestra... And I'm afraid of the cello part, just listening the violins part!!! It's insane!!! Absolutely beautiful, but Jhon Williams don't have mercy on the violins , violas and cellos score! 😮
Its just amazing how John William's music brings the Harry Potter franchise so much life. Harry Potter wouldn't be really more iconic without the musical scoring
Absolutely; along with Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Jaws, E.T, Schindler's List, and so many more! He brought so much light and soul to the 21st century! He is of the highest order! 2nd to none.
@@Peter-ff1tp While the books were best sellers, it was the films that propel them to record breaking heights. I still remember after the release of the first movie sales of the books skyrocketed.
John Williams just has the magic in his hands to bring film scores to life: I mean Star Wars, Superman, E.T, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Schindler's List, etc. Without his music, these films would be nothing. The music is just part of what makes all these films as iconic as they are ~~ I mean from Hedwig's Theme, just that first part, you already know what's to come.
@@jonathandavis9885 I just finished watching Home Alone 1 and 2 for Christmas and realized that the music ads so much to the scenes. So I looked it up and found out it was the guy who did the same music for all the films you mentioned. Take away the music and Home Alone is just a horror movie about a kid torturing two thieves 😂.
Yes, John Williams and Chris Columbus turned Harry Potter's story into my favorite Christmas fairytale, but, just as you said, contrast between the first two movies and the rest is jarring(((
@@clubsnatcher While I agree that throwing away some themes of the first two was a bad idea, the third film has the best score without a doubt and I will die on that hill.
@@clubsnatcher Lol I just think that HP3's score fits perfectly with that film and it feels like a good transition from "boyhood" to "teenager". There are certain cues and themes that are among my favorites from Williams. But I get why someone wouldn't enjoy the score of that film since it completely ignores a lot of the previous themes.
you do realise it wasn't this orchestra that recorded the score, right? and even the studio orchestra that did, they just performed it, John wrote and orchestrated it
Generally? Their comment seemed pretty cut and dry and is indisputably false. Other than John, these people had zero impact on the movie score or your childhood.
@@winxwest2964OP never specified which orchestra is "the orchestra". It might be the one that was part of the original recording. And speaking generally about orchestras in film music, it is true.
Actually exists. They are still on tour, I’m just too broke to spend another €60 to watch a movie I get for free on prime with 5.1 Dolby surround at home.....
John Williams has given us the themes to sooooo many of our most precious memories. Jurassic Park, Jaws, Harry Potter, Hook, Home Alone, Star Wars….man this list is biiiiiiigg
Forget politics, civilisation, space travel and high-tech gadgets... THIS is the height of human creativity and greatness. Magic! 2:43 - 2:48 just gets me every time.
I saw the first movie with live orchestra today in Tokyo. Was my first time watching Harry potter. But i have listened to the soundtrack for years because i love John Williams. It was amazing today, really beautiful. John Williams' music makes everything just feel like magic. Can you imagine JP, Home Alone,ET etc without those amazing pieces of music ! it was so good today it was almost overwhelming and made you want to cry. Thanks John, you're my hero !
Yep, AND Jurassic Park, AND Indiana Jones, AND Superman, AND Jaws, AND Schindler’s List, AND E.T., AND Lincoln, and so much more. Pretty much everything he has scored is a block buster. The man has over 50 Oscar nominations.
14MovieMusic This is actually the soundtrack of the 1st Harry Potter movie as you can read in the title. So it can’t be the entrance to the chamber of secret. It’s the scene at the end, when Harry gets the sorcerers stone I guess.
F. S. Schulz I’ve watched Sorcerer’s Stone and Chamber of Secrets many time and I never heard this theme in SS. Maybe they mix whole John Williams’ themes from movie 1-3 in the performance.
He has been on top of his game working at genius level since 1975. It’s amazing that he has defined a major part of childhood for multiple generations. 70’s(Jaws, Superman and Star Wars) 80’s (Indiana Jones and ET) 90’s (Home Alone and Jurassic Park) 00’s(Harry Potter). Is he the one thing that Gen-X, Millenials and Gen-Z agree on? 😂😂
The soundtrack to a film is a crucial part of the storytelling. A composer’s music can evoke emotions, tell a narrative, create a mood on its own. The musical score can literally make or break a viewing experience. Probably the most prolific film symphonist of all time, John Williams has written music for over 100 motion pictures. He is particularly known for his huge orchestral pieces tailored perfectly to the score, oftentimes watching the entire oeuvre without a soundtrack to decide what is best for it. The Juilliard-trained American pianist has created some of the most iconic pieces of music in the 🌎 world, including the theme to “Star Wars”, “Jaws” and “HARRY POTTER”. His first big feature was “Sugarland Express” in 1974. From there on, he has crafted the instrumental for the “Star Wars” series, “Jurassic Park”, “E.T.”, “Superman”, “Indiana Jones”, “Home Alone”, “Schindler’s List”, “Saving Private Ryan”, and on and on and on… Mr Williams has been nominated for 52 Oscars (only a few less than Walt Disney) and has earned 25 Grammys. Director Steven Spielberg and John Towner Williams have had an utterly successful running partnership since the 1970s, and have worked together on over 30 motion pictures. A FANTASTIC DREAM TEAM‼️ In a word or three… A REVERED MAESTRO❕ 💙🎬💛
even without the music and the movie together at once you can still feel the energy this score presents even if it's dark and musters or warm and friendly, truly a master pice!
This music is so wholesome, could listen to hundreds of hours and still feel under my skin...brings backs so many cherished childhood memories! RIP to the amazing actors who contributed so much to this masterpiece of a wizarding franchise!
John Williams it's a genius ❤️🍷 I admire him so much, what a talent, all his plays are remarkable and beautiful, without his music the movies couldn't have soul, you don't have to see the movie only hearing the music you know which movie is, it's amazing!!! Master John Williams you are amazing!!!
One thing we should always.be grateful about that John’s powerful influence still be highly admired in today’s film music industry. He is now literally the only live composer who is really witness the bold improvement of Hollywood classics. I wish I can chat with him one day in private. What a great legend. Thank you John, for giving me the reason to be a composer!!!
What was this?! Such a perfect performance PLUS amazing light-work! 2017?! Nah, I should have watched this before. Oh, and great camera-work too! Amazing, well done. I'll show this to my friends. They are from Hogwarts too and will understand.
I’m honestly offended the suite wasn’t ended with “Leaving Hogwarts”. That piece for me sums up the entire series. Being a composer and Potter head, its beauty and sense of accomplishment makes me cry every time!
Every movie that highlighted in my childhood has John William's magical music. Listening to this, I got goosebumps of goosebumps. Incredible. Can't even imagine movies without his music.
I've always admired all of the musicians, talented people with magical talents, and mind that creates such a wonderful, majestics music for us to listened, experienced to and appreciates. Honestly, this world would be empty without it.
No doubt about it.....John Williams is a wizard of the highest order.
H Potre Same, and now I get to share it with my younger sister.
Merlin first class, no doubt.
From my point of view he is a Jedi grandmaster
You mean the "emperial wizard,"

With no John Williams Harry Potter and Star Wars movies would be nothing.

And dont forget the dinosaurs
What about Superman? :D
@@devla18 Definitely. The Superman movies are otherwise horrible. :D
You could say that about ANY film.

Can you imagine a screening of the movie with live orchestra.

Everything but home alone is recognizable
John Williams, you have been granted Order of Merlin, First class, and the title of minister for magic.
John's music creates fantasy and magic worldwide. He's a legend
John Williams Baton is more powerful then the elder wand just saying
The conductor is using the elder wand to conduct the orchestra.

Just like my guys said in one of their 'Epic Rap Battles of History', Steven Spielberg should half of his billions to John Williams! ; D
And the Olympic theme, NBC Sunday Night Football, NBC News Them, etc.
The real question is: wtf is going on with the moon on the screen?

In the music, this is titled: II. The Sorcerer's Stone

F. S. Schulz I’ve watched Sorcerer’s Stone and Chamber of Secrets many time and I never heard this theme in SS. Maybe they mix whole John Williams’ themes from movie 1-3 in the performance.
John bloody Williams in the late 90s and early 2000s was on another level
Imagine Williams and Mozart jamming!
John Williams and Jerry Goldsmith together!
This tune is just so finely crafted it gives me chills every single time.
Supposedly he told the producers that the first theme was a waltz and they couldn't believe it! But it works, doesn't it?

world class musicians world class composing... it doesn't get better than that

They picked the perfect shade of blue reading light for this performance, it adds to the mystique!
