The Music of John Williams - E.T., Indiana Jones, Stars Wars... – ARTE Concert

Video Overview & Insights

#STARWARS #INDIANAJONES #JOHNWILLIAMS

“

Si John Williams est super c'est parce qu'il a été le pianiste de l' orchestre de Jerry Goldsmith avant de commencer a faire ce qui la rendu célèbre et surtout très adoré pour ces compositions , il a eu un bon maître Jedi quand il n' était que padawan et maintenant il est jedi pour la musique et il manie bien la baguette comme un sabre laser 😂

— @JoseMenjibar-k8y

🇫🇷 Les fanfares menaçantes de Star Wars, l’appel héroïque d’Indiana Jones, les mélodies tendres d’E.T. ou encore les leitmotivs ensorcelants de Harry Potter : John Williams a su créer des thèmes musicaux inoubliables, indissociables des images qui ont marqué l’histoire du cinéma. En transformant la musique en émotion pure, le compositeur américain a participé à la création d’une véritable mythologie contemporaine.

Dans une ambiance enlevée et festive, l’Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France et le violoniste Nathan Mierdl, placés sous la direction de Bastien Stil, nous invitent à plonger dans cette œuvre à la fois grandiose et intimiste. Un moment magique pour revivre certaines des plus belles bandes originales du 7ᵉ art.

A pesar de ser antisionista, valoro tremendamente a John Williams, un maestro !!

Parce que Noël, c’est aussi (et surtout) partager la magie des souvenirs.

The performance is awesome but the audio mixing is not up to the standard. In several ARTE videos there are parts too loud throughout.

"Without John Williams, bikes don't really fly, nor do brooms in Quidditch matches, nor do men in red capes. There is no force. Dinosaurs do not walk the earth. We do not wonder. We do not weep. We do not believe".
Steven Spielberg

— @johnhallett5846

🇩🇪 Bedrohliche Fanfaren für Star Wars, Aufruf zum Abenteuer für Indiana Jones, sanfte Melodien für E.T. oder verzauberte Leitmotive für Harry Potter: John Williams schuf Erkennungsmelodien, die untrennbar mit prägenden Bildern der Kinogeschichte verknüpft sind. Der amerikanische Komponist leistete seinen Beitrag zur Schaffung einer Mythologie der Gegenwart, indem er Musik in Emotion pur verwandelt.

Unter der Leitung von Bastien Stil laden das Philharmonie Orchester Radio France und der Violinist Nathan Mierdl in festlicher Atmosphäre zum Eintauchen in diese ebenso grandiose wie intime Vorstellung ein. Ein magischer Moment, um einige der schönsten Erkennungsmelodien der siebten Kunstform wiederzuerleben – und an Weihnachten zugleich der perfekte Zeitpunkt, in Erinnerungen zu schwelgen.

500 years from now, there will still be John Williams concerts being played around the world 🙂. This was amazing to see and hear ! Congratulations to the orchestra and conductor for such a spectacular performance!!!

Vous est-il possible de proposer de télécharger d’audio en qualité CD ? Écouter le concert sur youtube est une chose, en HQ avec une hifi adaptée ça doit être autre chose !
Merci d’avance pour votre réponse !

How RARE is it to actually hear emotions. They actually help us visualize what's happening in the physical world with sound. Love, excitement, adventure - all expressed into something we can hear. As simple as a word. Music. The most beautiful music. I believe these creators have the deepest of hearts... that are connected to God... and are moved by the Holy Spirit. THESE ARE WORKS OF ART on display for our hearts and minds through our ears - that go straight to our souls. Thank you John Williams. Thank you God. For music.

@nonomx5

Fantastic explanation, thank you!

@alanalun-p3g

The future will hold John Williams among the great one like Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Handel, Tchaikovsky. He's been God's gift to the 20th and 21st Centuries.

@snap-in-place-marketing

If you're a 80ies/90ies kid you should be in tears of joy right now.

L'Excellence à l'état pure. 💖JOHN WILLIAMS💖

@DVerdier73

These concerts being offered on YouTube are MARVELOUS! I cannot get enough of ARTE. Thank you for beautiful music and WITHOUT the annoying commercial breaks. Especially remember taking my step-son to Star Wars in 1977 (on our honeymoon to meet husband's parents), then following it up with Indiana Jones during the summers he was with us and finally his very favorite SUPERMAN...what great memories relived again and again with this concert

@lynnnord68

I love the beauty of the execution.

@mairehk

The man is a genius.... No words necessary, he captures the feel exactly and if you listen to Jurassic Park, E.T and Star Wars they all have similarities

@GameOverAus

Great tips, thanks for sharing!
