This piece of music always gives me chills when I hear it. Vangelis is surely being missed by those around the world who loved his music. MAY HE REST IN PEACE!!!❤❤❤
Greek doing music about Genoese sailing under Castilian flag, rivaled by Portugal, that more than anything enjoyed slaughtering local Taino population, portrayed by Frenchman in American movie
@@k.a.2253 Correct. But the Castillian along with the Portugese. Where the EMPIRE at the day. Along with Cortez and Ezpinoza. The Eibirian Empire was more genocidal than the brits and dutch combined. And their where BAAD.(I am neither).
What an incredibly inspiring piece of music. My goodness, men were men then. When I'm down, I listen to this, and I'm a warrior, ready to fight for what I believe in.
La pieza musical es maravillosa pero luchar, conquistar y someter es la historia de la humanidad. A mí no me parece que ser un guerrero sea nada encomiable.
Это феноменально, божественно красиво, здорово, вот это не воинственность, дружба и доброта преодолевает все на планете Земля!!!!!!!!! Вот это харизматично, здорово!!!!!!!!! Божественный пример единения народов, великий пример всем мирам и народам!!!!!!!!! Это поистине прославится в веках!!!!!!!!! Вот это мировой пример мирного завоевания!!!!!!!!! Я восторжен и радостен любви народов!!!!!!!!!
Resulta absolutamente inimaginable para nosotros, habitantes del siglo XXI tecnológico, llegar a comprender lo que supuso una odisea así. Aquellos hombres eran hijos de su tiempo. Españoles aventureros y con determinación, dispuestos a embarcarse durante varios meses en un viaje hacia no se sabía dónde. Como subirse hoy a un cohete hacia Plutón. Sólo entendible por un contexto en España, tras 800 de Reconquista cristiana de la Península. Esa inercia militar y de vida al límite tuvo mucho peso en esta historia. Y llegaron a un mundo Nuevo. Con gentes, colores, olores, fauna, flora, tamaños de todo totalmente nuevos. Increíble para ellos. Pero no se arrugaron. Nunca
El verdadero genocidio fue el hecho por las enfermedades que sin querer trajeron los europeos. Los indígenas por esta miles de años separados no lograron tener las suficientes defensas para enfermedades como la viruela y murieron en masa. De no ser por eso, podrían haber más indígenas y hubiera sido más complicado la conquista.
@@-Diana_anaiD- si bien es muy cierto lo que dices tambien debes entender el desfase tecnologico entre ambas civilizaciones para mi la sidometalurgia daba alos europeos una venta abisal casi como si vieneran ala tierra marcianos con armas laser xd xd piensa por un segundo un soldado profesional con proteccion acorazado con acero de calidad con espadas toledanas picas arcabuces caballeria y perros de gerra y artilleria todos ellos en formacion cerrada aora enfrente tiene a soldado indigenas con armar de piedra lanzas flechas de arco corto con punta echa de huesos enfin todo ello con tacticas inadecuadas , las tropas españolas eran como una trituradora de carne para ejercitos altamente curtidos imaginate contra esas pobres gentes
Long before the pandemics when I was teaching in a real classroom, I used this track as a theme song when I delivered the students their graded exams. Starting from the one with the bottom grade and ending with the one who got the maximum points, one by one passed in front of the board to receive their exams. Moments were just sublime, and a wide variety of feelings shone through their eyes, from sadness to pride. Great music. Hails from Mexico.

You're the kind of teacher that students will remember throughout their lives.
One of the best soundtracks ever created. The mixed elements of electronic, acoustic, ethnic and symphonic at the perfect balance. A soundtrack album that one can listen as a standalone work of art, regardless of having seen the film or not. And of course, a must-have for Vangelis collectors.

Questa Musica trionfante ben si confà alla grandezza di quest'altro inarrivabile strepitoso coraggioso italiano!!!!!!!!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i
Queri e Amado Grego ! Fica na Paz na Espiritualidade onde estás , pois deixastes um todo de Paz e de Luz , com singelas músicas que também curam , pois este foi meu caso , Muita gratidão e estás recebendo muito Amor da Humanidade , que se transforma em Luz ! São Paulo, 20-05-2022 - Brasil
I cannot believe it's been 28 years since this movie was released and especially this great theme music. I never even knew Vangelis existed until then. And this has been for me one of the most inspirational pieces of music I have ever heard. I take my hat off to the great composer!
Probably not. But there are those up there with him such as John Williams. Still, Vangelis was a very unique individual who did not follow the normal route to musical mastery but who left us so much beauty and joy. May the Creator bless him.
@@nevilleoliver1883You are right and that is the most wonderful thing about a person, that they want to learn and develop, and get to know the world anew, that they can do a lot of good. They sailed into the unknown, fought with their weaknesses, and were also afraid that they could be devoured by, for example, a sea dragon. :) And yet they made a discovery. Glory to them for that and eternal memory. The music is wonderful and reflects the greatness of this discovery. And some of these skeptics writing here wouldn't even get on a boat.
First time hearing this music . Really soul touching . Heard he is no more. His music heals many more hearts and remembers his name in the air forever 🙏
The movie is NOT a documentary nor is it fully a TRUE representation of Christopher Columbus. Listen here for a better explanation of the man: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vtxoi9T5yJg.html
@@RealSavages the conqueror write the history.. this is why Jesus hated the scribes and pharisees who he called liars and of the devil. Jesus's struggle on earth was with the authorities.. the conquerors that lie about history.. which are written in as saviors. Their quest for total control is written as "the salvation plan". This world and the man-made institutions it came about have for a very long time been ruled by the Antichrist. Worship it if you want, worship might in the name of right, no matter for how long, it will never be right.. ever.
@Michael Horvath It is a shame the only history you seem to be aware of is whatever lies you were brainwashed to believe. Your hostility toward my very arguably point of view proves this brainwashing as you advance no evidence for your claims. Brainwashed people like you Michael, know what to believe, but they do not know why. When confronted with ideas counter to the brainwashing, they act like a cornered wet cat (see your posts). Your claims about his alleged crimes cannot be proven, because they did not happen. Your statement that he did not bring Christianity to the New World is ludicrously false. How else did it get here? Columbus himself states this was so, and yes, he was there.
Imagine the feeling of sailing into unknown then discovering whole new continents, new people, new cultures... wow. I envy these people. Columbus, Vasco de Gama, Magellan, Amerigo Vespucci, Leif Eriksson, Francis Drake, Marco Polo, Bartolemou Dias, and let's not forget their crews, all brave people. We have nothing to discover now. There is space and other planets but they are still out of reach.
And the franciscans, the dominicans, the agustinians, the jesuists etc. who made the spiritual conquest, maybe a more difficult conquest than that one with the sword and spear..
Me emociona pensar en semejante epopeya. Soy marino y sé lo que es estar a merced del mar o de lugares desconocidos. Soy americano criollo y llevo orgullosamente todas las etnias que nos formaron, los conquistadores del Paraguay y las guaraníes, cuyos hijos mestizos con solo cuatro peninsulares fundaron Buenos Aires donde vivo, literalmente ya que habito uno de los solares del primer repartimiento del General Juan de Garay, arribado al nuevo mundo con solo 14 años, pese a todo no me lo imagino lloriqueando frente a algunos comentarios, pidiendo silenciar palabras que hieren su sensibilidad.
Todo mi respeto para Usted, Señor. Soy española de Galicia-del Reino de Leon y del Principado de Asturias. Todos mis antepasados descienden del noroeste español y portugués ,nuestra querida Patrias Hermana. Sentido saludo para Usted (Ustedes). Ojalá tengan oportunidad de venir a conocer "La Patria Madre",queridos... Grande orgullo por Uds!!!
Gracias, me encanta su comentario. Los americanos que demuestran tanto odio x nosotros, los españoles, deberían tener en cuenta que sin la colaboradora de los nativoamericanos jamás hubiéramos podido conquistar tan vasta cantidad de territorio. La conquista americana no la hicimos solamente los europeos...la hicimos los europeos conjuntamente con los americanos (de otro modo hubiera sido imposible!).
Возвышенная музыка композитора Вангелиса порождает в людях энтузиазм и веру в Высшие Силы , поощряющие смелых и целеустремленных людей на грандиозные свершения и торжество человеческого Духа , несмотря на их жалкую плоть и очевидное несовершенство материальных ресурсов , а также объективные трудности , подстерегающие их на каждом шагу !
Hay personas que no deberian morir nunca mi amado Vangelis , de chica eras una especie de mago de la musica , gracias maestro. Espero que tu vuelo haya sido tan hermoso como tu inolvidable musica
Марш конкистадоров, какая то неотвратимая поступь истории. Дорогу осилит только тот, кто готов погибнуть ради достижения цели. И только тот, кто закалился перед походом. В этой музыке не только великий прыжок Колумба, но и 774 года Реконкисты, выковавший такой человеческий материал. Причудливая смесь потомков римлян, готов, аланов, свевов, арабов, евреев закалилась и смогла взять целый континент.
@@ИгорьУдовенко-з7у у многих племен Америки обычным явлением были: каннибализм (ритуальный в том числе), myжеложство и принесение на алтарь местных культов - десятки тысяч жизней, пленных в том числе, по большим праздникам. Конкистадоры положили сему конец, началась эпоха Христианства.
However, in that film they forgot several characters. 1 Gonzalo fernandez de Cordoba, the spanish commander, decisive in the Fall of Granada , the Great Captain and the founder of the future spanish tercios or modern infantry,. 2 The famous jewish (under special protection of the Queen Isabela) that financed the expedition of Cristopher Columbus.
¡Un viva por Vangelis! Su obra jamás será olvidada. Seguro inspiró a muchos artistas como yo, o como otros, con su maravillosa música tanto en 1492 como en Blade Runner o en cualquier otro medio, para extraer belleza de sus notas y sus melodías. Vive para siempre en los corazones y las mentes de quienes te admiran, maestro. ¡Viva, viva, viva!
On October 12th 2023, it would be 531 years since that fateful day in 1492. May the memory of those who had the guts to actually travel that far from their homes and discover a strange new world live in our hearts forevermore.
Me encanta esta película, de hecho la fui a ver al cine el 12 de Octubre de 1992, el día que se cumplían 500 años del descubrimiento de América. La música de Vangelis es realmente sensacional, hace que la experiencia sea aun mejor.
I'm not exhausted to listen to, again and again, this amazing musical thriller; terrific, wonderful and I admire and respect this brave man, Columbus to reach and Discover a New continent, America
i do not care what others think about christopher columbus. he was a great man what he did no human before him. everydid. sail across the ocean. yes the vikings were here before him. but they sailed always keeping land in sight. think of the courage it took to sail across the ocean with no land in sight my god what a man.
No. You can't sail to North America from Europe keeping land in sight, or anything close to that. Try looking at a map sometime. Did you skip grade school, or what? Columbus kidnapped people to show off to the sovereigns of Europe on his 1st voyage to the Americas. On his third voyage he returned with a gigantic flotilla that wreaked havoc on Hispaniola, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people on that very populated island. He dragooned people into slavery and fomented disastrous wars. He was no hero. His original intent was explicitly predatory, and he unleashed the Spanish Conquest on the Caribbean and Central America. Try learning some actual history.
Le rôle de Christophe Colomb va comme un gant a Gérard Depardieu, c'est même l'uns de ses meilleurs films qu'il a pu faire en tant qu'acteur. Et la musique de vangelis est une pure beauté....
Nosso amado, surpreendente e maravilhoso Deus, o Deus único e verdadeiro,exatamente naqueles anos, 1492/1498, em que os seus Judeus eram expulsos da Espanha e Portugal, ele "providenciou" esta terra, estupenda, maravilhosa para eles, que então vieram aos borbotões! Deus seja louvado!!!
No hables más mierda que España y Portugal fueron muy cuidadosas para que los judíos no pisaran América. Los judios llegaron después de la caída de esos Imperios.
The ARROGANCE of people who think THEIR "Holy Gospel" is better than what other believe already. Missionaries should mind their own business and STAY HOME.

Reading the comments below. All are united in so many languages. This wonderful inspiring music brings out the oneness in us. Hello and much love fellow earthlings. From 🇿🇦
it isn't, the music and sountrack are awesome and epic, but the movie is shit. It contradicts itself multiple times, and paints Columbus as a person of vision, not to mention it made the fact that Columbus slaughtered mercilessly a bunch of natives into a myth, not even basing itself on history itself, but on what is thought in school. The soundtrack as I said is epic, but the movie itself isn't historically accurate, nor is it a good historic movie.
I agree the music is great but I don't remember much about the film. I don't think it's accurate enough about the real reason for the exploration, which is greed.
@@konstantinoskaragiannis1596 For some reason I don't feel like seeing it again. On the contrary, there are other films like the Last of the Mohicans that I see again and again.
O melhor Vídeo da internet, e seguramente a melhor música de filme. a cena que mostra ele descendo do barco e se ajoelhando na areia para agradecer à Deus é simplesmente fantástica.
Eu admiro tão profundamente está música e seu compositor que sinto uma sensação de Reverência quando a escuto . Reverência grandes obras nós foram deixadas que vá também ao encontro de futuras gerações.
I watched the film; I really loved it. Moreover, Gerard Dépardieu is my favourite actor. Further, I agree, at that time you had to be very tough and resilient in order to survive the tide, sea sickness, the flu and other atrocious maladies. Bravo, superb French actor!
La escena de Gerard Depardieu con las rodillas en América es impactante, no hay otro Colón como él. Un film épico de un antes y un después para la humanidad.
Bueno, eso es porque no hemos podido ver al auténtico Cristóbal Colón (o Christopher Colombus), arribando en América...aunque seguramente ambas escenas,la real y la escénica ,bien pudieron ser muy similares.
@@robertmitchell8630 Are you talking about the Anglos?. You do NOT have any proof. The only major death was caused by Eurasian germs... Something inevitable, because of the state of science and medicine. On the other hand, in just a few years, there were hospitals available, universal Spanish citizenship, and human sacrifices became a bad memory.
@@ikercapi Super imposing your ideology How many native kids taken away forced into your euro centric culture Now graves being dug up All this in the name of the dead man God One could argue the Moors did the same to Spain dragged them out of the cave dwelling mind set without the genocide
Bravo to these explorers. Brave men who voyaged to the edge of the known world, not knowing if they would ever return or what they'd find. Comfort is the number one silent killer!
@@maxfram17 Totally agree... It's hard to reconcile both realities. The atrocities that followed are hearts breaking. My soul still feels the pain but I shall let it all go.... We can still create a better humanity. A human family. I believe it 🙏🌹
For those of us who are Spaniards, the conquest meant the prize of our faith in God. The Lord knew how to reward our determination to build a nation and expand its culture to the ends of the Earth.Master Vangelis has managed to capture in this magnificent melody that collective task which joined us to achieve the glory. Para aquellos de nosotros que somos españoles, la conquista significó el premio de nuestra fe en Dios. El Señor supo recompensar nuestra determinación de construir una nación y expandir su cultura hasta los confines de la Tierra. El Maestro Vangelis ha logrado plasmar en esta magnífica melodía esa tarea colectiva que nos unió para alcanzar la gloria.
As a Filipino, your country colonized us for 377 years (1521-1898). You gave us Catholicism, traditions and language. some of the Governor-General were brutal during their reign in the Philippinesbut at least we got something good from the Spanish
LA MAESTRÍA Y ELEGANCIA EN SU MÁXIMA EXPRESIÓN, HERMOSO TEMA ,UN CLÁSICO QUE NUNCA MORIRÁ MIENTRAS LOS ESCUCHEMOS TANTAS VECES Y LAS NUEVAS GENERACIONES LO DISFRUTEN.
Colombo segundo a História de Portugal, seria de origem italiana de Génova e terá sido em Portugal que aprendeu as artes de marear na época dos descobrimentos portugueses. Ofereceu os seus serviços ao Rei de Espanha tal como o fez Fernão de Magalhães que esse era Português natural de Sabrosa Vila Real de Trás os Montes região do DOURO.
