John Williams' Film Night 

John Williams will one day be listed alongside Bach, Mozart, And Tchaikovsky, as one of the greatest, most influential composers who ever lived

This man basically wrote the soundtrack of my childhood! A true American Legend!

Nothing like seeing and hearing the Maestro himself conducting his own

It staggers my imagination to consider the immeasurable joy John Williams has brought to me over the last 40 years. His brilliant film scores have enhanced many of the favorite films in my life. His contribution is simply massive. He has enriched every film he scored and took those movies to another level. Thank you Maestro for your creative genius!

I was blessed with a 60 year busy career as a studio singer and worked with John Williams on several occasions. While working on Close Encounters, I mentioned how much I loved Star Wars to him, and he said it was a lot of work! I can only imagine. Bravo to all your work, John, and thank for the truly fine person you are!

With all his accolades achievements and awards, John Williams has remain humble and grounded, no arrogant ego like many conductors. His brilliant legacy is embedded in many cultures.

When you love music, it does great things to your health!

I once went to a Williams tribute concert in Tivoli Copenhagen and the conductor said something like "just to put the man's talent and productivity in perspective, he had received just as many Oscar nominations as The Disney Cooperation"...

Felt like I traveled back to 1977, young and happy again.

Star Wars, Superman, E.T., Raiders. Home Alone, the list goes on. The man is a damn genius, there is no way around that! God bless him!

Was 88 yrs. old in February. No sounds of slowing down either. Marvelous.

John William's is our national treasure.

in his 80's still doing it. what a great person.

To say I love this man is truly an understatement. His understanding and use of orchestral instrumentation must have come straight from heaven. And somehow, he manages to thrill us time and time again. I honor and thank God for you Mr. Williams, SIR!

Without John Williams' music, Star Wars wouldn't be what it is. John gave them a SOUL.

John Williams is a music genius!

John Williams for ever! #loveJohnWilliams

Where would Star Wars be without the great John williams!

John Williams has written some of the most amazing soundtracks in all the history of the motion picture industry.

Memorable music of John Williams performed by the Boston Pops? Priceless!!!

I always cry when this music is played. Music should be listened to but felt as well. Cherish our great composers while we still have them.

Jon Williams is just a man. but his music is immortal, it will be played until the end of time.

Listening his music makes me feel like I’m in the middle of a movie, tears and goosebumps included. Thank you for your music John Williams ❤️

John Williams, the Best of the Best.

Love you John Williams the greatest composer of all time

My pick for "Star Wars" is actually for my neighbor on the 2nd Floor of my building, who I hope someday plays for Disney at USC or Sony Music. We don't talk, not even in passing, but our actions and facial expressions say more than words.... This is for you, Colin!

John Williams is a national treasure !

The most brilliant American composer in U. S. history.

I'm sure John Williams isn't from Earth. His compositions REALLY are from the Stars! Long life to him.

I’ve been lucky enough to see John Williams with the BSO, and grew up going to the Pops, but I’ve never gotten to Film Night, and it’s my absolute dream.

Such a magnificent body of work. He is now 89 years old. Bless his heart. What a gift to us all.

Imagine star wars without this

Music from heaven. “John Williams”, with love, admire, and respect. Thank you.

John Williams a living legend !!!

John Williams is my man.

John Williams is the biggest star in the music world, a genius.

Thank you for your Music Maestro .

What a beautiful soul and a class act! His music makes me cry. What a beautiful melody! Touches your child-like heart! If you don’t feel nothing when hearing his music, then you’re made of stone! Gorgeous orchestra!

I remember going to see John Williams and the Boston Pops at Tanglewood when I was about 15 in 2004. My mom drove me all the way up there to see his concert for my birthday. I'll never forget it. Such a gorgeous venue and an incredible performance.

He is not just an amazing composer who always inspired people a lot by using his wonderful creative talent. He is a truly legend for all of people who willing to appreciate and love music!

I enjoy listing to John Williams & Boston Pops When it was on PBS & QM Fm radio & now on KDFC 90.3 fm in San Fran.I have all 9 Films & soundtracks.

Thank you, Mr. Williams, you have blessed many generations!

Heros get remembered but legends never die......John you are the best!!!! You sir are the G.O.A.T

Listen to that slower tempo! He really is digging in now and is looking for further clarity of notes and rhythms, clean balance, and is now focusing on different and unique voicings that were lost in earlier recordings. Truly it is like witnessing an older Franz List age like the finest of wine. I feel like he has yet to make his own Beethoven's Late String Quartets or Listz's "Sonata in B minor", with their forward looking harmonies and styles and simple but lazer focused melodies. Boston and the BSO and Boston Pops are what truly move and/or inspire him to compose some of the best film music ever made. Also, I agree with Maestro William's comments about the BSO and Boston Pops. Such excellent musicians that have been performing at peak levels for decades. My personal favorite concerts and recordings are from John Williams and the Boston Pop and Symph. Always a very warm and well shaped tone, and excellent communication between conductor and orchestra that is readily conveyed to the audience that creates a sublime listening experience. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Mention should be made of the many concerts where John Williams has donated his services to support orchestras large, medium, and small. The very act of writing music for full orchestra for films when so many have gone to using three people on electronic synths has employed so many musicians and enriched our musical repertoire. Thank you, John Williams, for all you’ve done!

Yoda theme is absolutely magic. I think that scene in Empire Strikes Back, when Yoda uses the force to get Luke's x-wing out of the swamp to this track, is one of the most magic moment in movie history.

I just got my tickets in mail to see the Maestro, John Williams for his 90th Bday Celebration at Tanglewood this year! I can't wait to see him in person finally!

He's excellent in everything he's done and what the future will hold

Is anyone else watching this in crying?

Truly magnificent ...

I believe it is correct to say that film composers have become the Classical Music composers of the last 50 to 75 years, and John Williams is among the very best. Think about it. The great Classical composers of the past would marvel at todays film scores and likely want to try scoring many films themselves.

Johnny Williams ' annual Hollywood Bowl concerts just blow me away. He's incredibly good.

Oh that opening first chord of the Star Wars theme….and for that matter, every single nite that follows! Brilliance personified

We were fortunate enough to treat our son to Star Wars on Tour concert as a graduation present. Awesome night. Wish it could be done again or at least stream it. We will always remember it. Thank you for your fantastic music Mr. Williams.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Williams!

Got cassette player and 2 tapes for Xmas when I was a kid and 2 cassettes. Didn't even ask for it so didn't choose the music, my mom got me Anne Murray and Star wars soundtrack, didn't take long to wear it out. Was late 70's or early 80, don't remember but have loved John Williams since then and music in general. Really love Conan the barbarian soundtrack also, you should check it out if not familiar.

The little theme at the end is wonderful as always. BRAVO Mr Williams,and orchestra.

As a lifelong low horn player (amateur division) it does a body good to see a 4th horn so prominently featured in this video. You go Sarah Willis!

Saw in person,many years ago has always been my favorite....🕊🇺🇲💕

I was there last summer, at Tanglewood for Film Night. It was announced that John Williams would be there to introduce the program. When he was invited up to the stage after intermission to conduct most of the pieces in the second half of the concert, it was so incredible. The very appreciative Tanglewood audience was on its feet, taking photos and videos and cheering for Maestro John Williams. What a fantastic concert. What an amazing performance by John Williams. A Tanglewood memory that I will always remember.

Maestro of Hollywood

F a n t á s t i c o !!! 👏 👏👏

When you first hear star wars, super man, etc etc you don't think about this side of the film. But when you see and hear it, you then begin to realise how much music is the films life blood and not just a theme tune

Boston POPS! John Williams and all the Directors! Awesome 👍🏾 one of my favorite film themes

You are the Maestro💜🎼🎶🎵💜💜💜💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻God bless you sir🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜💜

John Williams is the greatest American composer and conductor, including Bernstein. I love the way he speaks, his totally American sound. He represents the best our culture has to offer, in the midst of a culture that is otherwise in decline.

Mr Williams represents the best in his craft. He illuminates the films so that you always remember. A legend and proudly, an American treasure who brings endless joy. I can’t find a favorite composition! I love them all. Thank you for sharing this. Never tire of his pieces and to watch them played-yikes.

John Williams is spectacular! One of the best composers, I should say!

The one and only. There will never be another like him.

Absolutely a bucket list event for me.

Just saw him tonight at Tanglewood! What a treat and a check off my bucket list! The man, the myth, the legend and the genius!

The Boston Pops are always fantastic. They never disappoint. My heart needed this. Thanks!

Amazing! Brilliant! Much loved and appreciated!

I listened to Yoda’s Theme over and over when I was staying in Hawaii years ago and hearing it now is overwhelmingly nostalgic. So beautiful. Thank you, John

Amazing. Thank you all!!!!@

I hope John Williams gets the opportunity to conduct the Berlin Philharmonic, he deserves that honor. He is a musical genius. 😊

John Williams GENIUS THANK YOU JOHN WILLIAMS GREAT

Saw him a few years ago and was blown away.. Ty maestro!

What a Brain, unbelievable....the best.

When I first heard this , One though was visualized in my brain .. USA all day and twice on Saturday n Sunday ...

3:43 i love this part so much

I absolutely love seeing professional musicians support each other and give silent “kudos” like the flutist gave after the piccolo solo at 3:06.

The camera guy loved Sarah on the French horn, so do we 🥰🥰 Go for it Sarah 🥰🥰 We love French . . . horn 🥰🥰

12:51 HORNS!!!!!! goosebumps.....

John Williams the great movie score genius,that word is given out sometimes when not necessary but in Johns case it should be double genius because he has given so much joy not just to me but ten of millions of people but doing something non aggressive that has bought the world together and that is his legacy,long my it continue.

I love John Williams!

No wonder it sounds so authentic.... it's the Boston Pops! 👏👏👏

For over fifty years I have followed, purchased, and attended in concert the work of John Williams, the greatest film composer of all time - far ahead of any composer of original scores: Hermann, Korngold, Jarre, Steiner, Goldsmith, Bernstein (Elmer), Rozsa, Barry and even the great Alfred Newman. Williams has bested all of them. Thanks John, for nearly 70 years of original scores. You will live forever in cinema history as the greatest film composer of all (GOAT).

He gave us the Theme from Schindler’s List. We really didn’t need anything else so it’s all a plus.

Is that Sarah Willis from the Berlin PO in the Horn section? YES!

A great music maker for movies etc may god help him in his 90th year

I saw John Williams conduct the BSO at Tanglewood close to 20 times and I have his music tattooed on my arm. I can’t imagine what my life would have been like without him.

Absolutely stunning performance!!!! Thank you !!!!

Goosebumps... John Williams is just amazing.

Master of his art amazing composer!!!!

Anybody cry watching this clip?

Excellence personified! Genius!

Espectacular 👏🏻

He is an unbelievable composer. Sends shivers down my spine arms and legs. Amazing.

It was great to see this show in person at Tanglewood!
