Williams: Indiana Jones / Sir Simon Rattle · Berliner Philharmoniker 

They are trained, same s we are learning looks nice on public performance :D

iannickCZ Wow, we have cynic here...

+JustLyn: I know, right? Who *wouldn't* feel utter joy playing ANYthing by JW? Just listening to his Olympic theme he wrote in 1984 gives me chills and happy tears after all these years! And his "Star Wars" and "Superman" themes are, IMO, masterpieces, to say nothing of his music for "Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind."

I agree that they are trained so that they don't visibly show discontent during days they aren't their best, but there is definitely something to be said about the joy of playing music. If you don't truly enjoy playing music, you won't get into the berlin philharmoniker.

Maybe the director told them to watch the Indiana jones before performing it.

the drums and the crowd are a give away at the beginning. just a very well balanced mix by the live audio guys.

Gladiator film

Right on man. Very hard to tell difference. Snare is a little quieter here than studio version, imo.

Well, professional musicians performing the same music written by Williams and they're very damn good at what they do. Bravo!

And Yet It's Outside

Exactly!!!!!! And seeing Sarah Willis bop her head to the pulse was cool too

William Lopez we usually refer French horn players as horn players , it is actually fine to say that

And Sir Simon without the Bullwhip at his side :-) Hier passt einfach alles, Top Orchester, super Dirigent und ein wunderbares Stück Filmmusik.

William Lopez The horn is not a French instrument…

While it was made in Germany, the way the French used it popularized, and that's why it's called the French Horn

Exactly ❤

He's even better

@@wattosoldier I don't know about all that.

@@wattosoldier what makes you say that even though you yourself know that it's not true

@@Yassine_Bouariss Tell me a reason why Mozart and Beethoven are better than John Williams

Ice Flame same !

they make the core of the theme...and it’s hard to find a good ensemble, it’s not and easy instrument.

I love it too! John William really showed the french horns off in his music

French horns are the real foundation of the regal quality to John Williams pieces. Trumpets are the sparkle, but the French horns are the majesty. From a trumpet player.

I love horns its the best brass instrument.

+Balls McGee Composers for movies or games are way too underestimated. Just look at this theme, or at Schindler's List, Lord of the Rings, etc. So many good composers out there, play their music!

Diabolus Agiosophis Yeah John Williams and Nobuo Uematsu are some of my favorite composers. I rank their music right alongside any of the great classical composers.

+Balls McGee Try The Ipcress File theme by John Barry (most famous for the scores for countless James Bond films...) and also let's not forget Henri Mancini!

Well very often the film music is originally played by top orchestras...

I think movie (and increasingly, video game) soundtrack composers pretty much _are_ the modern-day equivalent of classical composers.

You are only at 27? Amateur :-D

for me it’s temple of doom!!!! here we go...

@@MrTanuki11 The Last Crusade guy here. "Tickets please!"

such terrible movies.

Bjorn Egan ok

I would hate to play for a monarchy too. But a hero...

It happens fairly consistently when orchestras perform John Williams' music! I was lucky to see him conducting the LSO many years ago and I've never seen an orchestra having that much fun.

Please go watch the Danish national orchestra's recording of cantina band, if you want to see happy artists

I smile too when listening to raiders march almost everytime!

OK, a totally different kind of entertainment, but for band members enjoying just being there, IMO nothing beats ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uMPEUcVyJsc.html (sorry, I couldn't find the full version now). But the musicians' enjoyment is one of the things I enjoy most about that piece.

Diggy Dumbo MEE TOOO

I literally was just playing it on ps3 for the nostalgia

MEEEE TOOOO TOOO :')

@@thutu1957 tooooo toooo

@@bshaun2740 i stil got it tho

“THIS” conductor is Sir Simon Rattle!! And he’s one of the most famous conductors in the world!

@Tyler Jorge i'm still trying to find who asked

Instablaster...

i found you

They're called Freedom Horns in America.

Queen Elizabeth II ...No theyre not😂

The Horns are what makes this composition SO great in my opinion.

No they aren't . . . Still called French horns of horns in f

I play the French Horn

I remember being 9 or 10 and always playing as Indy in my backyard with my grandpa's huge fedora and a toy revolver. Then one day, I came home and on my bed were the iconic whip, the holster, the metal revolver (toy ofc) and of course, the exact bag that Indy wears throughout the franchise. After that day, every time I came home from school, I begged my parents to go to the local park and play as Indiana Jones, running and rolling around the place, shooting at people and wrapping the whip around their foot before pulling them down, and all that stuff...Those were the days.

He still is to me at 26

It was only literally your life if you are a fictitious character, which is clearly nonsense. You see what a minefield you step into by forcing the word 'literally' into everything you say?

​@@markfox1545it's clear that he meant as a kid, being a fanatic of Indiana Jones was LITERALLY his life. Keep your snide comments to yourself and get lost mArK

crcr1 *bravi

@Lachlan South that's the joke 😂

@Bender B. Rodrigues wdym

It is quite fitting that one of the world's greatest orchestra's play one of the world's greatest composer's works.

Being turned into meat isn't very healthy

Matija Narobe no to you know get to see him and talk

u want meat John Williams?

Holy shit! That's a cruel way to show John Williams all your love. Resist the dark side. We still need him! Just don't do it...

*meet

+Chris Lee well John Williams loved to copy... even himself

+Chris Lee Yeah, I can relate to that. Gorgeous theme. It is called 'Marion's Theme' BTW...

Well, Indy and Marion ARE kind of like Han Solo and Princess Leia, except their kid didn't turn out to be a Kylo Ren, thank goodness.

Ed Vega but if I can recall Mutt was a fencer, using form 2 makashi is quiet a sight to behold if he had a lightsabre.

Oh I forgot about that! He liked fencing! Spalko: I've been waiting for you, Henry Jones III. We meet again at last. When I left you, you were but the learner. Now *I* am STILL the master! Mutt: Only a master of evil, you commie bitch. (clash) Spalko: Your powers are weak, young man. You should not have come back. Mutt: You can't win, Spalko. If you strike me down, I shall only become more powerful than you can possibly imagine. Spalko: What do you mean? That you shall be part of some extradimensional force? Be on another plane of existence? Believe me, I've BEEN there and it's no big deal.

Hello Lana how are you doing today

Great and fun music, a "yeah baby" smile.

+calihornplayer ,....I say Sarah!

I say Sarah too lmao

Sarah Willis... :-)

Everyone here saying sarah because she's probably the most internetfamous but don't underestimate the cheekiness of the rest of that horn section

Every single enjoy it!!

Hello how are you doing today Anne

Maybe cause it's one of the best themes ever written..

Hello Phyllis

Quite likely, I suspect. Because his music is really associated with the most signature films of our times. People who are into film 100 years from now will know of these films if they know of any from our era.

This is Berlin so no, he's gonna watching Bundesliga after that ;)

a name Same, such good memories

You should revisit the games on pc. They still bring great fun, especially for a Indy fan

Hello Mary how are you doing today

Isn't John Williams American and wasn't it an American orchestra that played the original score?

Queen Elizabeth II "silently pulls out a silenced luger p08" no one will ever know ...

Yes and probably no. It was likely to have been the London Symphony Orchestra. Of course, my original comments were about the Berlin performance of the work. It is a difficult task to reproduce art in a faithful way... a challenge the original work is not burdened with.
