WILLIAMS March from 1941 - "The President's Own" United States Marine Band 

Such an underrated score. Spielberg himself has said he actually prefers the 1941 march over the one for Raiders.

The Marine band is really good!

One young lady in the flute section, with some measures rest was completely mesmerized, with a look on her face and eyes, like "I can't believe I'm being conducted by the real John Williams, OMG."

Underrated score from an underrated movie.

I could see Belushi's P40 screaming down the highway.... Excellent rendition from the Master Composer!

So cool to see John Williams enjoy his own work. The smile on his face says it all. :). Great job to the Presidents Own Band playing this tune. :)

One of my all-time favorite pieces. Had to put on my headphones so I didn't wake up everyone in the house.

I play trumpet and I'm in high school in a small town in Idaho and I think this is one of the coolest pieces ever!! I want to play this some day really bad!🎺

Count how many times these normally poker--faced musicians are seen smiling up at JW. They can't help but love this national treasure any more than we can.

No one could write Hero music like John Williams. Period. I am of the belief that God has him very busy writing the soundtrack and scoring for the 2nd coming of Christ.

I have seen hundreds of concerts in my life, ranging from the Stones, McCartney, RUSH, Nugent ,AC/DC, Foo Fighters, Stevie Wonder, Petty, to Anita Baker The Tubes ,Gino Vannelli and even the Monkees just to name a few. I have NEVER EVER been so moved at a concert as I was with THEE Mr. John Williams. Hands down , without a doubt the single greatest live performance I ever experienced

If this movie wasn’t the box office joke that it was, I believe that this march would have been one of the most well known and most performed works by John Williams, as opposed to somewhat of an afterthought. Like Bernstein’s Candide Overture (which also was the music to a flop), it practically saves the movie from complete oblivion. I can’t think of a better concert opener. One tempo from start to finish (as opposed to Raiders March or Star Wars Main Theme) and light, fresh and fun. Reminds me of Morton Gould’s American Salute. I wish this were performed more.

Mr. John Williams always makes me cry, EVEN with his marches. My god, WHY ARE THESE SCORES SO GOOD?!?!? There are no "lesser" scores, even the ones that are not so well known ARE masterpieces. God bless this genius human being. Nothing else to say, just THANK YOU!!!!

I love seeing at the end how pleased John Williams is to have conducted the band, and how pleased they are to have had him as conductor.

Watch the bandmembers as they play this under his baton. Every chance they get their eyes are on the conductor for this probably once in a lifetime experience. So awesome.

Dang, Mr Williams is GOOD -- and he's a decent conductor, as well. Not all composers are.

Two national treasures.

This is quite awesome!! John Williams is a legend and national treasure❤️🇺🇸

The smile on every member’s face says it all.

This March is just hilarious and full of joy and humour. It’s just so exciting. You can’t not stop your feet to it….

Truly an American treasure.

Music spectacular

Siete grandiosi!!!Grazie!!da una tuba sib italiana sempre a fare processione!!

This brings a smile to my lips and a tear to my eye! Wonderful!

At 3:29, he goes from a massive grin to “Who the hell was 0.5 cents too sharp?”

Very nice ❤ Williams is a legend.

I am Born on November 10th!!!! My father was born in 1941!!! Marines all the way!!

Wow! It’s hard to conceive that as a young man, all of that was in his head, ready for implementation for anyone lucky enough to get him to score their movie.

Such admiration by the players towards him. You can just feel it in the music.

John williams the second john Phillip Souza with the best marches ever

They all look so serious and professional but inside they must've been going a mile a minute and having the best day of their music careers

In my minds eye I can see Wild Bill Kelso landing at that gas station.

This is one the best movie themes and of course it's John Williams at the helm.

Excellent! 👏👏

One of the John Williams marches I like the most. I listened to that track on Sony's 90s CD, The Spielberg / Williams Collaboration by Sony Music.

Masterpiece!

Even though this is an overblown movie, I always liked it. And the score is great. Spielberg's "Mad Mad World"!

The Maestro does it again another good score by The Great John Williams.

This score is the best thing about the movie and this was a great performance of it.

I remember playing this in the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band. It's always been one of my favorites. The piece gives you a little spark of joy like few others can.

This march by the master John Williams rocks, big time!

Magnificent. One of the best marches ever composed, and there have been some truly great ones.

It's almost impossible to not smile while hearing this!

I was there!

My middle school band played this. BEST CONCERT OF MY LIFE! Thanks John Williams.

I love it when music gives me goosebumps, and this piece certainly has. Wonderful march.

Quite infectious. Memorable, too.

Absolutely brilliant composition and brilliantly played by the superb President’s Own …. a joy to hear!

what are perfect piece

Trumpets in they Air ,! Congratulzations Mr, Williams

This is my personal favorite piece of John Williams music, wich as you very well know, is saying something.

Absolutely magnificent!

This piece is so Awesome and to watch John Williams and the Presidents own makes me smile!! Bravo 👏 👏 👏

Great, great, great

i finally see a video where John Williams Conducts this 1941 Theme again.... the movie and theme were made i think 1980 it RARELY Gets played along with the Superman theme which he also wrote 2 very good themes that are under performed even though i love a lot of his other stuff

This is actually a tribute song to captain Robert Kelso who attacked the first Japanese aircraft over the continental US and captured a Japanese submarine off the California coast.

This is one of my favorite themes from john Williams

This is SO-O-O addictive!!!

What a cracking march superbly performed; I loved the syncopation, quite surprising in a march!!!

What an epic piece for an epic movie!

Happy Birthday John!

I love listening to orchestra

Happy birthday to the great man john William's and good luck at the Oscar's.

何度聴いても良い曲です。ジョンウイリアムズ氏の曲は素晴らしいものばかりですがわたしはこの曲が一番好きかもしれません。映画じたいは見たことないんですが😅

To me, it invokes images from the novel 'Team Yankee', a platoon of Abrams casually traversing the German country side.

I just realized that I'm listening to this at exactly 19:41 what a coincidence.

Absolutely love this ensemble. There is no better. Will someone please steal and hide those toy crash cymbals!!

Wild Bill Kelso is proud of youq

Great performance, and a great recording!

The President's Own - tighter than a blouse on Dolly Parton.

Happy Birthday!

10/10

Alrighty now, where are my fellow Salt Mining Gnomes?

John Williams's score was the only redeeming factor for that movie. It sent chills through my body. AWESOME!!

You can just SEE them....marching by in their flat, dishpan helmets and leggings, '03 Springfield rifles with their long bayonets shouldered, 48 star flags flying...

Thanks for posting.

Merci 💚

John Philip Sousa would have loved this if he was still with us today 🇺🇸

If you haven't seen it, the introduction to this song shows the absolute surprise of the band members when John walks on stage. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rIgHsGFt5JI.html

Complete knockout ! Out of this world!

È splendida!!🎵🙏🎼🎶

Epic

Would be perfect for military ceremonies 🇺🇸

Great

Лёгкий,радостный,очаровательный марш

Qué maravilla

Every time I hear the opening bars of this I hear the engines of 9th Bomber Command's B24s warming up for Operation TIDAL WAVE on August 1st, 1943.

He is no Bill Conti. But, like this song. And, the Marines.

These syncopated rhythms are terrific!

*lands P-40 at a gas station in the middle of nowhere* "Fill her up! ethyl!" :D

Compare this to the U.S. Army recording

3:11

1:05

Ah, that's better... proper tempo. Just come from the Army's video, they were all over the shop 😁

Just wondering WHO is stuffing the vote for this piece ... there just cannot be any other explanation for this piece beating out Holst's Moorside March, and Fucik's Entry of the Gladiators (aka "Thunder & Blazes"), at least not based upon the instances in this playlist ... could it be the SAME person(s) stuffing the vote for Hands Across the Sea, which beat out Williams' Raiders March and Sousa's Washington Post March ... if this piece gets to the final, someone has been playing a numbers game, because of the four Williams' marches in the 2021 March Mania, I find it difficult to believe that this piece doesn't bring up the rear behind Raiders, Imperial March and Superman ...

Maravilha!!!!

1941 is a Christmas movie.

John Williams actually made a military song that sounds like it was made BY the military . 🪖🎖️🧑‍✈️🇺🇲
