  • Steven Spielberg is the greatest director that ever lived in my opinion! =) And Schindler's List is just one of his many GREAT MASTERPIECES! =)

  • This song really just by music tells the story about the darkest time in European history..

  • You must really hate yourself if you're a german these days...

  • @MusicJverstra Trust me, germans are really ashamed for their ancestors.

  • @MusicJverstra Why would a German person hate themselves? Of course they regret what their ancestors did to the Jews in the Holocaust but every country does something that they regret afterwords. But not to mention the fact that the genocide was commited by Nazis NOT Germans - yes there's a difference. The Nazi Government / political party did as much as they could to hide what was going on inside concentration camps from everyone, including the German people. Sorry, but it's true.

  • Where is God now? I felt a voice inside me answer him: Where is God? Here- Here he is. He is hanging here, on this gallows.

    -Night

  • When I listen to this song and RainyMood at the same time it feels like I'm livin' a nightmare.

  • This piece is probably my favorite in all the soundtrack, I don't know why. I guess its because I cry and FEEL the pain of the victims in this particular piece more than any of the others.

  • I just want to cry... this is beautiful. thank you for posting.

  • Whenever I hear a violin now, all I can think of is the kids deemed to small to work walking in a single file line down the narrow stairs into the furnace room. I was going to say good God to myself the first time I saw it, but I just couldn't bring myself to say anything with God in it. "Where is God? There- there he is... He is hanging there, on those gallows..." -the hanging of a child in Night by Eli Wiesel. How can God exist now?

  • eh muito tensaaaaaaaa

  • correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this in that Sherlock Holmes movie. I have been looking forever to find this song! when i was watching this thing for art and i heard the song and found the name in the description. I'm so happy! love this song so much!!!!!!!!!! but still i sorrow for the lost souls. Shall history never be forgotten! Rest In Peace brave ones.

  • I love this piece. It is my favorite piece from the Schindler's List Soundtrack (also my favorite movie, btw). It really makes you feel there, in the moment, what with all the despair, tension and fear. With the violin solos, it also has a feeling of austerity. It blends both sides of the holocaust- German austerity and Jewish dispair into one masterful piece.

  • If you believe in ghost read this:::::::

    We had a present in our house and i can tell you i didn't feel welcome in my own home, i didn't wanna be there and i couldn't tell why, then we had a medium out at our house and she told us we had SS guy there and he was calling me a german jewish whore... and he really wanted to yeah shot me... so maybe it wasn't so weird i didn't feel welcome... I can tell more if anybody wnat the whole story???

  • @baremig2010 Thats incredible! Message me more if you want! I love stories like that, not that I'm happy this happened to you, it must have been mortifying.

  • anyway, who wrote this song?

  • this piece is seriously the most perfect piece you could every imagine. It captures the essence of Birkenau in a way that is just unreal.

  • I would just like to say how much I disapprove of the holocaust, racism and genocide, and also that I feel the need to declare this on a youtube page dedicated to a song from a movie soundtrack. Next step, a regular column at the New York Times.

  • @thisaccursedman Dude, WTF? Have you ever read Youtube comments before? Take a lot at some of the comments after any video on the Holocaust and tell me if your smug little swipe at the poster was necessary.

  • @circaa2 I really don't think killing more people is the way to avoid bloodshed.

  • Comment removed

  • @circaa2 I'm not saying that Nazism is a good thing however what people from all over need to realize is that the Nazi party used extreme propaganda techniques and most only did some of the things they did to save their families and themselves. Also, the German people of today are extremely embarrassed and regretful of what happened on account of their ancestors and are trying to repent in whatever ways they can

  • Yes, holocaust should not be forgoten and never repeated. Nevertheless, Srebrenica has happened only few years ago under the eyes of the whole world, while the same kind of oppression still happens in some parts of the world where suffer the Kurdish people in the hands of Turkey and Iran, the Chechenian and Ingushetian people in the hands of Russia, the Tibetans in the hands of China and the Palestinians in the hands of Israel. That's a pitty and a shame.

  • @laulimor Its already happening except now its being brought out by the Muslims

  • I do not understand why did they not fight back! All Nazi are monsters, Demons walking among men!

    I say kill one of these new nazi for every Jew, Gypsy and handicapped person that died in during WW2!

  • I hear that music everytime when i go to my fridge and there is nothing in there to eat !

  • Comment removed

  • @superjay45 shut up they don't just suck there terrible and no one wants to here them this is not about freedom of speech!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I don't give a single fuck about the holocaust, but this song is amazing, John Williams is THE genius.

  • you should because peole who dont know about the past are doomed to repeat it

  • @KINKYmustache you should care about the holocaust because millions of Jews died for no reason.

  • 7 people are antisemetic

  • When you think of Auschwitz-Birkenau and what happened there, this is so fitting.

  • @Freecell82 The reason I put "positive comments" is to prevent racists, neo-nazis and haters who would troll around videos about the holocaust! and yes this about the holocaust but this is just music.

    Why do you even need to use profanity which is a senseless word, If ur hater leave and let the rest of the people enjoy hearing the music rather than being a troll spamming idiot.

  • @triheadwar1996 YEAH!!!

  • @triheadwar1996 If you believe in ghost read this:::::::

    We had a present in our house and i can tell you i didn't feel welcome in my own home, i didn't wanna be there and i couldn't tell why, then we had a medium out at our house and she told us we had SS guy there and he was calling me a german jewish whore... and he really wanted to yeah shot me... so maybe it wasn't so weird i didn't feel welcome...

  • @Freecell82

    Dude he's talking about nazi and racist comments...how did you NOT get that?

  • @Freecell82 wow do people like you just come onto videos to bitch at anything the poster has in the comments or annotations. get a fucking life

  • pure visceral terror....

  • Just BLOWING MIND! :/

  • 1:20 = Anxious

  • This is one scary piece of music.

  • Powerful stuff here! Actually evokes a sense of fear from within.

  • what's to dislike?

  • This part in the movie made me cry.

    Just seeing the horror and darkness of the camp and that freaking crematoria....

    Oh my goodness.

    This was an amazing movie and we will remember all of those Jews who lost their lives to the disgusting crimes of Nazism and respect those who managed to survive.

  • If This Is A Man by Primo Levi

  • The movie was amazing. The songs are just as amazing! This song, especially when played during the movie, gave me chills. I actually felt afraid. these songs are so powerful!

  • That movie is perfect. Not only storywise but it's also absolutely gorgeous visually. The black and white contrast is pure eye candy. And the fact that they filmed it almost entirely on location makes it particularly poignant, especially the Auschwitz scene with the train. It's emotional watching a movie filmed on a set, but watching this and knowing that it's the real thing, combined with that music, is surreal.

    And I was glad they had Josef Mengele in there too, if only for a few seconds.

  • I lost my virginity to this song

  • @MarioBrosClassic are you kidding me? did you get turned on by this?

  • @loveput23 yea? so?

  • @MarioBrosClassic is that before people realised you didn't have a full deck?

  • 3 people who disliked this are pro-nazi assholes

  • Easily the most emotionally-appropriate score ever written.

  • Co wy kurwa wiecie o zaborach i wojnie.

  • I saw this movie today........ and I can still remember the screams of terrified women and children.

  • this piece is so sceary, i honeslty can hear the people scream and you really feel their fear. its like you hear death!

  • I cried during this scene. I was very emotional during this movie. From sobbing at the death of the girl in the red coat to the shower scene. I was so angry about Nazism.

  • People who say this masterpiece doesn't evoke any emotion must have been created by SkyNet. It sends chills down my spine and gives me a feeling of despair and great sadness for all the souls who've been lost during the holocaust. It was one of the darkest period in the history of mankind that must never be repeated nor forgotten, it gives us a glimpse of nationwide racism and what horrible dreadful, tragic, senseless and utterly despicable things it brews. No, it must not be forgotten!

  • @309633246 no it was not the darkest period of mankind... and im not trolling its just the truth. people always talk about the holocaust and forget about all the other people who have died. 6 million jews died. did you know 20 million russians died during ww2? Also, Russians where treated a lot worse in the camps than the Western prisoners of war because USSR was not a signatory of the Geneva Convention. So stop crying about the holocaust and the jews. and start crying about ALL people that died

  • @squirtleenblastoise I said one of, not the darkest period of mankind. Please reread my comment. As for the stop crying part, I can cry all I want. I've had ancestors who've passed away in concentration camps. I'm not disregarding all the other horrible things out there that have happened but this particular incident deeply affected me.

  • @squirtleenblastoise You are one of the people that are make youtube go downhill by causing stupid arguments - why do you have to compare?? Maybe you should make a video dedicated to the russians who were treated badly, this video is to feel for and remember the Jews - please stop.

  • @Riftboy901 the jews had it worse than the russians, so shut it. you should know already

  • @309633246 I agree. I don't consider myself a too emotional person, but this piece and all the images it creates makes me almost burst into tears, even though I have no relations what-so-ever to anything what happened during that time.

  • @309633246 I absolutely agree! If this piece of music does not bring tears to your eyes or send chills down your spine... than I don't know what to tell you. It is a MASTERPIECE and I love it. I actually FEEL pain when I listen to this..... This horrible period in time must not be forgotten, not only to remember ans mourn those who were brutalized and murdered, but also to ensure that history doesn't repeat itself. A chilling, gripping, amazing and painfully accurate film. We will never forget.

  • i really like it. i bring to my mind russian wars

  • i remember when i was a little boy my family and i went to Auschwitz and when i saw the crematorium i asked: what is that?

    my mother said :you're too young to understand it.

    so i asked years later

    i couldn't believe it. and now i am a strict hater of anything nazist or racist.

  • @Ahathian good for you, Nazism should be a crime everywhere, I am all for freedom of speech but Nazism is one thing that just should not be included in that category, all it does is inspire hate and ignorance. Anne Frank has been a huge inspiration to me, she has really touched me and inspired me to focus a lot of my historical studies on the Holocaust and try and shut the Holocaust deniers up, bunch of ignorant liars is what they are.

  • @RyZombie619 Gas the Nazis, that'll show'em.

  • It's interesting to notice that almost every music dedicated to this awful and hellish place on earth (Auschwitz II) uses violin (see Yehudi Menuhin sonatas and partitas for solo violin). For me, the music that would be as chilling as this place are "Solitude" by Ennio Morricone (The thing soundtrack) and Penderecki "Polymorphia". Listen to it, you will tell me if you agree..

  • this has got to be my favorite song from the soundtrack because it's so chilling that I l

  • sounds like the music from chinese epic historical films

  • I recently went to Auschwitz I and II as part of a visit.

    And then listened to this when I returned.

    The music really does evoke the terrifying, sickening nature of what occurred. How man could be capable of something like that within living memory. Ugh it's not even worth thinking about.

  • The Holocaust was tragic. But the Holodomor is an ugly silence.

  • @Bla31n not to mention Ataturk's genocide which the west wont even acknowledge

  • Not to sound like a pussy or anything, but this movie was fucking SICK.

    Unless your a real creep who shouldn't be allowed to live, randomly shooting a hot Jewish lady just because she offered some engineering help to you is AWEFUL

    Along with the sniping scenes.

  • @CaptPreston

    I so agree I saw it once because I thought it sounded good, then my grandma said it was made by Speilberg and Im like now this is really good. Then I finished watching it and I thought this was the SICKEST movie ever. And Liam Neeson made me cry at the end when he felt guilty about the car. I was like "you've done enough man, you did great"

  • @ahtartersauce101 That scene is the only time that I've ever cried in a movie. Neeson was incredible.

  • I think I've said tihs before somewhere but its hard not to listen to any track from this soundtrack and not feel emoitonally connected to it.

    John Williams just knows how to tug at your heart strings.

  • i;ve listened to this for the past 10 years in the morning... dont know why... lets me know where iam

  • This soundtrack is so freaking sad.

  • This song is horrifying, I see the faces of those led to the crematorium in the film. And it just, it makes me mad, how countries knew about this and let it happen!

  • thanks for the post, great movie..!!!

  • May all the souls find peace in the arms of God! Balkan is greeting

  • John Williams is such a genius.

  • Comment removed

  • Great movie, Great Soundtrack!

  • Every time that i hear this music a start thinking about Auschwitz, this music fits the scene so well, it gives me chills. I love the music and i love The Schindler's List , one of the best movies ever!!

  • Die Auschwitzszene ist ein wahres Horrorscenario...

    Oswiecim heists jetzt Diese Musik ist auch der Horror!

  • Thanks for 12 seconds of silence at the beginning of the video.

  • This is probably the eeriest song ever, and incredibly fitting for the scene.

  • man thats unnecessary.obviously you dont understand.

  • lol it was a joke -.- calm down....

  • The whole WWII was disgusting. The real number of people who died is around 60 million. Thats throughout each war.

  • i just saw the film. this part was so creepy.

  • @0180917

    you find that creepy? pethatic! have you ever visited a concentration camp? guess not! i did, i visited mauthausen a big camp in austria near linz! that's creepy, knowing all those people died there! gas chambers and so on! but hey , don't you mind, you have your own concentration camp, guantanomo bay, and now we have accept those people in to europe!. you americans are all learning from movies made by hollywood. none the less this is a good movie!

  • I was only commenting on the movie and how I thought this scene was creepy. jeez...calm down. lol you put a question mark at the end of almost every sentence.

  • Душераздирающее музыка.... Вспоминаю как Спилберг показал Бухенвальд...

  • i remember the scene in the film - we don't see that they are walking to their death but we see that they are walking down stairs and then the film films up on the pipe-stone with smoke and then the music...

  • I honestly cannot believe how incurably shallow you are. He stood up for what he believed in? That's why you like him?

    He knew it was wrong! Before the Olympics the Jews were being persecuted by the Nazis anyway, but as soon as the eyes of the world turned to Germany they stopped for a while. Then when all the media and press had died down they carried on. Have you actually seen Schindler's List? 'Cause if you had then you'd know it wasn't right.

  • a very horrifying piece.

    schindler's list has such great music throughout the many wonderfully constructed scenes.

  • Well, I see their point. You probably SHOULD try and stop taking them. All they're doing is screwing up your body. However, if you want to die young, please, go ahead and carry on. I would have thought something like Schindler's List is enough to make you think. Imagine how many people would have given their front teeth to be free, to know that they weren't going to die tomorrow, and all you can do is take your life for granted and throw it away.

  • this melody is nothing but awesome! I can't believe how excellent is it! I Love it!

  • This music has just the right amount of subtlety to let the film display the horrors of the Holocaust, but at the same time have emotional effect on the audience itself.

  • horrors what do you mean?

  • Seriously?

  • Excuse me. Please, please tell me that you know what the Holocaust is. Does genocide ring any bells?

  • So you're saying that we should wipe out an entire race because of that? We should commit genocide, pick on one particular race, just because we can? God, I hope you never get into government.

    In actual fact, Hitler knew damn well that what he was doing was sick and twisted and wrong.

    It is NOT just a statistic. Imagine how you would feel if someone close to you died. Distraught? Now multiply that by six million. These people got no respect when they were alive. They deserve some in death.

  • You're a fucking, fanatic idiot! Too bad you will never experience what the jewish people had to.

  • your sick

  • This is some really creepy stuff.

  • I got scared when all the women were shipped to Auschwitz

  • I think they were too...

  • @Ducksterforce i know right? it was so tense... and then it was just water.

  • @Ducksterforce Me too. I actually thought they were gonna die cause they put acid in the showers and stuff. I breathed I huuuge sigh of relief when they got saved. Unfortunately, Bruno and Schmuel from The Boy in The Sriped Pyjamas werent so lucky.

    PS- When I heard this soundtrack, something in my stomach felt like I was going to hell. Not sure what is was, but damn...

  • Please, do not listen to this at night. I promise, you won't close an eye. And if you can, you will have the most terrific nightmare, finding yourself in Auschwitz, with this number burned into your arm and beeing helpless delievered to the SS...

  • i listen to this at night all the time, and i do not have that strange dream. as a matter of fact it makes me dream of being one of the people who helped liberate Auschwitz and the other nazi camps.

  • god this peice is amazing. this peice should remind us of the death and cruelty that happens around the world every day.

  • I hate it when people say that movie scores evoke no emotion... Just listen to it. "This track chills me to the bone. Everytime I hear it, I see the gates of Birkenhau, towering. Looming. Its frightening. You can almost feel the fear from this track alone. The tension. The hopelessness. It almosts opens death into you." This person couldn't be more correct!

  • Your words are almost just as moving as the music...

  • i agree, all soundtracks evoke some emotion. some maybe a little more then others but they all do it and there is no arguing that point.

  • @6Nagas6

    You HAVE to go to Brzezinka to realize...The visit is really crushing!

  • @6Nagas6 wow, if someone ever tried to tell me that I'd slap them upside the head. Movie scores evoking no emotion...really??? I've never seen this movie but this song still makes me feel sad and sends chills running through my body!

  • @6Nagas6 You're absolutely right. When I went to Auschwitz a while ago with my history uni class I had this piece constantly running through my head. Sadness is actually not an emotion you feel there until after you leave. The only thing you feel when walking around the camp is sheer, paralysing fear. That place is honestly the closest thing to Hell I can imagine. It is hate incarnate.

  • @6Nagas6 oh no, this song chills me to the bone as well, one of freakiest songs ever, it sounds like death, or decay, its pure evil this song, but that is what makes it great, it just screams Auschwitz. still amazing how all of this could have happened to people, blows my mind that people were so idiotic to follow Hitler like that. unreal. RIP the millions murdered by the Nazi's.

  • I visited this place in the summer. Chilling place. think this movie, and the music, really transmits the scale of the tragedy

  • This track chills me to the bone. Everytime I hear it, I see the gates of Birkenhau, towering. Looming. Its frightening. You can almost feel the fear from this track alone. The tension. The hopelessness. It almosts opens death into you.

  • Chills..

  • This track trancends time, place and the medium itself...

  • Just epic.

  • As of right now, Schindler's List is #3 on my list of the best films I have ever seen.

  • This music really depicts the cruelty of humanity.

  • 201 views? people really cant appreciate good music these days aye?

  • i agree with you xXhanniballecterJXx it is not just teenagers these days who can't appreciate good music its younger adults too. just too let you know im 18 although i sound closer to 53.

  • hey man im 16 and i love this music

  • thats refreshing to hear, i was just talking in general with that comment. it was not directed to any particular person.

  • You know I used to think that nobody my age would care to see harrowing masterpieces of the cinema and history. I was 15 (now 20) when I first saw Schindler's List and I must say that I too felt like I was 3 times my age. But then again, not too many young people have seen the Holocaust film 'Nuit et brouillard' as I did.

  • @Dutchman165 I'm *14* and I love this

  • Hey, that insults me. I hear Mozart, Soundtracks (like this), classic music (Simon and Garfunkel etc.)...

  • i am sorry, but like i said it was a general comment not directed at any one person in particular.

  • I'm well under 18 and I absolutely love Sountrack Scores. John Williams is my favourite.

  • good for you, i hope you stay this way and not turn into a mainstream music lover that has no ear for the good stuff. p.s. that comment was just a general comment not directed at any one person.

  • It's good music, but I can understand why people wouldn't want to have a piece as harrowing as this on their ipods.

  • i have it on my ipod nizlopi2, along with alot of other songs like it.

  • I love music like this because it makes me think. It appeals to the deeper part of me ...

  • that's deep =]

  • lol .. I guess I was a little vague. Sometimes I'm like that when I can't explain myself adequately ...

  • no, i just like to comment peoples comments...dude, thats deep XD

  • lol ok :)

  • the track has now more than 8,800 views

  • over 9,000 now.

  • 26,285 people start to know the true value of such pieces.

  • @triheadwar1996 the track has now more than 28,000 views!
