Jerry Goldsmith Tribute music video

[peppersax]

What a gorgeous and emotional theme. From the first note, I could identify Goldsmith's music. He was and is, one of my favorite film composers. #1 goes to Bernard Herrmann, who Jerry use to study with.

[celco77]

great tribute - thanx

[Lx3IV]

STAR TREK THE MOTION PICTURE.

My favorite soundtrack. I never tire of listening to it.

Miss you Jerry.

[ab4rereleaseCspray]

Could a JG fan with greater techno knowledge than me post his composition of the theme for Hour of the Gun. It richly deserves its place amongst the best western movie soundtracks.

[walkabou5]

Great music, great man.

Jerry was one of the greats and is much missed but his wonderful legacy of music will always live on.

[lucaslanzone]

jerry the best !!!

[vividwatch47]

Are you sure Goldsmith scored part of "Don't Bother To Knock". There's a main title, but no other scoring.

[ComposerJWilliams]

I miss you Goldsmith.

Butt your music will always tears my hart.

Jerry Goldsmith R.I.P.

Maurice Jarre also died, Hermann and Michael Kamen. We now only have the godfather John Williams.

[luigibattista10]

You forgot Ennio Morricone. ;)

[TheFamilySlitheen]

The main theme from First Contact is for me not only the best piece Jerry Goldsmith wrote for a movie but for me the best piece of movie music ever. It is a hauntingly beautiful theme that never fails to give me goosebumps.

A great tribute to a great man.

[walkedreader]

Don't forget Tora,Tora,Tora. The man was always the maestro, from Star Trek in 67 when I was 4 till now, I've always heard this guy's themes with television programs and movies. He always maintained a level of excellence that others had to stretch far to reach, and did it effortlessly. He'll never be forgetten.

[FalconCAT]

Theeeeeeeeeeeee BEST!!! THX JERRY !!!

[baldo157]

His music live forever!

[MyHolas]

the best music off all times!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cinebird]

'In like flint' was the first movie score that really made an impact on me at the age of 9, 38 years later it's still my favorite and most listened to soundtrack.

[rosso1000]

I have some Goldsmith LPS going cheap on ebay uk like ALIEN, THE FINAL CONFLICT, TWILIGHT ZONE THE MOVIE etc ebay user name top.vision. Love this theme btw.

[dingorex]

I almost shouted "long live Jerry Goldsmith" at the Wildwood theater showing First Contact after the opening credits. I listened to the Explorers soundtrack the most but his Star Trek scores are more often in my car's CD tray nowadays.

[digitaljosh]

Rambo First Blood Part 2 was my favorite!

[dafmurray]

10 favourite Goldsmith music moments continued:

'Katya's Theme' as used in the opening credits of the Russia House.

Any cue in Under Fire.

Both the main theme and the German March from Patton.

Main Theme from Chinatown

[dafmurray]

Anyone interested in listing their very favourite Goldsmith musical moments. My ten would be (in no particular order):

Supergirl flying to Argo City before the end credits.

Anything from Star Trek The Motion Picture, but possibly Kirk's introduction in San Francisco.

The funeral pyre music in First Night.

The end credits of 'The First Great Train Robbery'.

The jettisoning of Kane's body from the Nostromo in Alien.

'The Search' from Planet of the Apes.

[simgadraco2005]

brilliant tribute, I only just found out that he died, made me really sad, was thinking of making my own tribute to jerry, and I might do that at the later stage, 10 min tribute to this great composer.

[Nonius9]

The score of this video, where's film from?

¿De que pelicula es esta musica?

Grande Goldsmith!!!

[simgadraco2005]

Star trek, first contact, end credits...

[waddleduckie1]

I hope Jerry Goldsmith will be remembered when his birthday comes up on the 10th of February. I am so fond of him. I hope to shame the shabby critics of the Rotten Tomatoes.

[vividwatch47]

He also received the Governor's Award from the Academy From National Recording Arts And Sciences (because of his vast L.P. and C.D. output).

[vividwatch47]

Why doesn't Jerry Goldsmith have a star on Hollywood's Walk Of Fame? (but then again, neither do the other two film composing J's [John Williams and John Barry], don't have one!)

[RubberIceCream]

This is moving, excellent job Muller. I've been so busy, I honestly didn't know Jerry Goldsmith died four year ago. We'll always have his legacy.

[JillHill7]

He wrote the music for the Secret of NIMH and Legend, two nostalgic favorties of mine! he will be missed! RIP Jerry Goldsmith

[axecalibore]

I wonder if anyone knows Jerry wrote the Doctor Kildare theme. A Patch of Blue was also good.

[Dodexas]

He's a GENIUS!

[Manta2015]

Still get pretty sad each time I hear this music.  He was Absolutely brilliant.

[CineExpress]

Not to rain on anyone's parade but this video skipped Goldsmith's most prolific and memorable years during the late Sixties and Early Seventies. Goldsmith is remembered not by his Star Trk: The Movie theme but for Planet Of The Apes ('68), Patton('70), Chinatown('74), Papillon('73), The Wind and The Lion('73), QB VII ('74), etc. The Star Trek and Alien soundtracks are marginal compared to work done in this period.

[msmuller]

You are right, Goldsmith did many memorable thing in his lifetime, I just selected to set a little focus on Star Trek be course this was the way I learned to know him and love his music talent.

[thefinalfrontier1701]

@CineExpress From what I hear, Goldsmith stated he could "dump" his emotions in Star Trek. Star Trek is where it all came together for him and his music.

[reformedfruit]

Great music. Goldsmith was remarkable.

[Elizabeththegreatest]

You know , I liked Marco Beltrami's score for the remake of the Omen , but he cannot beat Jerry Goldsmith! His music for that movie scares the shit of me!

[0FindGlory]

I got to see Jerry in the flesh in the late 90s at the Albert Hall, London. Short interview beforehand then he conducted some of his stuff. He seemed a tad cynical about film directors and his relationships with some of them! but that's to be expected. R.I.P. Jerry. Your music stays.

[0FindGlory]

What is the piece of music from?

[msmuller]

It's from the Star Trek: First Contact soundtrack, Main Title, Locutus (first track)

[piapiapiapiano]

wow brilliant video i congradulate you made me feel so sad that he is no longer among us, and by far this and air force one is my favourite score of his

[pxwfile]

When I heard of his death, this exact piece of music came to mind. I had "rediscovered" it about a year ago, and I played it as a salute to a great composer. These are my favorite soundtracks of his: Man From UNCLE, Patton, ST:TMP (greatest theme ever?), The Omen, Great Train Robbery, Boys From Brazil, Cassandra Crossing, The Mummy, Alien, Hook. What is most amazing about his career is how different his music sounds from movie to movie. Thanks, Jerry! This piece is a perfect sendoff.

[LimaLy]

Awesome, I'm about to cry...great man - great music.

The world has lost one of the most brilliant composers ever. We'll miss you jerry...

[CheeseheadTanner]

Bravo! Goldsmith = Best film composer of all time.

[morgstar1]

Thank you for posting this. I never met Jerry but i miss him like i miss a freind. I put on a CD and its like he is still here.

[FrederickRD]

Very impressionant hommage. Never forget you Mr Goldsmith, i'll aways hearing our musics thinking about you. Peace on your mind.

Frédérick, FRANCE, - FRANCE and the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, greats brothers, isn'it? YES - FRANCE never forget you!-

[AnyaAngie]

Thanks for posting. Truly he was one of the greatest composers of all time, honestly. Right up there with Beethoven!

[Lennyfred]

I have no words to say how much i miss you, Jerry. May you and your music never be forgotten!

[bri13615]

loved that Man from UNCLE theme, the first one he did in 1964.

[snk07]

RIP...one of the bests with john william

[PenisWurst030]

damn i love this sound

[AlexDeLarge90]

the best there was scoring films

well after Ennio Morricone and Bernard Herrmann of course

[GOPJ00]

The other day I was watching Michael Crichton's Runaway and Jerry Goldsmith did the score on Yamaha Digital Instruments and it was so great. God bless his soul.

[vividwatch47]

May both Michael Crichton and Jerry Goldsmith rest in peace.

[vividwatch47]

Goldsmith appeared in a photo/print ad for Yamaha keyboards that was seen only in the U.K. (it must have been a great promotional device).

[GOPJ00]

IT WAS!

[farmall1947]

may jerry rest in peace

[cromicus]

Beautiful music.

[IsabelTopTenClub21]

I remember seeing Jerry Goldsmith at the Barbican - it was a fantastic show. He is very sadly missed.....

[vincedog3]

god bless you Jerry. Your music will always inspire and captivate audiences for generations to come. You were and are the best.

[Hetoreyn]

Damn right he was the best. Missed deeply .. but never forgotten. He sets my own musical writing standards to the highest. Miss him terribly.

[Chevron7engage]

He was truly the greatest!

[brudi12]

Puuhh, i can't believe that this brilliant

composer is dead - it takes my breath !

Jerry you unforgettable - i miss and i love you.

[amit790]

R.I.P Jerry. We'll miss you

[zooshipcaptain]

This theme is so beautiful than I though it would be great to use for funerals. It's a shame than in France, there was any evocation - even very short - on TV about Jerry at time of his death.( it's strange, one day I was totally mysteriously obsessed by every Total Recall's themes and I lernt after Jerry died this same day..)

[heltunikt]

Very nice tribute. Thank you.

[brazz105]

Which music was used here?

[msmuller]

It's from the Star Trek: First Contact soundtrack, Main Title, Locutus (first track)

[ronboy38]

Could write all night about Goldsmith. More innovative than John Williams, i.e. 1st Apes movie and V'ger Star Trek. Was Capicorn One soundtrack ever released? Great love theme!

[Chevron7engage]

Ditto. He had such great range. His compositions for The Russia House and Rudy are examples of how innovative he truly was. He was and still is the best.

[vividwatch47]

Yes, both as the original soundtrack on a now out of print Intrada C.D., and more recently, Collectors' Choice Music just reissued the rerecording that was originally released on L.P. on Warner Bros. (and reissued and coupled with "Outland" on G.N.P. Crescendo).

[RichardKleiner]

good tribute, though the looney tunes back in action title was a little embarrasing. but hey, goldsmith is the real master

[ketandev]

Great video Great tribute Greatest composer!!

[alufa1]

Jerry Goldsmith was a true composer. I loved all his music. I wish there was a place that

I could download one of my favoriate music

scores that he did, but I can't find any.:( Jerry May you rest well in Hashem's arms.

[worfey]

nice tribute i love jerry goldsmiths music. Looney Tunes Back in Action was on tv last night. so i watched it

[mainmission]

A very nice tribute to one of the greatest composers of our time. He is truly missed.

[vincedog3]

great post. I can't imagine Star Trek without Jerry's genius at how dramatic and exciting the music makes Star Trek. Jerry Goldsmith was and is Star Trek. God bless him.

[shubus]

I have to agree 100% with "chrisman737" Jerry along with Bernard Herrmann produced the most memorable and ingenious scores ever seen in Hollywood.

[chrisman737]

Nice tribute to a great film composer. Actually, his scores from the 70's are among my favorites: Patton, Chinatown, The Hindenburg, and TV show themes like The Waltons and Room 222. I think his score for Star Trek The Motion Picture (1979), not well appreciated at the time, remains his greatest work. Extraordinary and inventive.

[vividwatch47]

The Hindenberg (1975) was scored by David Shire.

[kishgoldsmith]

i beleive jerry goldsmith is the composer of composers,hence i have his name.

[Nihilanth1982]

best goldsmith soundtrack imo is ALIEN. literally flawless score

[elisan693]

This is a very nice tribute to the most talented composer the world has grew to know and appreciate!  I sure miss the incredible Jerry Goldsmith.

[miscfilms]

I was lucky enough to see Jerry conduct his own work in 2001 and 2003 concerts. What a guy!

[LollypopCandyGirl]

U ROCK JERRY!!

[Bunifilth]

The theme from 13th Warrior is great as well!

[Niitroshark]

Theme from Hollow man is also excellent. One of the greatest composers of all time.

[tresckow]

his soundtrack for the blue max just was ass kicking!

[dingorex]

His title theme for First Contact had me almost yell 'Long live Jerry Goldsmith',

Insurrection is also so heavenly it raised that movie to a greatness that it would not have without Jerry Goldsmith.

[marcodevienne]

I was 13 years old when i discovered Jerry Goldsmith with the film "the omen". It was so impressive as music... Since I bought all the moving score I can find. for me, the best are : "under fire", the trilogy "the omen", "legend", "papillon", "basic instinct" and the wonderful music of the generique of the tv serie "star trek voyager"

[ShacklerIII]

This must have been composed when he knew the end was near for him. My god what a powerful theme, defnitely one of his best .

[Laistrygon]

I must be living behind the moon, til now I didn't even know he doesn't dwell under the living anymore...very nice movie btw :-)

[rachel112263]

Some of my all time favorites are In Like Flint, Breakheart Pass, Barnaby Jones, Room 222, Planet of the Apes, etc....... He wrote such beautiful music. Thank you for the tribute!!

[afterglow2009]

i WAS LOOKING FOR THIS! THANKS A BUNCH THIS IS REALLY GOOD!

[elvirasweeney]

Thank you so much for this tribute. I wish you'd make a downloadable version! It's simply beautiful.

[citysnickers]

jery goldsmith is my favorite composer, thank you

[KARNELLino]

Wonderful, timeless, makes a Gooseskin.

The Main Theme from ST -TMP- and this Masterpiece, "First Contact" are my alltime Favourites.

Thanks for all of this, Jerry.

[suicunetudor]

A name Hollywood will never forget.

[frankd1965]

A great Hollywood composer. Gone but, not forgotten.

[bpewien]

Great tribute!

[shardasmal]

this made me cry, thanks!
