The Voice of God

[Metallicuss]

Haha in the end he was like "You dick!"

[tkendirli]

This is a masterpiece of acting...with an another masterpiece from Mozart. Salute Abraham....

Of course Milos...

[camila11492]

How I met your mother anybody?

[WhiteWolf56765]

IT WAS GOD!

[ConstanzeWeber]

Mozart wrote for winds like no other man ever could!! This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written!!

[mousa23abuissa]

Does anyone know the name of the piece that they are playing ?? I just can't stop listening to it, I want the actual recording.. :)

[bonysek1997]

@mousa23abuissa

Mozart Serenade No 10 In B Flat Major K 361 III Adagio

[mousa23abuissa]

@bonysek1997 Thank you very much :)

[stanleyworkman]

This is my favorite scene from the movie... so much of the plot is fictionalized, but you can really imagine Salieri (and the rest of us!) thinking this, as we hear the miracle which is Mozart's music!

[JHSchwarzkopf]

The appreciation that I get every time @ 1:27 for allowing the single note of the Oboe to be delivered without comment is commended.

The priest not hearing a single note, but rather a man's description of a tune...oh, how sad for the priest of not being able to hear what is being played in the mind of Selieri...forever haunting him till his last days...

[tkendirli]

i watch this scene many times. This scene is a masterpiece of cinematographie. agree with Milos Forman the hole movie is designed by Mozart's genius & music. F.Murray Abraham gives an sublime performance. He's a great talent. Thanks Milos. For your point of view..

[GrandeSalvatore96]

Family Guy brought me here!

[gdoumerc1984]

@hipedyhop

Mozart :Serenade For Winds; K. 361; 3rd Movement

[ohedd]

@hipedyhop Serenade for winds No. 10 I think

[TheJosephValentino]

wtf what movie is this?

[mousa23abuissa]

@TheJosephValentino

its called Amadeus , its about the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, on of the best composers in history.

[TheJosephValentino]

@mousa23abuissa thankx

[TheRadioman1976]

"...sweetened to a phrase of such delight..." After hearing that passage, it made me hungry for something deliciously sweet.

[AngelBiLove]

@TheRadioman1976 Lol :3 viewing amadeus makes you go "me hungry! om nom nom nom" I can already see the director go "THATS NOT THE POINT D: STOP EATING" lol

[SIMPLYTEETS]

German speaking composers, simply the best...

[ONAR21]

This movie sounds amazing on blu ray... Love it..

[JuanDeSoCal]

EXCUSE ME! (rustle rustle... tromp tromp tromp...)

[PalaceOfExile]

@JuanDeSoCal Lmfao! The balls on that guy, right?

[Pinkchyo]

WHATS THE NAME OF THAT COMPOSITION?

[TheJoshuaCarter]

@Pinkchyo It's the 3rd movement of Serenade No. 10 for Winds in B flat major,

[Iloveinsegnamento]

I love hearing him describe the music he hears, on the page. Wonderful clip :-)

[BigBagsForRent]

People make way to much out of Mozart's music. I don't hear the voice of god in his stuff - sounds like any other composer of his day. Beethoven on the other hand...

[StradAmatiViolin]

@BigBagsForRent When mozart wrote music, it was perfect the first time he wrote it. But beethoven corrected his. But I love beethoven. And Mozart and Bach. I just love them all!

[Gwenalltapowain]

@benjosephuyacot!I,ll tell you what that music is it's, Serrnade "Gran Partita" K361 (3rd movement)

Glad to help! Lol!

[Gwenalltapowain]

@bgbullies89!!!!!!oi looooooser! Come and talk to me when you can write music like this prodigy!!

[bgbullies89]

Dude how the fuck do you like this? OMG! I want to able like this.

[bgbullies89]

thumbs up for grinning at salieri's delightful description of mozart's immortality.

[bgbullies89]

ladies and gentle when you can compose a music in your head by observing a symbol that is called passion

[benjosephcuyacot]

what is the title of the music piece that Saliere is refering to?

thanks...

[Detritus831]

@benjosephcuyacot Serenade For Winds, K.361: 3rd Movement

[Gradyahk]

yasb!

[oldixe]

It takes a wonderful script and a wonderful actor. Worlds apart from Avatar. It is a shame that more people saw Avatar.

[bomberz3000]

@oldixe True True

[IXIWineIXI]

both salirie's are great great actors

[igmuowachihoka]

@IXIWineIXI I THINK IS THE SAME ONE: F. MURRAY ABRAHAM (ONE OF THE RARE WELL GIVEN OSCARS).

[cbsooner]

@IXIWineIXI It's the same guy lol

[mrgerbeck]

Awesome acting

[DanoruX]

And suddenly... a pickle. The most playful little pickle...

[StupidHippie21]

i watched this movie three times, and i always cried at this part

[oaoJ69Joao]

@StupidHippie21 :)

[maxpowers518]

lol, Family Guy..."It was GODDDD!"

[pianoCsolo]

[pianoCsolo]

@disamjisa thx you so much TT

[disamjisa]

@pianoCsolo No problems, enjoy! Its a beautiful piece of music.

[vacuumlover1]

Play Peter Griffin.

[dinkarrao1]

love hanamoon

[vbatuhan]

These are originals scene and this scene in the movie Amadeus my favorite scenes and i can watch until end without getting bored

[eqkimble1890]

Nice post - very clean. One of my favorite scenes too ...

[1hanamoon]

love marybeth

[disamjisa]

@FacckUtube That makes no sense whatsoever, either gramatically or in terms of intelligibility. Why don't you hold off making comments on youtube until you''ve grown up a bit

[FacckUtube]

@disamjisa who da fuck are u, the utube police? Suck my cock you blind bat. Why does it not make sense? Apparently it did, and apparently your programmed drone like mind couldn't process it and made you react with your ass. English isnt my 1st language, but I am sure U won't understand Dutch, Turkish or German, so stop complaining like a bitch.., ya filty jude

[disamjisa]

@FacckUtube Your original comment doesn't make sense, its as simple as that. I assumed you were either not a proficient English speaker, or some KKK redneck. I see now from the Neo-Nazi paraphernalia on your profile page that its really par for the course. Knowinh that, you're probably a closet gay or something.

Speaking of drones, its a funny accusation coming from someone who can only repeat mindless slogans like "fucking jew.. illuminati icon piece of shit" and ''ya filthy jude".

[FacckUtube]

@disamjisa What slogans?? the truth is hard to digest if it is one you do not want to accept(or even cant see). Everyone in holy wood moving pictures is a jude. The people you have learned about in history class, the key-figures, like Mozart, Bach, Newton, Darwin, Copernicus, Einstein etc, etc, where people working FOR the agenda and now they are icons used to further program us, as to create and stimulate the illusion of progress. As if where are evovling.., it seems to me we're going backwards

[disamjisa]

@FacckUtube Its funny you mention "You have so much to learn my jude friend". Considering your other anti-semitic comments, I doubt you'd consider any Jew your friend. It's ironic considering I am Jewish myself, and concerned about the pyramidic power structure, the steady erosion of personal liberty.

Gay people and Jews aren't your enemies if you're really concerned about global political and economic integration and heirarchal political systems and modes of control.

[FacckUtube]

@disamjisa whatever moron, jewish moron

[Doika86]

@disamjisa just stop feeding the troll lol

[disamjisa]

@Doika86 Will do from now. I don't think he's actually a troll, just misguided and passionate.

[yyeims]

serenade N 13 'GRAN PARTITA" Sir Charles Mackerras is the version i like,

this is what critics call MASTERPIECE

[50bhhamnt]

Saleri always said "Why did God give me the desire, but not the skill?" Work hard and earn it; God helps those who help themselves!

[miss26tiki]

such a powerful scene - brings your attention to the individual components that make the whole

[kxmode]

the video and audio are out of sync. :(

[DrJellyfinger]

@kxmode

Unfortunately you have to watch it in 240p for it to sync.

[HermitCatMan]

I first saw Amadeus in seventh grade. This scene has been my favorite movie scene since then.

[VikingThor1]

..and then ..suddenly ! high above it .... an oboe

a single note, hanging there unwavering

brilliant !

[berlinburn]

whatta great movie...

i love it

[mjoliveirayt]

um dos filmes que mais admirei.... qq dia podemos ve-lo juntos... levo o dvd as pipocas e vemo-lo no carro ;-)

[jankrupski86]

i love this composition, but i don't know the title of it... Maybe sb know...

[Klapaucius5691]

Serenade No. 10 in Bb K361-370a - Adagio

[PlanetaSugus]

"Serenade for winds" K 361, 3rd movement

Mozart = the sound of perfection

[xover76]

@jankrupski86 "Serenade No. 10 in B-Flat Major, K. 361, "Gran Partita": III. Adagio"

[Weasler455]

@jankrupski86  Serenade for Winds, K. 361; Third Movement (by Mozart, of course).

[El135o]

Interesting ... even today, producers and 'elite' composers sneer at simplicity in music. But it's the simple pieces that LAST. The highfalutin complexity melts back into the mist ...

[todaparte]

Mozart was Maradona classic´s music, the true composer of all the times was Ludwig van Beethoven, he was our Pelé.

[jessc1979]

I don't know why, but the technique of making Salieri able to hear the music just my *reading* the notes is very ingenius.

I wonder, can experienced composers do this?

I also love Abraham's dialogue here. I admit, if I have heard the song first on its own, I might have not have truly appreciated it.

[SafetyMan911]

It's an absolute requirement for any composer to hear music that way. It's one of the only ways composers like Beethoven could write after becoming deaf. It takes time, but it's perfectly possible (as my brother puts it.).

[jessc1979]

Oh yeah, I forgot about Beethoven, but in his case, he's a super genius in music. I wasn't sure about experienced composers but it seems your brother says it's not only possible but a requirement!

[Dragnim]

F. Murray Abraham, greatest acting performance i think i will see in my life time.

[roughcovers]

amadeus - a movie every musician should see

[marcvs1]

you're welcome EQ

[Dannypage22]

excuse me!

[alexilmagnifico]

actually in his last years he got crazy and he acclaimed that me murdered Mozart, that was the effect to make the movie :)

[Plomomedia]

one of my favorite scenes and movies too.

[achan1058]

You know, with his talent to be able to read and interpret music on sight like that, he should just go ahead and become the next (or previous?) Herbert von Karajan or Leonard Bernstein.

Of course, in real life, he taught Beethoven, so if he actually wanted revenge, championing Beethoven (which he did not do) would have been the way to go.

[BoggiDTerminator]

Interesting observation but not really, since Beethoven inherited some of Mozart, which was crucial to his eventual development.

[msinvincible2000]

well, he also taught Mozart's sons.

But Beethoven was not a genious like Mozart, so, taughting him would never be a revenge. ;)

ps: Beethoven was great, I'm just saying, he wasn't a genious

[SIRJOSEPHPORTERKCB]

@msinvincible2000

Saying Beethoven wasn't a genius is...ill-advised. He wrote one of his most famous pieces DEAF, a rather big problem when one's writing music.

[msinvincible2000]

@SIRJOSEPHPORTERKCB well, Beethoven wasn't born deaf. When he became deaf, he already knew what music would give this or that note, so he could hear the music in his head ;)

[Lanark8]

No monkey indeed :}. Kind regards,

[littleshoeshopper]

I love his description of this song

[marcvs1]

Serenade For Winds; K 361; 3rd Movement

[eqkimble1890]

Thank you, marcvs1. I've been searching for the title for the longest time.

[violetberlin]

what is the song he is describing in this scene?

[KissHope]

How many times could you listen to that one note....the single note of the oboe, it delivers you from which you came. What a true Master.

[uba67]

This is scene is unforgettable, all the elements combine perfectly: the music, the performance, the storytelling... I could watch it over and over and over... Thanks for posting it!!!

[aaaayes]

This is one of the most intense scenes for me...the priest hears nothing...rambling on from an old mad man...only invited to hear the words & expressions that is being told to him...and for us...we are placed into Salirie's memory...to witness ourselves...of the experience that he relives in torment...for the benefit of us.

[emma473]

to aaaayes: beautifully written and so well said...one can't help, but feel sorry for Salieri, regardless of any (if any) involvement with Mozart's demise...Salieri was given the 'talent' to recognize greatness, but unable to produce 'greatness' himself. Darn...maybe he would have been better off had he been 'deaf' like all the others around him...

[paralysisboy]

@aaaayes That was one of the most terrific and accurate interpretation of the scene. It is people such as yourself who keep this music alive.

[carligo]

@aaaayes  How beautifuly said...this scene is amazing indeed. I can watch it over and over again...

[golfer78]

This is the scene that I like the most...!

[vinter1979]

this is just delightfull

[mynamespitt]

3rd party edification at it's best

[vinkirk]

This scene sends a tingling feeling up my spine every time I see it! F Murray Abraham's portrayal of a character who discovers and recognizes the true divine nature of Mozart's music is pure genius. I love how the scene ends!

[jeffamarie]

haha! I love the end of that scene, the music just stops DEAD.

[missmabel]

One of my fave scenes too!

[michaelsimkin]

Can you tell music by Mozart from that by Salieri?

A Google search for "quiz mozart salieri" will bring you the quiz.

[balto051490]

I love F. Murray Abraham. He did awesome as Salieri, and he is my all-time favourite actor. It is my dream to meet him.

[El135o]

This music should be broadcast to the stars until someone out there hears it, and wonders where something so perfect came from ...

[rhodesdarcy]

I completely agree :) it may have even have came from the stars

[schmeagals]

what was the song? that salleri was reading?

[dokimefreak]

Serenade for winds, K. 361 3rd movement

[KrismanX]

Thanks!

[DrunkenMastermind]

One of the favorite films, and one of my favorite performances. Whatever happened to F. Murray Abraham. It's a crime that Ashton Kutcher is a huge movie star, yet this guy has been virtually silent for two decades.

[beautiful0loser]

I first watched this as a teen in the movie theater. --WOW. There are many different movies out there that are good and that I love....but THIS will always be my fave!! Everything about the movie was beautiful to me. Thanks for sharing this.

[otacs2]

amadeus is the best movie ever!

[ginamari]

Yes, indeed F. Murray Abraham won the Oscar and Golden Globe awards for best actor in AMADEUS.

[alinehall]

Sir Colin Davies once said that there was only two things in the world that made him believe in God: one was his kids, the other was Mozart. I just need the last one. And this description...it really is the Voice of God!

[DeHeld8]

Brilliant acting by F. Murray Abraham (Salieri) just MADE the movie.

[dirtylos30]

classic movie,classic scene. just brilliant.

[NanaMchedlidze]

This film is brilliant. Absolutely brilliant! and this particular scene.... you can watch it over and over again and still be taken over by the overwhelmingly heartfelt, genuine emotions brought across.

[Xirus5]

you have a talent with words =) i agree with you very mutch

[Escepticus]

This scene, when i saw it for the first time at the cinema, made me hear the music in a very different way...amazing!

[Sant182]

I'm in tears

[Chilton20]

One of the best scenes in the whole movie.

[Waterhouz2007]

And then.. suddenly.. high above it!... An oboe.. a single note hanging there, unwavering! And then, a clarinet took it over. And sweetened it into a phrase of Such Delight:) This was no composition by a performing monkey. This.. was a music I'd never heard. Such longing.. Such unfullfilable longing!

[marylovesfrank]

The great thing about Peter Shaffer's play is that, although historically this is not a true story, it is full of breath taking musical comments. I have never read so heartfelt descriptions, they really put into words the emotions of listening to the 'Absolute beauty' (to quote the movie) of Mozart's music.

[regelemihai]

Genious....absolutly genious....and he's not a well renowned actor,which is weird. This is by far the best performance i've seen on a movie screen,and i'm an avid movie fan. Not only this scence,but the entire movie as well.

[marylovesfrank]

It's true, after this movie you would expected he would have become the most famous of Hollywood stars. Problem is that maybe, when you give such an astounding performance nobody can really see you in other roles. Such a shame. I really love him.

[regelemihai]

same here :(

[Escepticus]

Amen,regelemihai,so true what u say...

[regelemihai]

Isn't it? :)

[KuBa2385]

Yes! I was looking for this one. My favourite scene too. Don't you dare to remove it :)

[fldz]

My fav too. I bet they built the whole thing around this scene.

[mishimihendrix]

What's the name of that beautiful work?

[DrJellyfinger]

Serenade For Winds, K.361: 3rd Movement

[pacoray]

Murray Abraham is a wonderful actor...

[trypnik]

Truly a sublime performance...

[BlytheG]

One of my favorite scenes from the movie. Such pure emotion from Salieri.

[DrJellyfinger]

Yes, F. Murray Abraham did a spectacular job acting this scene.

[elysius]

thank you!

[DrJellyfinger]

You're Welcome! :)
