Master And Commander Soundtrack- Adagio from Concerto Gross

[HairdoWithFlowers]

I'm so grateful to this film because it introduced me to this beautiful piece of music which became my absolute favourite of all times! Actually the whole soundtrack fits beautifully. This music just lets me glow inside and I feel like melting and crying and laughing all at the same time.

[DevilsNeverDie666]

This is a song I would want played at all of my important events, my wedding, on my death bed, and at my funeral. It just fits those situations perfectly and it's such a beautiful piece.

[glorup]

over and over again

[vtamber64]

I want this to be my wedding march. So pretty!

[Flintlock1WIJ]

Replay button :D - 00:00

[benjaminburgess07]

@Flintlock1WIJ you like the repeat button? :) Try youtuberepeat(dot).com/watch?v­=nc2bm4URSso

[UntuchablSS]

....to sit in the sands of Brigantine Beach, to have the seagulls above me and the sand beneath my feet, to think of you and this piece playing in my ear buds...those are my favorite things.

[Ebonytears12]

Astoundingly beautiful and regrettably way too short. <3

[jhofmann33]

Kudos to Peter Weir. Introduced me to Arcangelo Corelli. I am ashamed I did not know Corelli's work before. I agree; best seafaring movie ever. 'May the saints and lords preserve us'. Classical music and the sea ... magnific.

[ellen672]

I heard from a cast member that the director was burnt out after the first one, the other cast members were up for it.

[elms91]

very rarely have i seen a movie whose soundtrack compliments it so perfectly

[LJRRR]

Um bom filme, com um ótimo ator e uma excelente música!

[newsgirl132]

loooove this movie, and the soundtrack makes it that much better.

[simonmordeci]

@newsgirl132 All things considered, it is a masterpiece!

[hatsunemiku444]

THIS MOVIE WAS JUST ON! i recognized the piece because my orchestra is playing it and i was basically ecstatic!

[CoopersQuill]

I really like classical music when its played in such a manner. This piece is so rich and the instruments complement each other.

[xXpensgirlXx]

so pretty. <3

[louisianahhh]

The entire production was complete perfection! A sequel would be very welcomed.

[buttaflystar91]

I really want this soundtrack!

[benjaminburgess07]

It's songs like this that are perfect for youtuberepeat(dot)com/watch/?v­=nc2bm4URSso

[samrulz7]

This song gives me chills. Love the Aubrey/Maturin series so much.

[JeremyImp]

This sounds so much like Handel...

[pshycberrycherry]

@JeremyImp Arcangelo Corelli was a generation before Handel. Teacher to Vivaldi who inspired Bach who gave inspiration to Handel and so on and so forth. It is no coincidence that this sounds like Handel.

[IRememberTheOldDays]

There are so many novels from Patrick O' Brian's M&C collection, a sequel must surely ensue! Alas, i doubt it :( Such an amazing film!

[Zeratul723]

One person either misclicked or has absolutely no taste.

[TonoFonseca]

This track makes me start into an air cello movement.

[TheBratzAttack]

The same here, too!

[megalissa21]

@TonoFonseca It makes me break out into, "Im a conductor" movement... I can conduct you! ; )

[lightlygrilled]

Patrick O'Brian was a wonderful author. I emailed 20 Century Fox along with many, many others so fingers crossed for a sequel!!

-Great shout about the repeat btw :)

[Nacho66]

The reason no sequel was made is because this movie was too well done.

No pointless female micro drama, no obvious heroes, no Hollywood bullshit at all.

Very historically accurate and faithful to the books.

Not a recipe for big box office I'm afraid.

Gets my vote for best seafaring movie of all time. To watch this movie in 5.1 Surround is a joy to behold.

[Leondias656]

@Nacho66 There was actually a sequel planned, the cast, studio everything but for some reason the cash got pulled. So instead of Awesome maritime epic part II we get stuff like the expendables, funny (first time watch that is) but not epic. Master & Commander is like the Godfather on water.

[Phoenix258]

@Leondias656 The crew, director and everyone involved, including the ships, have had the rights purchased for a total of three films. Crowe wants to do it apparently (and who the hell wouldnt), but its the film company that arent putting the cash in. Which is suprising, as M&C made a fortune.

[Leondias656]

@Phoenix258 Yeah it is unusual, These people generally think with their wallets and a sequel would have made an even larger fortune.

[Apocalyptism]

@Phoenix258 Actually master and commander LOST money

[Phoenix258]

@Apocalyptism According to imdb/wiki, it cost 150 million $ as a budget, and grossed $212million.

[Apocalyptism]

@Phoenix258 Fair point, but after subtracting the theater owner’s cut and the cost of advertising, the movie lost money. Not necessarily a lot of money, but it was a loser nevertheless, and the corporations who make movies these days usually do not make sequels of money losing movies.

[TonoFonseca]

@Apocalyptism

I guarantee you 'Master & Commander' would have MADE loads of money around the world if it stuck true to the book, which featured the HMS Surprise going after the USS Norfolk. But of course, it was made by an American company the movie was, so that wouldn't do of course...

[Clint945]

@Nacho66

As a past naval officer i completely agree with you, Very accurate movie and one that i really enjoyed watching.

[Nacho66]

@Clint945

I thank you for your service and kind comment.

[sylviahwchao]

@Nacho66: Totally agree with you. I went to theater for this movie three times.

[daftever]

@Nacho66 no hollywood bullshit? So why did they change the US ship by a french one?

business i guess...

[Nacho66]

@daftever

Because this movie takes place during the Napoleanic Wars not the American Revolution.

Try reading one of the books first. A mind is a terrible thing to waste...

[Yerabasan]

@Nacho66 well said.

[VerbalTraffic]

Just type repeat before .com on the url and it repeats the song automaticaly =]

[Tiramisumandeln]

@VerbalTraffic fuck me, you seriously deserve a cookie for that. thanks :)

[VerbalTraffic]

@Tiramisumandeln Your Welcome =]

[Ltprofile]

Master!

[rennaissance713]

i believe that this film won an oscar for for sound editing or somthing like that....i believe that teh film deserved more oscars in all types of categories, but at least they rewarded them for my favorite aspect of the film, the score and the soundtrack are absolutely fabulous in my opinion.... if i were rich, i'd personally fund a sequil!!!

[rennaissance713]

@knightTknight yes, i truly wish that the adagio movement in this particular piece lasted for hours.... it's so beautiful it almost makes me want to cry because it evokes such emotion.... i am an artist and whenever i need some inspiration for a painting or drawing this is one of the works i frequenty play to give me that creative burst.

[Georgebillbob]

corelli is a beast

[rennaissance713]

this is only the alllegro movement of the concerto... the whole is rather long in comparison. i engourage you all to listen in entirety

[ForzaJersey]

@rennaissance713 What is the name of the full concerto? And who is this by?

[rennaissance713]

@ForzaJersey Arcangelo Corelli opus 6... this is adagio movement from no. 8 "christmas concerto"

[ForzaJersey]

@rennaissance713 thank you

[yepesporto]

please tell me you didnt load this song for me.......no.....of course not, you only needed to stretch your legs.

[Tpeta]

Geeeeez no matter where I go, Justin Bieber just has to show up! >:(

[Themaricafe]

beatiful this song!!!

classical music is the song!

I love it!!

[18trence]

we all like classical music. who doesnt know and like the music from the harry potter, lord of the rings and transformers films?.

[1MrDonCarlos1]

Nope, no shame in having interest in classical music. I listen to almost any type of music, it's best to listen to everything...

[wewillrockyou92]

pardon my ignorance, but who wrote this piece?

[rennaissance713]

@wewillrockyou92 composer- Arcangelo Corelli - adagio from christmas concerto opus 6 no. 8

[wewillrockyou92]

@rennaissance713 thanks man :D

[oracle897]

I wonder if they'll Ever make a sequel

[moviesoundtrackgod]

@oracle897 I doubt.

[TheEdrianejosefb]

@moviesoundtrackgod you should not doubt people. doubt can lead to mischief. believe me. I've been there my whole life

[jonnopon]

@moviesoundtrackgod I heard they were going to, back near the film's release there were definitely plans for it - but they probably caught wind of Disney's Pirates of the Carribean plans by then and decided they wouldn't win out against it.

'tis a shame.

[GmrWeb]

@moviesoundtrackgod one of my fav movie that would be great but i don't think it had a real commercial sucess

[groome1320]

@oracle897 I've been waiting a long time ;__;

[Obbliteration]

@oracle897 The shouldn't

[kaitlinsoftball27]

@oracle897 I would love them too! But I fear they will not!

[gatsu38]

@oracle897 i hope they'll not.

[charmander4533]

@oracle897 They're too busy with Pirates of the Caribbean 4, 5 and 6

[JinrohDFLL]

@oracle897 Peter Weir, the director of this film, is one of the generation's master filmmakers. unfortunately his rate of production has slowed considerably over the past 2 decades. and i can assure you - he doesn't make sequel. you should check out his latest film The Way Back though. it's just as epic.

[thehandylightman]

@oracle897 they should though :) the first was brill :)

[Lechoni21]

@oracle897 They won't, my friend. for master and commander is a ( very well done) compilation of eleven books. but i wish they made a sequel about how aubrey and maturin met, it is a great story.

[larsjake]

@oracle897 Would be ABSOLUTELY AWESOME if they made a sequel to Master and Commander!!!

[kennethmk1989]

@oracle897 considering how they butchered the books to make this, I do sadly doubt. However I do hold out for a remake on tv or something closer to the books, would allow the entire series to take full shape. Steven's role as an intelligence agent was ignored, as well as Jack's behavior ashore.

[ConcreteSurfer420]

@oracle897 Russell Crowe wants to make a sequel

[S4L4DS]

@oracle897 i hope not. it was fantastic, but sequels are never as good and i dont want them to ruin it. =/

[frogjezz]

@oracle897 a sequel would suck shit, they always do.

[TheEdwolfman]

@kingolaf99 Why? The books series continue, so is not a problem...

[CASTROART]

acheron's captain was here

[bw01a]

The French captain that got away thumbs downed this video...

[morsapowa]

One justin bieber fan watched this video.

[PeakyMountainStudios]

I nearly choked on my Tea when I read this comment. I would have thought that Justin Bieber fans wouldn't have known were to even start looking for this piece of Music. I like most genres of music, but I have never heard such Twaddle as Justin Bieber. And I'm 12 and a Girl. I like Classical Music, no shame in that at all.

[5fresh]

heartwrenching

[27Cheesy91]

OK... I am assuming that someone accidentally pressed the dislike button!?

[Tkot2326]

Music worth being alive to listen to.

[TheCrazyElves]

Well, yes, Russell did learn the violin, but sadly he didn't play what you hear in the movie. Any violinist can tell you that. :( Doesn't that stink???

[xXSparky117Xx]

@TheCrazyElves

At least he learned it, another reason he is one of my favorite actors.

[BedsideGnome]

Russel Crowe actually learnt the violin for this film

[JLiqour]

Easily one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written.

[tkbywatr]

classic just classic

[MrClied]

@rachelgraham94 And this is why you should send your kids to school. No, I'm kidding. Good taste in music regardless of which one did it.

[xXSparky117Xx]

This is the part in the film when Captain Aubrey has to overcome his pride and make a huge sacrifice for his dear old friend and crew. This is definitely one of my favorite themes of the movie.

[elliotfa]

Damn Justin Bieber, he managed to dislike this Video!

[SharpWalkers]

@elliotfa Damn you, you managed to bring up that crapsack when it was absolutely not necessary..

[musicologo1able]

@elliotfa It takes all sorts...

[Tprsteve01]

tranquility...nice word

[callumevans]

For we may be half way round the world, but to us this ship is home, to us this ship is England!

[cenabelt11]

@rachelgraham94 you and me both lol

[SharpWMusic]

@rachelgraham94 It's by Corelli, not Bach.

[avatarspirit57]

I wish they'd make a sequel for this.

[TonoFonseca]

@avatarspirit57

A sequel involving the surprise actually hunting down the USS Norfolk!

[sundayliein4]

@avatarspirit57

[sundayliein4]

@avatarspirit57 There is a 20 book cannon which this excelent but stand-alone film is based upon.

[TheMrJake]

@sundayliein4

Damn fine pun if it was deliberate. If not buy a dictionary.

[sundayliein4]

@TheMrJake Happy coincidence!

[yepesporto]

please tell me you didnt put this music for me.............. of course not, you only needed to stretch your legs............

[roadsie1]

like all good things in life,the piece is short:( :(

[majav15mg]

Funny that they skipped the best part of the movement...

[MrRabbitflink]

good film, good music. no sorry, wonderful music :-)

cheers

RF

[thethousandorcs]

Lol I bet the 1 person to dislike did it as a joke to see how many comments about his or her disliking they could watch us conjure. :P

[Gwyndion500]

i lovee slave master and commander it has a wonderful soundtrack

[TheNicolock]

amazing, a beautiful piece of music. it makes me happy to be living for some reason. thumbs up!

[TheJamesDun]

Growing up, i've learned the Britain is the king of the classical music, and always will be.

[chrispalmo]

@TheJamesDun Shame it's by Arcangelo Corelli, an Italian Composer :)

[zaphr89]

@TheJamesDun HAHA, thats just ludacrious britain king of classical music? of all countries in europe britain is the last id call king of classical music. Prussia, Austria, Hannover, Poland, Russia are the ones with the greatest composers.

[RinEditionB]

@zaphr89 I second this!! England had a few ok ones but really..

[OblivionLord20011]

@zaphr89 Don't forget Germany

[zaphr89]

@OblivionLord20011 Yes of course. But i chose to say Hannover, Prussia etc because these were the names of parts of germany in the 17th-19th century.

I forgot Westphalia though ;P

[christisking2]

@zaphr89 music's greatness is based on opinion. some people like slow songs, while others like fast paced celtic folk songs, it doesn't really matter.

[zaphr89]

@christisking2 Ofcourse, im not disputing that. I was just a little bit surprised when the guy said that England was king of classical music, you have to agree with me that that is a bit of an odd statemant?

[sosome57]

@zaphr89 Er, don't forget Italy. Oh, Haendel, that great English composer, is German. Hehehe.

[benjaminburgess07]

Dude...you rock! Thanks for posting this ^_^

[andydrew500]

you can't say this is a bad song/movie. i am a 14 year old that listens to Lamb of God (one of the best metal bands), snowboards, and sometimes causes mayhem, but i still love this kind of stuff that is just calm and relaxing to the core. this movie was perfect for me and i dont need any other opinions telling me im wrong.

[1AshesToAshes1]

im not really a classi fan but this is one brootal song :D

[Sn1p3rSh4wn]

Best part is from 0:00 - 1:57

[er000ski]

the movie was good ., however this piece of music is awesome . to steal a quote from miloshrma " simply beautiful " is right on the mark. This is the best 1:57 i can give my mind .

[MilosHrma]

Aubrey stopped chasing the Acheron to save Maturin! The friendship between these opposing characters is one of the main themes of the movie, and Corelli's music is used to celebrate it. Simply beautiful.

[guanabo06]

great music from a great movie!

[CongoJack0]

agreed

[Milky111wtf]

They skip the Allegro...

[TheBratzAttack]

I liked this music best when the big faraway veiw of it watching it on dvd now

[childkillerpro]

Love it.

[popadophalis8]

Does it fuck anyone else off that this song is so short?

[Xsilord]

type into the search box "corelli christmas concerto adagio" and it'll give the longer one. It isn't much longer but there are 7 parts to it, this is just 1 or 2 parts I think.

[nykel007]

yes it does!!!.....my God!!.....i want more!!!

[TheEdrianejosefb]

@popadophalis8 even though it's short, at least it's good to listen to

[TheEdrianejosefb]

@popadophalis8 I'm just pissed about what you said about this song. It's beautiful even though it was short

[jhofmann33]

@popadophalis8 This piece is not short. The clip used in the movie is an exceprt from lengthy piece by A. Corelli.

[009009ize]

Excellent absolutely exquisite!!!!

REVIVE EUROPEAN CULTURE!!!!!!

[niclasjt]

@009009ize Europe still has culture, as far as I know.

[intercipio]

@jogocown, I believe that is the prelude when the doctor is carried onto the island, both great pieces.

[soccermonster13]

it's relaxing..very relaxing..

[Jingo711]

man, me too, seriously. probably to do with what the guy who commented first said. :)

[Ebonytears12]

This part of the movie always brings me to tears, haha.

[jogocown]

is this the part where the doctor dude is carried on the island?

[Ebonytears12]

Yes. :) It is.

[AllWasWell91]

I would hardly call the doctor a "dude."

[jogocown]

Dude=guy

the doctor was a guy

by the transitive property of equality doctor dude is correct

Are you calling him a woman?

[Westfale94]

Why not? In the book he's an opium head :D

[ConcernedCitizen1776]

Well said!

[PeakyMountainStudios]

@ConcernedCitizen1776 Indeed I agree.

[followthefleet]

To me, the music refers to moments of peace and calm, and even civilization itself...within a film about naval warfare. This interlude of quiet is a reflection of the human soul's stilling of the rancor of violence...and the necessary, but brief establishment of tranquility....within the lives of the film's main characters.

[eugenemarks08]

@followthefleet Well said. I had a friend watch this movie with me and they just didn't get it. But you did. Nice

[liecht]

@followthefleet Great comment!

[acbulgin2]

If I may, I think in the instance it was used in the film, it means something even more: Maturin is wounded, possibly dying, and Aubrey is hell-bent on taking the Acheron. There are times in the midst of war when one must consider what one is fighting to preserve and advance, the virtues of civilization: friendship, loyalty, love, learning, the arts and sciences and advancing them, grace, refinement, nobility and the cause of the common man. Aubrey looks pensively at Maturin's unmanned cello...

[builtstrong2lastlong]

@followthefleet the guys who wrote this is like....what the fuuuck is he talking about hahahajk
