You know, I just finished posting how Superman was the best theme he made, then I hear this and say, Oh, but wait... and then someone starts playing Star Wars, and I think, Oh, that's so amazing... and then the music from Jaws chills me, or Jurassic Park thrills me....
John Williams is a genius. There is no BEST. All his music is truly epic.
John Williams is by far the best music composer I have ever seen in my entire life. I play a trumpet and am amazing at it.I played this song It was hard as hell but so beautiful I had to practice it. I love the song It's amazing and I love the movie. Best song EVAR AND ITZ OVAR 9000 VIEWS !!!!!!!!9000 !! 90000 !!! 9000 !!!!!!!!!!!!!
See this song played live by John is one of my dreams which would never come true as i dont think he will ever play in Greece and im only 15 so i dont think so ill be able to fly to the us to see him!!!!!
The guy saying "no way" at 0:02 is a idiot. He is watching a performance of John Williams.. ofcourse he is going to hear all the major tunes what does he expect. But whatever lets not hate the flaws of humanity.
@misterbearbe He may be saying "No way" because he can't believe he is hearing his (possibly) favorite tune in a live performance with the actual composer a few meters in front of him directing the orchestra. O:
I never got the "applauding at an orchestra is a bad thing" comments. They even did it for John Williams at the Oscars in 2002. As long as the performance is not being interrupted or disturbed, who cares? And who's to say what reaction is the right one? The Japanese consider making no applause, even during the credits of a film, to be a complement..
@gundammon Indiscriminate applause is widely considered a violation of classical music concert etiquette: Applause is discouraged between movements, reserved instead for the end of the entire work. There have been a number of attempts to further restrict applause in various circumstances, e.g., court theaters in Berlin prohibit applause during the performance and before the curtain call (although elsewhere in Germany this is felt to be beyond public tastes).
@misterbearbe There's a shock...Germany telling people how they should act. This is not, by definition, "classical music." It's a soundtrack, although an exceptionally good one. You're trying to compare the etiquette and manners of a movie theater to an opera house. The latter is stiff and conventional, whereas the former is geared towards gut emotion and audience reaction; of COURSE they're going to applaud.
By the way, you won't win any fans with your endearing "loud American" comments.
@GiantMeatStalk It's probably the pops, and it's meant to be fun. It must be horrible living in a place where the freedom to express musical enjoyment is stifled by pompous and pretentious attitudes.
BTW question for the video poster: This wouldn't happen to have been in London about 10-15 years ago would it? I remember I was in London and went to a John Williams concert and this was the last of his encores. I was just wondering if this was it. If so,I was there, was a kid, and I remember that. Thanks so much for posting.

I just watched raiders of the lost arc and it still was just as amazing as the first time I saw It. The other Indiana Jones movies are great but the original is the BEST.
I take it you were born in 1973 than you attended elementary school at the age of 6 which brings us to 1979 . In that time he was composing themes for Superman(1979), SW-Empire Strikes Back(1980) and Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)! I really doubt he had time to teach elementary school. Its really hard to believe you!
Whenever I hear the music of John Williams, the world gets brighter and the colors get bolder! It feels good to know that music like this is possible. It feeds the soul in hard times. There is kindness and hope in his compositions. They are not just technical exercises to display his virtuosity. His music is imbued with Divinity. Evolving and alive. I'm grateful to have John Williams' music as a major part of my life.

From An American in Paris to Magificent 7 to Star Wars to Indiana Jones, it's all quite enjoyable.
