Medley of themes by John Williams
United States Marine Band, "The President's Own"
Leonard Slatkin, conductor
This is the most breath taking performance. The US Marine band is spectacular playing at a pinnacle event the greatest music of our time.
totally agree with you, outstanding performance.
I never realized how important and prominent his music was to my childhood. I probably saw every movie he did with Spielberg growing up and his music played through my head and still does today, daily
Welp, that was my childhood right there.
I was fortunate enough to see the Maestro conduct live in 1993. 30+ years and it's still one of the strongest memories I've got.
You know the music is iconic when you have no trouble at all to name the movies the themes are from.
Bring back memories and bravo to the orchestra/conductor. Happy Birthday to John Williams.
Magnificent!
🌹🌹🌹❤🎂
Brilliant. 😊
Well, may be since you can't summarize the work of his lifetime in 5 Minutes.. some pieces fall apart. When you listen to the 6 Star Wars Scores, there are so many great themes, which will last forever. The Imperial March, The Duell of the Fates, Jodas Theme, The Asteroid Field, The Flagg Parade and so on. Then we have Schindlers List, Memories of a Geisha, The Lost world, Hook, A.I., Seven Years in Tibet and so on.. As Steven Spielberg said: "In all his pieces is some kind of genius."
This is magic in pure form!
Feb.8: (85) Happy birthday Composer-conductor John Williams, Academy Award winner. Thank you and God bless. Thanks for the upload, Hector JW2007. Blessings
The percussionist playing snare during "Superman" looks like he's having the time of his life. But John Williams is a great composer, so he'd better be. :)
at 3:04 John looks like he's saying in his head, "The usual..."

This is a beautiful sound God how I wish I ply this way Dick Buck
2:46 is where it REALLY starts to get good!!
No one told me that Boris Johnson was a conductor before he ran for office in the UK...
Is there ANY reason why they looped the soud of the applause at the end?
Whatever happend to Jurrasic Park... I'll never know.. :
I wonder if John Williams ever gets bored hearing his own music.
Can he even watch any of his movies?
What are the name of the pieces played in this medley?
Wow
the jaws theme should of been longer
is like hearing a 5.1 track trough a pair of cheap mono headphones....
what happened to jaws?????
the conductor is Leonard Slatkin, no ?
I'm pretty sure is Boris Johnson...
😳😆😆😆
Representatives of the US empire play the Star Wars empire theme. How fitting.
damn you ended imperialism. thanks man
I practice 50 t0 60 minuets a day & that's about 90 minutes a day--not enough . Need to do at least twice as much to be functional . Wish I could live my life over again ! Dick Buck
I remember Leonard's father Felix, and the " Fantastic Strings "........ sadly lacking in this orchestra are any sort of stringed instrument, poor John must be cringing inside! Nice orchestra but the Pops it ain't!
+Tinsby No shit, sherlock. They clearly announced it was the President's Own. No one said it was an orchestra.
Wretched performance. Lots of wrong notes, sloppy entrances. I imagine JTW would not be amused.
+Kinopanorama Widescreen Preservation Association Incorporated You must have really slowed the video down and studied parts that go by so fast that we can't tell the music isn't computer-generated.
I have the full orchestral score, so am able to follow the performance.
Would like some examples please!! Your orchestral scores are not what’s being played here. This is a transcription for band and a good one at that! I have perfect pitch and for the life of me I couldn’t hear 1 if any mistakes!
