I had a friend as a teen. He had this album and I kept asking to borrow it. This went for such a long time and then he gave it to me as a gift. I'm 73 now and think of David every time I come across this music. So beautiful.
Couldn't help but notice we are the same age and grew up enjoying the same beautiful music. I still have my original soundtrack LP of this film as well as a cd soundtrack I got much later which included more selections of this film music!
GREAT AND IMORTAL ALFRED NEWMAN !!! 🖒💚😊
Alfred Newman ...the Legend of Hollywood and of All Musical Genre.....it all started with his phenomenal masterpiece...."The Egyptian" I stand proud to have experienced this exceptional movie..... transported back then when civilizations breathed pure, new life.
Contemplative and very beautiful
Beautiful music for an Awesome Man, JESUS.
Beautiful heavenly soundtracks. They touch my heart to the core and make me cry. 🩷✝️
Max Von Sydow (1929-2020). Rest in Peace.
A very beautiful soundtrack the right name for greatest story ever told
When my 2nd cousin, John Steven Lasher, interviewed Alfred Newman in 1965 he recalled Newman saying "it's my music, but it's not my score ...".
I know this is in heaven..it’s so beautiful,
A great movie and a great musical score. I cry when I hear the music, it makes me know that Jesus Christ is the Redemer of the world and ON ONE GOES TO THE FATHER EXCEPT THROUGH JESUS.
Powerful and beautiful, heart touching music.
Heavenly and divinely inspired
You're quite correct Stefan. Xx
Father in heaven, thank you for forever this will be, the greatest story ever told, forever and ever, hallelujah indeed. 🙏 Amen 🙏 #77 #truly a masterpiece.
And it all starts with you.. 🙏🏼👁
The Greatest Story Ever Told began my collection of film scores when I first heard it in 1965 at the age of 11. This film's music will always be for me the Holy of the Holies of biblical film scores. Alfred Newman and Miklos Rozsa were the Deans of film music composition.
At nine years old, I saw this movie in 1965 in Cinerama and was absolutely mesmerized by the movie and this fantastic soundtrack...
Remember crying (sobbing) when I watched this movie...the score enhanced the scenes...
A hauntingly beautiful score for a magnificent film, one of cinematic elegance and spiritual depth. And at the center is Max Von Sydow, with the finest portrayal of Jesus ever!
I cry every time, it touches my very soul with the goodness of our dear Lord x
It's true God does speak to millions of people. Just obey him without doubting
This has and always will be one of my all time favourite soundtrack/music scores. Loved it since I first saw the film many, many years ago as a child. There is none better!
Came here searching for the soundtrack of The Greatest History Never Told documentary. Found this. I am not disappointed.
/pol/ is a christian board
yes.
Give thanks to the Lord for he is good. His love endures forever.
Such a beautiful piece of music , Alfred Newman out did himself with this , it’s so compelling, ❤ you can’t get such quality of music nowadays , I ordered this off of Amazon cause I love it , ( in vinyl of course )
hauntingly beautiful.
Did. U know god won't listen to your prayers no matter u scream and yell and cry or pay u attention,unless u have faith soleiy,then watch faith and honor brings access
@@georgegreenberg5267 God always listens to your prayers regardless. Go away, heretic.
What can I say that hasn’t been sed l was touching to my soul I was was seven the first time I saw the movie and heard that beautiful score
Excellent job on capturing the stunning music soundtrack of Alfred Newman's score and beautiful choral direction of Ken Darby. The only track I wish was included was 'Into Thy Hands.' Otherwise wonderful job. Thank you Fred!
EMOTIVA PARTITURA DE ALFRED NEWMAN. GRACIAS FRED. MUY BUENO.
For those of you that are in the Spirit. This movie carries a message. You know his voice. I say only this to you, It is later than you think. Put God First in All Things. Jeremiah 29:13 King James Version (KJV)
13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
The hardest part of the entire score was listening to LIBERA ME as Jesus/Max struggled to carry the cross through the Jerusalem street to Golgotha, and the Romans ordered Sydney Poitiers as Simon of Cyrene to help Jesus carry His cross. It is, to me, the single most phenomenally immeasurably heart-rendering music I have ever heard, always brings tears. Lynn Dawson sang that piece at Princess Diana's funeral. No words to describe the fathomless depth of emotion. Love you, Fred, thank you deeply and God bless you.----US CG mom
Same with me.
OMG YES.
I first saw GSET shortly after it opened in NYC. I will never forget the chills I had from hearing the Libera Me when Jesus was carrying the cross. Shortly thereafter I discovered the Verdi Requiem and it conjured up that image. And it was incredibly moving at Princess Dianas funeral. When Ailyn Perez sang it at the Met for the 20 year commemoration of 9/11 she was clearly fighting back tears. A truly divinely inspired piece, all the more remarkable considering Verdi was not religious.
Soundtrack Fred, I just discovered you last week. This is one of my favourites. I grew up on these movies, this glorious music, these earth-bound heavenly gifted composers. Thank you deeply. God bless you.
+FriendofRamblinJack Exactly earth-bound heavenly gifted composers..this is so divine

Newman links what was to be his final religious score with themeatic motifs from his previous music for similar subjects: 'The Hunchback Of Notre Dame', 'The Song Of Bernadette', and 'The Robe', particularly the opening of the piece, which can be heard in all these scores. There is such a sense of loss and loneliness in this most beautiful score by one of the true masters of film composition. I would love to see a version of 'The Greaest Story Ever Told' with the full Newman score reinstated.
George Stevens butchered Newman's original score, replacing many of the cues with music Newman had previously composed for "The Robe" and "Hunchback of Notre Dame'. Newman has famously remarked, 'It's my music, but not my score'.
@@josephcarlbreil5380 In Hollywood, Holyland, Ken Darby, Alfred Newman's choral arranger, argued that Stevens had let other parties mislead him into making fatal errors in making Story. However, if Darby is right, Stevens had to have been in the grips of artistic senility. Artistic senility is nowhere near as dramatic as senile dementia; however, a director whose touch was formerly unerring, such as the Stevens of A Place in the Sun (1951); Shane (1953); and Giant (1956) will lose his touch.
Soundtrack Fred; thank you for sharing your talent and music with all of us. Hugo Friedhofer.?
Hello Steven!
Hugo Friedhofer is an exellent idea. Maybe one video will be added over the next weeks ;-)
07:25!!! Magnificent
Touched for our justice fighters protected by Christ God all mighty may they all be guided and sheilded against hatred as our Christ was..
the beautiful blue gaze of max von sydow as Jesus.
Epic!
Does George Stevens' original 260 minute cut of The Greatest Story Ever Told still exist?
SÃO MÚSICAS COMO ESSAS QUE ELEVAM A ALMA .
Just amazingly beautiful music.
the way that divine music engages with Haendel Alléluia in the film should have been put in extenso here because it is MORE than OVERWHEMING, it transports you in a really transcendental and unique way just appropriately put together in celestial harmony; never heard Something like that anywhere else! let alone the Samuel Barber "touch" all along...
From St John Chapter 10 verses 17 and 18 " Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that i might take it again.
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. this commandment have I recieved of my Father".
Christ took upon himself the sins and the illness' of every person that ever lived or ever would live on the earth, but no matter how much pain he was in, it could'nt kill him. And when he had suffered for every one of us, he then voluntarily gave up his life. Everything that needs to be done to enable us to return to our father in heaven has already been performed. All we have to do is repent and be baptised by someone who has the authority to perform it; receive the gift of the Holy Ghost by that same authority and endure to the end, by striving to keep the commandments, and then when we stumble, repent and continue to pick our selves up.
Alfred Newman à écrit là une œuvre à la fois puissante et à la 'couleur biblique'. C'est en quelque sorte les 'Sept Paroles du Christ' de Joseph Haydn avec encore plus de puissance instrumentale et chorale.

.. . Love you forever
Sorry, not the greatest film music ever composed, but still beautiful and heartfelt as a classical tone poem. Newman is a true genius!
Sublime
HMMMMMM!!!HALLEUJAH!!! INDEED!!GREAT STUFF!!MOVIE WAS SO VERY SLOW!!THE MUSIC SUPERB!!FROM(U.K.).
1:39 가슴을 울리는 아름다운 선율
In part of the soundtrack I hear elements or influences of Samuel Barber's Adagio for strings #15.
I thought the same thing
@@markamon1856 Indeed, I think of Platoon.
I wish this was kept in the movie instead!
Although my favourite is Robert Powell as Jesus Christ..however Max Von Sydow was also great

Excellent score by famous composer. Sadly, the last theme in this video wasn't used in the movie, or was it?
This score is beautiful, reverent, & fitting. I just think the film itself badly misfired in the casting of Jesus, but I also know what a difficult role it is. the film is over-all, a noble attempt. ----------WolfSky9
Agreed! Von Sydow, although a very fine actor, was just too remote as Jesus. Best scene was raising of Lazarus, the look on Van Heflin's face was unbelievably moving. Best Jesus ever was Robert Powell.
You must have faith alone for god. To heed u
good day fred.. would like to ask for some help on how to use this soundtrack in our play

El Prelude de The Robe-Newman; el maestro Alfred Newman lo repite en su
The Greatest Story Ever Told-Newman Prelude, y en los soundtracks donde se repita misma partitura. en las dos significa lo mismo Cristo y el mundo Romano inmersos. Feliz y Prospero Año 2017.
Where can I buy the soundtrack the greatest story of a toll
This film got an undeservedly bad press. Yes, the cavalcade of stars was a bit much, but what I really admired about the production was that it eschewed spectacle for spectacle’s sake, so common among epic films of that era. There is a remoteness, even an other worldliness, about the film, which somehow works, set against the stark beauty of Utah. Newman’s score is moving and sad, doing without the screaming ecstatic choruses, and the Libera Me from Verdi’s Requiem is a touch of genius.
I dont remember any choral Hosanna in the film and has that been added in imitation of the other epic King of Kings?
Reading the comments below I’ll have to watch it again because I’ve always found it to be The Most Depressing Story Ever Told, total contrast to Ben Hur if you really want to experience being moved to tears.
Música conhecesse a árvore pelo seu fruto.
Is it just me, or are there some notes that sound vaguely reminiscent of Lord of the Rings? Obviously this score was written first, so... weird!
Do you have the Overture?
There is no Overture for this film. The music begins less than 30-seconds before the visuals appear.
6:05
Can anybody tell me why Christ in this film is called Inspirational and why that seemed to affect exactly how he was portrayed by Max von Sydow.? Is the film really in keeping with the book by Fulton Oursler?
I can only suggest its more than likely to be based upon the greatest story ever written... the Bible. Xx 🙏🏼

Did u know all the 12 disciplines. Of Christ including Christ were Jewish Christ formed a tight bond with the Jews and specifically established them as his flock mankind twisted his intentions around and wound up killing one another
El problema con esta película clásica es que no es nada fiel a los evangelios. Mezclan indiscriminadamente textos de los cuatro evangelios de una manera impresionante. Al parecer no tuvieron asesoría teológica. Creo que por esta razón, la película se enreda demasiado, además que se vuelve larga y aburrida. Lástima porque tenía un excelente casting y un buen director. El actor que representó a Jesús, aunque fue un gran actor en su momento, se le ve demasiado distante y frío. Destaco la banda sonora que sí es maravillosa. Para mí, sin duda la mejor producción sobre la vida de Cristo es Jesús de Nazaret de Franco Zeffirelli.
