That soundtrack is one of the reasons I make sure to watch that movie every time it comes on tv. Just that music is worth the price of admission. Bravo!
As a child I see the film advertised in the TV Times at xmas in the 70s and asked my late great father what is this we watched it and its been my favourite war movie of all time I've even got my ring which is broadsword calling danny boy 😊
@@quinnobi42That movie is the grandaddy of all the World War II motion pictures. Not even the ones starring John Wayne were close. “Where Eagles Dare” is one of those movies that the audience has to pay close attention to the plot, because Richard Burton confused me. It is my favorite war movie due to the unique background and course of the film. You are referencing to the scene where the Gestapo Major is having drinks with the blonde woman inside a tavern, and during the conversation, she slips and opens up discrepancies in her claims of living in Düsseldorf. He silently picks up on it, suspects something, but doesn’t arrest her. That actor is still alive today, but the blonde woman died a few years after the movie originally hit theaters.
Well, at least, Ron Goodwin had the good taste and ability to take his inpiration from Wagner's opera The Walkyrie. Very apt choice for a plot involving a castle and taking place near Bavaria !
Watched this movie when it came out and sat through it twice that night. Great opening music and throughout the movie. One of the best for drummers and horns.
@@makyhsmakyhs6766 no....other way around. This film has nothing to do with OSS Oss was founded using mi6 and soe as a model. The early training was provided by the british. Same with army special forces.
You are not the only one, I watched it maybe 50 times and it's still never enough for me. Of all WW2 movies this is the only one which really captured my soul.
I remember as a child watching this movie for the first time, being mesmerized and entranced by such powerful music, it actually made me feel as if I was embarking on a great adventure, it was truly an enjoyable experience.
Very agree with, at that time I had exactly the same feeling ! What a show, we remain captivated by the film from start to finish and this extraordinary music fits perfectly 😉
Outstanding film and sound track never get bored watching this film over and over first saw this film when it came out in the cinema 1968 and is stuck with me ever since excellent
Me too! My dad took me to see this movie when I was barely a teen. I didn't know English and sonhe had to keep whispering in my ears so I can follow it.
Oh ,I remember first watching this on TV at Christmas in the 70`s and then dressing my Action Man up in winter camo over his German uniform.Great theme.
Creo que todos nos trasportamos 50 años atras , niños sentados junto a nuestro padre viendo esas montañas heladas y ese avion y oyendo esta poderosa introduccion.
I know it sounds daft, but I was just about to applaud at the end of the performance! Surely the #1 Second World War Theme closely followed by 'Band Of Brothers.'
Such a superb piece of music! The perfect accompaniment to the movie! In fact, I find that as one listens to the piece it actually serves as a synopsis of the film in musical form. It captures the entire plot sequence of the film in less than four minutes. THE best work of art Ron Goodwin ever created! ❤
When it starts I always try and find the JU52 and enveritably fail to do so, given its Luftwaffe winter Camo is so effective against the snowy backdrop!
AH! the power of the arts. In complementing the film, action, cinemetography etc. and of course, the allstar cast, this has got to be one of the most moving experiences of all time. Im torn between this film and The Good The Bad and the Ugly as life time favorite.
This one keeps reappearing on TV more times than you can shake a stick at. And I watch it every time. Used to drink with a studio Art Dept chap 40+ years ago, the studio working title was "Fistful of Hand Grenades" inevitably 🤣
It's one of those movies you have no problem watching on tv again and again when it is repeated which it often is especially for scenes like the one with major wilma
Its an Autumn sunday afternoon. Its cold, raining and windy. You have the sunday dinner in the oven. What more do you need them to watch this classic. Perfect Sunday afternoon film. Gives you goosebumps everytime you hear that intro drumbeat.
i saw the Movie as a kid.Have it on DVD.And i loved the Soundtrack from the 1. Note.Maybe i do a Mockup one day.I didnt know this was ever played in real.Woooow .....this perorming.Just love it
GOOSEBUMPS, my old man (RIP) LOVED It and as a result mother cant hear/watch, she says she was submitted for 50+ years to this JEWL of a Movie/Soundtrack
Working in the vacation on its first release as an assistant cinema manager.....assembling the ice cream usherettes in the interval at Schloss Adler ready to go into action just as the light came up ! Phew !
Recuerdo imborrable de aquellas sesiones de cine barrio organizadas por los vecinos, en el viejo teatrillo del antiguo casino de antes de la guerra, en 16 milímetros de alquiler. Estaban todas las familias y amigos, con los niños (que éramos nosotros) viendo la película en un ambiente irrepetible. Distracción y emoción aseguradas.
Кино
That soundtrack is one of the reasons I make sure to watch that movie every time it comes on tv. Just that music is worth the price of admission. Bravo!
Absolutely correct
In my opinion that film was Richard Burton's own James Bond movie. The scene around the table with the notebooks was pure unadulterated class.
A soundtrack so powerful it could invade other soundtracks in neighboring cinemas!
Love that
Powerful image😂
It raises the hair on the back of your neck and makes it stand STRAIGHT UP.
Yes, it did !
INDEED... GREETINGS FROM VENEZUELA
I never get tired of this theme
NOPE...... GREAT theme for the BEST MOVIE EVER MADE.
As a child I see the film advertised in the TV Times at xmas in the 70s and asked my late great father what is this we watched it and its been my favourite war movie of all time
I've even got my ring which is broadsword calling danny boy 😊
My favourite film of all time seen it over 200 times my late father took me in 1969 when the film came out
Yo la Vi por allá 1975,1976 el sonido es espectacular.saludos desde ilo- Perú.
And that is the reason Col. Turner, we removed the Firing Pin from your weapon before the mission began
You are pointing at me aren't you sir?
Zsit DOWN Kernal!!!
hahahaha lol
Do I have an alternative?
*started
So powerful music I can’t even remember which side of the square the cathedral is in Düsseldorf.
I have a feeling even fans of the film might have a hard time remembering that reference.
@@quinnobi42 it was on the other side

"I sink it vos on zer UZZER side off za Skvare?!".
When actually standing in the square.
I think it's the best military soundtrack in the globe
Mohsen Alkaabi : Naaah! 633 Squadron blows this out of the water, Ippolitov Ivanov’s Georgian War March is better too
I totally agree watched the film as a child in the 70s absolute classic
Well, at least, Ron Goodwin had the good taste and ability to take his inpiration from Wagner's opera The Walkyrie. Very apt choice for a plot involving a castle and taking place near Bavaria !
Watched this movie when it came out and sat through it twice that night. Great opening music and throughout the movie. One of the best for drummers and horns.
Ron Goodwin's masterclass opening theme tells you about what the OSS team is up against even before the movie opens up.Such riveting music.
Soe team.......not an American team. Mi6 and soe
@@mookrage
Ya but they are previously trained by the Americans !
@@makyhsmakyhs6766 no....other way around. This film has nothing to do with OSS
Oss was founded using mi6 and soe as a model. The early training was provided by the british. Same with army special forces.
Probably one of the most iconic intros ever
Sends shivvers down my spine when I hear the beginning of this song. Where Eagles Dare is my favourite film. Excellent music.
BEST DAMN MOVIE EVER MADE. That is NOT debatable either !!
You are not the only one, I watched it maybe 50 times and it's still never enough for me. Of all WW2 movies this is the only one which really captured my soul.
@@sleepytickle
the longest day and saving private rayan are the best !
Ron Goodwin was one of the greatest film score composers.
The most exact remake of this theme I've ever heard. Hair literally standing up at my neck.!
I remember as a child watching this movie for the first time, being mesmerized and entranced by such powerful music, it actually made me feel as if I was embarking on a great adventure, it was truly an enjoyable experience.
Broadsword calling Danny Boy, Broadsword calling Danny Boy...
very powerful military music, air to air combat would fit this too. brits and germans in air to air combat.
Very agree with, at that time I had exactly the same feeling ! What a show, we remain captivated by the film from start to finish and this extraordinary music fits perfectly 😉
Makes the Hair on the back of your neck stand STRAIGHT UP don't it!!!!
I'm a child of the 80s and I felt the same there Nothing that can compare to these classics even up to today
Outstanding film and sound track never get bored watching this film over and over first saw this film when it came out in the cinema 1968 and is stuck with me ever since excellent
BEST DAMN MOVIE EVER MADE
I love this version. The echo in the hall gives the drums an extra punch. A grand and majestic piece of music.
"Broadsword calling Danny Boy", love the movie and rhe music
We have it! We have it all! Effecting exit within the hour! Father Mcree here all sins forgiven!
Everytime I hear this I remember my dad and cry. Love it
Me too! My dad took me to see this movie when I was barely a teen. I didn't know English and sonhe had to keep whispering in my ears so I can follow it.
Excellent Score, The Royal Philharmonic.. Marvelous. Paul Bateman conducted with the Passion the Score Demands.. Royal Albert Hall. Great Harmonics .
Bold. Riveting. Unforgettable. And an electrifying performance from the RPO & Mr. Bateman. Bravo!
Absolutely brilliant. A work of art. Thank you and God save the King.
Yes Brilliant found it yesterday. Came back for another dose 💪🇦🇺👌
Still gives me goosebumps, Broadsword!
The purest form of talent!😮
“Broad sword calling Danny boy… come in Danny boy!”
I love this theme, it's soo electrifying
YEP... The MOVIE wasn't bad either!!!
The movie was a riveting action thriller made more so by Goodwins superb score..... Brilliant
Oh ,I remember first watching this on TV at Christmas in the 70`s and then dressing my Action Man up in winter camo over his German uniform.Great theme.
Magnificent! Sends chills down the spine!
Mesmerizing composition! I could feel the trumpets and the double bass in my chest in the theatre as a 10yo....
My first memories of an English movie and 26 years later this music still gives me goosebumps.
Great music...great movie. Wonderful memory of seeing it, again and again.
Oscar Worthy Music - Could the owners double the Musicians remuneration 😊 forever!
Favorite movie of my late brother. Growing up … on snow days, as student this was the go to movie…great memories, awesome movie and music!
"Broadsword calling Danny Boy."
All sins forgiven.
Do you have it; I have it all !
@@rockbright2391 Current now as current then. Durham has it all. I think he is just enjoying making them squirm one or two at a time.
Wonderful theme for an awesome movie!!
Creo que todos nos trasportamos 50 años atras , niños sentados junto a nuestro padre viendo esas montañas heladas y ese avion y oyendo esta poderosa introduccion.
Majestic, don't make music/films like this anymore!!
I think "Where Eagles Dare" was the inspiration for the video game "Castle Wolfenstein" by ID Software. An excellent game from 22 years ago!
One of my favorite movies and theme songs
I know it sounds daft, but I was just about to applaud at the end of the performance! Surely the #1 Second World War Theme closely followed by 'Band Of Brothers.'
I never forget the moment when Clint Eastwood held the whole hallway with double mp40’s against squad of German soldiers.
I was amazed that their MP-40’s never seemed to run out of ammo or need mag changes. Magical.
Ah love me some Ron Goodman! Next to John Barry my favorite Brit composer! Nice to hear what a real orchestra can do with a great theme!
Goodwin.
Is it any wonder we used to rule a quarter of the world if this is the music we produce!!!!
Trop génial le film
Ainsi que la bande annonce
Je vais l'essayer comme sonnerie sur mon téléphone
@@joelrenegoudz3864 Assurez-vous qu'il n'y a pas d'Allemands dans les parages quand votre téléphone sonne mon ami
Come back to listen to it again, just wonderful, one of the best film themes and films ever!!
Such a superb piece of music! The perfect accompaniment to the movie! In fact, I find that as one listens to the piece it actually serves as a synopsis of the film in musical form.

Found it by mistake yesterday came back for another dose 💪🇦🇺👌
Chills from 1968. Great film.
It must be awesome as a percussionist to start that piece in a quiet auditorium.
Chills and neck hairs standing up.
Powerfull music. Would like to see the Danish National Orchestra do their vision of it.
When it starts I always try and find the JU52 and enveritably fail to do so, given its Luftwaffe winter Camo is so effective against the snowy backdrop!
Great film score.

*'Broadsword caling...Danny Boy'.....are you receiving me?*
This is deviously clever stuff from Ron.
Best recording on the web!
Just a beautiful, beautiful composition. Reminds me so much of J S Bāch .
I first heard this in the Thief in the Night movie series about the Apocalypse. Then later saw Where Eagles Dare.
It's one of those movies you have no problem watching on tv again and again when it is repeated which it often is especially for scenes like the one with major wilma
The drumming" represents machine gun fire"
I always thought that too
Great. Nice to see and hear someone playing it. Thanks.
もうなんか痺れる程にカッコイイですねwww😁✌🪖。
Its an Autumn sunday afternoon. Its cold, raining and windy. You have the sunday dinner in the oven. What more do you need them to watch this classic. Perfect Sunday afternoon film. Gives you goosebumps everytime you hear that intro drumbeat.
Either this or Live and Let Die.
Then you get the stupid FYI Daily nonsense interrupting it.
The location cinematography, theme music, story telling & fantastic acting roles conspired together & made this film a classic for the ages.
I think if I heard this live like this I’d wet my friggin pants with excitement 😂
I wish I was at this concert. Brilliant track most be fantastic with full orchestra.
Best sounding poor recording I’ve ever heard. Glad we have it. Love this track and movie!
“You’re entitled to nothing!” Try that today.
Wow! Ron Goodwin was inspired that day. Love this theme and great job by RPO.
This is an undiscovered jewel .
Play this in your mind before you jump into a hot LZ
Quand les aigles attaquent.
J'adore.
1968 great move Where Eagles Dare song
My favorite soundtrack
i saw the Movie as a kid.Have it on DVD.And i loved the Soundtrack from the 1. Note.Maybe i do a Mockup one day.I didnt know this was ever played in real.Woooow .....this perorming.Just love it
A film theme that bears repeated listening...from that opening rhythmic drum through to its brass fortissimo
finale. Top stuff, old boy!!
I was sat next to the person filming this ;) Watching it takes me back to that amazing evening haha :)
KJBeliever1993 nice one
Awesome!
Awesome performance!

Our hairs stand on end ❗
“Broad Sword calling Danny Boy!”
FANTASTIC...
Amazing💪
GOOSEBUMPS, my old man (RIP) LOVED It and as a result mother cant hear/watch, she says she was submitted for 50+ years to this JEWL of a Movie/Soundtrack
Why there was no where eagles dare part 2 is a crime. Would have loved to watch that.
Simply classic!
Great film
Right up there with the late Enrico Morricone -Spaghetti Westerns composer extraordinaire!
This composer was a genius. Pour audio quality.
Dang! Wish he wrote a whole symphony based on this.
Love to stay for coffee, but I have a Destiny to fulfill.
❤wow my favourat
