@@OrigamiCL That is not "the" definition of talent. You can use that word like that, but you may will musunderstand some people. They do not use "talent" with that meaning :)
This song feels like a chain reaction, the tempo gradually increasing feels like the atoms splitting and releasing neutrons, which split more atoms, releasing more neutrons and so on. Perfect for this movie and a delight to listen to.
Played a huge part in making the movie work. More so than any Nolan film and that's saying something because that's a characteristic of every Nolan film in recent memory.
@@moshambles Yea, they really ruined it with the intensity. I legit felt like I was having a panic attack in the film and almost walked out. But if you listen to it isolated at a reasonable volume the score is pretty incredible. But that's not surprising, it's Ludwig after all, he doesn't really miss.
I thought the music was great but considering that the movie was boring as hell and 90% just people talking or shouting - the music was over the top dramatic and completely out of place
@@RealEllenDeGeneres One of the most intense and powerful moments at a singular point humanity has ever seen. The music reflects that, for better or worse.

It's the score of the year. It has to win the Oscar. The music is as important to the film as John Williams' music was for Star Wars or ET. You cannot imagine the film without it.
If the voters appreciated cinema and were tired of all these superhero movies they’d give it all the Oscar’s because Nolan single-handedly reminded everyone how a true cinematic experience must be and fealt
@@kavid8120what are you on about? I can't remember the last time a big budget superhero film won anything besides best vfx or something. For the last few years more often than not the important categories have gone to small budget indie flicks. (Which is a good thing)
I dont know if people who arent super familiar with playing and recording an instrument understand how insane this score is for live musicians. This is really a one-of-a-kind score.
I don't think I could do it. I'm not a professional musician or anything but have been playing music in one form or another for 30 years and I can't imagine how much concentration and practice this required
Even though it's more intense than interstellar, each has a different part. Interstellar makes you lost into space and this music makes you feel everything intense. Both are blessings to the ears. Lucky to hear such a beauty of music. That's why I am a fan of classical, no one can come close to it.
As an aspiring composer, I love the fact that we actually get a glimpse inside some of his DAW projects for this movie, it's so kind of him and really inspiring. Also, he gave some really great tips throughout the video. Fantastic soundtrack!
@@jaredsilvers2782 for making beats and such yes, but not really for recordings. (Latency problems, CPU Overload, can't apply more than one fade at a time) I'm using Ableton in all my videos but I know I'd record it with a different DAW
@@tom7131 I hear you. But I'm kinda at the beginning of my journey in this field, so for me personally, especially in the context of this video, saying I'm a composer sounds a bit arrogant.
I wanna see more composers give walk-throughs on their DAWs, that was excellent. Also inspiring that even large Hollywood composers just go with the default track names sometimes
You have to be able to appreciate Nolan for what could otherwise be completely overlooked: the fact that he puts 100% trust in the composer to do their work. No expectation, other than one suggestion- faith in the artist’s expression and that’s that.
Hi mate please put me on a song I can play guitar pretty well and everything else pretty badly but yano I'm cool Edit: also tell Billie KH from RUclips says wuddup.
This guy is so down to earth. If i had written such a masterpiece i would have cried my ass off explaining how i did it. Now i see why Nolan put his faith in him.
Music aside, I love how Göransson communicates his process. There’s an easy warmth and passion to his delivery. Everything is directly stated while also conveying total emotional clarity. His hand communication expresses those ideas even more clearly without being any kind of distraction. I say all this, because I really hope he does some teaching or at least some serious mentoring at some point (if he hasn’t already). He’d be the kind of music teacher you couldn’t help but learn from. Learning theory from him would be a joy. Musically speaking, this score is such an incredible achievement. It’s chilling, triumphant and even frightening at times. It inspires constant anticipation in the audience and surrounds them in wonder and awe. It gives such immense gravitas to the film. What a talent! And those violinists! Bravo!
3:57 This is a vary sad sound. It feels like the violin is struggling to breathe on its own. Inhaling and exhaling as it tries to continue to live but not realizing that those are actually its final breaths... Dude is a great producer.
It’s hard to explain but I find certain instruments you can just hear them crying - it’s like the emotion is coming out , I really heard it in this certain part of song. I found myself crying when I listened to the sound track at home after watching the film - it was just that beautiful - Ludwig is definitely getting that oscar for his music !
@@edgarleft American Prometheus and I don’t know the specific scenes but there’s usually music all in most of Nolan’s scenes so I’d say it was playing quite a few times throughout the film
You can actually see that track says "No Rosin." Rosin is a sticky wax that is applied to a violin's bow strings. With no rosin, you get that airy/low friction sound that causes it to feel like it is "struggling to breathe" as you say. I think it's brilliant.
When Ludwig says he came away from reading the script with a feeling of loneliness, I felt that. The resulting melody used as Oppenheimer's theme PERFECTLY encapsulates that feeling. "Can you hear the music" has rightfully taken its place as the highlight of the film but the more somber moments in the score are just as emotional and impressive in their own right.
Ludwig is always generous with insight, his breakdowns from Childish Gambino's Redbone to Nolan's Oppenheimer. Always shows his love for the process. Such an inspiration!
that tempo change giving mad goosebumps. so inspiring and its clear why the best are the best, they care so deeply about perfecting the intent and execution. so much to learn for aspiring musicians!
Watching DUNE I didn’t think something could surpass that Score in the next couple of years and it only took 2 for Oppenheimer and Ludwig to give us something even more spectacular (imo) I’m obsessed with this
watching this on 70mm IMAX screen with unbelievable sound system, this montage was truly a transporting experience. My senses were completely overwhelmed in the best way cinema can offer and why I love it so much.
One of the best interviews I have ever listened to. Someone who is really brilliant at what he does explaining in a step wise fashion how he created great work
I remember having chills on my spine when I first saw this scene in the cinema, the particles mixed with the music were the highlight of the whole movie for me. Hearing now how this guy created this makes it even more impressive, even more if we take into account the live musicians having to keep playing at a certain tempo while the click track marks the following tempo change. Insane!!
No, it really is not. Tempo changes are something every orchestra musician has learned to adapt to. This is happening all the time in romantic and modern music.
For some reason I'm focussed on my best listening to this soundtrack. Not only does it transport the learning experience and the emotions from the film, but it also reasonates and pushes me into performing to the best I'm capable of. This score made me understand there is so much practical value in music for everyone, it can literally be used to improve your life.
That portion of the film, both audio and visual, was so beautiful and powerful that I actually shed tears. Probably the single most memorable cinematic experience of my life.
This is the new score genius of our time. It doesn't happen often. Another reason to love to be alive: watching this guy develop his craft over the rest of my life.
Was at the premiere in London and Ludwig sat in and watched the film with us. Was surreal to watch the film for the first time with this legend in the room.
Ludwig Goransson is a new age of genius. The score in this film inspires, yet deserts us in a vast field of empty--- devoid of anything of substance or of nature. It's absolutely wonderful.
Serena also deserves an oscar, from what he states she also spent hours trying to figure out the melody and that metronome idea was genius for the violinists to play the piece
Absolute addicted to this OST. 'Groves', 'Gravity Swallows Light', 'Quantum Mechanics' are my favourites but literally every single track of the film is a masterpiece, the way he could express emotions through the musics completely correlates with the movie scenes This and Hans Zimmer's Interstellar OST are right up there in the life changing soundtracks, they really make you feel all sorts of emotions whenever you listen to them
I swear, this score matches the movie's tone so fantastically well! I've watched Oppenheimer like 6 times now, and it still baffles me how ingenious it was that Nolan made Ludwig's melancholic score nestle so seamlessly. It's not often that a movie and its score are fitted to each other with this level of fidelity.
He has to win the Oscar. No disrespect to the other nominees, but the Oppenheimer score has already become so recognisable and a bit of a classic. I've seen a ton of Oppenheimer-related RUclips shorts or Instagram reels, and the music is playing in the background. Out of the other nominees for Best Original Score, I've also seen Poor Things and Killers of the Flower Moon, but I don't really remember what their scores sounded like. The Oppenheimer one is instantly recognisable. It really captures the essence of the movie.
When i heard Can You Hear The Music in the cinema, i got shivers and i was so taken up in the music and the moment. One of the most moving pieces of music i have ever heard. Its so incredibly powerful and in combination with the absolutely gorgeous scene it is one of the most special moments in cinema.
Something about this instantly brought me to tears. So much talent and brilliance and beauty in the world of music. So sad that it’s often overlooked. His team did an amazing job in putting this together. Amazing musicians
How music overlooked? Dude u serious ?!😂😂 Music been out since forever . Of all types of music lol in film , games, etc ....even rap beats , music videos , u saying its overlooked?
What a talent! His ability to interpret the movie script, and create the musical score from that is spot on. Who knew you could turn science and math into music like this. And he is so right when he says, you get swept away in the feeling of the music rather than the musical notes. Amazing interview!
It's not just the fact that someone can fathom something like "Can You Hear the Music" in the first place-for me it’s the fact that the violin motif mentioned in the beginning is prevalent throughout the entire score. It's a beautiful coherence that matches the tone of the film quite well. Truly one of THE best scores I've heard in a long time (movie wasn't too shabby either haha)!
@@user_28373 Hi. Nice to salute you. Just in case of anyone reading our comments, I wrote that comment because there are always those who believe that Ludwig Göranson learned film score and music production from tutorials on youtube.
7:24 His description of trying to learn a difficult passage of music by steadily upping the metronome should resonate powerfully with any musician who has spent hours in the practice room. It makes me feel even more connected to his music.
As a musician the click sounds would have threw me off while playing but they are definitely a game changer😂 Such a great Soundtrack, Göransson will for sure win the Oscar!
Interviews like this really important to the music world. Specially to people like us who want to create something yet dont feel like or know what to do sometimes or feel lost may be. But these insights really gives us motivation and much needed encouragement along with different ways to create what we love.. Music..
I wonder if the editor for this video realized they accidentally used HDR clips from Oppenheimer on this video, if you’re wondering why it’s so dark whenever they show footage from the movie
As a classical musician that started writing with kontakt instruments a few years ago.. wow. Love every little detail you included in this interview. I’m gonna be sitting on this one for a while.
the thing about increased tempo that i linked with that music when i heard it was the mechanism of a cyclotron (this is a device that accelerates particles using alterations of magnetic field, "spinning" them basically). what might also be interesting is that these devices were used to study nuclear whatever (im not very knowledgable) during the atom bomb development
Mr. Goransson, I'll speak directly to you just in case of the one in a million chance you see this. My grandmother was really into orchestral music, and she loved John Williams despite not being a huge movie buff. She went to live orcastras that played his music and loved them. No need to explain what the appeal of John Williams was. Him and Hans Zimmer are both alone in that top tier, so far above anyone else who's ever done it (at least for now) This is going to be a somewhat bizarre and perhaps poorly received compliment, but it's a compliment in my mind. When I compare you to John Williams the thing I really appreciate about your music is just how much some of it would've alienated my grandmother. For example, the scene from Tenet where the fire truck pulls onto the highway is elegant in its own way, but not in a way that an 80 year old woman would likely have appreciated. But as a 30 year old I appreciate it. When I'm going for a run, listening to the Creed soundtrack, and ASAP Rocky turns up, another thing I appreciate that I know my grandmother wouldn't. No hard feelings to the older generations. I don't want them turned off for the sake of it, but to me this all signifies the fact that you're expanding the horizons of your craft. Doing new things with your art form that aren't just for the same old crowd because it's not the same old thing.
The analogy at 7:40 is brilliant. The increasing speed of the music representing a skill that is being mastered. Whenever I practice a song; I start slow like he says, but once you get the hang of it you can go full speed ahead. I just thought that was a really creative way to embody Oppenheimer since the piece is playing while Oppy is learning and running experiments in his apartment.
Thank you Ludwig. Now I blast this song on my Airpod pros during car rides and enjoy everything around me with every single second of this song. Love it!
Göransson has successfully taken an old genre--electro acoustic music--and merged it with film composition. Few others have done this to such great effect. It is great to hear this somewhat forgotten practice supporting moving images.
When i heard the music watching the movie i thought it was Zimmer, but no it is this humble guy who created this master peace... He will stand together with Williams and Zimmer as the goats
Can You Hear the Music deserves its own Oscar. Unbelievable piece of music.

Out of the other nominees for Best Original Score, I've also seen Poor Things and Killers of the Flower Moon, but I don't really remember what their scores sounded like. The Oppenheimer one is instantly recognisable. It really captures the essence of the movie.
Do yourself a favor and listen to the Poor Things score. It's quite good.

Quite.
Yes! Absolutely well deserved 🥰
6:20 because it was the exact replica of the movie “Heat” the airport scene which is Christophers favorite movie! Great job though
When i heard Can You Hear The Music in the cinema, i got shivers and i was so taken up in the music and the moment. One of the most moving pieces of music i have ever heard. Its so incredibly powerful and in combination with the absolutely gorgeous scene it is one of the most special moments in cinema.
absolutely insane how frequently the tempo shifts and yet it’s still locked in. what a brilliant use of metric modulation.
He's an absolute genius! I'm glad he's young as we'll have him for a while.
you jinxed it … rip ludwig

Give this man an oscar for the most memorable score of last 10 years
W picture

Something about this instantly brought me to tears. So much talent and brilliance and beauty in the world of music. So sad that it’s often overlooked. His team did an amazing job in putting this together. Amazing musicians
How music overlooked? Dude u serious ?!😂😂 Music been out since forever . Of all types of music lol in film , games, etc ....even rap beats , music videos , u saying its overlooked?
People have different taste in music !! Many like this type of music and orhers could careless ...
The lack of common sense is crazy
it takes the seond viewing of the movie to understand that it is music that carries the story and sets the perfect rhythm.
What a talent! His ability to interpret the movie script, and create the musical score from that is spot on. Who knew you could turn science and math into music like this. And he is so right when he says, you get swept away in the feeling of the music rather than the musical notes. Amazing interview!
I could try look at a image and create song. .. nobody can think like that . Its born given talent of the mind ! Feelings , intuition,
It's not just the fact that someone can fathom something like "Can You Hear the Music" in the first place-for me it’s the fact that the violin motif mentioned in the beginning is prevalent throughout the entire score. It's a beautiful coherence that matches the tone of the film quite well. Truly one of THE best scores I've heard in a long time (movie wasn't too shabby either haha)!
He did this with the Creed soundtrack as well. Melody played both in quiet moments and the triumphant moments
He deserves this year´s Oscar. Wonderful music score!
That change of tempo is hell. Those musicians needs a big paycheck and to be recognized.
I love how we have so many brilliant composers in our day so willing to teach the world how they work.
Thank you Ludwig!
The more I get to see Ludwig Göransson, the mesmerized I feel
Already loved Ludwigs work in Tenet and Wakanda Forever and Oppenheimer is another absolute classic! My favorite composer of all time.
The complexity of a masterful soundtrack like this is absolutely insane! Lugwig Goransson, you're an absolute LEGEND❤
He studied a lot (since he was a teen). That's why he knows what he's doing.
I mean yeah
@@user_28373 Hi. Nice to salute you.
Just in case of anyone reading our comments, I wrote that comment because there are always those who believe that Ludwig Göranson learned film score and music production from tutorials on youtube.
Sort of .not always ...im good photographer. No school . Learn the ins and out ..by analyzing. Born it.
He didn’t need to study since he was a teen. That’s not special. He just needed the practice, hours put in and having an ear for music
@@マシュードーラン He said it himself in many interviews.
This was a great watch, Ludwig is brilliant. The talent those strings players have to be able to adjust with the clicker is mind boggling.
This was so special to me, understanding all the patterns behind the piece explained by him directly!
Incredibly innovative writing and engineer as well - that pre-bar click change is genius
This man is a musical genius. On my top 3 favorite composers
7:24 His description of trying to learn a difficult passage of music by steadily upping the metronome should resonate powerfully with any musician who has spent hours in the practice room. It makes me feel even more connected to his music.
As a musician the click sounds would have threw me off while playing but they are definitely a game changer😂 Such a great Soundtrack, Göransson will for sure win the Oscar!
Interviews like this really important to the music world. Specially to people like us who want to create something yet dont feel like or know what to do sometimes or feel lost may be. But these insights really gives us motivation and much needed encouragement along with different ways to create what we love.. Music..
The Imax theater i went to has an incredible audio system. It was an amazing experience.
I wonder if the editor for this video realized they accidentally used HDR clips from Oppenheimer on this video, if you’re wondering why it’s so dark whenever they show footage from the movie
As a classical musician that started writing with kontakt instruments a few years ago.. wow. Love every little detail you included in this interview. I’m gonna be sitting on this one for a while.
This man is pure, complete and absolute genius.
6:20
This, This is the sound of goosebumps and tears in the eyes
the thing about increased tempo that i linked with that music when i heard it was the mechanism of a cyclotron (this is a device that accelerates particles using alterations of magnetic field, "spinning" them basically). what might also be interesting is that these devices were used to study nuclear whatever (im not very knowledgable) during the atom bomb development
11:30 is crazy! Professional musicains are something else
Yeah that is insane i'm playing the violin i'm not pro it's just a hobby but i could not play that, it's crazy
That’s just sample and arpeggiator plugin with midi keyboard. Not audio record.
@@moodypoodle6670 Where did you get this information from? Your ass?
@@moodypoodle6670 no, you can clearly see the track labelled "String Ensemble Live".

Oscar-winning score and deservedly so. This piece is so striking.
This will go down as one of the greatest scores in history. Ludwig is a gift to humanity.
Mr. Goransson, I'll speak directly to you just in case of the one in a million chance you see this. My grandmother was really into orchestral music, and she loved John Williams despite not being a huge movie buff. She went to live orcastras that played his music and loved them. No need to explain what the appeal of John Williams was. Him and Hans Zimmer are both alone in that top tier, so far above anyone else who's ever done it (at least for now)
This is going to be a somewhat bizarre and perhaps poorly received compliment, but it's a compliment in my mind. When I compare you to John Williams the thing I really appreciate about your music is just how much some of it would've alienated my grandmother. For example, the scene from Tenet where the fire truck pulls onto the highway is elegant in its own way, but not in a way that an 80 year old woman would likely have appreciated. But as a 30 year old I appreciate it. When I'm going for a run, listening to the Creed soundtrack, and ASAP Rocky turns up, another thing I appreciate that I know my grandmother wouldn't.
No hard feelings to the older generations. I don't want them turned off for the sake of it, but to me this all signifies the fact that you're expanding the horizons of your craft. Doing new things with your art form that aren't just for the same old crowd because it's not the same old thing.
The analogy at 7:40 is brilliant. The increasing speed of the music representing a skill that is being mastered. Whenever I practice a song; I start slow like he says, but once you get the hang of it you can go full speed ahead. I just thought that was a really creative way to embody Oppenheimer since the piece is playing while Oppy is learning and running experiments in his apartment.
Sir YOU MAINTAINED as well as UPSCALED THE LEGACY OF NOT Getting A BAD Christopher Nolan Movie Score
Thank you Ludwig. Now I blast this song on my Airpod pros during car rides and enjoy everything around me with every single second of this song. Love it!
been here since he was Childish Gambino’s in house producer and I’ll be here for the rest of the ride too. Godspeed Ludwig
Holy shit can you imagine the orchestra feeling after they played this live.?
Göransson has successfully taken an old genre--electro acoustic music--and merged it with film composition. Few others have done this to such great effect. It is great to hear this somewhat forgotten practice supporting moving images.
Nonsensical comment.
The music may genuinely be my favourite prt of the film
When i heard the music watching the movie i thought it was Zimmer, but no it is this humble guy who created this master peace... He will stand together with Williams and Zimmer as the goats
I love his work in this film. "Meeting Kitty" is an absolutely beautiful piece of music❤
