Best version of Pride and Prejudice! Its soundtrack alone is enough to beat all.
Yes, this is true! I love this version!
Not being bias, I like the plot of this version, but in my opinion, I'm not sure if Colin Firth is suitable of being Mr Darcy, and I'm not sure if Jennifer Ehle is suitable of being Lizzy. Again, its in my own opinion, not being bias. If is Keira Knightley instead of Jennifer Ehle and Matthew Macfadyen instead of Colin Firth, this in my opinion will be perfect. But that doesn't mean that I don't like Colin Firth or Jennifer Ehle.
Bronze TheSling No wonder! Inspired by Mozart (Piano Concerto #27 1st mvt)
@@elliyahmeishar7612 Also Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 "Emperor", 3rd movement
Absolutely.
The original version was a masterpeice, and in my opinion the newer version should never have been made. They did a spectacular job with the six hour version, keeping it true to the book and the characters and portraying all aspects perfectly. Three cheers for THIS version of the movie!
Bronze the Sling the original one was pride and prejudice from around 1940s I believe XD
@@xHannaHx33 The one from 1940 has awful costumes.
Yeah the original one was the best!
@@lukebenjaminkoehler278 > Where can one find it, please??
YES.
A work of enduring art. Magnificent performances all round. I am proud to say that Jennifer Ehle replied to my letter 22 years ago praising the program and wonderful performances. She replied with a signed copy of the series book, and said how much she enjoyed making it. They were so many people playing their parts to perfection that the result was a timeless piece of art.
@Mary Blake Fletcher Through the mail.
@Mary Blake Fletcher Lol you're welcome
I can't think of a single bad performance in it. All the actors were top tier.
Bjr Kim Andrews, comment avez vous trouvé une adresse à laquelle joindre Jennifer Ehle 😳 ? Lorsque j ai vu la série pour la 1ere fois à la TV (il y a ..... Au moins 15 ans) j aurais bcp aimé pouvoir lui écrire moi aussi. C est vraiment extra qu elle aie eu la gentillesse de vous répondre. 💓💓. Quel plaisir.
That's lovely 😊
Watched and rewatched this sooo many times with my mum. Just have to say this version of Pride and Prejudice is unbeatable. The first time I watched it, I was so entranced by this opening! 💕 Elizabeth is such a role model.
I watched it with my mum too, and I shall hopefully watch it with my daughter too.
This is so close to my heart, I cannot even tell you.
I feel just as passionately about it, I'm glad I'm not the only one!
I agree:)

Very true
The story, the actors, the music, the landscapes...simply a masterpiece ❤❤❤
Yes indeed, ... timeless perfection.
I'm a simple girl. I hear that first note, I start to cry.
Lovely music--the ‘original idea’ is the 3rd movement of Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 9 (K271). The composer has adapted it very well from Mozart’s ‘original’!
i felt that on a spiritual level
Me too girl, me too
I have found my one and only. She is the sweetest human being ever and brings so much happiness and sheer joy to my life. I never thought I would ever be so lucky. She's the love of my life. I love her from the bottom of my heart.
@@Adlerjunges83 I'm glad you found her.
Simply, every time I hear this music I am overcome with joy. It is impossible to feel anything else. God bless Colin Davis. God bless Jane Austen.
*Carl Davis
I'm an American but no one can do these types of things better than the British.
You have every reason, too, to be proud. This exquisite piece, which I choose to call 'Elizabeth's Theme', was written by an American, a New Yorker - Carl Davis. Look him up in Wikipedia. I first heard this when I was recovering from a serious illness. It made all the difference to my healing just to lie in bed and listen to this often. I hope one day I shall be able to thank Carl Davis for aiding my recovery.
@cridavies29
I had no idea this was written by an American but it is just beautiful. I assumed, without checking, that it had been written by a Briton because they do all of these kinds of things so well. Congrats on your recovery! Music can indeed heal. Thanks for the info.
PCplays99 My pleasure.
PCplays99 hear hear!!
I mean the actress who played Elizabeth was actually American but put on an english accent in this film!
I remember..I REMEMBER everything! Elizabeth, running down the hill, Netherfield Ball, First proposal, Lake meeting, Second proposal and the end. Sweet, touching, romantic memories are stil in my mind and heart. Best version.! Thanks!
This is absolutely my favorite version of Pride and Prejudice and one of my favourite music. This is an amazing movie with wonderful actors and a wonderful music !!! I am a fan of this movie. I have watched it a thousand time and I am going to watch it again, it is definitely my favorite movie !
+Rikki Chardwick it's not a movie, it's a show
+drop the dead donkey Long film then, five hour long episodes? It was a television series.
I love how in the 1995 version all the characters have faces you'd see on portraits from Jane Austen's times
Best version ever(1000x better than the Kiera Knightly one). The casting in this was uncanny!
Definitely! She ruined it!!
This is tolerable I suppose, but not handsome enough to tempt me.
But I dare say sir that the tolerable ones are the most dangerous.. you may not feel the effects of calling it barely tolerable right now but one day you surely will fall in love with this...😂😂
I ser whatcha did there but even this is beautiful enough to make everything else look like trash
Love it
😂😂 nice, gosh what a great show
Behave yourself
When I was off school with severe depression, 12 years ago, my mum watching and me snuggled up to her feeling safe. Didnt know what was going on but loved it just hearing this music and being with my mama 🥰
A masterpiece soundtrack with a period fortepiano played by the great Melvyn Tan. Suitable for the best film rendition of Pride and Prejudice. The casting was nothing short of genius. Standout performances by all -- my favorites are Jennifer Ehle as Lizzie, David Bamber as Mr. Collins (in all his grotesque glory), Alison Steadman as Mrs. Bennett, Benjamin Whitrow as Mr. Bennett. Honorable mention of performances by Barbara Hunt-Leigh as Lady Catherine and Nadia Chambers as her sickly daughter.
David Bamber made me cringe just knowing his character was about to say something, he could not have played it any better.
Wonderful music, it captures the essence of this Pride and Prejudice adaptation. Those were great times back in the 90's when this was on the telly. It is still the best one by far.
opened this after a long time and just realized how happy it makes me feel..
What a lovely tune. I adore all versions or Pride and Prejudice, but this one (and its music) are especially dear to me.
This is a proper banger :D Theres only one Pride and Prejudice and its the one with Jennifer Ehle
Having seen all versions of this wonderful novel made for film or television, I firmly believe that the one that best captures the true spirit of the novel, and portrays the most credible and sympathetic characters of Elizabeth and Darcy is this 1995 television series. Superb!
I've watched this version at least a dozen times; possibly more!
I once watched the series seven times in one weekend... I'm still not sick of it! :D
This is a good theme song for this movie and time era. This is the best version because everything was very accurate and it was what I would have imagined after reading the book.
I like the fact that they used a pianoforte in this
I'm curious...How can you tell?
I‘ve played it:) The sound is just different to a modern piano
@@VocaloidWangYao A piaboforte's strings are plucked (as far as I know, don't know how though) and a piano's string are "struck". Makes a difference in sound. When I played baroque music in school I had a teacher who cpould play it and since we had one at our school she would use it to acompany me. It was great.
It’s a fortepiano that is being played and the strings are not plucked (that would be a harpsichord) but it probably has a wooden frame rather than the iron frame of a modern piano and leather rather than felt hammers. It does not have the sustaining power of the modern pianoforte but it has its own charm and is the perfect sound for the period in which Pride and Prejudice is set. Carl Davis created glorious music for this production and it is beautifully played by Melvin Tan on the fortepiano.
@@metacarpleYes, and it's straight-strung rather than cross-strung (or overstrung) like a modern Steinway: probably the biggest reason it has such a different sound. It has such a lovely and delicate midrange. Robert Levin said that pianos of this era (early 1800s) were designed to 'speak' instead of 'sing'. In fact, many of the early metal-framed pianos of the 1830s up until the 1860s still retained straight stringing; thus, they sound closer to a fortepiano than an 1890s grand piano. Brahms and many other composers utilized the instrument's midrange so much because it tended to suit the characteristics of these instruments much more.
i can't explain what this piece does to my soul!
Это моя любимая музыка любимого сериала.Эту музыку я слушаю ежедневно.Она вдохновляет,поднимает настроение.Я восхищаюсь автором, который в классической форме воплотил сюжет этого великолепного литературного произведения.Оркестровка великолепна.Браво!!!
Oh! Thanks for this beautiful music! This is, by far, the best P & P version of all time!
Whenever I feel depressed or Ill I always come back to this series. I can binge it in a day. Everytime.
I absolutely love Pride and Prejudice, as much as this song
Esther Michielsen do you know what is the name of this Song?
What a beautiful book, what a beautiful version, what a beautiful soundtrack. ❤️
I love them both!! and this music instantly makes me happy by association
I had forgotten how pretty this music is
Oh my goodness, I have such spasms and flutterings all about me...
BUT they are of pleasure not pain... thank you so very much for posting this FANTSTIc music by Carl Davies, from 'our' beloved P&P..
Starring of course Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle amongst such fabulous supporting actors... Alison Steadman, Benjamin Whitrow Julia Sawahla and all the others too... *sighs and listens enraptured once more* :0)x
THE OPENING TITLE MUSIC IS SO FITTING TO THE THEME OF THIS FILM, CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT IT!
This is absolutely the best
its an amazing series, and can be watched over and over again !
Beautiful piece of music.
Brilliant soundtrack.
Whenever one of was sick, it was Darcy time. 1995. We all love it. We still watch it to make us feel better. It always works.
wow just fantastic
always puts me in the best mood!
i always picture lizzy going for her morning walks at the start of the series with this in the background :)
I watched this version back in the 1990s. I am so glad to have found it again!
I've been very stressed lately, but somehow just hearing that opening movement soothes me...
Carl Davis' music is ebullient and joyous! What a perfect compliment to this production! Love it!!!!!
Reading the book while listening to this incredible soundtrack:]
No words for how happy I am right now
This music is so beautiful 😍 and this is the best version of pride and prejudice
A heavenly piece of art
This sounds like home. ❤
I love this version and Colin Firth as Mr Darcy ❤️
I loved the movie - the music, the costumes and the scenery were amazing! ❤
Wow! I've never heard of the full version of this. It goes on for quite a bit longer than I had thought.
The best piece of music ever created by mankind
I'm watching this in my English class and it's entertaining. I really like it. Makes the context in the book a bit easier for me to swallow.
+Alma Alvarado Yeah, and almost exactly follows the dialogue, and makes it cool. Some people find the cast not good, but I think they were just fine. Colin Firth nailed Darcy though, he was perfect.
Can’t think another Marc Darcy except Colin Firth. He is the best
This makes my heart sing! One of my favourite sounds of my generation. Just lovely and perfect
Finally able to play this on piano (in a simple way ofcourse), makes me very happy playing it ! :)
Really love Pride & Prejudice, Mr Darcy forever haha (:
beautiful, playing this on my violin
Tanya Hines hey sorry, can I ask you where did you find the piece? I'm looking for the flute's note.
That's a beautiful composition. Brings tears to my eyes everytime I listen to it
I love this music and also Colin Firth!!!
thank you!
This actually began to play on the radio as I entered Bath for a regency ball! It was the one of the most approitate pieces that could play as I drove through Bath.
i love the music and I love the film ❤😍
I love this version! How could anyone dislike this video (or music)?
oh I know! the only people who could are Mr Collins, Miss Bingley, and Catherine de Bourgh!
pride and prejudice has seen a lot of adaptations over the years, but i think this version in particular was an inspiration to really churn them out
I love this version. It is the best one.
Jane, I so love your beautiful works of literary art!! Music to my heart!!
Also with the long versions of Emma and Sense and Sensibility. Marvelous job!!!!!
This soundtrack is very good to listen to while studying. I also like this show as well.
Great book, beautiful drama, and unforgettable music.
This version is just the best! So much better than the movies! I just don't get enough, i have the dvd and i love it
Sorry--my post of a few minutes back; should have been the THIRD movement of Mozart’s 9th Piano Concerto, NOT the 2nd!
@laszappatosbonitas Most, if not all, the music was written specifically for this movie by Carl Davies. =) I adore this song... and this is BY FAR the best version of P&P ever made!
I have moved this to my RUclips Favorites. I play it every other day or as the fancy strikes.
Pretty sure the melody was based on the 2nd (slow) movement of Mozart’s Piano Concerto 9 (K271), also known as “Jeuenehomme”; just as the lovely song, ‘I don’t know how to love him’ was based on the 2nd (slow) movement of Mendelssohn’s great Violin Concerto--this violin concerto, along with those of Beethoven, Brahms & Max Bruck, generally known as ‘ The great 4 German Violin Concertos’
This is beautiful music!
The best version forever!!! You can't finish watching it!
The "2005" movie is terrible :D
both versions are good :)
Which one has Keira Knightly in it?
The 2005-movie
Lili Horvath well I like it (the 2005 movie) so each to their own. I like this one too :) especially the music :)
I couldn't agree more! that movie is terrible, between the fake romantic scene which is not in the book and the fact both Darcy and Elizabeth are totally out of character compared to their book countrerparts, I am so sorry there are young girls trhat think that is P&P!
One of the only reasons I would actually agree to a wedding ceremony. Beloved music, actors, production--- a complete experience. I will take my love for this with me to other side♥️
Favorite book , series and music of all time :)
Beautiful. Absolutely wonderful. Perfect ♡
This is Beautiful! One of my favorite songs of all time!
What a lovely music 🎶😍
This melody touches the strings of my soul ❤
such a lovely light music. ^^ like on the first day in spring, when the sun shines and the first butterflies fly around :) x
I remember listening to this everyday with my mum, as she watched it from her bedroom tv...ah, memories
So fun friendly perfect for an adventure
thank you for posting this soundtrack and each track with names!
I am so deeeeeep in lobe with this version. It is so close to the book and I just can't watch an other verion!❤
Oh my God! This music is ... is ... no, I haven't any words to describe it *-*
Glad you liked it! You all may find the rest of this wonderful soundtrack on my channel! Thanks for liking and subscribing!!
My favorites!!♥️
i love this version too =]
So lovely! One of my favorite movies! :D
Magic!
just finished watching the series because of history class project, and I have to say that this song is addictive xD
que hermosa melodía... de orgullo y prejuicio
+Helen Zumaran Hola! Sabrías por casualidad el nombre de la cancion que bailan Darcy y Elizabeth? Me parece la más bella y no la encuentro...
Last week on Strictly they honoured the BBC 100 years and though I didn't particularly like the theme personally, how was this absolute artistry missed out. Would have made for a beautiful dance. This series was my first endeavour into Austen and the whole costume-drama serial and is still perfection in my eyes. I can never not see Pam in Gavin and Stacy as not been Mrs Bennett. Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle absolutely mastered the roles of Darcey and Elizabeth. Every character seemed cast perfectly, I always loved the fact Lydia was played by the actress who played Saffron in Ab Fab, such a vastly different character.
Незабываемые любимые
" A truth universally acknowledged: You either love Colin Firth as Mr Darcy or you're wrong!" Great meme, wish I could post it here! 😅
So lovely! One of my favorite movies! :D
This music makes me feel very calm 🌿🌾💐
Потрясающе..... Прекрасный сериал, великолепные актёры, волшебная музыка
