Master composer Jerry Goldsmith's highly acclaimed horror masterpiece that earned him his sole Academy Award. Copyright goes to their respective owners. This video is not for profit.
The conductor looks as though he is possessed. Such a well crafted composition and Jerry certainly unroot the extreme evil in his mind blowing composition.
I bought the soundtrack album as a teenager in the 70s before having actually seen the film. Played it in my bedroom at full blast. My parents must have thought they'd raised the spawn of the devil! The music inspired many film stories in my head later turned into scripts.
There is no other soundtrack to match this one. Jerry brought out pure evil intentions of satan when he wrote this piece. It holds sheer terror, darkness, despair, and potent cursed linguistics of his chorus line. It had to be the most influential soundtrack of its time, and Gregory Peck said that listening to such a nightmarish sound gave him goose bumps for three days.To this day no other music composer could ever match this unique tale of darkness. It the most powerful masterpiece ever created, which won an Oscar for the best original soundtrack, and well worth it. Absolute genius. Hats off to Jerry Goldsmith.
Chris Sorensen you articulated exactly what I'm thinking. especially Bout the orchestrated linguistics. chants. truly haunting yet blissfully beautiful. the wand-wielding orchestra leaders down there in the pit, holding this all together, and showing the emotion expressed through their moments, is a site to behold.
It's an outstanding soundtrack. But, musically speaking, if you listen to just some of the pieces of Penderecki (speacilly his Utrenja or The Polish Requiem), Ligeti, Varese or Xenakis, you'll get even more chills down your spine.
Only three days!!! Try 3 decades...for me!! I hear this first track and every image from where it was used in the movie floods back. A truely brilliant movie and equally brilliantly effective soundtrack. The 70s had some totally freaky, psychologically long lasting horror movies. They don't make movies like this anymore...nor are there as good soundtracks. This soundtrack is a perfect example of how music can really make a movie what it needs to be. Music effects the soul 😈
You did a Master`s class with him. What an honour. I miss the man, I was lucky enough to meet him 3 times, he was warm, caring, charming, to a fanboy who was obviously tongue tied in his company. Genius is the right word, he lives in his music, the gift that keeps on giving.
I had no idea the great Jerry Goldsmith wrote this!! What was particularly spooky was his use of Gregorian chants, using chorale singers to heighten the suspense. He really created a style that all other film composers would follow in the years to come, and this brilliant score still holds up today. My favorite of all his soundtracks, however, still has to be "Alien," his masterful use of sound and effects taken to a level never before heard in science fiction, or anywhere else. RIP.
Why don't Classical radio stations ever play this, nor Orchestras perform it? This is the only performance on record I've found. Its truly an outstanding piece of music, hell (see what I did there) Jerry Goldsmith even won an Academy Award!
@@nikreece6295 No, it's just the right amount of sinister. This music was composed for a film about the spawn of Satan. Not playing it because it's "too sinister" is missing the whole point.
Extremely its a masterpiece...!!! Its is unforgetable music score of all time..since i am an artist in horror art works here in the Philippines ..i recommend theseto all movie horror & even to the horror times of Coronavrus ...its a big fucking problem here in our world...Stay Safe To all ..Screw these Pandemic..
Director Richard Donner (Superman: The Movie) rode the razor's edge, when intending to make this a serious and believable horror/drama. It could've been a laughingstock. Jerry Goldsmith's genius score gave it a gripping and phobic reality, more potent than anyone could imagine possible!
7:35 this music played during the scene when Damien is a toddler. They are in England, strolling through green fields, very beautiful 😍 9:10 Then the music quickly changes to something chaotic and evil. Well done Jerry Goldsmith, brilliant composer 🎼🎵🎵🎵🎵
Movies nowadays don't have the good music or score to go with it . There's no imagination anymore . These old movies were great , that's why try to remake them but there never any good 👹
Fucking MASTERPIECE of a score, for a masterpiece of a film. BRILLIANT dark ART!!! Can you IMAGINE being IN this performance as an artist, or in that chorus! The sheer POWER of this piece is almost intoxicating. Beautiful recording and performance!
It's equal, maybe even better for me, personally, but Basil Pasildouris' Conan the Barbarian score is exhilarating, to say the least...I also dig Graham Revelle!!!
There are only two horror films that have well and truly scared me. Salem's Lot (1979) and The Omen (1976). Spine-tingling listening to the music live. Thanks.
Jeffrey Kaufmann I loved her. "Pardon me for speaking my mind, maam. Don't you think a four year old is too young to understand the going ons of the Episcopal way?
If that's the case, then the many groups that were annihilated by Nazi Einsatsgrupen must have been downright musical - with machine gun staccato, no less!
Oh my DAMIEN…brilliant ! That conductor…one can tell he’s top notch…so obseßed or rather poßeßed with his black diamond of an orchestration. So dramatic & theatrical 🖤❤️ it.
Extraordinary! This song is one of the greatest masterpieces I have ever heard. I still want to write something that has orchestrated this weight and this beauty.
My daughter's boyfriend is a devil son that boy is almost 30 some years old X evil it was so evil that soon as the first met him open the door up and open she didn't have to open his mouth I didn't like him since then and whole bunch of problems it's been going on for 8 years problems
One of the best of Jerry Goldsmith 1976 brilliant film for an (8 year old. ) when I was watching it in the summer school holidays. Even though it was a certificate (X)
Nothing more rewarding in life than when you go and watch and orchestra perform music like this. Watching a movie, you don't realise the hard work which goes into the score. I think every one is familiar with this one.
+walkingeaglewoman It's been sung for over 40 years though... this one is already over 5 years old and they already made many more successful concerts, the last one this October. So I guess whatever "magic" there is clearly didn't do its job pretty well :-) Besides, this one is just made up Latin.
My favorite part starts around 10:00. I like the slight pause and how the percussion meshes well with that pause. Also how the "madness" / fear is portrayed in the strings at 10:13.
if there ever was a horror film with the most incredible score....hands down nothing has since beat this...and to think Jerry Goldsmith also composed the theme to The Waltons 😁
I always wanted to see who would be brave enough to conduct, sing and play it/this piece... I still am in awe, how Jerry Goldsmith develope the music for this movie..? Bravo!! May you R.I.P. Jerry Goldsmith.....
non c'è paragone... non esiste un brano più significativo, capace, straordinariamente emotivo, intenso. Unico com'era Jerry... un mito nel suo genere. Ineguagliabile. Il senso del contorto, del sinistro, del cupo e dell'horror... fantastico come il gran finale di Omen III. Altro brano stupefacente... Bravo maestro. Straordinaria esecuzione. ottima orchestra...
The brilliance of the complex dynamic composition got exposed by the brilliance of the interpretation of the orchestra & choir led by a brlliant conductor
No words to describe this. Pure evil theme. The recent releases of omen movies and the music really makes me laugh. Jerry Goldsmith.. ❤️❤️❤️ true master !!
"Look at me Damien, it's all for you"
😱
2:11 She felt a dark presence coming from the back of the choir
Lol!
@ sarcastic execution: I wonder why she turned around?
You never know =O

She turned around cause she was curious to what was on the screen

"most powerful masterpiece ever created" Lol, calm down a bit.
one of the biggest masterpieces scored in Cinema history 👍👍👍
Amen
My theme tune
I did a master's class with Jerry in college way back when. He was a genius. Wish he were still here.
He was just the best!

Music is art, and Mr. Goldsmith was a genius.
Vangelis again.
Mr. Goldsmith was a real genius
For this masterpiiece, mostly inspired by Carl Orff.
YES...…….HE WAS A GENIUS !!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow. No wonder.. So goldsmith also did it.. Her Basi Instinct Musical score is also beautiful, yet haunting
I have this on my phone as the personalised ringtone for my boss! 😏
What a brilliant idea!!!
😄😄

Fenomenal 😈👹👺👍🔥🔥🔥

One of the greatest horror movie theme songs, from one of the greatest horror movies. Everyone here did a phenomenal job.
9:53 is by far the best part for the director's movements alone
LOL, the best Director"s performance, he looks very enthusiastic and possesed
LMFAO!!!! That needs to be a GIF.
He's really enjoying the moment.
HERMOSO ESPECIAL😈😎👹👺💪👍☝✊👌👊👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥

Because it's about Satan lol
maybe cos it sounds too sinister?...lol
@@nikreece6295 No, it's just the right amount of sinister. This music was composed for a film about the spawn of Satan. Not playing it because it's "too sinister" is missing the whole point.
@@emilyrugburn9167 If that were the case, then that's just missing the point.
Satan is Saturn father time chronos who had three sons Zeus Hades and Poseidon. I like how they say hey Zeus in this song.
I did not sleep for one week back in 1976,is a well deserved Oscar for best soundtrack.
And to think..every horror film was a distraction from the real horror that exists outside the theater awaiting mankind
I tell you this much, this Orchestra nailed this movement.....absolutely outstanding work....
Love Jerry Goldsmith RIP you were one of the best ever. They did just a great job!!!
The way I enjoy listening to this masterpiece is by lying on my bed, at night with the light off, with my headphones on.
Ditto!!! Eeeeek!!!

Lol we're children of the darkness
*No way!!*
Jerry Goldsmith was a gifted musician. What a masterpiece. And, by the way, nice performance by the orchestra and chorus. Thanks for posting.

Satan is channeling all the evil in hell through him.
@shawbros -I don't think so. It is just for show.
Nice. I really miss Jerry Goldsmith.
And this July 21, 2014 will be the 10th year anniversary of his passing.

I agree.....I agree so much.
Indeed, I can't remember any score from Star Wars The Last Jedi.
Check out some Danny Elfman sometime
Goldsmiths Only Oscar! And still, in a library of music so amazing like Goldsmiths, this decision feels perfectly justified.
I want to play this at my wedding
manystar haha lol
I do too! lol
You deserve best comment on youtube award for that one! ;-)
You will probably scare people away. LOL!
Why ?
Sorry mom, no religious chant in my funeral. i want this!!
Fucking MASTERPIECE of a score, for a masterpiece of a film. BRILLIANT dark ART!!! Can you IMAGINE being IN this performance as an artist, or in that chorus! The sheer POWER of this piece is almost intoxicating. Beautiful recording and performance!
3:23-3:33 The most beautifull dissonance i have heard in my life...GOD I LOVE IT!!
I guess you are right. pause in the time line
3:24 and see the dissonance.. Theodorrpoulos Dimitris... Thumbs up! to you... .
"The Omen Suite" is magnificent.The film itself is the happy rarity where the on screen actions match the soundtrack...
I'm pretty sure it's not that much of a rarity.
It's equal, maybe even better for me, personally, but Basil Pasildouris' Conan the Barbarian score is exhilarating, to say the least...I also dig Graham Revelle!!!
Un robo a la carrera del maestro Goldsmith,solo 1 oscar con tantisimo talento mostrado en su haber,muy grande Jerry Goldsmith.
LISTENING 2023 BRAVO!!!!!❤❤
9:03 reminds me of a delicate passage from Mahler. The transition at 9:11 is very nice. I love how the tension builds after that point.
There are only two horror films that have well and truly scared me. Salem's Lot (1979) and The Omen (1976). Spine-tingling listening to the music live. Thanks.
Oh My, Such a powerful performance, they did an excellent job. Sounds just like the original. Jerry was a genius.
The fight with the dogs in the cemetery and Jerry Goldsmith music behind it was outstanding
Absolutely stunning piece. My favorite part is starting at 10:13. The energy level there seems to be climaxing.
This master composer received a well deserved Oscar for this score. It is unmatched, except maybe for his score on Alien
The most spetacular score ever made.
Also one of the most frightening and chilling pieces of music ever composed.
Jerry Goldsmith = Sensibility, genius. There is no monotonous part in this soundtrack! It was carefully composed by him.
Exactly
The best horror film soundtrack EVER.
Amo la pasión del director, es sublime
y yo xd
Sublime. Esa es la palabra justa.
Damien se metió adentro
Satan is Saturn father time chronos who had three sons Zeus Hades and Poseidon. I like how they say hey Zeus in this song.
I started listening to this and a black dog appeared in my room.
"Pipers dream" in the middle was a like a breath of fresh air after all the pressure on the ambient since the suite began.
R. I.P. Jerry Goldsmith.
This is freaking awesome. It is Art. What a beautiful orchestra performance !
Goldsmith's music for the trilogy is fantastic - the fact that the remake didn't use any of it is flat out criminal.
my favorite part: 9:53 that conductor is living his best life! :D
"sandwiiiiich"
"baby hooooves"
"cartooons"
"Belly goood"
Baby hooves! Lol! Fantastic! Just as I was drifting off in to a dark place listening to this, I read your comment! Hahaha! Love it!

7:08, blonde violinist looks back and makes eye contact and smiles, signaling Thank God, we made it past the scary part.
@ David James: Yes, i noticed that .
Have no fear little one,I am here to protect thee!
Jeffrey Kaufmann I loved her. "Pardon me for speaking my mind, maam. Don't you think a four year old is too young to understand the going ons of the Episcopal way?
Probably the scariest part of the film for me!
She talking about my newly formed 13 year old anti christ....😻😻😻😻💙💙💙xxxxx

I agree I just discovered this
2:10 That feeling you get when you've summoned Satan.
And he calls in the plagues. Hail, dark lord of the Sith.
Welcome master.

fine classical music...
Excellent musical suite. I love it. It's a masterpiece. The musicians are amazing. Great conductor. Thumbs up.
That's a fantastic song.
Some of the choir look nervous singing this; indeed the lady chorister @ 02.11 looks seriously spooked!
yessss
Razor Steel Right! Then she looked at the others like she was wondering if they were spooked too. Lol!!!!
Is it any wonder? The Omen films were most certainly cursed. No wonder some of the orchestra look bloody nervous.
Excelente!!!!!
Asombroso!!
Todo en perfecta armonía!, gracias por compartir!
Qué buena música ... Lo más relajante para antes de dormir

whispers: That's not the conductor, look at his horns.
Beautiful.
the evilness...I love it
This is one of My most favourite pieces of music ever.
Dracapella de Lioncourt - I hate the meaning of the song because I don't pay homage to Satan but the musical composition and the voices are brilliant
My daughter's boyfriend is a devil son that boy is almost 30 some years old X evil it was so evil that soon as the first met him open the door up and open she didn't have to open his mouth I didn't like him since then and whole bunch of problems it's been going on for 8 years problems
Killer Storm is my favorite from this soundtrack. The remastered deluxe edition sounds superb!
Chilling to the bone.

Love the evil overtones in this song Ave Satani is a satanic version of a Gregorian chant I like this theme song over the Exorcist theme song
The Exorcist doesnt have a theme, unless you are referring to Mike Oldfields 'Tubular Bells' - but that plays in the film for about 10 seconds.

Ave, ave versus christus!
Ave, ave versus christus!
Ave, ave versus christus!
English translation, "Hail, hail the true Christ".
Versus means against, or anti. Not "true." "Veritas" would be true." Different word altogether.
@@suzannamoran1941 - Veritas would be 'truth'. Verum would be 'true'. In fact all the Latin is garbled.
And kudos to the orchestra and the sound technician recording this!
The most scary music ever!!! Great!
The place to which Jerry Goldsmith went as an artist is unparalleled.....he revelled in the prohibited thought....such greatness as an artist!!
Yea the main theme is scary, but i also love the love song it this. Perfect!
Absolutely stunning performance! a master raised to his full greatness by an inspired Orchestra and Conductor. I wish Jerry was still with us to.
Cómo rayos llegué aquí?!!... que imponente música que hace temblar todo tu cuerpo
Y si la imagen del fondo correspondiera a las escenas en que se usa cada pista durante la película... sería todavía más espectacular!!! Excelente.
The dark, evil energy of this music is unparalleled. Best enjoyed listening with closed eyes and when your alone
