I just found out that this is his daughter singing along side him, that just adds a whole new dimension to this, given the "Circle of Life". Masterpiece.
From a political refugee exiled by the racist apartheid regime of South Africa and a struggling student in Los Angeles Lebo M has come a very long way. Here he is seen as the lead singer who composed the lyrical content for the original soundtrack of the lion king movie performed here in a spectacular fashion. What a magnificent accomplishment from such humble beginnings. Happy and proud of you my brother.
@@nadyapetr98 Thanks, we attended school together at Los Angeles City College, and we were both active student members of the Black student union on campus. He is a lifelong friend.
The guy playing the triangle looks like he is thinking: People said I will not accomplish anything playing the triangle and now look at me I’m in the circle of life !
Anugreh Kaul Hans Zimmer is second best imo. There is nobody that has as many recognizable classic scores than John Williams, imo Williams is this century’s Beethoven or Mozart. But Hans is legendary as well.
You can see in the eyes of the musicians, the joy and emotion, the tears that this music provokes, the African beat comes to us all, we all carry Africa in our hearts 💜
Alex Gut-mann no u don’t don’t even lie u don’t even understand what Africa is going through and all those African Americans or Africans Britons r going through unless ur African u don’t hv it in ur heart 🙄🙄
4:56,I like how he just casually walks down, and yells out the most famous African words ever, in the exact same tone and emotion as decades ago. Fucking amazing.
@Johnny Eclectic maybe I should tell you that that song was supposed to be in the original but was scrapped then put in the broadway all years before the sequel was released so the sequel's just using material that was already there lmao, hans zimmer, elton john and lebo m. were all the ones responsible for it
The lion king was the best movie ever and the songs will always be apart of our lives as long as we live but now we have to pass this down to our children so they will know about the original lion king
Lebo M's daughter is the voice that should be used to reunite the world and bring peace to this world! AMAZING! That intro of her coming in should be the call for reunification
@@mikieyc81 Thank you, we are. I live in Luderitz, Namibia and so far our town has been spared the worst. Since our first reported case in Namibia, Luderitz itself has reported about 10 cases. Our national cases are about 10,200 so far. Economically though, we've been hit hard. Namibia, especially Luderitz depends on tourism for a large part of our income. With all the borders being closed, that hit us hard. I work in a private school, and before the border shutdown, in the Felsenkirche or Church on the Rock. It's one of our most famous historical buildings in our town. It was built in 1912 and has some of the most beautiful stained glass windows. all still from 1912. In fact, at least 99% of the church is still from 1912. In 2010 and 2011 we had to do some renovations on the building, mostly giving it a new paint job, replaced the copper sheeting on the church bell tower since some of the copper plates were blown of by the wind, and replaced the old outside windows with new ones. It's like this. you have the stained glass windows on the inside, then a open space behind them, then a second window on the outside protecting the stained windows on the inside. We replaced the outside ones with new shatterproof ones to give the inner ones better protection. The wind here can go up to 100 kilometers per hour this time of year. Between August and February is our windy season. This wind, plus the cold ocean water, plus the nutrient rich water that's drawn in from the deep ocean bottom gives Luderitz the best fish and oysters in the country.
for most people they can't pinpoint exactly what it is about the lion king that makes it so powerful and emotional because there's a number of things which it so special. The story, the message, the animation, rollercoaster of emotion. But I truly beleive that the scores by Hans Zimmer(and lebo) is what makes the lion king so perfect. the man is a prophet the music gives me the chills even 20 years after I first watched it.
I took my two young sons to see the movie when it came out, I got teary eyed at the opening scene, basically had only just sat down, when we arrived home the phone rang and it was my sister telling me my mum had passed away .....The Lion King has a special place in my heart....it's the circle of life..
I know that comment thread is old, but I agree with the soundtrack part. I like the story well enough and the animation is top notch, but the soundtrack is what really keeps me hooked to the screen. I haven't rewatched The Lion King that much to be honest, but I've lost count of how many times I've replayed the score. Hans Zimmer and Lebo M. are truly some of the best, and their combined work in The Lion King simply rules, pun intended.
@@anneaxling Lolwhat. South Africa is not a melting pot. It's literally becoming less and less diverse with each year, give it 50 years and SA will be a black ethnostate.
i was thankfully live there, i saved the whole year for the ticket and went alone and i can assure you i was crying the whole concert through because of how magnificent it was. I wish for everyone to experience something like this!!
@@Kostanovi these instruments are originally from African tribes, arabs tribes, and asia. And was made out of different materials before Europeans builds their own based on the knowledge acquired.
Kostanovi 007 and I say u so sick!!!!u think africa is a forest??how the hell do we end up in universities??u are a fool,its true when they say u guys are fools!!!
Throw the whole audience away!!!! That deserved a standing ovation! That performance took my breathe a way literally, I was crying and hyperventilating !!!!
@@shilohquinn9732 well I saw the live action remake of Disney's the lion king and i love it i wish from rotten tomatoes it would go higher by critics here is the review that u should check out ruclips.net/video/eoJRqZhz9tE/видео.html
I realize that this a performance, with a bunch of older people in the audience. I grew up with and love The Lion King, man if i was there i would be standing up like it was in church. This is to good to sit done to.
I agree with you whole heartedly about wanting to stand etc...its a symphony, so the ettiqute is to be still, attentive and respectful. Many of us tap feet, grip arm rests, and gently move our heads....
The emotion on the faces of the musicians reflect what's happening on that stage. Hearing those iconic African voices and rhythms take center stage at the Wiener Konzerthaus is profoundly moving.
2:04 the violinist on the left is so full of joy! Her smile is infectious. I performed for 20 years and this kind of experience happened to me twice. It is so rare! These musicians and singers are receiving the music and they are all in tune with one another. Its such a magical experience.
I highly enjoyed seeing all the musicians’ smiling faces in the orchestra during the performance. I always see them looking very stoic when playing (which is understandable, they’re concentrating), so it was really cool seeing them visibly having a great time as well as the singers and audience. Shows how powerful and uplifting The Lion King’s music is.
Yes, I am crying my eyes out. As a mixed race person... with European & African ancestry... the fusion of these two cultures here strikes a chord at my very DNA structure. A beautiful manifestation of me.
You know the value of a moment when it becomes a memory. As a 90s kid this OST means a lot to me and always got me in tears. My first experience on a cinema was the Lion king and the opening scene with Lebo M when I was only 4 years old. Almost 30 years later (with Hans Zimmer as all time favourite composer) you realize the impact music can have on us for a whole life.
This performance strikes a perfect balance between classical western orchestra-music and african vocals. It's a true testimony tot what we can achieve when we work together.
I had the privilege to see Hans Zimmers concert in Amsterdam. Of course all the Lion King scores were performed, including mr. Lebo M... It was absolutely phenomenal, best concert I have ever seen!
This really made me appreciate the music of this movie franchise and further made me truly appreciate the incredible work James Earl Jones has done with his career. Much love to the voice that lives in all of us. Much love James Earl Jones
Hearing this will always give me chills. Man the lion king is one of the best Disney ever made, but it’s soundtrack, is one of the best to exist. Hans Zimmer and Lebo M just made something truly incredible all those years ago and it will be remembered for generations to come. Watching this gave me chills and brought me back to the first time I watched the lion king.
As amazing as this makes me feel 😭 God fills me up bigger than this! 🙏 I encourage you to seek Him for yourself. The journey is not easy but it is worth it 🙏❤
Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope. ❤️
There's not a single time in my life that I heard circle of life without crying. This movie and this song just hit SO SO SO HARD in me. It's the movie of my childhood, my life and represents so much my relationship with my dad.
Black people are so special in many ways. They dominated this world in terms of singing, sports and beauty but often times they are misunderstood by their colors.. i love black people and always will be. Love from 🇵🇭
25 years ago the lion king was released and is still one of the greatest pieces of cinema ever produced,the original lion king is and will always be the best version
Hans Zimmer, GREATEST COMPOSER. Lebo M. and James Earl Jones. THE TRUE LION KINGS. Reasons YOU CAN NEVER. And I MEAN NEVER Forget their voices!!! Anyone Agree?
Já vi e revi esse vídeos umas dez vezes. Estou vendo novamente nesse momento e com os olhos cheios de lágrimas! Esse filme fez parte da minha infância e de milhares de crianças e jovens dos anos 90. A transição da música na parte 4:55 para a música INTRO do primeiro filme me derrubou total... são muitas boas memórias que consigo recuperar pouco a pouco daquela época. EXTRAORDINÁRIO!!!
Bienvenu S.N it was the combination of Hans Zimmer’s underscore but it’s also Lebo M’s words and the subtext of them. Because he’s talking about his people and my people and the Lion is actually God. At least that’s how I’m interpreting the Zulu.
As a 90's kid... this brings back so many fond memories. Looking at how much the world has changed, i would give anything to go back and hear this for the first time as a kid.
God I am so with you on this one. Our world back in the 90s just seemed so pure. Idk of it's because we were kids but life just seemed to have a purpose. I consider us lucky we were the last generation to enjoy this before it all changed. And like you I would give anything to go back one day and live that life again 😭
In memory of the Spirit River Elementary School Principal in Spirit River Alberta Canada She was murdered in the library of the school... She had just taught her students this song... Very beautiful.... Thank you for signing this so beautifully.... Cried from beginning
I love watching the expressions by those performing. The joy it brings them, reliving their childhood or those a bit older remembering this movie playing on repeat as their children are watching this masterpiece
At 4:58 I suddenly started crying. I remembered my childhood, my father who died when i was just a little boy. Now i’m 29 and here i am. Crying with the music we both used to hear. Thank God for this moment.
There's no such thing as "African music". The same way there's nothing like "European music". No generic collection. They have the same genres that everyone else has with a little bit more on top. Perhaps you mean South African folk music? Music and lyricism that is peculiar to South Africa alone. Music from Ethiopia, Nigeria and Egypt doesn't sound like this. I like where your mind's at but further education and exposure to the reality of things would help you understand better. There are 54 countries in Africa....it is kinda weird to refer to all those countries' arts as one collective.
Se eu estivesse nessa plateia n conseguiria prestar atenção por conta da tamanha emoção que eu sentiria! Pois ouvindo pelo RUclips eu chorei e continuo chorando toda vez que ouço
For a perfect sensation use headphones, Gosh I need to attend such an amazing concert in my life time...you literally feel like nothing else matters while listening to this❤❤❤
Lion king isn't just a movie but a sensation.
😭😭😭
Man, I don’t even know how to explain what I feel. It’s beyond words.. ❤️❤️❤️
FACT!
Those who don't feel that sensation have no soul. There's no other rational explanation 😭

the music is an absolute privilege
People who have the privilege to be in the audience, y'all are blessed
bulls eye 🙌🏼
Imagine a few members in the orchestra: Playing and holding back the feelings the same time (like the one woman with the violin at the end)
Should go to them. Awesome concerts - esp Hans Zimmer ones :)
Ur slow
So trueee
2:03 Look at that gigantic smile on that violinist's face!
thats the reason why become a musician. work with extraordinary people
Kkkkk
That was the probably the best time of her life, and I don't blame her XD
At 1:06 watch the trumpetist with watery eyes.
Beautiful man

Legacy of the Lion in her belly too. 3 generations singing n more. GLORY to JESUS 🎉❤
How beautiful ❤
She's so pretty and her voice is amazing
As a bass player, I can confirm the bassist is having the time of his life.
True.
The way his base leads a philharmonic orchestra is an amazing thing to hear.
I'm not even a bassist and I just came here to see the bassist. Because the bass line is dope.

hans zimmer is truly the best composer this world has ever seen
Anugreh Kaul In the case of The Lion King, it was Elon John who came up with the original score. Hans Zimmer just arranged it for an orchestra.

Black people are so special in many ways. They dominated this world in terms of singing, sports and beauty but often times they are misunderstood by their colors.. i love black people and always will be. Love from 🇵🇭
Correct our color which is beautiful as well
@@deliciaperry4684 cosmic 🔆🌠
As a black person, id like to say, white people are beautiful souls too....
Thx Arlan
Awwww. That’s so sweet. Thank you. You are beautiful also
Lebo M what an INCREDIBLE voice. Along with the pairings of all the other singers, absolute magic. Such an ethereal sound
25 years ago the lion king was released and is still one of the greatest pieces of cinema ever produced,the original lion king is and will always be the best version
Hans Zimmer, GREATEST COMPOSER. Lebo M. and James Earl Jones. THE TRUE LION KINGS. Reasons YOU CAN NEVER. And I MEAN NEVER Forget their voices!!! Anyone Agree?
Just laying here in bed, silently crying over this gorgeous performance 🥺😍😭 What amazing, beautiful voices; bless them all 💜
2022 here, goosebumps all over my body!! Incredible. My childhood.
“Long love the King 👑 “
He Lives in you. Thank's Lebo M.
Já vi e revi esse vídeos umas dez vezes. Estou vendo novamente nesse momento e com os olhos cheios de lágrimas! Esse filme fez parte da minha infância e de milhares de crianças e jovens dos anos 90. A transição da música na parte 4:55 para a música INTRO do primeiro filme me derrubou total... são muitas boas memórias que consigo recuperar pouco a pouco daquela época.
EXTRAORDINÁRIO!!!
The audience is blessed with such powerful music
Hans Zimmer is a Prophet.
Bienvenu S.N it was the combination of Hans Zimmer’s underscore but it’s also Lebo M’s words and the subtext of them. Because he’s talking about his people and my people and the Lion is actually God. At least that’s how I’m interpreting the Zulu.
Fuck off with your religious shit
@@prateeksingh8815 what's ur problem man it's his way to cheer hans.why u atheist are so negative.🤗
Bienvenu S.N don’t say that he is a human
I agree with ya
God i wish church looked like this..
Gospel churches do
I bet so many more people would go to church
It is heart-warming to see the people in the orchestra smiling while playing. It is showing how much they enjoy being part of this great performance.
I can’t help it every time I see this I start to tear up and get chills just from how magical and beautiful this is truly astounding!!!
1:26 that key change i had a musical chill 👌👌👌
I know I love that part gives me chills!!
As a 90's kid... this brings back so many fond memories. Looking at how much the world has changed, i would give anything to go back and hear this for the first time as a kid.
God I am so with you on this one. Our world back in the 90s just seemed so pure. Idk of it's because we were kids but life just seemed to have a purpose. I consider us lucky we were the last generation to enjoy this before it all changed. And like you I would give anything to go back one day and live that life again 😭
Awesome! just brings me to tears.....love to see African cultures (Maasai) & languages (Zulu, Swahili) shown in such a marvelous light!!!
Love to see the races coming together to perform a beautiful piece.
Just beautiful I feel the soul of Africa I feel the mother Land Thank you I loved every minute of this beautiful Video
In memory of the Spirit River Elementary School Principal in Spirit River Alberta Canada
She was murdered in the library of the school...
She had just taught her students this song...
Very beautiful....
Thank you for signing this so beautifully....
Cried from beginning
Hans Zimmer is a great visionary. His soundtracks are so deep and give me goosebumps every time I listen to them.
So beautiful! I love the smile of the violinist face at 2:02. :-)
same
Or the trumpetist at 1:06 he is almost in tears
That twinkle in his eyes 1:06
I feel you man
I love how the musicians and the singers are smiling through the performance
You don't need to be from a particular place to love this, you just need to be human and the music will penetrate your soul
I love watching the expressions by those performing. The joy it brings them, reliving their childhood or those a bit older remembering this movie playing on repeat as their children are watching this masterpiece
At 4:58 I suddenly started crying. I remembered my childhood, my father who died when i was just a little boy. Now i’m 29 and here i am. Crying with the music we both used to hear. Thank God for this moment.
african music is BEAUTIFUL!! the instruments used are so amazing
There's no such thing as "African music". The same way there's nothing like "European music". No generic collection. They have the same genres that everyone else has with a little bit more on top. Perhaps you mean South African folk music? Music and lyricism that is peculiar to South Africa alone. Music from Ethiopia, Nigeria and Egypt doesn't sound like this. I like where your mind's at but further education and exposure to the reality of things would help you understand better. There are 54 countries in Africa....it is kinda weird to refer to all those countries' arts as one collective.
This was made in the USA, not Africa ..
Queen Elizabeth II Africa is not a country.
+Seni Joshua Nothing gets past you.
Queen Elizabeth II My reflexes are too fast, I'd catch it.

I’m 36. And the start of this sing gives mee goosebumps…
I can't stop crying, my God, my heart hurts
00:29 **”Remember Who YOU are, You are MY son, AND the one TRUE King”** 🦁 👑
You are a Targaryen, Simba, the true king of the 7 sabanas 💜😁✌🏻
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😍😍😍❤❤❤😭😭😭😭😭
*This man is a legend.*
I cry
there are feelings i didn't know they were exist in me until i listened to this 😭😭😭
Crying like a baby😭😭😭😭
Se eu estivesse nessa plateia n conseguiria prestar atenção por conta da tamanha emoção que eu sentiria! Pois ouvindo pelo RUclips eu chorei e continuo chorando toda vez que ouço
I envy everyone who made it into the hall experiencing this in real time.... The goosebumps must have been marrd
I GREW UP WATCHING THE LION KING FILMS! THIS IS AMAZING! THIS IS PART OF THE SOUNDTRACK TO MY CHILDHOOD!
the guy at 1:06 is crying, and I can understand him
i would too
We all do
I'm crying now lol
I love both the animated film and the live action remake of Disney's the lion king and so do the soundtracks
❤️
Just 30 seconds in and I cried, this music holds so many memories....
For a perfect sensation use headphones, Gosh I need to attend such an amazing concert in my life time...you literally feel like nothing else matters while listening to this❤❤❤
The rain pouring on Simba's face as he climbs the edge of the rock roaring while the other lions join😢🫂
