I didn’t see Lucas, you might’ve, so I apologize in advance, but I believe the gentleman next to Spielberg was Itzhak Perlman, the violinist featured in Schindler’s List, one of William’s greatest works
My friends and I went to a field trip to see a classical concert and they played this....Everyone turned and looked at me as I freaked when Harry Potter started. FANGIRL POWER!
Always love how when the JAWS Theme starts the audience always laughs. It's like "How funny! Here comes the shark that eats people and turns them into bloody pulp!"
It must be hard to have other people play your music and just enjoy it without thinking, "Whoops, come on trumpets! Too slow here... Too fast there..."
Exactly what I was thinking. "Hey John, in your honor we're going to play some of your most famous pieces." While the whole time he's probably just playing the actual tribute in his head and noting were they made changes or mistakes!
@@ryanshurtz1455 I tear up every time I hear the _Superman_ theme because it is so triumphant and at the same time the story of Christopher Reeve is so tragic. But from the mid seventies to about the late eighties John Williams was at the top of his game and his contribution to the success of so many movies cannot be exaggerated. He was, as George Lucas put it, the "secret sauce" of his movies. No doubt!
@@ryanshurtz1455 John always rises to the occasion and gives credibility to whatever project he's scoring for. Star Wars could have come off as a silly science fiction movie with a lesser score* but John raised it to new heights. * In fact, John asked George at the very beginning whether he wanted him to do a "traditional" sci-fi theme or one with scope and weight, and boy am I glad George chose the latter!
I kind of wish somebody would make Moosebutter's "John Williams Is The Man" into an orchestra and choir arrangement. The medley is so fluid it feels like a single complete piece.
Why does John Williams look so displeased? The orchestra did great with everything they did (even though there was no Jurassic Park). If you watch Brendon Urie do Billy Joel’s tribute Billy is so happy
Ryan Shurtz : That person is named Itzhak Perlman. He is an internationally famous Israeli-American violinist. He played a violin medley for a song that John Williams composed for a Steven Spielberg 1993 movie called Schindler's List.
There's another one like this that transitions from Jaws into Star Wars. That one has a bit more impact than going into Superman. On the whole, though, not bad for an ensemble with no strings.

This is such a beautiful medley. John Williams is the Man
Un compositor maravilloso con sus bandas sonoras es un genio espectacular.😊😊
Never enough tributes in honor of Mr Williams. An American icon and gift to cherish always
I remember seeing both Jaws and Star Wars in the movie theater….blown away. Actually…add Close Encounters and ET to that too. I sobbed in both!
Amazing! It was quite touching to see John Williams there and Spielberg and Lucas, cheering each other on!
I didn’t see Lucas, you might’ve, so I apologize in advance, but I believe the gentleman next to Spielberg was Itzhak Perlman, the violinist featured in Schindler’s List, one of William’s greatest works
🎉amazing music, sounds, notes, melody, harmony, rhythm
This is the best I have EVER heard "The President's Own". Fabulous.
Thank you Maestro John Williams, amazing warrior and worker of World Music ! Happy 90th Birthday!
John Williams is a music genius!
The Maestro! Doesn’t matter how many times or how many different ways I hear his music, it always brings goosebumps
Absolutely BRILLIANT!!
Grateful n thankful for music
Saw John Williams music at Bridgewater Hall Manchester, brilliant!
My childhood greatest hits!
My friends and I went to a field trip to see a classical concert and they played this....Everyone turned and looked at me as I freaked when Harry Potter started. FANGIRL POWER!
Jurassic park, Jaws, and Star wars is better.
@@natethesnake3765 nobody asked
That’s awesome, I literally freak out whenever I hear live music of these films. John Williams makes amazing and outstanding music
Wow! I am amazed at the high quality of playing and this musical tribute is awesome!
Well, the President's own shouldn't stink!
Everytime I hear his music now, I can only hear John Williams is the man 😅🤣
John Williams best beloved composer of all times
GOAT ,greatest of all time👍🤩🥰😇☺️🤝😆☕
NOT!
Not!
Not!
NOT!
In tears. This is my childhood in a nutshell
Pure magic!!!!❤❤❤❤
What incredible quality of sound!!!
I didn’t know that Boris Johnson was such a good conductor.
You're right quite a resemblance👍😆😇🤝🤣🎇🎆🍻☺️🤩
He looks like a mix between Boris Johnson and Biff Tannen.
Absolute genius happy birthday John 🥃
Always love how when the JAWS Theme starts the audience always laughs. It's like "How funny! Here comes the shark that eats people and turns them into bloody pulp!"
It's because it's so distinctively iconic and synonymous with fear of sharks and dread itself, sort of like a dark humour aspect.
well.. that is fun? :D
I am going to watch JAWS again this weekend 🦈
What a TRIBUTE!!!
👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing ❤️❤️❤️
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’m glad boris Johnson has turned his life around now
Joanne Lunt and you just Had To put this in!
Great Music scores
When movies were great!
An amazing band that gives a full orchestral sound
Awesome song. Playing this for a youth orchestra. Hoping I can snag that snare drum part. I'll keep you guys updated. I have tryouts Monday
Grande banda e compositor de excepção!!!
Here are the songs in order
1 star wars
2 jaws
3 Superman
3 Harry Potter
4 Indiana Jones
5 E. T
thanks, i was wondering what was #4 theme after Suprerman
Harry Potter?? That was Jurassic Park.
@@stuarthammer3175 Jurassic Park was the one song I was waiting to hear in the medley. I'm still waiting, because that was definitely Harry Potter.
Thank you!

He's a national treasure and is one of if the greatest american composers.
@@JustWasted3HoursHere it's the Olympics theme for me. It just fills you with a sence that something epic is going to happen.

Ah. remember that time Boris Johnson conducted the tribute to John Williams?
Boris was born in the US. Lol
My exact thought when they first zoomed in on the conductor
I thought exactly the same at the start 😂
Jajajajajaj is him!
He should have stuck to the music !!!!☺
How the heck can you watch this and not smile???
John Williams, is the man, best composer in my life
Wonderful, thank you.
i love a well done tribute, has me in tears of Joy
You gotta wonder how many people pick their feet up off the floor with the jaws music started 🤣
Very good.
I kind of wish somebody would make Moosebutter's "John Williams Is The Man" into an orchestra and choir arrangement. The medley is so fluid it feels like a single complete piece.
Superbe !
The Slatkin family is so distinguished. This is great
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Genius !!!!!!!
My childhood, adolescence and all stages of my life.
But they miss Jurassic Park theme and Back to the future theme.
John Williams didn’t compose the BTTF theme. This is a tribute to him
@@raystantz2471 holy sh!! You are right! :o . I lived a lie.
Back to the future was Alan sulvestry
Alan Silvestri composed Back to the Future.
Songs to the greatest movies ever
3:04 hjah ja hja wtf ,see a ghost o what.Jhon Williams genius.
3:56 Jack Nicholson? I believe so!
The One&Only
John Williams was the Beethoven of our time
Perfect !!!
Bravo
Как все точно,филигранно,чувствуется армейская мед ь.
0:58 *pulls out comically large Clarinet*
He also did the theme music for Lost in Space!
PS THAT WAS AMAZING!💕
Show!!!!
Wow. ..maestro John Williams, is it boris jhonson really....
Sensacional
Think about the the amount of preps Boris took to prepare a masterpiece of this calibre.
Why does John Williams look so displeased? The orchestra did great with everything they did (even though there was no Jurassic Park). If you watch Brendon Urie do Billy Joel’s tribute Billy is so happy
The tempo was to rapid for his original music
He probably likes his music played as he wrote it.
Would anyone happen to know who the man that walked out with Spielberg on crutches is?
Thanks in advance!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itzhak_Perlman
Ryan Shurtz : That person is named Itzhak Perlman. He is an internationally famous Israeli-American violinist. He played a violin medley for a song that John Williams composed for a Steven Spielberg 1993 movie called Schindler's List.
Ah that's what I thought but wasn't sure.
@@ryanshurtz1455 Well now you know.
pretty sure I covered that several days ago, champ
2:07 what is this song?
epic!
O Cara é muito bom
Interestingly good since they don't have a string section.
There's another one like this that transitions from Jaws into Star Wars. That one has a bit more impact than going into Superman.
On the whole, though, not bad for an ensemble with no strings.
Correction, the harp has strings.
Chills.
Great! John Williams is a legend. But why is the applause in the end looped (and a quite bad one)?
The announcer sounds like Gregory Peck!
0:21
Wowowow
Film music 🎵 ???:John God Williams.
Can anyone say the name of scores as in order ?
Can anyone list these songs in order? We are having a debate at home.
Star Wars, Jaws, Superman, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, ET (slight reprise of a few melodies at the end)
John Williams isn't from Earth!
His compositions are from "the outer space".
3:04 Williams is not amused.
He's probably overwhelmed by all of this. Wouldn't you be? I know I would.
no
Bravo!
best movies ever be like:
jaws
Jurassic park
Indiana jones
Star Wars
Tru tho
Jurassic Park? :'(
OMG am I the only one who thinks that the conductor looks like Donald Trump?😂😂😂
you're the only one! I think Lenny Slatkin would be appalled at the comparison!
more Boris Johnson (UK politician)
Both trump and Boris Johnson are an insult to the conductor
no close encounters so sad
Darn, no Jurassic Park.
