Joseph Bologne Chevalier de Saint Georges was a master of the sword, the bow, and the baton! He was also an amazing composer who influenced the teenaged Mozart and performed his music for the King and Queen of France. I am working on getting the funding so that my Four Seasons Orchestra of Arizona can perform some of Bologne's violin concertos, symphonic works, and operatic arias. Donations to our nonprofit are always welcome. I will be first in line to see Chevalier. I put his biography into my book Fifty Famous Composers For Kids Of All Ages! Bologna was brilliant and he is sure to amaze the World!
Make sure to the quote from Henry Angelo where he says Joseph could be "often be seen swimming across the Seine with only one arm"
@Liberals Hate kcalB People 🏳️🌈⃠ I appreciate your candid response. The afrocentric "revision" of historical events are both quite disgusting, as well as comedical to me at the same time.
I hope and pray you efforts go through. I feel saddened I never knew of his greatness till now.
I never knew this
Except he was a largely failed composer. This revisionist garbage is getting old.
I wonder if Alexandre Dumas's father (who was a general during the French Revolution) is going to appear in this movie. He was also the mixed-race son of a nobleman who came to France at a young age. Thomas-Alexandre Dumas actually trained under Joseph Bologne at the fencing academy.
And don’t forget he served under him before getting higher ranking
@@jonathangillum7550 Yes! It would be really cool if we get to see the "Black Legion". I really hope there's at least a mention of Dumas in the movie or a small appearance. Their connection is really interesting as the few men of color in Paris at the time who were both part of high French society.
Cool to know - Alexandre Dumas Sr was from the colony that is now Haiti (St Domingue)
literally came here to say the same thing.
I have been wanting to see a movie about that man for years. He was a total badass.
Being from Guadeloupe myself and having briefly heard about him growing up, I'm happy there's a movie finally putting him in the spotlights. He truly deserves global recognition. Can't wait to see it!
Moi aussi!
Claude Ribbe a fait deux livres sur lui et un téléfilm mais oui, un film manquait.
I wish there could be a movie about the brave and spectacular defense the Blacks of Guadeloupe tried to put up against the French invasion that Napoleon threw against the island. That deserves recognition too.
@@BaronsHistoryTimes guadeloupe invasion ? By the british.
@@fabs8498 Hi,... I'm referring to the sinister ambitions of Napoleon Bonaparte who sent an invasion fleet to the French West Indies to roll back the French Revolution's actions of abolishing slavery on those colonies several years before he became dictator of France.
Guadeloupe's Blacks did their best to resist the invaders under a battle cry of "Live Free or Die!'; and from that brave effort came two tragic- heroic stories; I made videos about them too. The 'Mulaltresse Solitude', and the story of the explosive last stand at the Anglemont Plantation.
It's a story that most West Indians should learn about among other historic heroic incidents.
The scene where he learns to regain his rhythm is both symbolic and inspiring because when we usually feel uncomfortable around our surroundings, we must push through and fight for a better change!!! 10/10!!! His legacy will be know and his artistic views will not be forgotten. He is apart of history!!!🎻
It was a pretty terrible TV special
@@hortleberrycircusbround9678 🤡
@@hortleberrycircusbround9678 damn really?
@@kinman3051 This person dislikes Chevalier. Strong hater vibes from the Circus. Go so it for yourself. Not as good was I hoped but not as bad as the hater and some critics say either!
@@hortleberrycircusbround9678 True
These are the movies that send me running to the theaters. With that said I hope there is historical accuracy that comes along with it. Like for instance, Joseph Bologne was already a legit accomplished musician before Mozart came along. Bologne helped create a whole genre "Sinfonia Concertante". Not to mention guess who sampled who...? Still excited for this release!
I am, also excited to see the accuracy. Mozart is amazing but, dislike when others call Chevalier the black mozart. I was listening to him this morning.
The Owner of the Fencing Club (We teach traditional, not sport fencing.) I'm a part of showed me this film.- We have a picture of St George, Alexandre Dumas, and Henry Angelo on our wall of champions. Most people have no idea who they are, Which usually leads me to a lengthy explanation of who they were, and were some of the best Swordsmen in the world at that time despite the adversity they faced.
There is another movie about St.George Le Mozart noir (TV Movie 2003) - I have yet to see it as well. I don't want to sully my expectations of it.
I am here for THIS CHAOS!
Chevalier was half white. His aristocrat father banged his slave girl maid. He's not the Kang you thought he was.
This one and Devotion starring Jonathan Majors as Jesse Brown, first African-American to complete the US Navy Basic Flight Training Program back in 1948... you could imagine how hard that was just to get in the room. Highly decorated military pilot. Need these stories told cause they weren't in school.
I’m French and half Afro-Caribbean like Joseph. This is going to be a rollercoaster for me. I thank the production team for representing my Guadeloupean heritage 🇫🇷 This looks like a very powerful and important movie, especially in our current political state in France. Just like Belle (2013), I can sense that it is going to be a timeless masterpiece, with universal values communicated.
So creole?
Same here 😊
I'm white, this is beyond wonderful. What kills me is I'm sure there are many more stories like this that we dont know about. And I for one would LOVE to hear them.💜
@@jonathanhendrix2925 Creole were the White born in the colonies
@Lo Lo NOT in Jamaica. The creole were Blacks born on the island as opposed to Africa.
I love how there's people out there who know the history(s) beyond what's taught in our classrooms. I love that those histories are coming to light. Keep them coming 🫶
You realize this is French history and in the broader view he is an average Classical composer.
Always a hater 👆🏾
@@user-ug5fm4ct9y truth doesn't always fit your wishes
@@user-ug5fm4ct9ydon’t you have some ancient Egyptian history to be stealing?
Imagine believing this is even remotely true? Lol.
A story 500 years in the making. When I discovered him after studying Opera as a Bass-Baritone being the only African origin male in my class I hoped fervently that one day his story would be told. I hope they inform the world that Mozart was his competitor and learned from his arrangements as well as from others.
500 years in the making or 500 years overdue?
220 years*
He died in 1799. Also, he and Mozart were not competitors, they were actually cooperators. They lived together for a few months in 1778, and apparently Mozard asked Joseph to play some of his pieces.
Mozart was not his competitor. For a start Mozart was nearly 10 years younger, and composed divine symphonies, operas, sonatas, concertos, oratorios, cantatas, chamber music, songs, divertimentos, serenades, masses, requiems, etc and Bologne composed….what?
@@mediolanumhibernicus3353 Well who wouild know WHAT or IF he composed anything. It's typical of black history to be either taken or erased. Don't blame "playing victim" as Dave Chapelle said: I've just noticed a pattern.
@@Allthebest1010 But...we DO know: Joseph Bologne/Chevalier de Saint-Georges composed numerous works. They've been available to listen to on CZcams forever, and he's a name familiar to plenty of classical fans ALREADY. Mozart composed works as a child BEFORE and then long AFTER those 2.5 months he lived near Chevalier, his style changing radically from one period to the next, AND had been influenced in turn by composers decades and centuries before HIM: it's not like when White America acted like Elvis Presley "invented" Rock and Roll by slapping a coat of White skin, er, "paint" on it. Yeah, patterns exist (again, the White appropriation of Rock and Roll in America) but just because one exists doesn't mean every dot you see connects back to the same line, as it were. Sometimes it IS cultural erasure (AND PEOPLE SHOULD BE MORE AWARE OF IT)...and sometimes when you're saying "well, who knows WHAT of IF he composed anything?" you should first make sure you're NOT talking about one of the then-well-regarded, still-well-remembered-and-performed composers of his period?
I saw this movie at TIFF and it was amazing! All the actors were stunning in their roles, especially Kelvin! I'm gonna be dragging EVERYONE to it in April!
@@despitebeing He's literally a real man that existed in French history, I'm sorry your racist pea-brain can't comprehend that.
I've never heard of him I want to see it
Stunning....and brave?
@@dmurray2978 Where did someone say brave? Sounds like you're Projecting
@PurelyAfrican And? You know how many British actors play American characters?
I've been listening to him for almost 10 years. This release makes me almost cry! So many black trailblazers that stories are untold. I'm glad the world will become aware of this great genius
The "genius" part of him was because he was half white.... yall cannot come up with a legitimate black "genius" because the intelligence requirement is beyond your capacity.
@MOONLIGHT LOVE 🌙💓 one drop rule. fucking animals.
@MOONLIGHT LOVE 🌙💓 in his timing, someone that was half black was labeled complete moor or black.
Even now if a person has any partial black from a parent or grandparent they are considered black.. however most white people only do that now to attribute something negative to someone black. Also if you read about him you will learn that his difficulties as an artist was because they viewed him as a BLACK or MOOR musician. He received no recognition or privilege for being mixed race. He instead received neglect despite his genius and even not proper recognition by calling him the Black Mozart instead of recognizing him for his own excellence.
So YES black trailblazer
@@joabphilosophy2138 Half black. Ok His dad was WHITE FRENCH MUSICIAN. HE’D GET NAME FAME WELTH AND ANOTHER MILLION THINGS INCLUDE MUSIC ABILITIES FROM HIS WHITE DAD. Don’t forget. Ok ???
@@West-Telecom too bad that his “talents” from his white dad made him proud a BLACK MAN who was a supporter and advocate ago slavery AND had a very close relationship with his BLACK mom!
The Chevalier de Saint-Georges' real story is very much more amazing than fiction.
I saw the film today. Wow, I had no idea. Very grateful to the producers for bringing Joseph Bologne's story to the big screen. Bravo 👏👏
Amazing man, representing for us biracials👏👏
where did you watch it?
reading such post like urse is embarassing and disgusting. are u ppl trying to rewrite black history wipe out slavery from the past ? u really wanna re write history to ur favore
darwinismus . take a person from another ethnic group . put him on clothes . teach him how to act. and badabooooom the elite got the playball. almost 300years later the gender troll takes place and ppl thinking a black person did participate on white culture. lol
I am truly happy to see this being made. I’ve always found Saint-George’s’ tale, along with that of Dumas, to be riveting! That said, a story is not “untold” merely because you never read it.
It's "untold" because unlike several other historical figures in this movie, there aren't already numerous adaptations of their story.
Untold because I've never open a book 😎
I CONCUR!!!!!
@@borisguillen31 it's only recently that he is mentioned in any music history textbook.
@@hopems yes he was. Obviously not in Amerikkka.
A friend turned me on to him..I'm a musician and had never heard of him and I was instantly obsessed!! Deeply so found pieces of his story could never really get a sense of his life and wished there was a film and I was mad there wasn't and now I can't even believe...I am so ecstatic and reading the other comments of others who probably felt the same I am head over heels in love with y'all...Stephen Williams and Stefani thank you so much for following a vision.❤️
This guy was great at everything. He also taught France's General Thomas-Alexander Dumas, (the father of the famous author Alexander Dumas) how to use the sword. There needs to be a movie about Thomas Alexander Dumas also. His story is almost as great & sad as The Chevalier. Napoleon's jealousy of his size, strength & fighting ability got him thrown in a dungeon that eventually broke & killed him. Most of Alexander Dumas' books like the Three Musketeers & The Count of Monte Cristo were likely inspired by his father's life stories. The Chevalier was so much more than a great violinist. They left his entire military career out of this movie. He lead & taught the Legion Noire (The Black Legion), the best swordsmen in the French military, who all were Black men, how to fight. (I'd bet that the Three Musketeers story by Alexander Dumas was inspired by the Black Legion, since his father was also in that military unit at one point in his career).

Did you work on the film?
He did a PHENOMENAL job! 10/10!
imposter post 10/ 10
I'm excited to see this because of him. He's phenomenal in It Comes At Night and Luce 😊
Just a shame that the violin playing miming is so awful
I’m so excited to see this! I don’t believe in obtaining all of your historical knowledge from Hollywood produced films, but I am glad that he is being introduced to the masses. There are so many more stories like this that need to be told!
when I was a kid and historical movies would come out, my mom would take us to the library to read about the real story right after seeing it. Wish more people had this mindset
Yes, a lot of historical films have inaccuracies, romanticize and gloss over important topics. I definitely recommend people to read and do their own research! I am glad that these movies are at least bringing these stories to the masses!
@@erinrising2799 What a great mom.
After the movie it would be neat to see a serious documentary on him.
Yes indeed! Just by the trailer alone I can tell they took the liberty to change up the story however I definitely am excited to see the film. I love movies and I love history.
AT LAST, a biopic of Chevalier De Saint-Georges and his amazing destiny! It's a total shame french cinematographers have never honored Joseph Boulogne's story and talent on screen yet.
Never heard of him. I'm going to do research
@Liberals Hate kcalB People 🏳️🌈⃠ He was better than you, for sure.
@Liberals Hate kcalB People 🏳️🌈⃠ yeah he wasn’t good. He was great. That’s why they called him the black Mozart.
Cinematographers are in charge of how films are shot; how they *look.* They don't make the films.
This Man's work was ASTOUNDING!!
The Chevalier de Saint-Georges finally gets his movie.
Finally....As a Violinist....when I discovered Chevalier I was enraptured. I almost leapt from my bed in pure joy. Since this is A Movie...for those who want to get to know him..I beseech you to go about your research with a newfound fervor. You will fall in Love with this multi- talented being. ❤️❤❤❤
Seems like there were many mixed race men in the past 200 years it was just killing the game
Hell yes Joseph Bolonge is one of my favorite historical figures. He's like a real life Brook from One Piece, but with more organs.
I've heard very interesting things about Chevalier de Saint Georges and am looking to get some of his music one day! He led quite an incredible life from music to fencing to getting involved in the French Revolution! I always thought his story was practically cinematic and made for the movies so I'm glad to see that now one is being released!
Coby stearns, Saint George is to the XVIII th ct. what Samuel Coleridge-Taylor is to the XIX th. its time to give all those men their flowers .
There's plenty of Bologne's music on my channel if you'd like to listen.
Bruh he had affairs with white woman this dude wanted to kiss off whitey so bad
I found some CZcams music sheets for violin of this musician

I'm a Middle School Orchestra teacher, and I just learned about him a few years ago (sad that required COLLEGE level music history courses never mentioned his name). I recently found an arrangement of one of his symphonies that my class can play, so when I saw the trailer I was super excited. Can't wait for opening night!
You didn't hear about him because his music is average. Have you heard of the French composer Jean-Philippe Rameau? Most people haven't and he's a more important composer than Joseph Boulogne.
@@hortleberrycircusbround9678 I actually DID learn about Rameau in my music history classes. And "average" is just an opinion, isn't it? Wagner is considered one of the "greats", yet I really don't like any of his music. And let's remember that no less of a composer than JS Bach's work was largely forgotten and ignored until Felix Mendelssohn started performing it about 100 years after it was 1st composed. Now everyone and their cousin performs and records Bach ad nauseam! But I can't help but think that music history courses before Mendelssohn would've only mentioned Bach as a footnote.
Time will tell, but I'm personally excited to hear Boulogne's music. Again, the more well-known composers have been performed and recorded TO DEATH, so it's kind of refreshing to hear one that hasn't!
@@guccideltaco but Bach is the GOAT and Joseph is alright. Not a trailblazer- kinda basic when compared to Bach , Mozart, etc. You maybe bored of the Greats but they are greats for a reason and it ain't random or opinions.
@@guccideltaco that Bach/ Mendelssohn stuff is overblown nonsense. Bach was never forgotten and his 3 sons held it down for him. CPE Bach was extremely famous. Either way you won't be able to make Boulogne's music any better than it is and when this woke moment dies down, his music will be seen for what it is- which is average.
@@hortleberrycircusbround9678 Still an opinion, and considering in his day Boulogne was known as Le Mozart Noir, it seems to me that people of that time considered him well above "average".
I personally am glad I got "woke" to his music and story, and I don't think it's going away. People in the classical music world are embracing it, and the only people who are trying to minimize it are "good ol' boy" types who are just intimidated by the idea of people of color having a larger influence on society than they knew.
This was one of the best movies I've seen this year. Absolutely amazing! 💗
This is the first time I've heard about Joseph and I'm really excited for this movie. It looks great!
You should, you'll be amaze and Dumas as well.
To be honest i believe his friend Thomas Alexander Dumas has a better story but it is what it is.
I am 75 years old and had never heard of the Chevalier until I came across video about him on Utube. I have learned that our history in school was very incomplete. I will be looking forward to the movie.
That is great to hear. And you are right about the history that we learn in school. There was a group black and mixed people in the past that lived in Europa. Europa was in that past not 100% white then some people think. A small group of black people was there in West and north-west Europe.
@@huffepuf3066 Thank you for your reply, I will continue to look for more history such as this
When you've literally known about this guy for years because you're a classical music and you're so excited for the rest of your muggle (non-music) friends to find out about him!!!
I've known about him for about 10 years, or more, I'm excited that he gets to have his "come back". Finally!!😊😊😊😊👏👏👏😊😊😊
George Bridgetower was a Black British violinist who Beethoven used often for performances. Hopefully his story will be told one day.
Now Bridgetwower is better known his name was on the Kreutzer Sonata and this story has gotten more travel than Boulougne's for some reason yet Chevalier left music . So interesting that Beeth got to know him and he must have been incredible violinist Beeth didn't sweat the untalented .Bridgetower was no Beethoven in composition !
In todays woke age it will
It’s a pity he and Beethoven had a falling out, otherwise the famous Kreutzer sonata would have been named the bridge tower sonata
@@PoldarkGodzilla This is the stupidest comment ever. Waaah waaah movies about Black historical figures make me angwy they’re so woke.
@@PoldarkGodzilla If being awake hurts so much, go back to sleep!
Wow this is amazing, finally this untold story gets told on the biggest screen...slowly but surely, he did play a part in changing the world, if only he could see things now. Rip brother🙏🏾
There is also a very moving documentary about his life here: czcams.com/video/KtKjWN73B_I/video.html
Did you just call him a "brother"? Are you also of Senegalese descent? Just asking.
Very true...!!! That movie looks soooo damn good...!!! 💪 🎞️ ♥️
@@tuberobottoThey could be calling him brother as another descendant from the motherland. They do not need to be from the same country. If you are part of the Afrikan diaspora and do not understand or even agree with this, then please do some reading (not watch CZcams videos). It’s this ignorance that is continuing to prevent our unity
I was thinking the same thing. 🥺🥺🥺😢😢😢
He was instrumental in commissioning Haydn's Paris Symphonies, and performed them as well.... amazing.
Just going to put this out there. Chevalier de St George is from my parents' island, Guadeloupe. Proud of him.😊
Me too!!!
I read about him as a kid from one of J.A. Rogers' books. Great to see him portrayed in a movie.
I just left the theater
Hands down its the best movie of the year
My son plays the piano. He was the only black pianist in the schools' jazz competitions. I'm so taking him to see this movie. This is great!
sad
I'm happy to see more movies created about people of African Descent. Sadly, I didn't grow up hearing about this amazing artist. Hopefully, in spirit he knows that his story is now a movie. Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏
ABOUT TIME. I discovered his music a couple of years ago and I was astonished (kinda) that I had never heard of him. His compositions are wonderful!!
I know right. Mixed race men have been killing the game for a long time now and I love that he’s representing for the mixed community.

I am so excited to discover they are making a film about this incredible composer, fencer, and revolutionist! I’m pleased when films are produced about the lives of brilliant Black that “Hidden Figures.” So many are untold. Thank you Searchlight pictures!👏🏾👏🏾
"Hidden Figures" is pure race-baiting propaganda. They quite literally took what a white man accomplished & made it seem like the three black women did it all... it's funny how you people talk about "untold" stories, and then praise stories that untell the truth in favor of some foolish race-pandering nonsense. Never mind the fact that the three black women quite LITERALLY stated that they never felt "held back" or that "racism" was a major factor, as they said "no one had time for that", yet the movie acts like they were being brutally held back every second of their lives. Such a joke.
You cannot complain about "untold" stories when these "stories" were very much TOLD. Joseph's music is quite literally all over this site with MILLIONS of views. His "story" is very much known among the classical music world.
Have you ever heard of Rachmaninnoff? Of course not, doesn't mean his story is "untold", it just means that a person who doesn't care for classical music isn't aware of everything that happened. Does that justify me making some deluded narrative about how Rach was "forgotten" because he was a white man? Do you see how foolish that sounds?
As for this movie, it's bordering on complete fiction. Yes he was what could be considered a "prodigy". No, he did not humiliate Mozart & was not even REMOTELY on Mozart's level. What a joke. Not to mention he didn't shape France's literal history as this trailer clearly suggests.
I swear, the desperation of black ppl to cling unto fake history for the sake of their own fragile ego is truly pathetic. Take pride in your humanity. If you really want to take pride in your racial history, then take pride in what ACTUALLY happened. Instead of.... this nonsense.
The way this kid chooses his roles!!! I can't wait to see this.
i was JUST thinkin' that!
oh my gosh! This literally brought TEARS TO MY EYES! The Violin is one of my favorite instruments. This Actor is phenominal and so happy to see him flourishing. Loved him in Godfather of Harlem. This trailer was so Capitvating with Imperative messages and stories to be told. Whew! Cant wait to get my tickets! #Chills #Chevalier
He was wonderful as Christian in Cyrano too if you haven't seen it already! His voice is beautiful and he brought such a youthful hope and romance to the role, I'm so excited to see him on a big screen again!

About time someone did a film about Bologne! This film does him justice, but we need part 2 and 3. This barely covers his amazing history. Or Netflix or HBO should do a series that covers his whole life.
His story is awesome so many interesting things happened to him still the detail that I love the most is how much his father believed in him and supported him, that brings me to tears.

Same. Listened to Nobel blood podcast and I got misty eyed too. It would’ve been easy for his dad to dismiss him but obviously loved his son and wanted the best for him. Shows you what love and support can do
This is so exciting. The world needs to know about this remarkable man and hear his beautiful music. So few are as accomplished as Joseph Bologne. 🤺Thank you to all involved 🙏
so glad we get to see more of lucy boynton in period dramas. and she's always so selective over her projects that u just know this is gonna HIT
she doesn't have much range
She's not selective...she's just not offered much.
I completely agree with you! I love Lucy Boynton and she's very,very talented indeed!
I first saw her in BBC Sense and Sensibility 2008..as a child but she was really talented there they say that she stole the show and she definitely did...I now want to see her in more shows like The Pale Blue Eye 2022, and I'm the pretty thing that lives in the house both by Netflix and of course definitely this movie right here.
And just collecting her movies.
I just saw this movie, and I loved it! the scenery, the costumes, the MUSIC was spectacular!
This documentary based on a true story was outstanding, excellent and extraordinary🎉
A must watch❤
So happy this story is finally being told I hope they do it justice & it gets the recognition it deserves !
I'm taking my wife's boyfriend to this he's gonna love it.

Kevin Harrison needs to win an Oscar for his performance of the swordsman and violinist Joseph Bologne. This story needs to be told and people need to watch this movie about this historical black frenchman.
stow your enthusiasm, you haven't seen his performance yet. And too early an oscar win, can be the death knell to an actor's career.
Why? Why does the world have to stand still everytime a movie about racial tension is made? Do we see movies of non-oriental people who became successful during the Mongolian Empire? Or movies of white people who excelled in middle eastern societies? This movie would probably suck if it wer
Little "woke" clown.
just want to clarify, considering the tone of certain comments, i absolutely love the idea of this film.
Always interesting to me is the many shades of veiled racism. We see you.
There are so many stories like this to be told in France (Alexander Dumas), Portugal (King John), Italy (Pope D'Medici), Russia (Alexander Pushkin), Spain (Pedro Alonso Nino) etc, etc. I hope this is the beginning of a trend bcuz if White and Black are ever to have a reconciliation on any platform these stories need to be told.
Except the Russians knew the genealogy of Alexandre Pushkin but never viewed him as a mixed race man. He has always been their pride and joy and they could care less about his mulatto skin color. He was just called a Russian mastermind. Period
I am so happy to see his story being told. A bit of a British slant to a true story that took place in France.....but still glad it's being told on the big screen!
I have loved his music for 20 years, and only in the past two years have I heard it played lived, twice, by the New Esterhazy Quartet in San Francisco. They told the audience it is rarely performed. And that is a crying shame. So looking forward to this film!
What compositions would you recommend?
These bots are funny 😁
reading such post like urse is embarassing and disgusting. are u ppl trying to rewrite black history wipe out slavery from the past ? u really wanna re write history to ur favore
darwinismus . take a person from another ethnic group . put him on clothes . teach him how to act. and badabooooom the elite got the playball. almost 300years later the gender troll takes place and ppl thinking a black person did participate on white culture. lol
I bet this movie is gonna left our ears blessed in theatres.
It was UK radio station Classic FM who brought me to Chevalier. What an amazing, incredible life. 😮🎻
Remarkable film. I would love to see it in a theatre.
Chevalier is gonna be a beautiful sympathy!
Wow a film is to be made about this guy. Hardly knew his music a year ago. Brilliant idea, wish the film success. A good story, and as for stories, I especially like them when they are based on true history.
This movie was so good, I wish everyone would watch it.
I literally just watched a couple of documentaries about Joseph Bologne Chevalier a couple days ago and I was thinking he’s brilliant, why isn’t there a movie based on his life and all of his accomplishments. I can’t wait to see this movie.
I am beyond pleased to see he is finally being recognized 👏👏👏
I had been looking at a documentary about Joseph Bologne Chevalier De Saint Georges and thought what a fascinating and interesting true story; they should make it into a film...a day goes by and I see this amazing trailer on CZcams ! I was shocked and surprised😊
Wow, I read about his life when I was in college at A n T. I love the line when he said "not everything is about u people".
Wow! I saw a history profile of him just yesterday and wondered if there would ever be a film made about his life, and here it is!! I look forward to seeing it soon!!
I’ve played the violin for over 10 years and never heard of his music or story before and it’s a shame because his work speaks for itself and he should be on the same level as Mozart and Beethoven.
No one has ever heard of him. So, yeah, his work speaks for itself. This is revisionist garbage.
No he shouldn't- Bologne isn't even close. Name one composition of Bologne that's on their level. Have you heard Beethoven's late string quartets? Mic drop.
Mozart stole music from Joseph it’s giving Mozart couldn’t make his on music
can't wait to see this! been fascinated by the Chevalier since I was first introduced to his opera The Anonymous Lover, and his story is just amazing. The film looks great too :)
Now, this is a FILM!!! It is so good!!! I will see it again!
Wow, Chevalier de Saint Georges' story is amazing! I only know a little about his work and contributions to music. Can't wait until this movie hits theaters!
Lynda, glad his story is finally being told. we nee to keep the momentum because having biracial lead could "fall out of flavor" by next decade.
it's about time his story is told to the masses!
Beautiful and inspiring piece. No crazy backdrop but clean in every way, highlighting the life of Joseph Bologne. 8/10
OMG I'm so excited to see this!!! Bout time!!!! Hoping the story has been done justice and it lives up to even half of the epicness that was Joseph Bologne in real life!!
"you cannot topple what has been ordained by God!" ❤️Marie Antoinette
Poor poor Empress' daughter . She had more courage and sense than the men around her. Is this yet another saying that she never really said. Her era believed in Divine Right of Kings so it's really a throwaway statement . Mozart as we all know will never be toppled . It takes a lot of Hadyn listening before you find just one keyboard concerto out of 11 that you can listen to and out of 107 symphonies luckily there is always a treat in one of the hundreds of movements. Recently fell in lovewith the earliest ones. JohannChristian Bach really deserves his place with Hadyn .!
Pasha, if only she'd known
The fact that it took soo long to tell his story is heartbreaking.
It didn't.
@@jrobs1133 I'd say 223 years is quite a while
@@luisdanielflores5084 Try reading books
@@jrobs1133 if it isn't obvious the original comment referred to film representation.
@@luisdanielflores5084 No, it didn't. Otherwise, the comment would have read; the fact that it took soo long to tell his story in film is heartbreaking. You know, to make it obvious
🎀I remember watching a documentary about this gentleman and I even brought a book on his life. I can’t wait to watch this 🥰.🎀
I was watching the history behind CHEVALIER just amazing 👏🏾. I couldn't be more proud . I can't wait to watch this . His story is already ingrained in my mind.
Are you proud of that straightened afro too? Are any of you? LOL
@@Steve-cm2ys Go away.
Yes I am so excited! I love classical music history and this guy has some great works. Haydn liked him and Mozart was jealous of him as we saw in the trailer. I can’t wait!!!
Idiot. Moxart never was on Paris to know him.
Mozart was jealous of this success... Like all other composer who have more success than him. Mozart Was too in advance on his time to be appréciate. That why people worship his genius now.
@@alistar92little did he know a man named Salieri would be as jealous and attempt to kill him for similar feelings
@@loganfruchtman953 no ,Salieri didnt kill him for sure. He was italian. In this time, all the best job available in music were for the italian. German musician were not considered. But when Mozart die, everything have changed. Salieri s been fired from the german national opera 6 month after . Italian musician lobby was dead
ooooo this looks gooood. Never heard of this genius before and this is a shame. The world is entitle to learn everyone's history. Tell it all. Cannot wait to see it!
I cannot wait to see this one! I am glad they are featuring this Prodigy!
It's crazy that we never learned about this fascinating person until recently!!! Thank God his story is being told!!
Because he was french.
BRILLIANTLY TOLD!! I wish I knew of him before now!! 🙏🏽🥀🙌🏽❤️
Well now you do
I have really been fascinated by this man ever since I learned about him in a boxing book, and he lived quite a life as a soldier, a swordsman, a street fighter, and a true master of the violin and composing. Chevalier de Saint George aka Joseph Bologne was definitely ahead of his time!
Edit: Speech to text is something else!
reading such post like urse is embarassing and disgusting. are u ppl trying to rewrite black history wipe out slavery from the past ? u really wanna re write history to ur favore
darwinismus . take a person from another ethnic group . put him on clothes . teach him how to act. and badabooooom the elite got the playball. almost 300years later the gender troll takes place and ppl thinking a black person did participate on white culture. lol
Wonderful movie! We saw it today.
I finished reading his biography about 2 months before I learned the movie was coming out. I am looking forward to watching this amazing movie
This looks incredible!!!! 👏👏👏👏
I've never heard of this man ,and being that I love historical dramas I definitely can't wait to see this movie. It looks really good, reminds me of "Belle"
Deirdra, and Belle was also a true account. Gems like these are precious.

Finally!
I was hoping a movie of this interesting person would come along
Can’t wait
This man has a fascinating story. Great music for the classical period. I hope they do him justice
It's gonna be EPIC!!!
I just hope they give enough space to his music. Probably the only thing hotter than his biography is his compositions hehe
I’m shock to know that I’ve never heard of this man. I will be watching!
He did exist.
IT'S ABOUT TIME! I'M GOING TO TAKE OFF IF I HAVE TO, TO SEE THIS ASAP!
Interesting schools didn’t teach about this man during history class. I’m glad this is being made and hopefully they make more movies about historical black figures.
Schools don't teach about how several natives helped Spain to defeat Aztec Empire
Apparently to teach about minorities being more than slaves is teaching a certain group of people to hate themselves.
Did schools teach you about historical white figures like Rachmaninoff? Isn't that interesting as well?
@@SabatSch95very fascinating! I personally prefer Russian musicians
Half black. His dad is white noble french
I can't wait to see it!!!!!
How amazing, that such a revolutionary person existed, I never heard of him until now and it maybe we’re ready for his rebirth to inspire so many others! I know I’m already inspired by this man’s legacy. We are living in transformative times for this to be released.

Boy I am so excited, seriously!!!! So many people never heard of him...
I'm extremely excited to see this!
Great historical content that needed to be exposed to all generations! I will be observing this with the quickness when released.
