This song is magic. Every time I hear it I'm transported to a time of simplicity, kindness, beauty, and wonder.
Thank you 🤗
Yes..I feel the way too!

@@WDRKlassik It's a beautiful piece of music, well done!
Christopher, the serenity I feel is wonderful. Whenever I feel angry, upset, or frustrated, I listen to this theme song for therapeutic soothing of the heart.
When the world was young and life was beautiful...
It still is or can be.

I believe it will be Beautiful when we wake up in that Innocent place we all came from.😊
Become like children Jesus said
Negative thinking at it's finest
@@Mr.56Goldtopno, this generation is innocence. People before were more genius, creative and great..
This is on the soundtrack of a generation of people. People who worked hard and enjoyed the simplicity of maybe a Sunday afternoon.
Well said.
This song brings back all the burst of young love and youth. It will always be a part of my life. I was 14 when I first heard it in the movie. Like all teenage boys, I had a huge crush on Sandra Dee. Now at 78, I relive all those wonderful memories and feelings. How great when a song can do this to you. 💙
🤗
So am I......
I feel the same way . Each time I hear it, once again I 'm 14 and
get lost in a fantasy world which on ly a 14 year old will know.
I watched this wonderful movie 🎥. A summer place. I like the part. 😅with the Christmas 🎄 three
Long ago and far away there was beauty and peace.
This is beautiful and it was our time. Great time to grow up and start our life.
🤗
One of the prettiest songs ever written. ❤️
🤗
So this was written
This world will never be this Graceful ever again!
"Never say 'never.'"
Incredible song….reminds me of my adolescence / youth……. and my mom …aunts.and grandmother….a magnificent era in my life….🙏🙏🙏
I added this music to an Italian holiday video when my family was young and innocent…. Time has gone by and on hearing this it brings tears to my eyes.Lifes journey can be bittersweet.
This song is my most favorite song since I was young last 65 years,and still be in my heart forever.
🤗
Mine too 🇬🇧
yes I do
45 years ago, I was shown by my husband this song. He took us, me and Sofia Vergara to a DDR Restaurant in the area of Solingen, Nordrhein-Westfalen where this piece of art was played softly in the background. I instantly fell in love..
Mine to ,loved the movie too ,we were all young then now 70.
Austrian born composer, Max Steiner captured the American spirit in the 1950s-60s, innocence, hope and confidence in the future. I was 7 in 1959 and am now 70 and this song is perhaps more meaningful now than then.
Yes, the beautiful magic melody with which we all can see, - beyond these present shadowy times -, divine redemption and ethernal happiness.
72 and could not agree more. But you know what, we got to dance to this in Junior H.S. We are the blessed ones. Stay happy .
@@davidwadsworth8982 I truly appreciate your positive attitude
Thank you 😊
@@doriasalmon4790 Very welcome. It is 9 March. At the Jersey Shore summer season starts 2nd weekend in May when the advance guard of summer tourists sneak into town. Same for Sylvan baeh NY,Adirondacks,1000 Islands. Summer is basically 60 days away,
Have you heard Steiner's Waltz from Jezebel from the movie Jezebel (1938) with Bette Davis (and a caste of great character actors like Donald Crisp and Fay Bainter)?
This was the beautiful tune which would emanate from our Plymouth's radio on a Sunday afternoon while driving home from a day spent at some resort. Sixty years ago I'm 70 now). Floods me with nostalgia and appreciation of my solid parents who made sure they pointed me in the right direction to cope well with life
Thank you for sharing! 🤗
I hope we could go back in time we were young and enjoy each moment...all we could just do now is to reminisce the past....
When two people share love and dream together... 😊❤❤
This is an absolutely beautiful song.
2:21min of pure pleasure, joy tenderness and warmth. Euphoria and sadness, music for the heart and soul in perfection here.
A timeless masterpiece it makes me feel so relaxed i just don't have any words to describe that feeling
This song will forever have a special place in my heart...Back in 74-75 I was in the 5th grade, our music teacher Mrs Low would teach us kids as much classics of the past decades, or perhaps the songs that SHE loved, lol. Anyways, whenever she play on the piano ' A Summer Place' she would have me sing lead...At the time I thought 'no big deal I'll do the best I can '. I didn't think much of the song because as a kid you're busy trying to sing it correctly and not miss pronounce the words and such...But later on in life, I have such pride, and felt such honor that she thought my voice was worthy enough to sang lead for this, my all time favorite #1 instrumental ( lyric version too ) EVER.. Those were truly the best time of my life and I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world...Thank you Mrs Low, wherever you are, for instilling the love of instrumentals, beautiful classics, to us kids...Bless your heart..
Thank you for sharing this beautiful story 🤗
Such sweet memories!
The female violinist's glance and smile at 1:35 tells you everything you will ever need to know about the joy of performing beautiful music.
Exatamente,ela expressou naquele olhar toda a harmonia por estar ali!
Yes.
So very true, simply mesmerizing.
She’s living it; she’s loving it.
Well spotted!
I was 6 or 7 years old the first time hearing this lovely song theme...life was very simple and so much easier...Will be in my heart eternally...
This is absolutely one of my favourites it brings back lots of memories from my childhood, It's just beautiful. ♥️❤♥️❤
We are happy to hear that you enjoy it. 😃
Bist du Reich? Das bringt auch in meiner Seite viele erinnerungen ❤. Das hat in einem Restaurant in NRW gespielt❤❤❤❤❤❤ so schön
It was idyllic sitting on the beach listening to this under a beach umbrella by the ocean's roar catching a few rays.., I sure miss those days❤️
The song always reminds me of America in the 60’s, where people spend their time at the beach for relaxation, kids are running on the seaside, and some of them with ice cream or soda.
Que belleza, aplausos!
Love love this , I remember my years then , such a beautiful world back then ! Bravo to this orchestra!
Thank you very much! 🤗
A musician's favorite...look at them smile! Always loved this piece!!
😊
I remember hearing this on my parents' record album, when I was a child. ❤
🥰
I'm celebrating more than 4 decades of listening to this melancholic music. I love the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra version as well.
That's a long time!

Such a sensual and melancholic melody! When I listen to it, I feel the desire for life, flowers, the sea! Wonderful!
Beautifully said, we can only agree:)
Je ne me lasse pas d'écouter cette mélodie. / I never tire of listening to this melody.

Beautiful.
This song was always the lead-in for the 1 O'Clock Movies which had the best monster, bite-'em up action movies I ever saw as a boy. So, hearing this again brought in a lot of great memories for me. Of course the actor's mouths never matched the English voice over track. Love it. Thank-you!
Great--sounding orchestra. As far as i know, this film-theme topped the charts in both UK and US back in 1960. Max Steiner wrote some lovely, melodic music.
Thank you!
We're glad that you like it 🤗
The theme from the movie "A Summer Place" was the 1st movie theme song to reach #1 on the Billboard Top 100 chart and also the first movie theme to sell more than a million copies.
Totally agree with all comments - a beautiful piece of music, my absolute favourite ❤
Thank you! 🥰
OMG.. I just LOVE this song!! Brings back happy childhood memories of my wonderful parents 😢❤
We're glad that we could bring back those memories 🤗
BEAUTIFUL VIOLINS!!
BRINGS BACK SO MANY
PRECIOUS MEMORIES WHEN LIFE WAS SIMPLER!! TQ
Years ago David Symonds presented a show on Radio 2 called Much More Music. This was his theme tune. Absolutely glorious!
A famous theme given a most -pleasing (visibly by the faces of the players) performance - thank you.
Our pleasure!
We're happy to hear that you enjoyed our performance 🤗

Thank you!
We are glad that you like it. That sounds like a lovely memory. 🥰
Beautiful arrangement, love the Percy Faith version as well only this has the beautiful woodwinds of flutes, oboes, clarinets included and there are women in this orchestra compared to Percy’s. Love both versions. In my 60’s now. Warms my heart ❤
Thank you for posting
Thank you for the compliment! We're really glad that you like our performance 🥰
I so much agree, haven`t heard thsi version before but I`m totally touched....It`s fantastic.
John Kennedy in the White House, my parent's new 1962 Ford Fairlane with this song playing on the radio. I was all of 9 years and yet being a future musician myself I was wholly taken by it.
So much beauty. And for once, someone mentions Max Steiner when it comes to this marvelous creation.
Musik zum Träumen , denke an meine liebevollen Eltern , wenn ich diese Musik höre 🙏❤️ immer in meinem Herzen ❤️❤️

Hallo .....💐 Thank you so much💐 My parents used to have a Volkswagen Beetle when I was small 🚗 in those days , my mother would always bring a tape recorder whenever we went on that car. Most likely to visit my grandmother, who lived in another city 120 kilometers away. This is the kind of music that my mother would play in the tape, such a memory 💐
Thank you for sharing this personal memory. We are glad, that you like our music.
In a word, Harmonious. More words, music to my ears. Serene, simple, artistic, beauty that uplifts the soul in wonder.
