Tears, tears of joy. What a beautiful anthem. It warms your soul with ideals of brotherhood, love, peace and harmony. I love the Olympics and all it represents. May we all have amazing games in Paris.
I’ve been listening to this off and on all day. I’m a Special Olympics athlete, have been for 30 years and yesterday got asked to compete in the next world games in Berlin in 2023! I hope that we get this music with live orchestra! That would make the whole trip worth it 🙂.
Good luck to you Joshua. Here's hoping this music is used too! The live orchestra might be a bit of a stretch though. 😉 Hope you reply afterwards and let me/us know how you did. Good Luck!!!
@@StocksIn60Seconds if Williams music lives as long as Beethovens has, then sure. But I feel like right now we’re still too biased because it’s recent,
The absolute finest era of Boston Pops - and for the great JW. His writing was key to my half-century adoration of the French horn and classical music - as both patron and performer. His devotion to global unity seals him as one of the greatest humanitarians of all time. We are all blessed to see, hear and work alongside him. Bravo, maestro!
A sensitive, committed percussionist makes all the difference. The principal drummer isn't just playing his own part with great style and musicality, but he's listening to what's around him closely. Bravo.
I remember Watching the 1984 Olympics in LA and heard this the first time. I still am thrilled to hear it. The IOC should adopt this to open all the Olympic games.
Genio....oido y mente privilegiada....emociona aunque sea viendolo en un pequeño telefono celular....debe ser un gran espectaculo ver en vivo estas obras....
I love this piece and I love watching the composer conduct it. I've played it myself as a piano solo several times. It moves fast. Very "patriotic" type of a song. Awesome performance!
Me too! I'll be 81 in 3 weeks. I'm a very quick learner. Haven't heard this one since the movie came out. Been practicing the 84 Olympics fanfare when I ran into Superman. Dangerous thing to do. Anyway, I sit at the piano and play the themes in 1/2 speed. Now I can try Superman. Thanks!
Wow what an amazing piece!! I love it, you can really imagine the athletes entering the arena with this music. That is very very different from what's coming for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the chosen music doesn't match at all this spirit, without talking of the choreography which looks like a school made dances, too bad, be prepared folks...
simplesmente sensacional... tinha 17 anos na época e acompanhei muito esses jogos olímpicos o tema tocava quando os atletas se dirigiam ao pódio para receber suas medalhas... Saudades
What absolutely beautiful and moving musical masterpiece!! John Williams is truly an American music legend. I've been watching the 2022 Olympic games (from Beijing) for several days and this music has been hauntingly played in the background. BRAVO!! !
4 years of preparation. To finally listen to this song dedicated to you and your hard work gives you the best fucking goosebumps you’ll ever feel in your life....
Subtle, sublime, enthralling, spine-chilling, The build up to the crescendo is full of so many themes, with the strings building so much excitement. Holy wa' from 2:55 on
and the trumpet and horns in the call and respond section toward the end. I was 31 in 1984 and remember crying when this was played during the opening ceremonies. So proud. so full.
2021.. Shout out to the Boston Pops (1987). I was 6 when this was played and I am in AWW as I was then, as I am now. These are the real MVPs. So Proud to be from Beantown.
I write this as the 2021 Summer Olympics are taking place in Tokyo. I hear some elements from "Fanfare for the Common Man" in this piece. It served as good inspiration I'm sure!
The Olympic Fanfare is the first piece of classical music that I ever experienced. Watching the 1992, 1994 and 1996 Olympics left an indelible mark on me and this tune is the central agreement of everything that I like and love about the Olympics
I know John Williams composed this piece for ALL of the Olympian athletes, but this theme, along with the American National Anthem and the Marine Corps Hymn, are some of the only songs that swell my heart with pride of being an American. 🫡🇺🇸
Escuchando música. Tan bella se me viene a la mente. Las olimpiadas de. Atlanta y la preciosa voz. De. Celine. Dion. Interpretando. El poder de los. Sueños
Great performance. Always loved this, the best Olympic theme ever-it can be argued that the 1960 Tokyo theme is up there also, as used by ABC “Wide World Of Sports” theme. I put in the lottery for the LA Olympics tickets in 1984. My choices were Opening ceremony😝or track and field. I got men’s preliminary team fencing in a gymnasium, and Men’s individual sabre finals which was in the Long Beach convention center. 5 trumpet players came out playing the Olympic fanfare on long trumpets( Renaissance trumpets) and was fantastic. We got to see the great U S swordsman Peter Westbrook, take the bronze medal in men’s individual sabre. No other country really wanted to host the Olympics after how they were handled previously with tremendous debt left to the cities that financed the venues. But Peter Ueberroth took over the organization and put on a great Olympics with money left over given to youth sports.
Got to see and hear this in the front row live at the Holly Wood bowl conducted by the man himself! Also, I can't remember where, but I heard that the this music will be played at the upcoming summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

@@petep.2092 Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra.
great!
bs. I was the bearded guy. u were the bald et looking one
I don’t know, but the French horns always sound so amazing in John Williams’ compositions. He just understands how to use them.
Yes my favorite is the Cowboys Overture/Suite but this is a close second in terms of fun especially when the percussionists go at it.
Why he's my favorite composer to play!
Yes, he fully understands how to use them and the orchestra players are really really good..
Somehow he looks like a French horn player.
@@Tmanaz480 well JW, as we all know, is a fantastic jazz pianist.
Tears, tears of joy. What a beautiful anthem. It warms your soul with ideals of brotherhood, love, peace and harmony. I love the Olympics and all it represents. May we all have amazing games in Paris.
I agree with you .... this is whar should be in the olimpic environment.... a whole touch in the heart..
私が初めてオリンピックというものを意識して見たのが、このロス五輪でした。
実は、しばらくこの曲こそが五輪のテーマ曲だと思い込んでいました。
Igual hermano tenía 7años
そして冬季五輪のテーマは1988年カルガリーのwinter games ですね。

One of those rare pieces of music that lifts your soul.
36 years later this is STILL the theme everyone associates with the Olympics.
Yeah it's almost like it was written specifically for the Olympics....
I totally agree!
Not _everyone,_ actually.
@@sidnum: For that set of the Games, yeah, but not originally intended as the theme for every one since then.
最近、この曲が頭の中で鳴り響きます。オリンピックと言ったらヤッパリこの曲ですね❕
this man’s catalogue is insane! star wars. close encounters. the greatest olympic music ever. jaws. sunday night football theme... just incredible.
He’s greater than Beethoven ever was. Change My Mind.
@@StocksIn60Seconds if Williams music lives as long as Beethovens has, then sure. But I feel like right now we’re still too biased because it’s recent,
We might add Superman, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter :)
@@Skumberg74 and E.T. and Jurassic park as well!
カッコイイ😊👍これ以上のOlympicの名曲は無い。毎回Olympicは、この曲で良いです😃
I hope John Williams williams direct this masterpiece again for the 2028 LA Olympics. That's will be epic!
Hopefully he will still be with us 😢
1984, wow, almost 40 years ago. Such a majestic piece and always a treat to see John Williams conducting his own!
2028 Olympic games should use this great theme again for every medal ceremony.
More Like Entire Opening Ceremony and Using Spot and Promo For 2028 Los Angeles
Have John Williams create a new score for the 28 games.
I’ve been hearing this theme since i was a child every 4 years and it never gets old. That’s when you know that you’re listening to a masterpiece.
Never in this man's life has he missed. He is incapable of creating anything but absolute bangers
子供の頃だったけど、このロサンゼルス五輪のテーマ曲が一番好きで印象に残っています。ハリウッド映画音楽の華やかさとドラマチックさがジョン・ウィリアムズらしくて心をつかむ作曲を心得てるようですね。
who better than John Williams to compose and conduct the olympic fanfare? answer: nobody
I hear a lot of Bruckner and Mahler. - Heinz
And he did it twice.
This would also have been a nice tune for the flag parade in The Phantom Menace...
The look on the drummer's face when the brass drops around the three minute mark... dedication at its finest.
airbusman5514 lol what about the cymbal player at the end?

ジョン・ウィリアムズ最高かよ…🥳
years and olimpic games have passed. this still stands as the most iconic and beautiful fanfare of them all. Mr williams nailed it as usual
The old man in the drums...Boy is he getting down with the beat props to him. Hope he hasn't passed. Great drums!
His name is Fred Buda. He was still alive as of about a year ago.
@@mattrismatt Sad of course as this was in 84. Hell, I was barely walking in 84. Great performance by the Fred. Hope his family knows he was awesome.
He just passed in Dec. RIP
I thought he might be Buddy Rich at first. What a performance!
I never knew John Williams wrote this. Simply amazing
for the 1984 LA Games
It is definitely in his style, but I somehow didn’t know right away.
@@worldssmallestfan its those twinkly sounds that made it instantly recognisable
Jamas lo olvidaré tenía 13 años y mi papá me despertó de madrugada para verlo Fue increíble mis primeras olimpiadas Que bonito. gracias Papa
Williams' closing the final note looks like he just cut the bad guy in half with his light saber! Truly an amazing piece, and an amazingly gifted man.
I love this piece and I love watching the composer conduct it. I've played it myself as a piano solo several times. It moves fast. Very "patriotic" type of a song. Awesome performance!

Being a composer doesn't guarantee that you'll be a good conductor, but John can definitely do both.
The Maestro....no other way to say it. John Williams and his music forever!
スコーンと伸びて来るトランペットのHigh Cがたまらん！！
懐かしいです。神奈川県民ホールで生で聞きました。鳥肌ビンビンでした
最高に美しい曲‼️
Happy 90th birthday, maestro
Yeah john Williams probably had perfect rehearsals cause nobody wanted to miss a note cause well,, its freaking john Williams..
Brano fantastico.

Ladies and Gentlemen, .......... John Williams.
I write this as the 2021 Summer Olympics are taking place in Tokyo. I hear some elements from "Fanfare for the Common Man" in this piece. It served as good inspiration I'm sure!
I hope that future Generations will venerate John Williams in the same way we do Mozart and Beethoven
FANTASTICO...SUBLIME
And there’s something so wonderful about seeing the Maestro conducting his own. Thanks for the post! Olympics starting Feb 3!!
I love this. Anything by Joh Williams is great. Introduced in 1984 as the Los Angeles Olympics Theme, it has continued on!
Magnífico
Very beatiful!
Debería ser el himno de todas las olipiedasmundiales!
Love this guy on the snare drum😅
C'est très beau, j'adore
Another Olympiad, another reason to listen to this masterpiece
Same here. Had to look this music up. 😁
I just love this! So noble

Would it hurt to show the low brass section for a second or two while they pump out that incredible sound near the beginning? That aside, great video!
As a low brass player myself...no one wants to see that
@@andrx074 well I would. Bass trombone and tuba are very powerful. The bass lines change the harmony here. C, C/F, C/D, C. Gorgeous!
