You can say what u want about the movies... good or bad... John Williams never let us down not one bit. An absolute musical legend
No just idiots like JJ and Ryan
Where was the music?
his music did all of the heavy lifting in the prequels
@@dayglowjoe And in postlogie? Where was the music?
@@bernardlolot6446 Rey's theme, resistance's theme, the music on achto, we go together, a new home... A lot of theme are beautiful in the sequel
The only thing never failed about all star wars movies is John Williams
Except the end of episode 2
Are you kidding? ‘Across the Stars’ conclusion? It’s one of the best!
308328928 The battle of geonosis and end titles theme were amazing. Especially when the imperial march evolved into across the stars
TROS soundtrack was pretty bad xD
@@julianweinert8456 how
John's back must be so sore from carrying the entire Star Wars franchise.
Kalle Vuolteenaho Its a wonder how his back hasn’t colapsed....since carrying the sequels...
Literally A New Hope is unwatchable without him, I’m not even joking
just an overused copied comment
Danbo 22 a new hope is one of the best ones. How is it even close to unwatchable
@@amarson2322 every film wouldn't be that good without him
My hero
Samuel Kim Music same
Our hero
I love your music man
John Williams is my career idle.
Now just what are you doing here? You’re supposed to be making my army’s epic suite!

Lyle Cleethorpes V I’m sorry to hear you have covid-19
Bravo!
Him and YOU baby!!! 🥰
@@deniseallisonstout1901 Thanks, darling! May the Force be with You!
John Williams' superlative music turned a cheeseball outer-space western in to one of the greatest hollywood blockbuster franchises of them all. He is Star Wars, pretty much.
I assume superlative is a good word because I don't know what it means.
If were talking about the greatest Hollywood blockbuster franchises then #1 would go to the MCU and #2 would be Star Wars at #3. This list is based off world wide box office grosses.
@@Fitchy-ke3wz Yeah, superlative means something like "the best" or "above others", so yeah, it's a good word.
Ivan Marquez Star wars is and always will be more popular than marvel movies. I hate the new star wars though.
It's George Lucas vision of western in space turned cheesy music by John Williams to be loved by many.
That emperor theme. Chills. And so sad when Mark is listening to the Leia theme.
i feel the same
Palpatine's Sith theme is the call and seduction of the dark side

"What a privilege is that". He single handedly composed the best film score of all time, yet he sees it as a privilege. Such humility... what a great man. I owe him so much
I was working a concert at Tanglewood (and he’ll come to compose sometimes) and I bumped into him and *he* apologized first, he’s such a nice man
@@cameronsweener1620
That's extraordinary. Thanks for sharing that tidbit
@@cameronsweener1620 I was at Tanglewood and saw him perform TWICE!!! Truly the best experience of my life.
Seeing marks face when they played Leia’s theme made me so sorry for him

timestamp?
MrHamncheez
8:57
It’s like losing an actual sister
@@MrHamncheez Definitely after she passed away. She died before they started any filming for Ep. 9, and soundtrack recording sessions are among the last things to get added to a movie before first screenings.
Star Wars wouldn’t be the same without his music.
Kevin Kiner could continue his legacy.
he's ded
It wouldn’t be Star Wars
Michael Giacchino could be the next.
@@thedoctor2871 or John Powell
We remember Mozart, Bach or Beethoven...
And everyone will remember Williams.
Spielberg considers him among them. When he asked Williams to score Schindler's List, Williams responded that surely there were other composers that could do justice to the film to which Spielberg replied, "There are but they're all dead."
@@slayr399 yes we all know that story but I can guarantee we will all talk about him like we do with classical and baroque music
Williams can become zimmer's shadow
@@brianmahogany3216 is this a joke?
You guys do realize there are more than just beethoven mozart and bach?? His music is actually bot the similar to theres and almost not at all to bach. Gustav holst would be a more apt comparison.

❤️ ️WE WANT A JOHN WILLIAMS ACTION FIGURE! ❤️
Yes
@@s.l.thecoffeeaddict1657 😁👍
YES!
DAVE FOX heck the dead Han figure
John Williams figure is where it’s at
I probably won't admit it. But I will. However if there was an action figure. I ain't opening and it'll cost an fortune.
The Force doesn’t hold the universe together. John Williams does.
💯
I was getting worried that John Williams may not be around too much longer to compose great scores, then I see this and he still looks bursting with energy and very capable. Age truly is just a number. Looking forward to his next score.
They need to convince him to do Indy 5 - if they ever make it.
Honestly if Indy 5 is ever made I could see that being the last film he composes.
Gage Brumley I believe Episode IX was the last movie he composes for. He’s retiring.
He will write and conduct until his health prevents it. The force is strong within him.
@@draketurcotte4760 He's still slated to compose for Indy 5. As long as they don't take another ten years to make that movie Williams should still compose for that. He has just said he's no longer going to compose for Star Wars movies. I'm sure we'll hear his epic music for a while yet.
4:10 Oh Daisy, she's about to burst into tears. Can you blame her. Imagine John Williams playing your theme to you.
I really wish they would have done better with her character. She's such an amazing actress.
John Williams said Rey's theme is one of his favorite themes he's ever written. He's even released a collaboration album with a famous violinist and one of the songs was Rey's theme rearranged for the album.
it should have been called ..Star Wars - The Rise of John Williams
Definitely the music was better compared to TLJ.
But John Williams is always epic
Luis Morais “The Rise of John Williams’ Baton”
He might be 88 years old, but hes sharp as a tack.
Yes he is!
I’d say sharper...
Composing music for nine movies, three trilogies, over the span of 42 years. DAMN
And while he was at it, he also did the music for Jaws, Superman, E.T., Poltergeist, all of the Indiana Jones movies, Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan, and more.
@@starwarsrebel2006 You're right about all of them, except one ... the music from Poltergeist was by Jerry Goldsmith. But you could just replace it with Jurassic Park! ☺
Majestic!
And years before all of this, when he was a young man, he composed the music for the 1960s TV series, Lost in Space. His name is in the credits as Johnny Williams.
@@starwarsrebel2006 dont forget Harry potter!
Mark said everything with his face when they were playing Leia’s theme. He must miss her a lot.
Good grammar is sexy.
I miss her a lot. I can't imagine what one of her best friends goes through every day. :(
@1:14 I love JJ’s reaction here! I would totally feel like a kid again in this moment.
We all feel like a kid again. 💯
Seeing JJ Abrams and Mark Hamill both tearing up when Willaims plays Leia's theme is both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Also, Spielberg there supporting both JJ and John is so wholesome.
Sidious’s theme is so underrated, way better than the imperial march, which is the propaganda theme, Sidious’s theme is the true evil unlimited power theme, and everybody knows it.
A composer's baton is mightier than a thousand lightsabers.
BIG STATMENT .....LOVED IT
More correctly, HIS baton is ..
The fact that after God knows how many times I've watched these films, played the games, listened to the books and I still get a big grin when I hear the first few bars of the Star Wars theme is a testament to how legendary this man's talent is.
The fact that I'm 54 years old and feel exactly the way I did when I was 10 years old in 1977 and saw Star Wars for the first time is also a testament to how legendary this man's talent is.
@@starwarsrebel2006 I was 6 at the time, and feel the same as you
I was five years old in 1977. My (much) older brothers took me to see A New Hope when it was just called "Star Wars."
When it was over one of my brothers asked me what I liked best about it.
Five-year-old me replied "The music."
And I've been obsessed with the music of the movies ever since.
Yes. That film looked as if the film was set to the music. The music was the true narrative arc.
I was 11 and recall coming out of the cinema blown away by the whole experience. I did not realise then how much the score meant to the film. Pure genius.
similar story with me. my neighbors showed me a new hope when i was about 6. i love it, but the music left me floored. i had no idea until then how much i could like music...
Star Wars without John Williams would not be Star Wars
Say what you want. But that evolution at 9:57 is beautiful
i wish they put something from rotj overall it’s great it’s shows us how far we’ve become in star wars 👏
It devastated me
@@tommymalyvanh7876 The Emperor’s theme from ROTJ was revisited in this film. It sounds awesome!!
Did you ever hear of John Williams the Maestro? John Williams is a Maestro Lord so powerful and so wise, he can pen down a world renowned music score with a single thought. He had such a knowledge of composing that he could even make people cry listening to his music. John Williams' music is a pathway to many feelings some consider to be emotional.
Baron William is it possible to learn this power?
@@anthonymanuel55000 not from disney
He’s like “I can do this with my eyes closed”
Extremely profesional
Star Wars music: love or hate the movies, one thing we can all agree on is that John Williams will always be the KING.
It's good to be da King-Mel Brooks.
No.. He is THE GOD!!
Williams must be canonized as the best composer in the universe
If the world was filled with John Williams the world would be a better place.
If the world was filled with only one same person, no matter what person it is, the world would be a disaster !
(Sorry for my English tho, I'm not english speaker)
Xavier Dolin true. The idea is that if the people were more like John Williams, the world would be a better place.
No bro, then he wouldn’t be so special...
The whole world and life itself would be an unending symphony.
John Williams is such a mastermind in Star Wars. He's truly a Jedi Master when it comes to music. Even if you liked or not the sequels, you can't deny that they have an outstanding soundtrack as always. May the Force be with you, always, old friend. We are truly grateful for everything you have done for our beloved saga.
To be honest, the scores to 7-9 were rather mediocre, recycling large chunks of his earlier work.
Little wonder given how uninspired the films were.
@@fundhund62 and how is that? Just because Kylo Ren's and Rey's theme are inspired by The Emperor's doesn't mean most of it is. It was still amazing regardless.
7:06 The way that John talks and treats Mark melts my heart. He treats him as if he were still the young man he met a long time ago. Thats just amazing.
The one shot with Mark crying listening to Leia's theme hits hard... :(
John Williams is the reason I am a violinist.
The last great ‘classical’ composer whose work is accessible to the public. When he is gone, no more
4:15 J.J. listens to the master of the Force him self and whispers "genius" I can't even begin to imagine watching John Williams in the midst of his magic!
I know people who collect the actors' autographs, seek stuff like Alec Guiness signed posters, etc. The best piece of Star Wars memorabilia I could ever have is just meeting John and getting an autograph or a pic. This guy is a genius
John Williams is the best composer of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
8:04. This was my favourite moment from episode 9 hands down and it was entirely based on the music. My heart swelled when I heard it and saw Luke finally lift the x-wing out of the water just as Yoda had done.
Agreed. The way John Williams was able to reinterpret his music for these parallels in Episode 9 was absolutely amazing.
Remember those band geeks in school??? John Williams orchestra he assembled are the very best of them!
7:23 - "How many scenes have we scored with this guy in it"? Aaaaaand I'm an 8-year-old boy again...
😉 I think Williams scored more scenes with Harrison Ford ! (StarWars + Indiana Jones)
6:20 holy crap, they cut this thing close.
@Stratowind agreed. Even though I would have preferred a May release date, but I unfortunately understand why they didn't.
Usually scores are the last thing to be completed because of any changes in picture lock such as last minute additions or subtractions to the film.
Thank you God for giving us John Williams
What a genius this is a record of human achievement for all time.
Leia’s theme is genuinely one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard, it gives me chills every single time
John Williams is a national treasure
HE IS A WORLD' S TREASURE !!!!
PITY HE IS NOT IMMORTAL !!!!

A Note to you John Williams naysayers: First off, NO ONE can replace him. Who says so? His 52 Academy Award nominations and 5 oscars. ONLY Walt Disney has more at 59 nominations. He has been composing for 70s years for movies and television and has more experience than any movie composer living and dead. Sure, someone can start writing in his place when he stops but no one will match his accomplishments. I am always amazed at the jealousy and desire to belittle his work. I think most real musicians recognize his amazing and unmatched talent but some still feel the need to say something negative.
an absolute legend
Just remember this might be the last time that John Williams ever composes a film!
So I'm going to say this before it's too late,..........to John Williams, The Sound of Cinema!
I met Mr. Willams on the set of the tv show psych, he is a wonderful man!
YOU ARE A LUCKY ONE !!!!
GOD ......HOW I ENVY YOU !!!!
I would love him to just score music and we all make the movie in our own heads.
6:45 That seems to be a different version of the scene on his monitor there. But I’m not gonna dwell on deleted scenes and alternate cuts... John Williams is a damn genius, and that’s an understatement. It’s heartbreaking that we’ll never hear him in a galaxy far, far away again.
The little screen. It seems she deflects it like a blast rather than constant pressure.
John Williams is the only person who never disappointed me in Star Wars.
John Williams is not the glue that holds the saga together, he is the warm hug that makes you feel good and brings it all home. He obviously loves all the films and that’s good enough for me.
Of all the comments I read, this is the One!
When I watch the sequel trilogy i did not understand how the music was not bad at all, actually was the best ... Mr Williams is a true master
I'm legit going to cry when he passes from this world
Don' t even remember me he is a mortal man.
I allways wished he was immortal !
Love how John calls Mark "Uncle Lu"... such a friendship between two wonderful people
It will be a sad, sad day in music when he passes. I hope he lives forever.
John Williams conjures up so much emotion to any scene. His music is the magic dust of movies.
Best composer of the last 6 decades.
In a college composition and theory class in the early 1980s my professor, himself an accomplished composer, told us that the closing score for Close Encounters of the Third Kind was one of the greatest, if not the greatest, orchestral composition of the 20th century. I think he was right.
And the works of this Master have proved time and time again that he is genius.
I agree with you. The music Maestro Williams made for the end credits of Close Encounters is so overwelming and full of beauty that in the very first exibition in Rio the Janeiro all the audience stayed till it ended and then applauded for about 5 minutes. I know cause I was there applauding too.
@@siegfriedkleinmartins7816 your reply led me to rewatch this again after a year. Thanking the musicians for the opportunity to record with them again. What a great man.
I have to say, out of all the new themes of this trilogy, Rey's theme was my favorite. It was so whimsical, adventurous and everything that you would expect from her character.
This damn smile when he hears the first part of the main theme! It always gets me...
A world without star wars is hard to comprehend. There will never be better movies than these.
Love the way Spielberg said
This is so historic John.
I love that after all these years Steven Spielberg comes to show his respects on what possibly might be John Williams’ final score for Star Wars.
When Steven Spielberg and Mark Hamill come to YOUR rehearsal, you know you're a living legend
1977 to 2019
42 years
9 movies
1 constant remained
John Williams
Tears, feels 😍😍😍❤❤❤
One saga, 9 films, only one composer: JOHN WILLIAMS ❤
It breaks my heart to see all my heros getting older, but I'm proud to have seen it all, from part one to the latest one.. Thanks you all..
After time I even appreciate more this movie. I know it's difficult to be liked after such predecessors but this movie is brilliant.
I’ve said it before, but this man is the unifying thread of all the saga. There would be no Star Wars without his genius.
U can’t have any of the Star Wars movies without John Williams magic touch. My god I cried even watching the rise of skywalker. Thank you Maestro.
The success of Star Wars is three fold : 1/3 the story and the universe, 1/3 all the actors and their talent and 1/3 John Williams and the entire score. Together, they made history!
There's no Star Wars without his music!!! GOAT
Some years ago I paid my respects at the funeral of a young man who died in tragic circumstances: the final piece of music was John Williams' theme from Star Wars. The sister of the young man told me he had such happy memories of going to see the movie as a child.
Leia’s theme is one of the most beautiful themes in all of cinema. It’s warm, heartfelt, sad and grand all at the same time. Every time I hear it I cry. Thank you Mr. Williams. Thank you Carrie Fisher. We miss and love you.
I agree. That and the Force Theme.
When this legend dies, life will change... I’m sad I’ll never be able to meet him...
The link to all 9 movies (besides the droids!) is this man's music! Confession time: I saw TROS in a theater in the afternoon...hardly anyone there. And YES during the end credits I (1) began to hum along and (2) got tears in my eyes as I realized that this was IT. The last one he will write. 9 films over 41 years.....an achievement that will never be matched.
I watched Rise of Skywalker on IMAX, everyone left during the credits, and only me and my husband stood until the very last moment because I wanted to hear the music in those amazing speakers
@@rafaelasabchucalovato9439 For God's sake....John William's last Star Wars score! ....Folks must have really hated the ending to rush out! Nowadays most of the composer's work is for the End Credits so I tend to stay late anyway....but this one was truly special.
Reys theme is still stunning
There aren't enough superlatives to describe John Williams and his music
That main theme......
I still remember when i saw this in the theater back in the day. People don't get how much it blew minds and nothing since have made people pull back in the seat like that then.
Oh John... your music is so legendary and it has inspired me for so long, please... PLEASE be safe and healthy!
exactly how a world best finishes the job - with love, thanks and humility 💕
Doesn't matter how much you love or hate the sequels, the way John Williams talks about is just amazing.
John Williams must be the chosen one who really does feel the force.
5:30 - 5:58 WOW, the evil theme really changed into a heroic theme with a change of harmonic support and so on. Amazing lol
i cant explain the level of nostalgia i have when i hear his music
He’s a modern day maestro, we all are lucky to have lived when he did, to see his amazing genius come to life.
The greatest musician of our generation
9 movies. From the 1970s to 2019. And he did them all. Created magic for every single one of them. Never missed a beat. He stated that TRoS was going the be the last Star Wars movie he composed for. He continued this journey thru 3 trilogies and it’s sad to see he won’t be creating anymore Star Wars music. But what he leaves behind will never be forgotten. He’s done an excellent service to movie music. My hero
The day we lose John Williams will be the pause in time for a whole generation. Impossible to say how important his work is for all of us: God bless him all his days 🙌
George once said the secret sauce of sw is John he puts 50% of the magic in star wars
What a gentleman.
John Williams makes pictures into epic movies. The guy is a complete legend from my childhood.
God why is John Williams soooo damn sweet. Please pleaseeeee stay with us forever
