This man is amazing in every single aspect of him. Humanity at its best.
He has charisma and that is sorely missed in many new actors.
That's because a lot of the new and young actors are exactly that. They are young, hungry, and have more of an ego. It's part of being young.
Wisdom and humility often come with age.
Mr. Hopkins. Your waltz is beautiful but thank you for going in to acting.
Well as a listener of classic music, i really wish he could have remained in music composing even though i like him as an actor, But music composing and classic music is a world of its own, i think he would have been very successful
Thefreethinker John : Well as a composer of concert music, the field is not very kind and had Mr. Hopkins gone into classical music composition, we probably would never would have heard of him. How many contemporary composers can you name? Do you the know the composer in residence at any of the major US orchestras? Or the last winner of the Pulitzer Prize?
Mr. Hopkins had potential, but I am truly grateful that he went in to acting.
Marc Parella it is not about becoming a name, rather should it be the legacy you leave behind, something for your generation and maybe the world to enjoy. As much as I love flicks, music is a universal language, understood by all living creatures and when this language becomes a true art, it will never go out of fashion.
Yes it is about becoming a name.
@@thefreethinkerjohn4013i totally agree he could give more beautiful classics ❤
Sir Anthony Hopkins, your waltz proves what a great composer you are ! ...
One of the finest pieces of music I have heard to this day. I am absolutely impressed. The combination of the genius of Andre Rieu and Sir Anthony Hopkins has created a brilliant, artistic and beautiful musical experience.
his piece is cute, however, you definitely haven't heart much music to this day...
EmperorMato Actually I have, and I will thank you not to draw assumptions about me, as you do not know me.
The main theme of this waltz, reminds me of the intro instrumental theme of lead song of the classic Russian movie war drama "The Cranes Are Flying (1957)"
Totally agree ❤
This refers to earlier comment I made
Hi Anthony, love your music and piano playing, be well, may God watch over you and your family!
This is amazing to me because it is so difficult to do a waltz. Happy he found Reiu, two great artists have made a stupendous wonderful peace of music for us. Blessings!!! Huzzahs!
Thankyou for your wonderful music. Later and later We have this special opportunity to share the music and compose it with André Rieu we like and adore him a lot. This music was fantastic and amazing. André is special the best in the world. He is a respectable and stunning man together with his Orchestra. His son is also very special in his performance to me and the world ❤❤❤🎉❤❤❤
I heard this tune a while ago!!! Shame on me that I didnt know he wrote it!!! Well done!!! A knight in all its meaning!!! A true gentleman that exceeds in all he does!!! My favorite actor by far =)
Most of us knew sir Anthony Hopkins is one of the legendary actor in the world, some of us knew he is a great music lover and composer. But few knew he is also an excellent painter. What a gift.
A true gentleman and a beautiful Human being. Thank you Sir Anthony
Anthony Hopkins. What a man. So modest and such a lovely sweet personality. 💙
Anthony Hokins, you have thrilled me with your absolutely magnificent waltz!!
Played in Silence of the Lambs. About 16 minutes on screen. Got an Oscar for that.
Only Sir Anthony Hopkins could pull that off.
Really a great man and wonderful actor... really enjoyed the waltz , many blessings Anthony Hopkins...
Amazing! His legacy will someday now be for some of the scariest work and some of the most beautiful work ever done. What contrast!
'The Bounty' is one of my favorite all-time movies, I absolutely adore Sir Anthony.
It's always amazing to be able to experience an other person's passion that you were unaware of.
God Bless him. Great actor and great person. best choice
Very beautiful and from one of my favorite actor played by the best of the best Andre Rieu !!!
A lot can be learned from his humility and grace. Cheers, kind sir!
His Waltz is simply amazing like his acting skills.
Mr Hopkins u are genius and your music fantasic, awesome, amazing, spectacular!... It is my favorite waltz ...Thank You !
The whole piece is AMAZING but that ending...gaaah hair stood up on my arms and I loooooooved it!
Superb !!! So pleased I have met and known him!
What an amazing Waltz what a multi-skilled artist! Great to see that he worked with André Rieu.!
I dread to think how many more of such wonderful pieces of music lay still somewhere in the drawers around the world... suffering from their authors' shyness to come out with it...
What a nice man. His Waltz is just beautiful.
I would love to hear Mirusia sing "I dreamed a dream". I listen to your orchestra and Mirusia every morning and I can't stop from crying when she sings "Over the Rainbow". If I had the money I would travel to Europe to see your performance and maybe try to see them ALL. This song written by Anthony Hopkins was done so beautifully... well everything you play is outstanding. I had a dream many, many years ago which was to tour Europe. Holy cow what beautiful things to see, but my life has killed my dream. GBY all for giving so much beauty to this world. It helps us forget for a little while all the horrors going on world-wide.
I enjoyed Mr. Anthony Hopkins' movies before knowing that he was also a composer of one of my favorite Waltz musics. Great Waltz!
Belated congratulations to Mr. Anthony Hopkins still count. Right?? 🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊
Anthony is a class act. And a legend :)
The young Anthony Hopkins looks a lot like ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov. Anthony is an amazing composer!
Isabella A Rossellini I hadn't thought of that, but now that you point it out, I totally agree! Great observation.
Such a beautiful piece of music.
A marvelous performance in 'Silence . . . '. We r blessed to have him.
‘Music for the Gods’ is the stuff of music which is beyond words - yes, it is a language of its own only the ‘soul’ can hear. This Waltz by Anthony Hopkins does that. . . It is music worthy of the orchestra of Heaven as it reaches to heights many composers have not reached even in an entire lifetime. He is WORTHY of the name COMPOSER as one of his best and important accomplishments. This music will live on for generations to come and shall pass the test of time well beyond our mortal lives. . .
I could listen to this piece for hours, along with Dr. Ford from Ramin Djawadi.
Wonderful Sir Anthony, that your dream comes true! And lets be honest: only André can make your dream come true!And the Waltz and good life goes on...vive la vie ! Tomorrow is mystery, Yesterday is history, but what I saw Today is a gift ! Thank you. Xxx Dutch girl named Ada de Laive
I wish You a king life full of succes mr.Hopkins..
Оба великих достойны уважения и восхищения! Браво МАЭСТРО АНДРЕ и СЭР ХОПКИНС 👋👋👋❤️❤️❤️

Dois génios.
Maestro André Rieu e Sir Antonny Hopkins.
Maravilhosa valsa.

Wonderful
What a sweet, honest, and humble man. Hollywood could take a lesson.
Amen, watching his reaction as he watched the orchestra made my heart melt.
Why just Hollywood?
@@andrewm8063 These are qualities that a large amount of actors need to learn
I can see his beautiful soul.
Caro André, as músicas de qualquer "composer" ficam mais lindas com você. Parabens ! Parabéns Anthony Hopkins;
Gave me "goose" good goose bumps!

Потрясающе! Два великих таланта!
LINDO MAGNIFICA OBRA DESTE GIGANTE ATOR..QUE TANTO CONTRIBUI ..AO CINEMA MUNDIAL...OBRIGADO SENHOR ANTONY HOPKINGS ...THANKS..
I'm an audiologist- call me the sound doctor :).. I clinically deal with individuals with hearing and balance disorders, but I have a passion for music and have always had an "ear" for music, would love to compose something someday. maybe with the great Sir Anthony Hopkins & Andre Rieu?? just kidding. but seriously. one can dream, right? ...
I had a dream about sir Anthony Hopkins playing the piano in my house. It was so pleasant I was upset that my alarm rang 😢
Can not find the words for this.
Very cinematic music,
Beautiful 🌹
fantastic muziek good for the soul.
Me ha encantado muchisimo.
Esta llena de emociones y alegria y a la vez recuerda momentos difíciles de la vida.
Um grande senhor
... I cannot help to picture him as a James Bond villain, even in his years...
it was magical and so sad.
Anthony Hopkins his my favorite Actor .I ❤❤.Anthony Hopkins .I wis a chid to have with him .why not .is a brilliant men .😍😍😍😍
2018 immortalize your music
Merry Christmas Andre and the team. Love this video. Could you do another Christmas DVD like this one. Christmas brings out all the emotions in people. Thankyou for all the pleasures you have brought to me and millions of others, especially the old folks.
Muhteşem...Muhteşem...Meleklerle dans ediyormuş gibi hissettiriyor insan...
Hopkins composed the score for his independent film, August, from 1996. Check it out if you want to hear more of his music.
Bravo !
I do find it quite the shame that most people only associate Hopkins with Hannibal Lector.
not a bad thing to be associated with if you ask me. Its one of the most iconic acting performances ever
He is a man of many talents for sure, but there is nothing wrong with associating Hopkins with Hannibal Lector. He performed the character in such a way that it became iconic in film history. What's the shame in that?
Fafnir Totally agree. His portfolio of work certainly transcends that...
I actually associate him more with Charles Morse, the intellectual publishing billionaire who lives in the world of books got lost in the woods, and stuck a spear through Bart the Bear, himself.
It bothers me that I am only finding out about this talent of his now....this video is 2 years old and I only learned about his "And the Waltz Goes On" just a few days ago through Facebook!! Arg! I love it!! Have we heard it in a movie? It sounds familiar! I am thinking I would have heard it in a movie like Anna Karenina (Keira Knightley)!
yeah, I know the feeling of finding things almost too late in one's life
At least if I ever get married, I won't have missed out on playing it during the reception and maybe coaxing my groom into practicing a beautiful waltz with me! ;)
Buen dia andre dios te ilumine cariño sol ser de luz y amor tu carita esta trste te amo luz bendiciones ser de ñuz y amor hermoss conciertos magicos tu te veo truiste arriva yo te protejo dios tambien sosi amor gracias te amo
Great!

***DOES ANYONE GET WHY PEOPLE WOULD HAVE REASON TO THUMB DOWN THIS? HAHAHA! I AM JUST AMAZED HOW TROLLING AND HATE FILLED UGLY PEOPLE CAN BE OR ASPIRE. I HAVE LISTENED TO THIS PIECE AND IT IS EMOTIONALLY DELIGHTFUL! WRITE MORE ANDRE' AND SIR ANTHONY HOPKINS!! PLEASE! GBU!*** and I of Metal prominence hear its beauty!
ESTI FORMIDABIL,FELICITARI.
SARBATORI FERICITE ALATURI DE CEI DRAGI TIE,
ELENA
I can't Speak biggest surpise André Rieu 🙏
You were always my favourite actor! And now this amazing music! I have a waltz for you that now only two people on this earth have heard. I have the rough music the lyrics but so far have not done anything with it. If you can check out my two medieveal songs (both waltzes).
Yo admiro todo tu trabajo Sir Anthony...pero admiro más tu calidad como persona.
50 yıl sonra idealinin gerçekleşmesi,mükemmel bir şey !!
All the great composers in history have been in their own way melancholy
SANTA FOR HIRE!
Muito bom.
Ten days before I was born.
here is a bit of trivia for u, the original spartacus anthony hopkins lent his voice to one of the segments in the restrored film, laurence olivier had died and anthony hopkins sounded a bit like him so he filled in the lost sound for the film, its the bit where tony curtis is attending him in the roman bath and they are talking about oysters. i have to say i cant tell the difference between the two.
My fiancé and I want to dance to this for our first dance
collision of two giants !!
Sir Anthony Hopkins you little you! You are talking to a Sir!
👍🎶🎻❤️👍🌹
