I worked on this film in North Carolina in 1991. This soundtrack still speaks to me and takes me back to that amazing experience. Thanks for offering such an incredible rendition. Absolutely beautiful
Chimney Rock, Lake James, The Biltmore Estate, Asheville ... so many beautiful places were featured. It was a life changing time working on this one. @@sirtango1
This brings back so many memories of years gone by and my grandmother on her farm. She would sing in the early morning and again in the afternoon and again in the evening. Every day she would do this she told me that the spirits love music and if you sing to them every day. They will give you a beautiful crop in your field and garden. They had a 160 acre homestead. And it made them a very good living. When my uncle sold the property. The people who bought it couldn't get anything to grow on the land.
@@harridan. They did , they are buried on this land. And the acer where they are buried there is a small spring and this part wasn't part of the sale. We go and take care of the mowing and trimming and when I'm there I still sing the same songs my grandmother did. And fill up a few 5 gallon jugs of spring water.
@@ghostofcpast8893 it's also scientifically proven that people who deliberately stomp on another person's beautiful concepts and memories have no kindness or generosity of spirit within themselves. those people should never have children.
You are lucky to have a father who took you to the movie; I hope you cherish every bit of it and the culmination of the music, and when they acknowledge why they had to kill the elk, they are thankful for him.
This is why women of value used to learn music. This is the way to melt men's hearts. A very evocative piece right up there with adagio for strings. Thank you.
And that is why a 4 string quartet is my favourite. They can sing triumphant and glorious, and then drag you down into the depths of sorrow like no other instrument group.
Four women, four bows and sixteen strings to fill a world with beautiful sound. One of the most memorable pieces of music made whole in the 20th century, made even greater by this small tremendously talented group!
@@stevegrieve9511 Dutch, German, English, French settlers vs French Army + Algonquin + Ojibwe & friends which were fighting the British + Iroquois + Mohawk & friends with Hessian mercenaries thrown into the mix... Sounds like a bit more of a round robin than "fighting their own."
I've listened to about four versions of this song and I like this one the best. It has something of an epic feeling to it. My complements to the musicians and the composer of this wonderful music piece.
The original version of this moved me enough to immediately buy the soundtrack. This version is equally stunning. Trivia: While living in Michigan I met the granddaughter of The Great Sachem, the old and wise tribal leader.
You are very talented. And in real life this .movie about the French and Indian war took place right where we live. Mountains of new york and Pennsylvania. There are Pennsylvania long rifles kept by my neighbors that were used . The brought back out again to fight the British in the revolution.. love of America and patriotism runs soul deep here. God bless
"The Gael" is a celebrated piece of music composed by Scottish singer-songwriter Dougie MacLean. Initially created in 1990, it was commissioned for the Loch Ness Visitor Centre. However, its fame skyrocketed when it was adapted by composer Trevor Jones as the main theme for the 1992 film The Last of the Mohicans. It's not called "the kiss", but these ladies perform it beautifully
I have always loved this particular piece of music since "Last of the Mohicans" first came out. You have done a magnificent job of recreating this piece with just the 4 of you. Excellent and beautiful work!!
For some reason, they changed the ending when the DVD came out. I liked the VCR version much better, although it is still an awesome movie & soundtrack!
Thank you for doing this piece. I've always found this movie's score so beautiful and haunting. Not only does it convey the emotions during the movie, but it always demonstrates, to me, what has been lost in nature. All those woods were cut down; my country used to be mostly woods from the eastern seaboard to the plains. I'm of Scots-Irish ancestry (maybe another reason why this music moves me?) from the Appalachians and of native descent (Mohawk and Cherokee). I've watched this a few times now, and when you realize that the artists love the piece of music and appreciate it just as much as you do, it's powerful. So it is sort of a gift to all. I'd be lying if I didn't say I am quite smitten by the lead violinist. Like the former Celtic Woman violinist. I can play tuba, baritone, trombone, and trumpet, yet the hardest is the trombone due to the positioning, which is so different. I also play the electric guitar, mainly because I'm a metalhead.
Oh how quickly I fell in love with these enchanting women. First time I ever saw or heard this. I remember how much I used to love playing my Djembe with a cellist & violinist. This song is absolutely beautiful. Thank you!!!
I have loved the theme since it first came out and to hear those lovely ladies playing strings like that makes a shiver down my spine absolutely beautiful
This is my favorite song from a soundtrack. I used to listen to the soundtrack on CD everynight from 1992 to around 1995 until my ex-wife got sick of it. You did an amazing job!
Damn, I haven't seen that movie in years. I am old enough to have watched it when it first came out. It got me into reading The Deerslayer as a teenager 😂 and after that I was obsessed with strings music 😂 like my Spotify is filled with David Garrett and 2CELLOS, always happy to discover a new strings group!
Gorgeous music - gorgeous ladies! (I'm pretty sure you must be angels😇) Makes me think of the scene where Nathaniel, Uncas and Chingachgook were running up the waterfall/cliff to rescue Cora and Alice. One of my very favorite movies, and this piece by EFFE was stunning....Nice work!!❤
This reaches deep within and triggers great waves of emotion that well up in great sobs. It is a cathartic release of trapped emotion due to old trauma. Why some music triggers this I do not know.
I'm a reenactor for 35 years and have done many ceremonies at the watery grave site and at ceremonial headstones in Staten Island placed by Shaw's family and at Saint-Gaurden's monument in Boston. The most heartwarming event i ever did was in Pearl River, NY, where I met RGS' greatgrand niece. If you look in that woman's face, you can see Robert. She is the spitting image. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
There are some pieces that are so brilliantly written that if you close your eyes you can almost see them tell a story while you listen. This is one of those songs, but it takes talented musicians to know the story and be able to make their instruments sing it to you. We could strip the poetry and art out of the idea and say that they call it 'musicality' in the business and there are technically ways to do it, but I prefer to let the art sing and weave its tale. Thank you for a beautiful interpretation of the song!
Очень красиво! Красивая музыка! Спасибо Богу, за таланты! Что есть такие музыканты. Без слов и танцев сил даёт Идти вперёд на встречу счастью! Когда грустишь, в душе ненастье.
This movie had it all: music, cinematography, actors, history, romance, action. Perfect in every way.
And bad sound. Stupid Director was using a new sound system made it hard to hear the movie.
Yup , one of my favorite movies !
Why it outlaws in public education 😎
Still one of my favorites! Started watching in high school when it came out.
It’s my favorite of my top 5
"He is Uncas, my son...welcome him." Absolute masterpiece of a movie.
😢
Makes me cry each time.
I worked on this film in North Carolina in 1991. This soundtrack still speaks to me and takes me back to that amazing experience. Thanks for offering such an incredible rendition. Absolutely beautiful
Thank you🧡
Chimney rock? At least it looked like a place in the park anyway. Been a long time since I was there.
Lucky you !!! What a great classic movie. You must be proud.
No matter what job you did, well done its a wonderful film
Chimney Rock, Lake James, The Biltmore Estate, Asheville ... so many beautiful places were featured. It was a life changing time working on this one. @@sirtango1
This is one of the greatest pieces of music ever written.
I believe it was written by a Scottish guy.
Well who ever wrote it it is one great piece of music.
@@someoneelse.2252it’s called the Gael by Dougie MacLean
@@sonofculloden2 ; thanks.
@@someoneelse.2252 Dougie macklean.
Beautiful talented women playing an iconic emotional masterpiece.
How can anyone not be touched by this.
plural.
I surely am! Wow!
natural backdrop, 4 beautiful women and a masterpiece - just brilliant
I think this is one the most beautiful pieces of music ever composed 😌
These girls know what they are doing...one of the most beautiful songs ever written!!
I had goosebumps the second that cello kicked in
This brings back so many memories of years gone by and my grandmother on her farm. She would sing in the early morning and again in the afternoon and again in the evening.

that's beautiful. they loved the land and it loved them back
@@harridan.
They did , they are buried on this land. And the acer where they are buried there is a small spring and this part wasn't part of the sale. We go and take care of the mowing and trimming and when I'm there I still sing the same songs my grandmother did. And fill up a few 5 gallon jugs of spring water.
@@aricchio7222 that's beautiful
It's actually the plants that react to music not spirits. It's scientificly proven
@@ghostofcpast8893 it's also scientifically proven that people who deliberately stomp on another person's beautiful concepts and memories have no kindness or generosity of spirit within themselves. those people should never have children.
This was the first "grown-up" movie my dad took me to see. This music always takes me back and this version is beautiful!
You are lucky to have a father who took you to the movie; I hope you cherish every bit of it and the culmination of the music, and when they acknowledge why they had to kill the elk, they are thankful for him.
No matter how bad my day is going I can listen to this and find peace 😌
me too. Greetings from Italy.
This is why women of value used to learn music. This is the way to melt men's hearts. A very evocative piece right up there with adagio for strings. Thank you.
It suddenly brings back the flashes of images from the movie like a gushing waterfall and makes me cry !
The best cover of this masterpiece I've seen. The sounds. The scenery. The beauty.
Makes my hair stand up on end. Love the movie, soundtrack and this performance.
And that is why a 4 string quartet is my favourite. They can sing triumphant and glorious, and then drag you down into the depths of sorrow like no other instrument group.
Others call this piece "The Gael".
Indeed, you are simply right !
That's because it is
Written by Dougie Maclean
That’s how I know it. I’d love to learn to play it some day
@@stewartjackson5483Love Dougie Maclean
This movie was visually stunning! And the soundtrack is one of if not the most powerfully beautiful works I have ever heard.
I saw this movie in the theater as a kid with my grandmother and loved it but your music....I'm wiping tears ladies....well done
Just amazingly done. I was in the film as it was set near my hometown. Since I had long hair, I was cast as an English and French soldier.
Four women, four bows and sixteen strings to fill a world with beautiful sound. One of the most memorable pieces of music made whole in the 20th century, made even greater by this small tremendously talented group!
Chills, goosebumps, misty eyes all at once - can't explain why
This is an all time classic film.
Soundtrack is unbelievable and will be played for centuries beyond my lifetime 👌👌
A haunting, mesmerizing, beautiful music that transports one to a higher plane of wonder.
A song of freedom, fire, and rebellion. Dedicated to the memory of those who defeated the greatest empire the World had ever seen. Twice.
Fighting there own
@@stevegrieve9511 Dutch, German, English, French settlers vs French Army + Algonquin + Ojibwe & friends which were fighting the British + Iroquois + Mohawk & friends with Hessian mercenaries thrown into the mix... Sounds like a bit more of a round robin than "fighting their own."
Yeah, we told them to kiss the area where "sun not shine"
The greatest empire to exist was the Mongol empire, in terms of land expanse and reach.
I've listened to about four versions of this song and I like this one the best.
It has something of an epic feeling to it.
My complements to the musicians and the composer of this wonderful music piece.
Thank you!!
It does. This version feels very big and full. But there's something I love about the scratchy de-tuned instrument in the OST recording
The original version of this moved me enough to immediately buy the soundtrack. This version is equally stunning. Trivia: While living in Michigan I met the granddaughter of The Great Sachem, the old and wise tribal leader.
The DVD I brought had the soundtrack separate if required.
Eu tmb . Assisti ao filme, saí do cinema, atravessei a praça de alimentação do shopping center e comprei o CD.
I also. But it was a tape that I bought@@robertofaustinohibener842
Beauty in the form of music. Always produces goosebumps.
Love the movie, the soundtrack is the best movie soundtrack ever. Great job.

Haunting and moving...i watch this movie. " Last of The Mohicans", everytime its on tv..stirs the soul...thank u for this rendition..
You're all amazing but the Cellist and her addition to the composition was mind blowing at times.
Awesome stuff !
The music stands alone as a masterpiece. As a soundtrack to The Last of the Mohicans it is made legendary.
I have always loved this particular piece of music since "Last of the Mohicans" first came out. You have done a magnificent job of recreating this piece with just the 4 of you. Excellent and beautiful work!!
Thank you!
Four beautiful ladies playing a beautiful melody beautifully, thanks.
Everytime I think of that movie this music comes to mind. Fit the setting perfectly. Incredible piece.
I consider this to be the most moving piece of music ever composed. The instruments tell a story better than any lyrics.
I can't imagine ever getting tired of new and well done covers of that song. Beautiful!
Beautiful rendition. Perfectly played and the visuals just add to the magic. Thank you for sharing your art.
Thank you🧡
Beautifull, played so beautifully.
Absolutely loved this movie and this song... Thank you so much for posting it.
Watch this movie. You will remember the music for the rest of your life.
Yes, always!
For some reason, they changed the ending when the DVD came out. I liked the VCR version much better, although it is still an awesome movie & soundtrack!
Beautifully done ladies!!
Still one of the best scores ever, riveting rendition. If I could say more, I would. Bravo!

Haunting! It pulls the Gaelic right out of my soul! My grandmother from Donegal would’ve loved this melody! I love you Grammy!
Beautifully done
The best music I' ve ever heard ,never be old
Probably the finest sound track , best story, and excellent acting in a movie for the last 40 years
Damn, I haven't seen that movie in years. I am old enough to have watched it when it first came out. It got me into reading The Deerslayer as a teenager 😂 and after that I was obsessed with strings music 😂 like my Spotify is filled with David Garrett and 2CELLOS, always happy to discover a new strings group!
Thank you so much!
PERFECTION

Thank you:)
One of the most memorable & haunting pieces of music ever written & played. A classic.
Absolutely breathtaking rendition of a beautiful song! Performed by a quartet at gorgeous ladies! Thank you for your practice and devotion!
Thank you!!
One of the best films I’ve seen, ever.
Just the first few notes are amazing!
Beautiful.
Beautiful woman playing a beautiful song. They could lure me into the rocks.
I've had The Kiss on my phone ringtone for 32 years and will continue until the day I die.
You did so great job. Love this song. Greetings from Poland, Marry Christmass my sisters and friends, this performance is best i ever heard
Beautiful rendition, people. Keep up the good work!
This reaches deep within and triggers great waves of emotion that well up in great sobs. It is a cathartic release of trapped emotion due to old trauma. Why some music triggers this I do not know.
I listen to this quite often, good job ladies such talent and beauty!!!!
This really gets to me, this version. Absolutely beautiful 😍😍
Tune always gives me strength, thank you 😊

Amazing song and amazing spot! Love It!
Got goosebumps first time I ever heard, and still do. To me it invokes pure passion.
