- The impressive 'prelude' and 'parade of the charioteers' by composer Miklós Rózsa from the 1959 movie Ben-Hur. Wonderfully performed live by the John Wilson Orchestra at the 2013 BBC Proms in the Royal Albert Hall in London. No better orchestra in the world to do this!

Ben Hur is the best movie of all times!!!!
Over 60 years and it's still one of the greatest movies of all time.
It IS the Greatest movie of all time!
Absolutely
Ben Hur is one of the best original soundtrack of all times.
Charlton Heston, God has chosen you to play such spectacular roles in both Ben Hur and 10 commandments. May your soul RIP.
Amen brother you can say that again 🙏 I'm totally with you on that 👍👍😊
He was also in Planet of the Apes, Omega Man and oh yes Soylent Green (It's people).
❤
……not only a superb actor across MANY differing roles’, but also a lovely man, married to his Univ sweetheart Lydia for 64years’…………
Ben Hur : The Best movie ever. I always cry … because it’s was my father’s favorite movie… He passed away in 2020…
Ben Hur is forever my favorite movie; my father took me to see it as a child and I have always cherished it.
As a child every Easter week I couldn’t wait for Ben Hur to air. Love it.
We watch this movie every Good Friday. It is amazing and moves me each viewing.
This movie score is the greatest of all times, for Ben Hur
I will watch Ben Hur JUST to listen to the music. Brilliant, moving, desriptive words do not exist.
One of the longest film scores ever composed, over three hours of music.
It should be listened complete, a monumental achievement.
Even more important than the superb music is what the film represents....and what Christ accomplished for us.
@@mikem6251 Mike, Ben Hur is a great story, but a story it is. The Christ story just that, most likely invented by the Romans to counter the messianic aspirations of the Jews. It is impossible to believe the Judeo-Christian story of creation and Ben Hur should be appreciated for the art it is.
@@casualobserver485 Thank you for your comment. With all due respect, it is true that the Ben Hur story/character is fiction, and taken from a novel by Lew Wallace, but the Christian faith is real, and Christ was factually the Messiah, Son of God, and Redeemer of the human race from the sin that had beset it since the fall of Adam and Eve. God has offered us, as a free gift, redemption for our sins through Christ, God Himself made incarnate in human form, and it is up to us to accept and live accordingly. Unfortunately, too many people don't.
I have never gotten tired of watching the movie Ben Hur.
I always breakdown in the scene when Esther is at the Valleys of the Lepers and Judah's mother asks her, "Is Judah well? Is he happy". 😭
Of course very true
Very powerfull scene with awesome performances by every actor.
Part of it was the quality in the mother's (Martha Scott) voice.
Absolutely, I get a lump in my throat on that part, also when Judah lifts his dying sister into his arms. At the very end, when Judah ascends the stairs to embrace his healed and restored mother and sister, along with the glorious accompanying music, I always start weeping tears of joy, just so moved by the power and majesty of the epic I've just witnessed. My favorite movie of all time, without a doubt. It just happend to be right at the beginning on the TV at an important stage of my life, at a time when I needed the message it contains. It has also helped me through some real struggles, and I seem to get something different out of it each time. My wife bought me a nice print of the "The Creation of Adam" portion of the Sistine Chapel, shown in the opening credits for our bedroom wall.
@@TaeeshNENE agree with you it is great movie
Judah Ben-Hur: Almost at the moment He died, I heard Him say, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do."
Esther: Even then.
Judah Ben-Hur: Even then. And I felt His voice take the sword out of my hand.
Best movie and musical score ever!
Goosebumps !
My dads (86 yrs old) favourite movie...my most intense remembering is when i was 12 yrs old (in 1976) and watch BEN HUR with him at the evening in the biggest Cinema in our town...i love you dad.
Miklos Rosza is in 50~60 years greatest cinema music composer in Holywood BenHur, King of Kings, El cid..
That’s beautiful
Everything in that movie were a masterpiece. I've seen 10 or 20 times that movie and never bored.
1959 Ben-Hur is the best movie of all times
Along with 10 commandments
I absolutely agree!
From a Director, acting, script, and music standpoint, I agree!
What a classic!!!!
👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Tout à fait d’accord, Sir!
My fav movie of all time - love this 😍
Thank you Lew Wallace for writing Ben Hur, thank you William Wyler for making it a movie, thank you Miklos Rozsa for composing this epic masterpiece !
Thanks also to the talented cast members.👍
Merci aussi à la métro goldwyn Mayer de nous avoir donné autant de grands moments de cinéma avec les plus grands films de tous les temps, Ben Hur, autant en emporte le vent, le roi des rois et bien d'autres la liste est longue !.
God bless their souls.🙏🙏🙏
Big thank you to the wonderful cast of the film who all made it so memorable. Loved it since first seeing it at the local picture theatre in 1960.
@@charliejohn1 Haya Harareet passed within the last year, so all the main cast members are gone now.
Masterpiece by Sir Miklos! 👏
Miklós Rózsa with Ben-Hur composed one of the finest most beautiful music scores for the screen.. So well done here!
absolutely love how John Wilson adheres to the original arrangements from movies. he does honor to the great composers and films.
The beautiful movie and music all the times
I hear this and I see the film in my mind.

Absolutely, Epic, Incredibly Phenomenon al Movies and Sound track!!!!!!! (777) Praise God, Praise, Jesus Christ ..♡♡
The music tune takes us through history and to the actual scenes in the mind, I saw the film 100 times and talks about love, leadership and sacrifice.
NUMBER ONE ! ... TOP OF TOPS ! ... MASTERPIECE ! ... HISTORY, SEQUENCE, VISUAL AND SOUND QUALIT, SPETACULAR MUSIC THEME, PERFECT IN ALL ASPECTS ...
You could FEEL the love from the Orchestra as they performed The GREATEST MASTERPIECE of All time!
As a young lad of about ten my Mum and Dad took me to Leicester Square when the film premiered. It had a lasting effect on me and I still consider it one of the greatest films I’ve ever seen.
What can be said about the greatest movie ever made, and music theme thank you all astonishing, amazing thank you Mr Rozsa.
The parade of the chariots is one of the most spectacular pieces of music composed for film. Awe inspiring.
My father worked at MGM as a tailor during that Era and I still remember when he brought the record home and we played it on the Grundig stereo we had. I've never forgotten how that music made me feel
Thanks for Miklos Rozsa
The most FABULOUS FILM ever seen.
The most SUPERB MUSIC for all times.
One of the best renditions of any soundtrack I've heard.
Fabulous music tears are rolling down my eyes
WOW - what a great orchestra !!! The music from Ben-Hur is unsurpassed in the history of Hollywood.
You can listen to the whole concert "Hollywood Rhapsody Prom" . Top right in the list.
CDB8939 You may not as it has been removed because of copyright infringement.
jslasher1 The copyright claim probably was for only one or two of the themes performed, which caused the whole video to be banned. For that reason alone it is better to post the numbers separately. I myself had that problem before with a video that at some point contained the Star Wars theme, which I found to be a big no-no.
Too many great film to scores to say this one is unsurpassed. Yes, it's truly excellent, but so are many of Maurice Jarre's compositions for David Lean, Elmer Bernstein's Great Escape and several of John Williams' themes to name but a few . Some film scores are today's classics IMHO.

I am Turkish and I like this performance so much ,thank you Rózsa Miklós for impressive song
BEN HUR Y SU MUSICA SON UNA OBRA DE ARTE, Y LA PELICULA ES MONUMENTAL LA MEJOR DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS....🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Well I have never heard this piece player live , and they did it magnificently, to say is was Awesome is a gross understatement. wow!
What a joy and a treat it must be for an orchestra to play this enthralling music! They all seem to live this music with their soul and body.
A masterpiece in all his forms. This is Ben-Hur...
It's the greatest movie ever to bring back a magnificent story in your head just by listening to music! !!
His soundtrack for King of Kings also had that same effect on me.
Love EVERYTHING about the Ben-Hur motion picture. I recall the premier like it was yesterday!
LA MEJOR PELÍCULA DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS.. ABSOLUTAMENTE 😢
One of the best movie sound tracts ever made!
What a moving and impressive piece! One of my favorite movies of all time.
Chuck is my favourite actor ever and of course Ben Hur stands alone...
The soundtrack just absolutely kills me every time i listen to it, it just eats away at you !!!!
Beautifully done and the music Beautifully made. Ben hurr is greatest movie of all time.
Saw this film around 1960 but never really appreciate the musical score involved cause we were young. Now we realized the beauty of this epic version. Simply love it.
Nunca me cansaré de oír este hermoso tema musical , lo oiré una y otra vez .
Gracias por difundirlo .
Every single orchestra member playing with passion! Superb presentation!
The movie BEN HUR moved me deeply in so many ways;especially with the introduction of
the saviour and his willingness to give water to Ben Hur when he was so parched by having to walk through the heat of the desert.
Michael McGill ...I know this Man..He gave me a will to live.. what has He done to merit this?...
The encounter between Ben Hur and the Christ is indeed so powerful and most definitely it touches your soul.
Easily the most powerful scene in the entire movie !!!
Loved how the Ben-Hur storyline wrapped around The Tale of the Christ. Through strange twists of Fate...
What a first rate performance filled with shining Herculean intensity and power!
This is the kind of epic music that influenced the return of symphonic music in John William's Star Wars and Superman. Rozsa's Roman march and the Roman galley score are also outstanding. Even after so many years, the scene of Ben Hur forced to hide from his leprous mother and sister yet hear them asked Esther how he is still chokes me up.
Spectacular epic piece! Gives me chills each time. Ben Hur one of the greatest films and film score of all time thus far! Miklos was a genius!
i'm crying buckets listening to this magnificent, spiritual music of a man coming out of a dark place into one of healing--thank you for posting!!
windstorm1000 I wish I could give you 1000 thumb's up...for now I am that man....
I still get goose bumps every time I hear this....magnificent!!
Hello from Canada. This is beyond magnificent. It is sublime. The composer, by creating such important work, has lived a purposeful life. It is a legacy for the generations.
NO music exist from Roman times. However, Miklós Rózsa meticulous research
and his musical genius left us this unique masterpiece.
this is THEE best theme music of all all time and the best film of all time so emotional, including west side story, thank you John wilson this is amazing
The best music score !!! Viva Ben-Hur !!!
This is the best rendition of that score I've heard so far.
One of the best movies EVER made!
Nunca me cansaré de verla. Lo mejor para Nuestro Señor!!
One of the greatest movie moments of all time...
Christ rises to face a hardened Roman legionnaire, the man is instantly convicted, confused, and stunned that any unarmed man could command such respect by a look.
Turns away and then turns back for an instant, still unbelieving, confused by the power he has just witnessed.
The director, the script, the actor playing the soldier brought together a moment in movie history I will never forget!
fsbirdhouse me too. the most powerful scene in the movie for me and moved me every time I see it
I know this Man He gave me a will to live... what has He done to merit this?...
The actor that played the soldier, was not an actor by trade . William Wyler, just found him around set. Thought he looked the part. Great direction.
YOU!!! I SAID NO WATER FOR HIM!
I'm not a religious person but have to admit that scene floors me every time.
An unforgettable score. I love Rosza's compositions. For me, Ben-Hur, and El Cid are his best scores and are among the best in the history of the cinema.
Agree, but I also include the score from Spellbound as one of this greatest achievements
And King of Kings
I agree.

@@franciscoluelmo We should not forget Ivanhoe. Splendid
This masterpiece of cinematic orchestration is beyond compare. Full of pride and glory. Incredibly powerful and moving.
Ben Hur is one of the best 3 films of all times.
What are the other two?
Is the best film of all time
@@charliejohn1 Lawrence of Arabia probably another
El cid
Incredible music from an incredible film, thank you!
I love the conductor's enthusiasm. Great performance!
¡¡¡Se me eriza la piel, que película señores, que película!!!.. ¡¡¡Y que música!!!
BEN HUR: ABSOLUTELY
MAGNIFICENT!!! OMNIPOTENT AND ROMANTIC!!
SPECTACULAR!!!! MOVIE!!!
ALL EMPIRES RISE, AND FALL. THE MIGHTY ROMAN EMPIRE FELL, AS
ALL EMPIRES DO!!! THIS MUSIC REMINDS ME IF THE ROMAN EMPIRE THAT WAS GLORIOUS AT
ONE TIME!!!
TQ IMMENSELY!!! ❤❤❤
Ben Hur and El Cid-two of the maestro's masterpieces from the later period of his career!
One of the greatest scores ever for one of the best films ever made imo.

I love seeing ben hur when i was 9 years old its a favorite movie and ten commandments. Story of ruth. Greatest story ever told too
Han pasado más de 60 años y Ben-Hur sigue siendo una auténtica obra de arte del cine. No en vano fue la primera producción en ganar 11 Oscares
9

Es que es un relato de Cristo.
Sin duda, Ben Hur es una gran lección de arte y calidad para el Hollywood de ahora.
@@marielavargas4657 11 Oscars!!!
Ben Hur as a movie epic, was a complete package. The unbelievable overture sets you in the mood to watch a great movie from the very first frame.
Bring back memories of the movie. Beautifuly orchestrated. It feels like you're watching the movie. Sounds exactly the same. One of my favorite movies ever and the theme is my favorite part
BEN HUR ES UNA PELÍCULA MAGISTRAL ,CON UNA BAMBA SONORA MARAVILLOSA, LA HE VISTO MUCHO Y SEGUIRÉ VIENDOLA ,LOS ACTORES BUENÍSIMO, SOBRE TODO CHALTON HESTON.👏👏👏
Seguimos viendo tan espectacular film,con grandes actores y un fondo musical impresionante en cada escena !!!
one of the best hollywood film music ever known ! i love !
Loving the music already, this brought me to tears, seeing the orchestra so passionate about this music from the greatest film ever made.
you are absolutely right the greatest movie of all time. unmatched by any cinematic movie i have seen
If you can you must see Orchestra's in person; way more intense and moving than TH-cam
It was so heart warming to read that someone else was also brought to tears just listening to this classic symphony music. The movie itself remains a true classic even after so many years. Lots of love from the Holy Land.
I'm was crying while reading your post.😥
Saw this epic of a film when I was eleven, went with my mum. Happy times made me cry. X
As the years go on, I believe we have lost all those involved with Ben-Hur. They made a film of majesty that will live forever! RIP to Haya Harareet (2021) and all of them!!
What a great music and what a great orchestra . Well done the musicians you scratch it . For me 10 out of 10 .
Oh, takes my breath away!! Beyond magnificent!! What a composer!
..hearing this score, l swear l could hear the mighty Roman Legions approaching our backyard..
That was my impression as a 10- year old when I first saw the movie BenHur..6 decades ago.
Ben Hur meeting Jesus Christ gave me an everlasting impression that we will All meet Jesus Christ 🙏 at the end of our lives to give an accounting.. hopefully, the same music will be playing as we meet Him..
I love this film. I been watching film since 1968. am 71 now brilliant!!
Always brings a tear to my eye, musical orchestration
perfection at its zenith
I must have watched this a dozen times. it STILL gives me goose bumps.
000 ditto
God Bless Miklós Rózsa.
Greatest movie composer
The real MAESTRO.
凄いスケールだった。
Amen
@@billdutnall5311 That's Williams.
Timeless music.. this movie is 60 years old and still holds its own. Well made on both ends in sight and sound. Thanks for posting this score.
Una cinta increíble que nunca me canso de mirar...Ben Hur y la música de la Sinfónica, te hace rememorar sentimientos encontrados.
When i was 10 or twelve years old ( mid 70s) Ben Hur was showing in the biggest cinema in our town (you know, one of the big Theatres with two balkony etc, from the 50s or so) and because its my dads favourite movie we going there to see the movie. It was in the evening, incl intermission ...i never forget that evening in my life. Fun fact: Especially for to see this movie again with my Dad on Eastern this year i bought a 65 " flat screen 4 K TV. I love you dad.
Your story is lovely. To have seen (and listened to) the roadshow print of Ben-Hur is a memory you'll keep until your last day.
Its unique image quality was achieved by the amazingly sharp MGM Camera 65, which had an enormous size and was equivalent to the SuperPanavision 70mm format popular during the Sixties.
The Camera 65 tested successfully on MGMs 'Raintree County' (1957), and therefore the studio decided to use it for Ben-Hur.
Such a phenomenal sharpness is best appreciated in the 50th Anniversary Blu-ray Edition (in the Valley of the Lepers first scene diminutive lizards are clearly seen running on the rocks, downwards right).
It's worthwhile to check the only available (I believe) image of MGMs Camera 65 on IMDb, took by my mother while on location in Rome.
She was an extra, one of the posh Roman ladies seated beside Pilate when Ben-Hur is crowned ''as their God''.
Ben-hur, simplesmente magnífico!
The amount of physical exertion required to produce this music is amazing
Im speechless with awe and delight. This has to be one of the greatest film scores ever. And John Wilson and his orchestra are superb! Gave me a huge lift. Thank you.
What a beautiful, this song, this classic movie, it is worth remembering forever ...
Q hermosa melodia!! Para una de las mejores películas de todos los tiempos Ben Hur....
Juda Ben Hur...la pelicula que me marcó para siempre..me lloro de emoción al escuchar esta banda sonora...la verdad me.siento en esa epoca en el coliseo romano...
Huge fan of the John Wilson orchestra. Can’t get enough!
