In this video i play the theme from the soundtrack of the movie: "Schindler's list".
Its a piece beautifully composed by the legendary John Williams and played by Ithzak Perlman, one of the greatest violinists of his time, who inspired me to play it for you.
I played this piece for the first time when i was 13 and it still has a great impact on me after all these years. There couldnt have been a better score composed for this movie. The movie is great on its own but without the score by John Williams i really doubt it would have had such a lasting impact amongst all the other great movies dealing with the tragedy of WW2.
The moment in the movie i remember the most, when you hear this theme, is when Schindler is handed the letter and a ring with the inscription:
"He who saves one life saves the world entire"
...moments before leaving his factory realizing what little a human life meant in the time of the regime. _A mere trinket on his jacket would have meant, one more. _
That scene is pure emotion. (And the way he picks up the ring, when he drops it accidentally)
Like it means the world to him.
Ugh, dont cry Marica, dont cry... 😢
..lalalalalalalalalala...On to something else i want to say... Wheres the transition button when you need it?

I have been really busy this week so i couldnt make this in time for Week 74 but i really wanted to get this out there as soon as possible and give a little shout out to the folks from the discord channel:C-m(S) aka Classical-music(Steemit) mostly posting under the #classical-music tag here on Steemit.
(Couldnt find a bigger arrow 😂)
These guys make really great stuff and really work hard, so i would like to encourage everyone to go and give them some love.
Maybe invite them to a beer and some nachos. 😂
Anyways, i hope did the theme justice.
Oh, and if you enjoy this video, and it gets a positive enough reaction i might do a series of popular themes from movies or even video games. (Some amazing stuff there as well)
Feel free to drop your suggestions in the comments and ill see you later.
Keep on Steeming! 😁
Bye bye

Yes, we are really a specialist Baroque Early music orchestra. So for us, the top hits are Vivaldi Four Seasons and Pachelbel Canon.

It is incredible what u can do with a simple theme. Williams is the man :) For me the best part was the synthesis from 1:50 till the end. Thank you for your performance!

Williams as i said is a legend. Its actually one of my dreams to work on a legit movie score. It wont happen but one can dream. 😁

I love this particular piece of work :) The melody is so heart-breaking, not elaborate but at the same time really conveying emotions.

Yeah its very straight forward. The theme itself is probably lower intermediate level to play but it really doesnt need to be any more complicated to convey the feeling. And thats the beauty and brilliance of John Williams.

Yeah, that movie is something spectacular. One of those movies where I didn't think about the camera and acting and scenery... I was simply wrapped in human story and feelings and... damn allergies... amazing movie.

Allergies left and right. My brother cried to this as well. He never cries. We were all concerned for him. Told him he should go see a doctor. 😂

Yeah, exactly, if you leave allergies unattended, who knows what can happen. When I consulted my doctor, he suggested Rocky IV and a beer. It helped ;)

Wow @silentscreamer that was beautifully played the whole dramatic emotion covering the whole range of just simply brilliant. I never seen the film I just stopped by because the violin is a beautiful instrument when played with such talent. My mothers husband makes electric violins and also plays at concerts so I am sharing your link to him because I know how much he would appreciate to hear your talent. I am also a musician alto saxophonist and vocalist but you may be the first instrumentalist who I have heard in openmic with a backing track so thank you for sharing you have inspired there, your talent is awesome! :)

Well you should drop by SMA if you arent already there. Great community and they will give out a reward to the 400th member. Who knows, you might be it.
It was really hard to find the backing track, although the theme is popular.
I actually own a pink electric violin someone gave me as gift. Its very ugly and low quality but you can do some fun stuff with it.. 😂
You should watch the movie. Its praised a lot but the praise just doesnt do it justice. 😁

I really wanted to pick something modern that is well known so its closer to the general public and a sort of a slow introduction into the classical world. The visibility i get from OpenMic i think will help a lot. @silviagoh had a great entry for last weeks openmic and a Curie so hopefully we will be seeing more entries every week. 😁

That's great - I love how many genres are represented in open mic. I've been toying with the idea of trying to find another singer here and doing a short and fun duet - like maybe the Duetto buffo di due gatti (or something of that similar silliness). I've been battling flu though so not much singing has been happening this week!! We'll see!

Absolutely beautiful and graceful. I am a big fan of the movie and especially what Stephen Spielberg did with the money after the movie. He took that money and spent time video-documenting personal tales of Survivors, and helped the growth of The Shoah Foundation.
As a musician I love this. I am always impressed at how any musical piece can be played with such precision, while still adding the musicians personal style and feeling to it as well. Thank you for posting this, sincerely!
