I am a freshman and we just did this in band for the spring concert. My teacher is awesome- i thought i would never be able to play it. (Tenor sax) This was one of my favorite songs performed.

Viennese brass playing is the most warm and sonorous of all. I love all these Vienna Brass, Vienna Horns, Art of Brass, and Wiener Waldhorn Verein posts. It is the SOUL that they have in their performances. Bravo All!

I wonder if there is anyone who would disagree that John Williams is the greatest composer of this generation? Or that he can hold his own with the greatest of all time? The sheer volume of work by Mr. Williams is incredible. That so much is so good is a feat that seems impossible.

Many veterans hearing this will have many memories returning to mind, and are probably holding back, or not holding back, tears...

In war when a fellow warrior is struck down, one feels the shock of seeing a human being wasted. Time slows then, for emotions to catch up with reality. To me, this music portrays that person feeling the changing emotions within themselves in a somber reality of what they witnessed and felt. Magnify that by over 1,000,000 times for Americas Fallen because of war, War is hell! Beautiful, inspiring moments in this music to think about all those, worldwide, that have fallen in battle. Thank you, Mr. Williams, for you had to have felt what so many in battle have felt also, and their loved ones after a funeral. Then magnify that too for all those others in the world also lost because of war and battles. War IS hell, along with misery, loneliness and many sacrifices.

Wow! I really enjoyed this! Thank you for the magnificent post. There is a way to play an instrument, and there is a way to play from the soul. This piece was played from the soul.

John Williams! Thank You!

One of the most gorgeous of his works.....

very nice song!!

Wow, this is absolutely awesome!

Wunderschön gespielt und auch der Chor ist toll! Ganz großen Respekt, dieses Stück ist hochanspruchsvoll!

Played a solo in this song last year. About broke my teeth from how high the octave was.

I could listen to this all night! Was there ever a more moving piece of music?

Don't forget the rendition with videos of all the cemeteries around the world.

The fallen, the buried, the grieved.

Nice performance, well balanced with the choir.
