“Across the Stars” - Anne-Sophie Mutter and John Williams (Trailer)

[@nikotakai8796]

Love that she appreciates Across The Stars.

[@thebostonpops]

Our very own John Williams! We love the video!

[@mattbynumfilms]

I listened to the original Star Wars vinyl record so many times as a child. It’s good to hear that Anne-Sophie thinks highly of the music of John Williams.

[@iviepizolli]

Anne-Sophie, it's just impossible not to love you!! 💕

[@markoharamija4945]

Such a great team-up, too bad there are so few such examples today. Thank you very much John and Anne for this legendary CD.

[@rolfyhh.8059]

You both are so sweet.......and many many thanks for all the Pleasure you create for all of us.

[@AlipashaSadri]

I was grinning like a kid for the entire length of the video! Two of my favorite musicians that I never thought would work together!! :D

[@rolandh4947]

Sooo schön wie John Williams entzückt war von Anne-Sophie‘s liebevollem Händedrücken am Ende des Videos🥰

[@jamesfagan4072]

I wish more of these tracks appeared on the live Bluray of the Vienna concert.

[@climbers100]

After 12 hours of work I asked Alexa to turn off the system, she started playing Across the Stars” at a very low volume, I started to pay attention because I heard a woman singing a very beautiful opera, I asked Alexa to turn up the volume, then I found out that it was a violin, after researching I discovered that it was you and your violin. Your work is fantastic, good health, long life!

[@mariabanholzer5960]

Wonderfull, divine!!!!! Thank you merci danke❤️💐🌹🌻🏵️🌺☀️💖🌼🌟🍀🙏🌸

[@fredericwu6427]

People on the street don't recognise at all the most excellent violoniste today on the world...

[@herrlogan17]

Best Star Wars trailer in years :)

[@maurosau68]

Simply amazing collaboration, loved William's music from 1978 with Star Wars, love your view to play music with your "magic" violin, thanks!!! :)

[@raffaelecaltagirone]

Splendida Anne❤️………quanta umiltà Maestro Williams😍

[@rr7firefly]

As related in her NPR interview recently, Anne-Sophie was able to have her ex-husband (and still friend) Andre Previn intercede for her with John Williams to make this project possible. It seems that even at this level of artistic celebrity it helps to have a personal connection. We music lovers are most happy this could be arranged.

[@rr7firefly]

@Annie-Sophie Mutter I am the one who should thank YOU for the wonderful music that you bring to the world. You deserve every accolade that comes to you. Thanks.

[@rr7firefly]

@Annie-Sophie Mutter For the past few years I have been living/working in San Antonio and Austin. Before that, it was San Francisco and Berkeley.

[@tequilexrook]

it's so cute how they compliment each other :)

[@max8591]

Wow... he just "forgot the piece"... How incredible must a guy be to write something like that and then just forget about it..

[@fatsilentbob]

I was going to same the same thing, one of my favorite pieces.

[@MehdiD.Ardebili]

What a wonderful collaboration!

[@paulofernandes9134]

Princess Leia rendition you did together is a piece of art! Danke!

[@starwarsunfiltered7848]

It was only this morning that I heard Anne-Marie's rendition of "Yoda's Theme" on KUSC...appropriately enough while I was reading my Star Wars book. Thank you so much for this beautiful music. And for John Williams, a living legend who has brought me countless years of joy from all of his scores.

[@vincentsaia6545]

John Williams is my hero!

[@theempire00]

No words.... Amazing

[@jamesnasium4035]

John Williams is the GOAT, but he waves off the applause...

[@johnny12022]

Anne Sophie is trying to wave him over so the audience can cheer him, but he turns to the orchestra instead so she can get the applause

[@steven4217]

Iconic

[@liedersanger1]

Where was the outdoor concert? Tanglewood?

[@Camop-iz9kt]

The Sony recording stage is the legendary MGM recording stage. Awesome wide shot at 2:33. If those walls could talk!

[@Camop-iz9kt]

@Annie-Sophie Mutter I recently bought the Vienna concert blu-ray. Stunning in every way!

[@Camop-iz9kt]

@Annie-Sophie Mutter Oklahoma City

[@Camop-iz9kt]

@Annie-Sophie Mutter Not sure how to do that...

[@GreyWind]

Here you see a real master a real man with real artistry and kindness, a real genius. Not some cowardly inarticulate so-called composer what’s his name.

[@TRO100459]

I Love It!!!🎻🤭👍

[@katherine7860]

So elegant!

[@JeanDeLaCroix_]

Someone knows what is the theme played at the begining of the video (12 first seconds) ?

[@alejandro52612]

Reys theme

[@Agonymous]

What the hell, he forgot the best star wars song. damn it. :D

[@jimcameron1234]

Wow finally a German celebrity woman from our country Germany that can speak very good english unlike other German exports celebrities such as Til Schweiger..... schöne Grüße aus München und servus.

[@franziskakre8309]

Til Schweiger cant speak at all. Its hard to understand him too when he speaks German.

[@mohammedakram4529]

Fiddler on the stage !!

[@bagofchips8813]

(¬ ͜ʖ¬)

[@andrenewcomb3708]

She must have good neck muscles to hold on to that violin while doing all that vibrato and all those notes.

[@JeanDeLaCroix_]

So nice and cute

[@aliasoma]

I can’t fathom how there were empty seats.

[@aliasoma]

@Annie-Sophie Mutter If this is really you then you just made my year!

[@aliasoma]

@Annie-Sophie Mutter Phoenix

[@Jiwpgakis]

He forgot my favourite piece. What to do

[@starwarsunfiltered7848]

Which one? I've always had a soft spot for "The Asteroid Field." I would consider "Across The Stars" and "Luke And Leia" to be relative obscurities though. And really good ones.

[@Jiwpgakis]

Sturm Antilles across the stars. He said he almost forgot about „this one“. It sounds like a classic romantic tune from even the romantic era, or an old classic from the 50s. It’s a huge melody , I think

[@MagnsATK98]

I agree, thought the same thing. Come to think of it though, I believe the cause of it is that John Williams rarely listen to his own music, he has said. In addition to that, because the prequels were disliked by many and often sort of glossed over in the Disney era, the Star Wars conserts he's conducted after the prequels, especially lately, have focused heavily on the original trilogy and sequels. Therefore it might just be a long time since he has been reminded of the piece. In the commentary for ep2 back in 02 though you can tell he really loves Across the Stars.

[@aal4995]

Amazing

[@elvisduck4014]

5:01 Violinistically? Is that a word?

[@aglf21]

Yes it is. Means how idiomatic or not something is for the instrument.

[@elvisduck4014]

@@aglf21 Thanks, I had not heard the word before but have heard it again since writing my comment. Always happens that way, hear a word for the first time and then hear it again shortly afterwards.

[@arthurleegis1333]

If it isn't, let's introduce it into our vocabulary, just like describing Khatia Buniatishvili or Lisa Batiashvili as being Beautishviliful.

[@johnbarry5036]

I am not in the music field in any way, but knew the principal double bass of the LA Phil (at that time, hes retired now as well I). I loved classical music and he offered to introduce me personally to JW backstage before a Hollywood Bowl gig. He and JW used to play in a jazz band when they were young and were lifelong friends. I had too many work commitments to cancel on short notice and decided not to go. My sister said I was nuts, should have called in sick! :/

[@ali4ne]

HUH HE FORGOT THE PIECE???

[@patricialuutheminh5299]

J'aime bien quand elle porte ses lunettes.

[@yousebashatarade6074]

I love John William nice sexy love I love his songs more

[@joshuadshepherd]

Sad to see the Princess Leia Theme arrangement she spoke of in the interview not make it onto the album...it's one of my faves!

was she married to the great maestro andre previn?

[@coraggio93]

Wikipedia says she and Andre Previn (d. February 2019) married in 2002, divorced in 2006, and continued to be friends and musical collaborators.

[@MehdiD.Ardebili]

I think she is attracted to him :D

[@mark4tesla]
