THE FILM SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA - The Black Hole (John Barry)

[@Jay-ef2ii]

What a beautiful score by Composer John Barry. July 4, 2023. USA.

[@jac37040]

Beautiful rendition. That score is the best part of that movie. Thank you Mr. Barry for your lifetime of beautiful music.

[@mikemickypeterdavy]

The overture always makes me smile. Gets the old blood pumping

[@meganlockhart4148]

Every time I listen to this theme, I can just imagine a black hole. What great music and it fits perfectly with the movie.

[@LittleMountainLion]

I absolutely loved this movie and score. From better times. Thank you for bringing this music by John Barry back to recognition. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🤟🏻

[@blazerocker1734]

One of those movies I saw when I was young enough that it made an impact and stayed with me more than 30 years. Excellent music.

[@lothean2099]

This was the music I chose at my wedding.

[@WayneE42]

Bravo! I hope you are still married. 🙏

[@carlosneo1554]

I Love this Soundtrack.

[@TANKTREAD]

My first score on vinyl. John Barry was awesome.

[@desertswordsman]

Great, that was perfect! "Way to go Old Bob!!!"

[@chiphowell4063]

Nothing beats the original score/arrangement (with a synthesizer present along with the orchestra) on the original soundtrack, but this is really good. It captures the original, beautifully. I love the majesty of it, as well as the off-kilter waltz bit.

[@Keeazul]

Magnificent! The best Sci-Fi film opening theme!

[@debonyangelgirl6497]

This soundtrack is truly spellbinding and it's as much a part of the movie as the cast and crew.🤖💐🎉🎊. This orchestral cover would truly make John Barry proud.

[@lujonb62kevbar41]

Hearing this in the theater was awesome!!!

[@gkprivate433]

yes I saw the movie when it first came out and I was a sci fi buff and an aerospace engineer and a captain in the Air Force. It was a good year

[@Sytijinx]

I wish had the chance to go. I was still a toddler at the time.

[@larrydorsey7858]

It was awesome

[@plastique45]

John Barry's space opera's soundtracks (The Black Hole and Star Crash) are some of the best of the genre.

[@CarlosRodriguez-vl9gx]

I’ve never heard a bad score from him! RIP Sir.

[@martinmanifold2241]

Goosebumps .....fantastic job

[@meganlockhart4148]

Great performance! Bravo! Listening to this, I can just see a black hole. Perfect!

[@AlanCanon2222]

Oh, DAMN, complete with Overture! Outstanding!

[@mikemickypeterdavy]

Yes! 😊

Opens with triumph and glory, then transitions immediately into "what the fuck did we just get ourselves into?"

[@AlanCanon2222]

Back then we didn't need reclining seats, because movie themes like this came roaring out of the screen so hard you felt the G forces as if you were being launched into space. And the movie hadn't even STARTED yet.

[@mandymayne8759]

Excellent performance. Love this music.

[@victorsotomayor7488]

First Fight I've had in 30 years!!! I only wish it was Reinhardt and Maximillan out there!!

Yes!!!!

[@pdglock19]

One of my favorite movies ever! Beautiful score, have the soundtrack on cd......finally.

[@KARMNAREZ]

SUCH A PREEECIOOUUSSS SCORE AND MOVIE!!!!!!

[@simonormerod3974]

Superb!! Gave me goose bumps!

[@gkprivate433]

yeah, well done. Really was a decent movie. The music was excellent and the dark and the stars background. I saw it when it first came out. D efinitely one of the reasons you go to a movie. The big screen is different than a TV or computer

[@troyleong7412]

Better than the actual film score I thought. OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!

[@martok2112]

Repetitive as the first few tracks of the score were, John Barry's score for The Black Hole is beautiful and haunting. This orchestra conducted by Constantino Martinez-Orts performed a great rendition. Love it!!!

[@capacitymoon9053]

Personally I love it, it makes it have that certain feeling that all hope is lost that you don't know that your doom has caught you and you can never Escape until it has consumed all life.

[@bobgomez9481]

sucky comment of the 3 year period.

[@f.herumusu8341]

Wow! Finally a great performance of one of Barrys ownest pieces. These "rotary strings" could easily make a lesson in scoring for itself. And we hopefully don't need about Barry's low brass ... Master!

[@madfeldor]

I like this a lot! Cheers...

[@gkprivate433]

oh my. bravo bravo. well done

John Barry was an amazing composer.

[@Simonize41]

Superb! I was hoping for ‘Hot and Heavy’ haha. I’d love to hear that live. Mind you, I’d love to hear the whole soundtrack live. John Barry’s finest work imho.

Great movie better score one of my favorites .

[@karenmarieh.j.3842]

I was chatting with a few others a few nights ago and the movie "The Black Hole" came up. It was like remembering a bad nightmare. I remember being a child, when this movie came out. It scared the living poop out of me back then and part of that fear was the eerie music that played at the start of the film and during the movie. Thanks for bringing back a piece of my childhood..... a horrific part but, a part of my childhood none the less.

[@martok2112]

Heh... I could imagine a dad with a devious sense of humor whispering to his little boy or girl as the opening credits played, and we see the computer graphics rendering of a spatial plane which eventually goes toward the black hole: "Look out! It's gonna eat 'ya! Here we go!" :)

[@lisanassy-harrison2441]

I still list this as the movie that scared me as a kid whenever I'm asked lol. But I do own a copy of it on DVD. Still gives me the creeps lol.

[@medicineman360]

Same here! Haven't seen it, since I watched it in the theater, in 79. Its on Disney+, which just went live today. I came to KZbin to find live performances of John Barry's score. Very pleased to find this.

[@debonyangelgirl6497]

@@lisanassy-harrison2441 This was one of my favorite sci-fi movies and Disney movies. I was truly hooked. It was like being in a haunted house and the ghosts are telling you to get out. Fast!!!👻🌟🌌🌕

[@garystyles4151]

Quite literally unreal

[@jose_305]

I always thought the overture and the theme music didn’t match at all, it was like something for two entirely different movies.

[@imfsresidentotaku9699]

It's almost like those two pieces of music are meant to convey different tones for different scenes in the same movie, because that's what a good film score composer does. Not to mention, both cues have that distinct John Barry style.

[@themusicmadeitbetter]

Not too shabby !

[@emmanuelfani5385]

The soundtrack of ”The Black Hole” is so superior compared to the movie itself.

[@tinysteelorchestra]

Raise the Titanic is another stunning example of this. Terrible movie, fantastic soundtrack.

[@mikemickypeterdavy]

All right Charlie!!!

[@darrenmoss2137]

wow super title

[@drummerflex]

I prefer this arrangement over the actual one from the film! It just sounds more refined.

[@millenniumf1138]

Probably because they didn't use the symthesizer parts.

[@imfsresidentotaku9699]

@@millenniumf1138 No "symthesizer parts" =/= "more refined." Composers like John Barry use synthesizers in pretty refined ways and make them mesh well with the orchestra.

[@andrewduncan5748]

SUBLIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@PWALPOCO]

Excellent reproduction, but does the conductor give someone to the left a glare at 4:00 ? Sounded like one of the strings hit a bad note at 3:57 ! Would have liked to have had them finish the 'Overture' finish with its full ending too, overall though, great job!

Where's that very attractive young lady, with the sweet smile (when she's not playing), usually with a big brown bassoon? This must be an earlier production or something.

[@screamingdean5]

When was this?

[@Purrrple]

They're performing it just a smidge too fast, but still pretty good.

[@lotterynj]

Unlike some one we know who rip off classic works aka digital mix ups then rebranded them as his own. John Barry actually wrote all his music with no rehash of others works and still holds there own many yrs latter. We'll study his work long into future than that other guy. Yupper I said it....
