"Merry Christmas" Composed and Conducted by John Williams.

"Merry Christmas" Composed and Conducted by John Williams from the movie Home Alone. Performed by the Boston Pops.

[@zoltan902]

You can see the gratification in his face when he's conducting that introductory fanfare. He's obviously very proud of the way he wrote this piece, and of the performance the orchestra is giving.

[@ealing456]

For me, the style that John Williams' developed in the 1990s is just so rich. There's nothing quite like it. Home Alone, Jurassic Park, the Star Wars prequels and Harry Potter.

[@dylangeltzeiler946]

ealing456 I like those with John Williams Scores too. Especially JAWS from the 70S.

[@jp3813]

1970s and beyond.

[@alexjardine3383]

Hook maybe his most underappreciated work too

[@NJTDover]

@@alexjardine3383 Hook is most likely one of his best themes.

[@katoeire]

The composer of Home Alone can't be too far from the Christmas spirit....

[@briansky10]

There's no one like John Williams. His music nothing short of pure and powerful!

[@mydogskips2]

And magical, it's amazing the moods he is able to conjure in those who listen to his music.

So rousing and joyful. Maxes out my festive cheer meter every time. Scored all my childhood favourites. John Williams - legend

[@NJTDover]

As usual, it has to be John Williams who wrote this magnificent piece of Christmas theme. Streamers rolling down my cheeks as I listen to this marvelous orchestra along with the choir of angelical voices when Christmas was an event for the family. A beautiful trip to memory lane with my grandparents and parents (gone long time) around the big table.

[@nicholaserasmus3693]

I know how you feel. Thanks for sharing.

[@mysteryminx2619]

I simply love this song, this is joy, it feels like it was a tune from Fezziwigg's Christmas party. The bridge is beginning for a wonderful reel to be danced to it and it embraces the entire winter season. It's the first song I play on Christmas morning and I blast it till it shakes the walls. That is came from "Home Alone" just adds to its magic.

[@irenesupica5571]

Got to sing this once at our Symphony's pops concert. So much fun!

i loved!!!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😭😭😭😭

[@BKG0227]

I remember playing that horn solo

[@jslasher1]

Wonderful! Never fails to impress.

[@dakritic]

FYI...John Williams is a God.

[@mydogskips2]

Not yet, but he will be shortly.

[@iberius9937]

Still the most epic Christmas song ever written that's not an actual traditional carol, next to "God Bless Us Everyone" by Alan Silvestri and sung by Andrea Bocelli.

[@MaxxUS08]

If you like this piece listen to the Never-Feast track from the score for Hook. Very similar, only no chorus.

[@matthewhedrichjr.5445]

Also Jaws and Lincoln that Williams composed the scores for those films

[@admiralpicard2010]

My new favourite Christmas song

[@dylangeltzeiler946]

The Same Composer & Conductor who did JAWS. Then after Home Alone 1 & 2, he did the 1st 2 Films of JURASSIC PARK. Yeah, he did the 1st Trilogy & 3 Prequels of STAR WARS too. Especially one of the HARRY POTTER Films as well.

[@pletchmeister]

And the Indiana jones theme, and probably a shitload more but I'm too drunk to remember right now. William's is totally rad.

[@dylangeltzeiler946]

@@pletchmeister Sorry, I didn’t have Time for Dr. Jones. Also, the Temple of Doom featured Alligators, not Crocodiles. Because a few species of Crocodiles are known to live in India.

[@pletchmeister]

Thanks for the fun fact Merry Christmas, dude

[@dylangeltzeiler946]

@@pletchmeister 1 more thing. I don’t like word “🤬load” you tipped down. I’m sensitive & I do not tolerate Cursing words.

[@matthewhedrichjr.5445]

He also did Hook and Lincoln if you didn’t know.

Nah, definitely more Hook-ish.
