John Williams' Film Night at Tanglewood, Aug 2 and 3, 2024
Smeltington replied to Smeltington's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
For me, yes! I was refreshing the page constantly, like once per second, and the button finally appeared exactly where you'd expect. I think it was pretty well timed to appear right at 10. I didn't have to wait in any virtual queues or anything, but then I went in afterward and bought a ticket for Tanglewood on Parade, and that one had a queue. -

Congrats! @Andy did you get in too? I feel like the support beams are further back than that. Can't find any info about possible obstructed views online though. -

Wow, weird, I doubt it sold out that fast. Don't give up yet... also for anyone having issues, I wonder if calling their box office still works? I remember doing that back when their online ticketing system used to have some serious problems. -

Last year I spent $65.50 per ticket, including fees, to sit in section 20. I recommend the shed, and not the lawn, if you want to see the stage. And buy your tickets right at the onsale time, because they usually sell pretty fast. Excited for you! -

Build-Your-Own Fantasy Tanglewood Film Night program
Smeltington replied to BSOinsider's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
Pretty much! After last week's Harry Potter-free Carnegie Hall program, I'm ready to course correct. I really love the Children's Suite, and I've seen the HPSS live-to-picture twice now, so the suite is the biggest missing piece! And it's criminal that Williams never includes anything from Azkaban, which is part of the official canon of JWFan's top 10 Williams scores. Although you can argue that some of this material is in the LTP, but whatever! At least we get a broadcast of Window to the Past to cherish. The first half Star Wars suite is where I realized I had a bunch of random Star Wars tracks and grouped them. Whereas you probably caught on to the fact that the encores form a sequel trilogy suite. It would have been nice to include something from Phantom Menace, but it's ok, I'm still basking in the glow of last year's Film Night selections from that score. And RotS is covered by my fantasy program for Williams' set at Tanglewood on Parade : Anakin's Dark Deeds/It Can't Be Remembering Childhood Where Dreams Are Born Is there a Sid Ramen track that hints at how he would approach Canto Bight? And, when will we see your list? -

Build-Your-Own Fantasy Tanglewood Film Night program
Smeltington replied to BSOinsider's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
This was a fun exercise. I've wished many times that someone would ask me to program Film Night! Of course, the best outcome would be a three-night Williams festival with no repeated material. But as it is, here's the first half of the concert, conducted by whoever is up to the challenge, likely Keith Lockhart, since he seems enthusiastic about programming and conducting Williams "rarities": The Land Race Three Pieces from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban: A Window to the Past Buckbeak's Flight Double Trouble Three Random Pieces Some Guy Picked from Three Random Star Wars Movies: Anthem of Evil The Death Star Love Pledge & The Arena A New Beginning The Raptors Appear / High Bar and Ceiling Tiles Freedom's Call Remembering Emilie, and Finale The Fabelmans That's a first half close to 50 minutes, an unwieldy and improbable John Williams smorgasbord. But that's why it's my fantasy and not my reality. Second half, conducted by a turbo charged John Williams, for another 50 minutes: The Adventures of Tintin Selections from the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone Children's Suite: Hedwig's Flight Hogwarts Forever Voldemort Nimbus 2000 Fluffy and His Harp Quidditch Family Portrait Diagon Alley The Mine Car Chase Farewell Neverland Canto Bight (encore) Farewell and the Trip (encore) The Rise of Skywalker (encore) This exercise made me realize most of my essential Williams tracks fall into one of three categories - finales, setpieces, or theme arrangements. As an insider, can you confirm that the above program will be used for this year's Film Night? -
