This weekend, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, enhanced by the Hamlisch-Page Student Choir, will offer three performances of "The Music of John Williams". https://www.pittsburghsymphony.org/production/77360/the-music-of-john-williams The program includes the Liberty Fanfare, "Call of the Champions", excerpts from Empire of the Sun ("Cadillac of the Skies"), J.F.K., Lincoln, The Witches of Eastwick as well as from the Harry Potter, the Indiana Jones and the Star Wars movies.

The cuts and jumps in both the Superman March and in Raiders March were - at least in my opinion - rather annoying. I assume that those were added in order to save time. Also, I was not surprised to see Itzhak Perlman. Perlman was the soloist in today's symphony concert, so why shouldn't he perform the night before? In the end, it was an American show. What is being sold as "surprise" and "spontaneous", is nothing but a meticulously choreographed show.

John Williams returns to Vienna! March 12/13 2022
MovieMusicMaestro replied to crlbrg's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
Nope, at Tanglewood. No "Across the Stars" in Berlin. And no ASM on stage in Berlin. -
It seems that JW has written a new concerto: "Percussive Planet". The premiere (?) will be at Berlin's prestigious open-air venue "Waldbühne", just a few steps off the Olympic Stadium, on June 26, 2021. The Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra will be conducted by Wayne Marshall; soloist: Martin Grubinger. https://www.digitalconcerthall.com/en/concert/53181

No, that's a different production, and this orchestra is definitely NOT the London Symphony Orchestra.

I attended John's concert with the San Diego Symphony on February 10, 2007. The SDS is a great orchestra. -

No, this information is not correct. Scores and parts are definitely not engraved, although one rental library does hire out, for example, the Theme from JURASSIC PARK in John's own handwriting. This edition was available before JURASSIC PARK was eventually published by Hal Leonard. All works published within the Signature Edition series have been adapted from the original soundtrack version in order to suit the demands of a professional orchestra that intends to perform select excerpts in a standard concert setting. Most changes relate to instrumentation, for example: four horns instead of six, one keyboard player instead of two, and so on. As far as I know all works within the Signature Edition have been recorded, either by John Williams himself or by other conductors. I am not sure whether John himself is arranging / adapting his film music for concert use. I assume he did that job when he was with the Boston Pops. But be assured that all works within the Signature Edition have been authorized by John.

REMIXED & RESTORED: The Lost World: Jurassic Park
MovieMusicMaestro replied to Mr. Breathmask's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
There is a typo at minute 12:07. The sign says "No tresspassing." It should say "No trespassing." ;-)
