How would you convince someone that John Williams is the best film composer of all time?

I highly recommend the movie Amadeus for people interested in casually exploring classical music. Although even if you're not, it's one of the greatest films ever made either way.

Like IMMORTAL BELOVED for Beethoven, it basically works like a "Best of Mozart", which is about as wide and accesible as you can get for classical music (perhaps second only to Vivaldi's "Four Seasons"), but yeah -- it's good for that. And what a fantastic movie!

I believe that it's  the start of "The Rite Of Spring", just after the woodwind (bassoon, is it?) intro.

Ok. That explains I never liked that piece too much.
