Popular Post Leandro Gardini 13 Posted January 13, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted January 13, 2017 Hello everybody, I am a Brazilian film composer and admirer of Jonh's music. I am proud to be here among you and to release my new blog in such a forum. During the past few years I have been studing the compositions of the man which I consider the best film composer of all times. As a result I have gained some knowledge and skills which I beleive should be explored as a resource for others, and, thinking about this, I decided to write a book which I call The John Williams Compositional Techniques. This book is a dream that is becoming true as the project progress towards the many ideas I have been given by the people interested in learning more about Jonh's ability to compose. Today, besides the book, I am preparing a series of lectures as well and for a good start, I decided to put available part of the book in my new blog. In the next few weeks I will be posting once a week something interesting about the book. Mostly they will be exercices and analisys about short fragments of the best scores the composer has written. The first two exercises can be seen here: Creation of Texture 1 Creation of Texture 2 For more details about how they were created and stay updated please visit:http://www.leandrogardini.com/blog Please let me know your requests and opinion about this project. Thank you for you support! curlytoot, Loert, Brundlefly and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
