Popular Post Matt C 452 Posted May 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2019 I know Williams alternates between London and Los Angeles for score recording, but has he recorded elsewhere other than special instances like Chicago (Lincoln) and Boston (Saving Private Ryan)? The only other country he's scored a film in was Canada for the choral sessions for Schindler's List. Ricard, Will and SteveMc 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faleel 5,346 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Some of Temple of Doom was recorded in Boston IIRC. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artguy360 1,843 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Boston and Chicago for sure. Also in this place called London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,714 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 2 hours ago, Faleel J.M. said: Some of Temple of Doom was recorded in Boston IIRC. IIRC at least the Sanskrit chant for the ritual was originally pre-recorded by the members of the Boston Symphony/Pops. And Heidi was recorded in Germany. From the Quartet Records' site (who released the new edition of this score): Quote As Heidi was a joint production with Studio Hamburg, Williams recorded his score in Germany with members of the Hamburg Opera. He later recorded supplemental album tracks at CTS Studios in London (including the song “A Place of My Own,” with lyrics by Rod McKuen).

TownerFan 4,983 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 The infamous Story of a Woman was recorded in Rome, Italy, even though JW wasn't present at the session (Universal Pictures music supervisor Stanley Wilson was there in his place), as he was busy in London working on Goodbye Mr. Chips.

Matt S. 493 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 If I might expand a bit on the OP's original question, has JW recorded any albums, film scores or otherwise, with any orchestras other than LA, Boston, or London (besides the ones already mentioned...Lincoln, Saving Private Ryan, etc.)? Where he himself was the conductor? I can only think of two; the first Cinema Serenade album with the Pittsburgh Symphony, and the Star Wars album with the Skywalker Symphony (which I believe was made up of San Francisco-area based musicians). There was also Call of the Champions (along with Hymn to New England) with the Utah Symphony, but the rest of the American Journey album was made up of tracks recorded in LA. Are there any others I'm not thinking of? (And I'm not including any of the jazz albums from his Johnny Williams days....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,515 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Yes, of course he has. Anvil Studios was in Buckinghamshire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
