I only wish a Williams-music concert like this could be more frequently recorded and released to the public in some way - limited release DVD or downloadable file, something, anything! I know the expense involved with commercial releases of any kind (which makes it cost-prohibitive right off the bat), but it's too bad that it can't happen even once in a great while. I have some video recordings of his Boston Pops film nights that appeared on PBS back in the day, and they are priceless, and of course were never released in hardcopy by PBS in any way, shape or form. Williams is a National Treasure, he's up there in years, and he's got a huge fan base - if only more of his live music performances were recorded and released for either film music fans (we, band of brothers/sisters), or well, for posterity -- to paraphrase Henry Clay: "[John Williams' artistic output] was made not merely for the generation that [now] exist, but for posterity- unlimited, undefined, endless, perpetual posterity." It's very cool that this concert is happening -- can't wait ultimately for a recording of "Soundings". Vive la JW!
