Williams. I like Ozawa, but I think Williams is the Pele of Composing and Conducting. He does not have many CD's out without his music though. Also, a conductors ability is somewhat limited by the orchestra. He can not make a instrumentalist better. He can only change the style something is played, and that only to an extent. Billybobab

Stink! I knew I should not read this tread till I saw it. It does not show in my area, Milwaukee, till this Friday (August 2). I just couldn't resist reading what others thought. O well, I still am looking forward to it. I am doing a commentary online with some of my friends while we watch it. Billybobab--I knew they were going to edit out good stuff!!! Bunch of ingrates!!! Don't know what they have in John Williams Music!!!

Definitely Angela's Ashes

Hw is it that 44% voted for the second to last choice? If that was you vote then get you butt of a JW fan page. Billybobab-Who thinks that that choice should be eliminated due to idiocity

If triplets are used right, they can make a piece, but if used wrong they will totally screw up a piece. Billybobab

What kind of question is this to ask on a John Williams fan message board??? There is a reason that we all come here. Billybobab

I did not even know he was married. I makes me sad though that his don likes rap. I would shake my head too... Billybobab :cry:

I may be wrong, but I have NEVER read of a Mrs. Williams. HOW COME? Here we could have a Williams Jr. to carry the work after Williams Sr. dies, but instead we are freakin out about his health. Now, there can never be a perfect replacement for the real Williams, but a Jr. sure could have been a help if he were interested in his fathers work.

This is not really a favorite, but no one has probably even thought of "America, and the Dream Goes On." I have a recording of it. It's okay

Born on the Fourth of July

Back to the topic, Williams uses trombones frequently in his music, but not in high registers, and for solos. He prefers the mellow sound of the French horn for those. As far as really deep sounds, I am not sure. I never really listened for them. Billybobab

You jump in after reading the whole freakin string, and post last. Billybobab-Who thinks Australians must have holes in their heads

I do not think that Williams has control of how many minutes he composes. They ASK him to compose a certain amount, then he does it plus some extra. Then they choose what they want to put in the movie. Maybe we should start a Harry Potter Petition. Billybobab

I think it is illegal. What is the freakin diff. between copying a CD and giving it to a friend, and putting it on your computer for someone to download??? Or Copying a program and giving it to a friend, and putting it up for download??? Billybobab--Who has downloaded music before...

No, But I hear that cat gut and horse hair are god for flossing. Billybobab
