The Last Jedi THE LAST JEDI - OST Album MUSIC Discussion (No Movie Spoilers)
80sFan replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
I like this too. The music is great (I'm a brass person so particularly like this arrangement) but I have to agree on the quality of the scene... -
Not sure I agree with all but an interesting list. https://ew.com/movies/star-wars-best-music-ranked/

New Podcast Series: The Complete John Williams Television Music Walkthrough
80sFan replied to Thor's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
This is great (as the previous parts). I really enjoyed learning about a TV show I had never heard of before, several I had heard of but never heard the music, as well as Gilligan's Island (brings back memories hearing it as a kid). Nice work! -

To be honest, the only score I program the Fox Fanfare before is this one… (still not sure what I like about it but I seem to play it fairly often) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Lukas Kendall ...but John Williams actually did arrange and record this version of the classic Alfred Newman "20th Century Fox Fanfare with CinemaScope Extension"—for the 1964 Arabian themed farce John Goldfarb, Please Come Home! (The studio said, "Absolutely not!") https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFfEf-ClIbE -------------------------------------------------------------------

Has anyone else heard of this new arrangement? https://jarijuhanikallio.wordpress.com/2023/01/30/from-symphonic-beethoven-to-john-williams-with-emanuel-ax-leonidas-kavakos-and-yo-yo-ma/ What, one might ask, could steal the show after two such inspired performances of Beethoven. In this case, the answer was none other than John Williams, whose iconic Theme from Schindler’s List (1993) was heard as a profoundly captivating encore. Commissioned by the trio over a phone call with the composer, Williams’s pristine arrangement focuses on the prayer-like intimacy of the music, while retaining emotional subtlety of the original orchestral score.

His arrangement is perfect for this...(contest only makes sense for trombonists but it's a good listen) Jim Nova's latest overdub is a medley of 6 "villain" themes written by John Williams and is scored for eight bass trombones and two contrabass trombones. What's more sinister than a bass trombone choir? Jim is hosting a contest to see who can identify the six villains from the medley! https://www.johnstonbaughs.com/topic/a-gathering-of-villains-contest-3rd
