^That. 

BFG's nice.

Williams should just go back to being younger. Getting old was a bad idea.

9. The Comic Sans Incident
10. Fake News Fugue

I'm guessing none of these guys are big Home Alone fans.

Here it is.
 

Agreed.  The end credits for POA still piss me off since it started out fantastically, and then segued into a bunch of theme edits stitched together.  To be blunt, it had the potential of being one of Williams greatest end credit suites.  Shame.

I've heard William Ross swings the club for him. 

That's a good one, but I prefer the untouched original:
 

@Pieter_Boelen @Tom I think we'd settled on calling it the "friendship" theme last I remember.
 
 

Thing about the revised suite is he cut out my favorite theme

I love this score. Maybe not every single cue but some of the pieces are just pure brilliance to me.

I think it's one of the best scores ever written for film. Great themes and brilliant orchestration throughout.

Soon it'll just be cheaper to hire JW and the Hollywood Studio Symphony to perform it in your living room

It's a bloody masterpiece compared to what passes for most film scores these days,

It's especially fun having both flute and piccolo pieces on the same stand, when the jagoff arrangers don't write flute cues on the piccolo part. 

I played an outdoor concert yesterday and page turns were a freakin' nightmare!  It's certainly appreciated when there's a nice 8+ measure rest for me to get the page turned and clothespin applied (it was windy).

Why not then just promote the orchestrators to become composers? Since the composers themselves seem so unskilled and incompetent afterall.

Here's an interview with her from the JG documentary
 
 

To the extent that they're just glorified copyists, probably. Luckily, a lot of modern composers are untrained in orchestral writing, so orchestrators won't have to starve.

I found this helpful sentence in a newspaper profile of Artie and JoAnn Kane:
 
"Joann and Artie Kane’s music-driven life is reflected in their vast Whidbey Island garden. Artie is a pianist who composed scores for “Looking For Mr. Goodbar,” “Dynasty” and “Love Boat,” among many films and television shows. JoAnn sang in Vegas, and opened for Perry Como before starting a successful company that prepares and transcribes music for clients as diverse as Barbra Streisand and the Los Angeles Philharmonic. "

Wife of Artie Kane.

That was a really neat interview! Thanks for sharing @Jediwashington!

Doesn't that basically mean that JoAnne Kane has basically muscled out the traditional orchestrator?
