    Cerebral Cortex reacted to lostinspace in Williams orchestrating The Force Awakens himself?   
    I find it interesting he didn't use an orchestrator for Book thief or Lincoln. So it's most likely a timing issue. Then again those were scores with less notes.
    Also the sketch score for Episode 3 is so clearly laid out ( as you guys say some of it is on 16 lines)\ it really doesn't need an orchestrator at all... JW even has 3 lines for strings with often the viola getting it's own line. ie. The orchestrator has very little contribution if any. Perhaps they may cue in some low wood wind to double brass or strings so changes could be made on the fly?

    I'm so, so hoping the "Luke and Leia" theme gets the amount of use it deserves. Such an amazing theme, and so barely used.

    Because he hasn't left the USA since 2005?

    I was at Birmingham Symphony Hall on Friday night watching the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra do a film music program (Some Williams).
    Just after Battle of the Heroes was performed the presenter, Tommy Pearson (think he works at Classic FM) said "John Williams will be returning to London to record the new Star Wars score this summer".
    What does he know that we don't?

    Discovering that a friend of mine actually listens to the LOTR OSTs regularly led me to back to this blasted cue:

    Cerebral Cortex reacted to Tom in Williams remembers Ian Fraser   
    I think his minor health issues boiled down to needing a bit more time to score episode 7.

    He has 'boldly gone', and The Wrath Of Khan DVD will be watched at some stage this weekend by way of tribute.

    R.I.P. Mr Nimoy.

    Cerebral Cortex reacted to SF1_freeze in The John Williams Complete work (to date)   
    Concerning the "Soundtracks using John Williams' Themes" section.
    Star Wars: Shadows Of The Empire, Star Wars Knights Of The Old Republic Video Game Soundtrack, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Star Wars: The Clone Wars all used the Force Theme
    Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince used the "Quidditch Third Year" motif from PoA
    Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2 used the Family Theme fom HP1

    You know, Counselor. Recently, I've become very much aware that there are fewer Williams scores ahead than there are behind. But I took comfort from the fact that...the Star Wars would go on.
