But it's definitely out of order, right?

WOW - complete War Horse - one of my JW holy grails.

Like @karelm, I have a ton I could choose here, but I'll pick these two: The quasi-fugal stuff here (and earlier) is just incredible: Puts a very old musical art form into a new action context. I love JW's action writing in general. Second, the pure exuberance of this piece is one of my favorite sounds, and some of the chords are just perfect:

Williams to co-conduct St. Louis Symphony, November 1

Did anyone happen to record the broadcast of the Violin Concerto last night? I listened to the last movement live but missed the first two. -
"Space Battalions" by James Brett used in Star Wars promotional videos
Will replied to aj_vader's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
I wonder if this might be a rejected trailer cue for TLJ or TROS. I could potentially see it being Williams, though - the audio quality is so terrible it's hard to tell. But on the other hand it does sound a bit trailer-y. -

Starting to listen now. Woah so the beginning music from the trailer was by JNH?! -
The Rise of Skywalker The Rise of Skywalker final trailer MUSIC discussion
Will replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
I do remember reading during the lead up to TFA that whoever cuts the trailers (can't remember who) gets shots from the movie completely out of order, and is basically told "make something cool out of this." That prevents plot leaks and also results in more exciting, visceral trailers that don't focus on explaining storylines, since the people cutting the trailer don't even know the plot. -

Yes, "Jedi Steps" wasn't significantly altered: "The Spark," though, was a complete trailer re-arrangement: -

The Rise of Skywalker The Rise of Skywalker final trailer MUSIC discussion
Will replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
OK I've sort of warmed to the music but still not a huge fan... -
I did like the forest shots a lot.

Yikes I kinda hated this trailer tbh. A lot of that is because of the bad music but also, like Jay, in general it just kinda rubbed me the wrong way. (maybe part of it was the really dark cinematography? Not quite Yates-bad but still bad.) I'm watching it more though - maybe I'll start to like it more. I generally love SW trailers so this was a serious deflation of my hype.

The Rise of Skywalker The Rise of Skywalker final trailer MUSIC discussion
Will replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
OMG... This was awful music. (And this is coming from someone who ordinarily loves trailer music!) Yikes. -
Well, "Jojo's Theme" is a very pleasant listen, although rather predictable yet not particularly memorable...
-
Yep, the commercial you saw is likely the same one released on Twitter that I mentioned here:
-
Omg guys I think this is new Jon William song!!
-
Yeah it's awesome (mostly because of the very good choices of JW score snippets!).

It'll be aired during halftime I'm sure, so no need to actually watch the game! (I think/hope) -
