    If you never saw it, Finale did a very cool interview with him in 2017 about their process lately with Williams

    Can you share a story of a time when things didn’t go exactly as planned?

    I can remember one incident on a “Harry Potter” film. There was a short cue he’d written for a kind of unusual small band and there were no strings. There might have been an accordion or a keyboard or something like that.

    So I got a call to go out to the podium. And he said to me, sotto voce, “There are no strings on this cue.” We looked at it together and I said, “Well, you didn’t write any strings.” And he said, “Well, you know what to do.”  [Laughs]

    So I provided the string parts from his keyboard sketch and within forty-five minutes or an hour they had strings and that’s the way we did that.

    Any idea which cue he's referring to here? Something from PoA?

    CONCERT ANNOUNCEMENT – «FIDDLER ON THE ROOF» LIVE WORLD PREMIERE AT KKL LUZERN!
    "Tradition", "If I Were A Rich Man", "Sunrise, Sunset"... Who doesn't know these songs? We are delighted to present the live world premiere of the iconic 1971 musical film «Fiddler on the Roof» with the Oscar-winning work of Hollywood legend John Willliams at the KKL Lucerne on 31 May 2024!
    Set in the village of Anatevka in Ukraine in 1905, «Fiddler on the Roof» tells the story of Tevye (Chaim Topol), who tries to find good husbands for his five daughters while trying to preserve the traditions of his religion and community in a changing world.
    While the restored film shines on the big screen, the 75-piece City Light Symphony Orchestra performs Jerry Bock's music, adapted and expanded by John Williams, with the original vocals to match the film. Conducted by Anthony Gabriele.

    Clone Wars as mentioned in other threads has blatantly reused music primarily from other films, but not as much classical music iirc. Although I do recall in one of the unfinished (Utapau arc) episodes they quoted Mars, The Bringer of War.

    Will keep an eye out for that one when I get to that point!
