WOW Iโve never heard this new version of the Trumpet Concerto before! It is simply amazing! And Born on the Fourth of July as bonus? My favorite JW recording purchase of the year! I doubt Star Wars IX is going to top this one for me! Going to spend the rest of the day having this on repeat! Bye! ๐๐

Will John Williams be remembered mainstream in 2100?
_deleted_ replied to batmanand's topic in General Discussion
I think what brought me to JW's music in the first place is his more traditionalist sound. I remember anxiouly waiting in line for The Force Awakens thinking it's a giant 'f*** you' to Hans Zimmer and Friends. But then roughly a year later I found myself transitioning from The Dark Knight score, Holst's The Planets and Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite to Williams' The Five Sacred Trees. The mystical/mythical aspect of The 5 Sacred Trees and how it connects to the sound is amazing. The environmentalism context of it, the reduced score, the entire experience of discovering music written closer to my birth date was emotionally satisfying, because music isn't just Let It Go and Shake It Off, it's so much more that people who argue about traditional harmony vs the modernist approach could have their lives/work/family built on this seemingly endless conflict.... TL;DR John Williams, everything he writes is amazing. If even JW won't go gown as the Beethoven of the 2100s, then who will? I just hope it won't be Elsa and Tay Tay. cuz we are the avengers ๐ -

Will John Williams be remembered mainstream in 2100?
_deleted_ replied to batmanand's topic in General Discussion
I feel like this gif describes the current situation of music (& Star Wars) very well. ๐ omg, I should've given you a much simpler answer! Williams' music might be entering the 'canon', hope Disney won't come and rewrite it๐๐ -

_deleted_ replied to batmanand's topic in General Discussion
I think John Williams belongs to a whole new category of masters simply because film wasn't something in the 17th century. If someone invents the mlif in the future, we'll have future mozarts and beethovens doing their thing and being awesome and cool to future generations. Music preservation becomes really important. I'm actually saddened by how Williams' Star Wars scores are being preserved, and now they're in the hands of Disney... Ugh! I'm pretty sure 40 years later we'll see sth like War Stars and ppl will say it's the new classic. I'm curious, is Mozart and Beethoven still relevant today? Or are they more like Galileo or Plato or Yoda (lol), powerful and strong, but not around anymore. Williams' music has penetrated pop culture so deeply that I don't think he'll ever be forgotten. Star Wars alone might convince ppl from 2070 to label it the Ring Cycle for the modern age or something. But by 2070, is the Ring Cycle still relevant? On Beethoven's 5th Me: JW Cello Concerto > Beethoven's 5th The World: Beethoven's 5th > JW Cello Concerto or Me: JW Cello Concerto > Beethoven's 5th The World: Let It Go > Beethoven's 5th -

Your channel and videos have a lot of potential, esp with SW9 coming out, I expect youโll get more and more views! Great choice! The originals are the best, esp ESB, just the score alone is beyond this world. Thank you! Iโve subscribed to your channel on multiple accounts!

The Rise of Skywalker Star Wars IX The Rise of Skywalker (JJ Abrams 2019)
_deleted_ replied to Jay's topic in General Discussion
TFA was the first Star Wars film I saw in a theatre, so the big-screen experience is what I remember the most. I expect IX to be a fun, light-weight ride with great music from the Maestro. ๐ -

The Rise of Skywalker Star Wars: Episode IX - Early Score Predictions Thread
_deleted_ replied to crumbs's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
Okay... maybe I'm just too obsessed with the Force Theme... I think the Episode IX score is probably going to feature one new concert piece. JW will probably re-use The Jedi Steps and Finale as his send-off. even though I personally want a "complete version" of the Force Theme, I don't think we'll get it. ๐ค I'm excited for the new direction he's heading. What comes after The Rebellion Is Reborn? ๐ป -
