This looks FANTASTIC!
 
My wife introduced me to Rebels, Clone Wars, etc. and I've loved all of it.
 
Then again, I am a rather big nerd.

I am not sure if this is JW or not, but I LOVED the Big Bold Brassy sound of the Main Star Wars theme at 1:@6
 
 

Now all that we would need to see is The Rock and Temuera Morrison (Boba Fett) team up to do a Haka with the backing of a John Williams Polynesian sounding Drum piece.

Ever since Disney bought Star Wars, I was WAITING for this to happen.
 
I might be in the minority here, but I am glad this will be happening.

I haven't gotten to read all of this topic, but something for me, the answer is complicated.
 
I'm not sure WHY I like this so much, but to me it just is a beautiful snippet of music.  In Hymn to the fallen, this small snippet flutters away, but it is beautiful.
 

This might be a little unpopular, but: If The Maestro didn't win for Dial, I am at least glad Ludwig did win.
 
After the First season of The Mandolorian, there was a special about the Music of the series, and Ludwig did a hat tip to the Maestro when discussing how to went about composing the music for it.
 
I would have been OK with Robbie Robertson won as well.
 
I am more disappointed about Best Song.  I thought "The Fire Inside" , "It Never Went Away", and "Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People)" were VASTLY superior to anything Barbie produced.
 
 
Also of note I just saw this.  From the Wikipedia Article for The Music of "Killers of the Flower Moon"
 
Tim Greiving of the Los Angeles Times wrote that "Robertson's contribution is an astonishing and lively musical ecosystem that gives immediate authenticity to Scorsese's equally vivid presentation of Osage life and culture in 1920s Oklahoma. It's music that proudly worships and dances with these people — and alternately weeps for their oppression, at times sounding almost sick at their treatment by the story's white predators." He also called the soundtrack "the best music Robertson ever wrote for the screen."
 
I think we know the quote giver...

I may be thinking more into this than it is worth, but:
 
My wife and I will go to The Hollywood bowl a few times a year.  This years opening concert is a tribute to Mancini...so...possibly around May?
 
His 100th birthday will be April 16

I love the lyrics too! They speak to me!
 
"Laa laa laa la la-laaaa"
 
 

To be fair, I think Beethoven's staffers run his account. He has a policy of never posting online himself. However, Brahms posts his own stuff and often copies what Beethoven wrote... cheeky.

I found this by pure accident:

And at least the other category he was nominated in DIDN'T go to Barbie

For Helena’s Theme

The rain cancelled our vacation plans, so was just able to convince the missus to go to the Friday show. 
 

Looks like there will be pre-concert talks an hour before all of the showtimes:

I'll be there a that time too!!!!  Do you know if there will be a preconcert talk?  

My wife and I are actually going to this for the Sunday Performance!!
