  1. Thanks
    KittBash got a reaction from mahler3 in The Legacy of John Williams (Website & Podcast)   
    These episodes from @TownerFan and @mahler3 with Mike M are becoming something I look forward to and get excited for ALMOST as much as the releases themselves they are just that much of a treat. It's gotten to the point that I download each episode and save it along with the score in the collection.

    I added the remaining info @Ricard had in his deleted pinned concerts thread to the main post here: links to the Performance Details for upcoming concerts, a link to the main page entry for Williams concert reviews, and the link to find upcoming concerts of WIlliams music not conducted by Williams

    I just completed a massive update to the main post.
     
    In general, this is probably the smallest "Upcoming" section that has existed since I created this thread
     
    I added in links to the new Hook and Heidi/Eyre releases, and did some other cleanup in a few spots
     
    But the biggest part of the update is finally making the Catalog Expansion/Premiere/Reissue section reverse-Chronological like the rest, and adding in some threads that just weren't there before.  Phew!
     
    If anyone knows of any Williams releases that aren't listed there, please let me know!

    If it has a date and Williams himself was involved it does indeed matter greatly to the Chronology! 
    Thank You!

    Worth bumping this thread since this revision has been expanded upon to now be a new arrangement for Anne-Sophie Mutter, which premiered last night in Pittsburgh. It’s about another minute longer, and the new ending has the harp play a statement of the Imperial March that’s quite reminiscent of the end of the Vader’s Death cue in Return of the Jedi - chilling that a piece about the character’s childhood now directly references his ending. Hopefully this version gets recorded, it was quite lovely and felt generally more ominous than the original.

    Of course! 
    I not only read them I digitize them (visual and text) for my digital collection so I can review/read them from anywhere. Then I comb through them for any timeline info

    Alas, this may be one of those be happy with what you have moments where I will just have to cherish the first Quartet Heidi and La La Land Jane Eyre that I'm already extremely lucky to have on my shelf.

    Here's the text of that post and the album cover instead of a phone capture
     

     
    In collaboration with Netflix Music, we are pleased to present the physical CD edition of Michael Giacchino's beautiful score for J.A. Bayona's SOCIETY OF THE SNOW.
    The CD release will be available on December 8, along with our last five releases of the year! It's been a bumpy road for some of them, but they're all finally at the plant and will be ready for immediate order and shipping within a week! Stay tuned!

    KittBash reacted to Jay in HOOK (1991) - NEW! 2023 3-CD Ultimate Edition Produced, Edited, and Mastered by Mike Matessino featuring all Williams/Bricusse songs   
    The original OST album wasn't a masterpiece of album programming though.  It's a mostly chronological, mostly unedited assembly of cues that happened to have been recorded already when they had to lock a program in order for the album to be in stores the same week as the film, with no concert arrangements or anything specially recorded just for it, and one entire track playing at the wrong speed. 
     
    It's very clear to me that if schedules had been different, some of the arrangements we eventually got on the Williams/Spielberg CD probably would have been recorded at the film's scoring sessions, and the OST album would have come out different than it is, certainly including some of the music that hadn't been recorded yet like the climax of the score.
     
    The new LLL main program and Disc 3 program are assembled with love and care and are approved by John Williams.
