What's your favourite random moment in a Williams score that you don't tell anybody because you can;'t possibly expect them to understand why you love it so much? One of mine for example is the descending chords in the track 'Death of Topthorn' from War Horse (precisely 0:55 to 1:16). The reason I love it so much is that each chord descends, as if walking down a staircase, and with each chord change the main note takes a second to follow, and it creates this sublime melancholy. And it just keeps going longer than you think it possibly could. Probably doesn't make sense, which is why I've never mentioned it before. Share your own moments with time-stamps if you like!

I was quite disappointed with the 2017 version actually! Probably because the 20th Anniversary re-recording was so long and detailed and perfect already.

Hi all, Haven't posted here in a while because I'm not especially tech-savvy. I've written a book series called 'Horn-Horn', and since composing in the style of Williams and Horner is a side-passion of mind, I thought I'd share with you a few of the tracks I have scored for the series soundtrack. It's a YA comedy/fantasy, so very magical sounding and adventurous. Would love any of your opinions and feedback, despite having not reading the books. There are two main themes I've created which feature heavily (Main Theme, and Zag's Adventure). Sound incredible with headphones on. Thanks so much! - Tommy Lellan Welcome to Horn-Horn!

I absolutely looooove 'Dreams to Dream'. It made me cry when I was about six years old. I used to press my ear against the TV speaker when I played it on the VHS, and bawl my eyes out. My mother would've thought I was weird, but I did it a few years before with 'Somewhere Out There', too. I've recently performed this song as a cover, I'll add the link below for anyone who wants to listen. It's a full-blown ballad version mixing the movie version with the Ronstadt version, with rousing strings and a homage to Horner's fantastic score with the end chords. Let me know what you think!

Hi all, My name is Tommy Lellan and I'm a wannabe film scorer. I've been an avid James Horner & John Williams fanatic since I was about 4 years old. I don't think a day goes by where I don't listen to a track (usually Titanic, An American Tail 2, Home Alone, E.T. to name a few). As such, I have frequented this forum for decades without even thinking of signing up until today. I thought I'd share a few of the tracks I've written. About 10 years ago I tried my hand at composing a few "Overtures" for novels I liked. In recent years it has fallen by the wayside in favour of pursuing a singing career, but in 2019 I released an album of original score to accompany my very own book HORN-HORN. Below is a Soundcloud original compositions list, featuring as many of my pieces as I'm willing to share to the public! I would be interested to hear what people think about my work, particularly given John Williams' influence in my life. Thanks and have a nice day. -Tommy Lellan SOUNDCLOUD: https://soundcloud.com/tommylellan/sets/original-compositions
