King Mark got a reaction from Molly Weasley in John Williams Writes New Theme for ESPN College Football Championship - OF GRIT AND GLORY
yeah they appear to be so proud of it by showing Williams conducting in the videos they could at least release the music as a single. Maybe they don't comprehend that anyone would listen to it outside of a sports montage with sound effects and people talking over it

King Mark got a reaction from Tydirium in Why does the "Re-Use" fee excuse for not releasing expanded scores only apply to Williams ?
Like I said before most other composers get expanded/deluxe editions RIGHT AWAY because they let it happen or push for it. Even if it cost more money it's easier to get things done when the movie is just out and people are interested (strike the iron while it's hot).
Williams only want his 70 minute OST out , which means the "fees" come more into play at a later date because there's no more motivation by anyone to get things done and it's an extra hurdle.

King Mark got a reaction from Will in Williams composing for the Vienna Philharmonic - "Fanfare for the Vienna Philharmonic Ball"
Well it's good news they're re-using it , it increases the chance we might hear a recording one day

None of the pompous people attending seem to be able to make a full recording of it or care about it .We got incidental bits when they were filming something else.

King Mark got a reaction from Andy in The Evolution of John Williams’s sound over the years. Can it be broken down into eras? Or is it not that simple?
I don't . That's why I like The Airport (especially extended in the iso score) from DOD because i feel like it's an action cue like in his 80's scores

Well something like T-Rex Rescue and Finale doesn't seem to have the narrative flow of something like Desert Chase from Raiders.
In my mind ,even back in 1993 I felt something had changed

King Mark got a reaction from JTN in The Most UnWilliams like Score/Piece?
I dunno Fablemans kind of sounds unWilliams. The main theme is like Alan Silvestri in Contact mode

King Mark got a reaction from Edmilson in 96th Academy Awards (2024 Oscars for 2023 films)
The ONLY reason Williams would win for DOD is the "old age lets give him a last Oscar" thing. Maybe Kimmel's comments from last year made them remember
About re-used music from previous scores...nobody outside of this board noticed that

I'll call it his "unfun" era.
Also from Jurassic Park onwards his action set pieces seem less thematic and structured

I think Mothers is funny because it sounds like a child improvising the lyrics

King Mark got a reaction from ThePenitentMan1 in Memoirs of a Geisha - what needs to happen for an official complete release?
Great, thanks for reminding me I'll probably be dead before some Williams expansions are relaased.

King Mark got a reaction from Erik Woods in "Anakin's Theme" and "Scherzo For Violin and Motorcycle" - two new 2023 Anne-Sophie Mutter arrangements by John Williams
And I still think Williams is at the top of his game at 91.
Galaxy's Edge Symphonic Suite, Theme from Obi-Wan, The Rise of Skywalker (concert version), The Adventures of Han, Helena's Theme, The Rebellion is Reborn, Of Grits and Glory, Fanfare for Vienna Ball (unreleased) . All recent pieces that are among his very best even compared to his 70's-80's period.
But in an alternate universe I wish all those new Ann Sophie Mutter arrangements he did were written for full orchestra without Ann Sophie Mutter violin solos giving us a bunch of brand new full concert versions of his film themes. Mutter arrangements feel like an offshoot of his Cinema Serenade album.

Wow he's still planning to work in 2025 .
I think he looked a lot more healthy in the latest Pittsburg concert than the one in Japan earlier this year
