Stargazers was premiered during Ann Hobson-Pilot's final season with the BSO, on May 2009.

From where I was sitting, I could barely see the French horns… 😅

The GOAT speaks!!

Direct quote from Michael: "Williams is busy with at least three things - he's writing"
 
The only upcoming pieces that have been announced are the piano concerto and a piece for Yo-Yo Ma, which will presumably be performed at the upcoming Williams/Yo-Yo Ma concerts in February 2024. Assuming those two haven't been completed, that means Williams is writing at least one other piece. Yay!

I just scrolled! Actually, the posts made this year only go for a few pages.
 
 
That's the most recent, and earlier this year:
And with important soundtracks by that popular triumvirate of John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith and James Homer plus important work by Danny Elfman, John Barry, James Newton Howard, Hans Zimmer, Marco Beltrami and several others all in production.
 
So actually no year release was mentioned - just that they were being worked on. I'm guessing Doug probably had this year in mind at the time though. I think an earlier similar statement said this year. I recall there was an earlier and similiar list of names that Doug posted.

This was the setlist according to the festival's site, and the encores where Yoda's Theme, Raiders March, and The Imperial March. I wish I had been able to get a ticket! Doh!

Was wondering when someone was gonna mention that... 

A second screening, at Matsumoto Castle Park, of yesterday’s concert:

Han Solo and the Princess is sad it wasn't included.
 

Not really. Some the opening track in the concert version is the full film-version of "The Eyeland" & "Worlds Worst Beach Party". And other tracks are Suites created for the concert featuring new instrumentation. And Trombones that enter too late... really.. listen to this

They must have reshot it pretty well considering how's it doing critically/box office wise!

Reviving this topic just to mention that "Just Down West Street... on the left" was moderately revised (about 30 various changes to harmony, rhythm, orchestration, and dynamics) by JW before the Tanglewood on Parade performance on 8/2/22 (JW Conducting the TMC Orchestra). That revised version was repeated on 8/20/22 by the BSO, and again on 9/27/22 by the LA Phil. JW stated in general terms when revising the piece that he never fully finished it to begin with, and was happy to have the chance to work on it again. 

Han Solo and the Princess is sad it wasn't included.
 

Falcon Flight would have been a way to get a choir-free Emperor's Theme in

That and the Emperor’s theme where the biggest omissions theme wise, they even cut it out of Asteroid Field.
would have loved to hear Immolation Theme also. Still a great concert.

I loved it! The choir sounded great, and the two vocal soloist likewise sounded great. I enjoyed it far more than the Azkaban concert, I think because If I werre to make a list of Williams scores I'd like to see presented like this, Azkaban probably wouldn't make the top 20 as much as I love some of the pieces from it. My girlfriend heard someone complain at intermission that the music was too loud in the mix - which I thought was the point. Having said that, it did drown at the dialogue at times. That didn't bother me though. And poor horn player hit a wrong note during the one quote of the Gondor theme during the council of Elrond scene. But well one note out of millons, it was just noticeable. The Two Towers is scheduled for September 2024, and hopefully that means The Return of the King in 2025. That would surely be a mamoth undertaking!

I'm seeing Fellowship of the Ring tonight in concert in Seoul tonight, my second of these kinds of concerts - the first was The Prisoner of Azkaban. I just realized it's been a long time since I listened to Shore's LOTR rings music.
 
I'm as familar with the scores as any others, but it was a nice change to listen to a few pieces last night while walking home. 
 
And actually, I had almost forgotten this Tolkien part of the this forum existed, - I usally just visit the Willians part, the general film music section, and very occassionally the "Other Topics" part. Looking forward to exploring the Bear McCreary threads although I have read all his blog posts...I just haven't watched past the second episode for no reason in particular - well, I guess the show didn't really grab me, but I do remember watching the first episode right when a nap happened upon me, so that played a part in my lack of interest in the show, which does not at all extend to the music.
 
Regarding tonight's concert, I'm curious how the Korean choir will handle the Khazad Dum parts which those Maori deep grunts!
 
This would have been a huge film music week if I had managed to score tickets to next Saturday's Williams concert in Japan. Alas!
