    TownerFan got a reaction from Will in The Fabelmans - OST Album   
    I heard the whole thing and I can say it's not generic at all. It's restrained, but very heartfelt. There is a French-like character by the way of JW's own unique voice, so it's definitely not the usual generic and trite tinkly piano scoring that is plastered in most contemporary dramas for film and tv shows. Quite the opposite, it shows you can be very musical and profound by stripping it all down to a few instruments and using a restrained approach. The use of piano, harp and celeste is poignant. It's perhaps JW's most chamber-like score of his career, which makes a lot of sense as the film itself is a chamber piece.

    You have almost 50 years worth of fanfares, marches and brilliant overtures he wrote for the movies, including quite a few for Spielberg. In this case, it was not the right approach. It's a very personal and intimate project for the director, and Williams agreed that the film needed only a few cues and that the vernacular had to be restrained. He wanted to be respectful because the story is about Steven's family so I can imagine he didn't want to intrude too much.

    I got intel from good people Now, the film is still several months away so it's totally in the realm of possibilities that something may be tinkered further (this is how things work nowadays), even though from what I understood it looked like it was all said and done, at least score-wise.
