A question for the experts: More than a source credit John Williams with the composition of a second symphony. Probably they refer to the Sinfonietta for Wind Ensemble from 1968. But Steven Spielberg, in his notes for 1975 album from Jaws, speaking about Williams’ catalogue says literally: “…including two full symphonies, a symphony for winds,...” This affirmation seems to prove the existence of that mysterious second symphony. Could anyone confirm some fact about this matter? Thank you…
