matthewslater 0 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I can't seem to find any good links on the web to clips of JW conducting in his sessions. Any suggestions for good links? There was one that linked to an apple.com site - one of the SW session I thinking.Anyway - suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth 67 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 The best ones I know of are at starwars.com. The webdocs have some good session footage and and AOTC music video has some good footage too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Andrade 1,263 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 It would be easier to stop by the video store and rent a few of his scored film DVDs. Many of them include music featurettes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I agree with Miguel.They might not be full-length clips, but there's always at least some snippets here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 1941, E.T., The Prequels, and War Of The Worlds have footage of Williams conducting. I know there are more, I think the Jaws doc has a short glimpse of Williams conducting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisAfonso 186 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 E.T. is THE must-have in this regard, the featurette on the 20th anniversary live full score performance is amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Also on the doc it features Williams conducting the Halloween flying sequence.The Last Crusade Doc features Williams conducting some of the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the part where Williams is scoring the Ferry Scene (or Scene on the Ferry...that doesn't sound much better does it... :oops: ) does anyone else notice there are no violins in the orchestra? Only violas and celli and winds, brass and perc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 The Last Crusade Doc features Williams conducting some of the score.Yes it does, along with some charming footage of Williams and Spielberg discussing the score's merits. I love that doc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewslater 0 Posted September 14, 2006 Author Share Posted September 14, 2006 It's crazy that there is so much interest in Williams' work that there isn't a definitive DVD biog relesaed - is anyone taking notice of our petition!!! We must prevail!!!E.T. is THE must-have in this regard, the featurette on the 20th anniversary live full score performance is amazing Yes - truely a great bit of film music history.

Only violas and celli and winds, brass and perc.I think this was talked about before.In any case, I did noticed the lack of violins, not only on the featurette, but on the actual music.

I love that doc.Did anyone notice how uninterested George Lucas appeared to be while Spielberg and Williams were talking. Maybe that's because he was doing his producer's job and trusting in director and composer. Who knows, but he definitely doesn't seem to be into as much as Spielberg.Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
