indy4 152 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Some of William's most popular works are in his marches. But which is the best? I included Star Wars Main Title, because I think it is basically a march. Superman, Imperial, and 1941 were all close calls for me, but I'm going to end up going with Superman.

Red 73 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Raiders"Star Wars" should be removed, and replaced with "Presenting the Hook". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry B 49 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Star Wars, but since it isn't really a march, I voted for Raiders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant 1,093 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 I consider only 1941 and Midway as a "real" march.They are both great , mayby I like Midway more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 It's a tough pick between Superman and 1941, but I'll go with the latter. It never failed to bring a smile to my face when I was discovering Williams' music with the Greatest Hits set.Ray Barnsbury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmo Lewis 6 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 In my opinion John Williams really brought to life the original Krakhozian composition, which was, I believe, composed for a small ensemble which represented a smaller cost for the Government during official acts.

The original was probably played on traditional krakhozian instruments. We should look for a translation of the lyrics (not included in the JW's version). Does anyone here speak krakhozian?

JWfangirl1992 18 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I doubt anyone will agree with me here but "March of the Villians" is mine.
