gkgyver 1,645 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 OK we have THE CD cover right there. Awesome Sandor!I'm so indefinitely glad Williams does a movie not involving Spielberg or Lucas. He always produced fantastic music with other directors.Are you implying that he didn't produce good music with Spielberg and Lucas or just saying that he has always done good work with directors he has worked with during his career?I'm saying neither. I'm saying that work with other directors almost always resulted in something more unique than the usual Spielberg/Lucas scores. You can't say War Horse or Tintin or Lincoln or Indy 4 were terribly unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Judging from the apparent large role of the piano, this should be a nice change of pace from his previous large scale efforts.

Muad'Dib 1,801 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Well, Sabrina is very jazzy in nature. I don't think he's gonna take that approach here.

mrbellamy 6,272 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 It is funny how we've learned about both his initial involvement and now the scoring sessions long after the fact, as opposed to all these huge projects he's been attached to over the last decade where every last detail is heavily scrutinized.

JamieC 13 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Permit me to indulge a happy memory here: the current 'surprising' (and very pleasing) news about JW writing the music for The Book Thief movie adaptation takes me back (with a wry smile) to pre-internet days when you'd walk into a record shop ('A what ?' I hear some you perhaps ask) and you'd suddenly discover a John Williams soundtrack you had no idea about because there wasn't the volume or speed of information dissemination in the fabric of daily life as there is now.I remember discovering the soundtracks for Presumed Innocent and Stanley & Iris in the late summer of 1990 when I came across them in HMV on Oxford Street in London. This was hugely exciting as they were both new albums and had just seemed to 'arrive' in a rather magical way in shops. I had no idea that JW had composed them and there would certainly never typically be any advance news about such projects. To some degree that kind of surprise was true of movies, too. The first time you'd see a movie poster used to be when you saw it just a few days before a given film's release when it was printed in a newspaper or put up in its frame outside the local cinema. I guess it's fair to say that the wave of pre-release hype and promotion which the internet can now furnish has perhaps taken away, or at least lessened, certain kinds of discovery. (I appreciate that one can choose to not go online and read / listen / view pre-release material, of course).JC Smeltington 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
