WilliamsStarShip2282 308 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 http://www.goplanete.com/johnwilliams/composer/index.htm I found that website, which is listed as a sister site. It lists John as having written a title music for the Universal logo. Does anyone know anything about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurassic Shark 12,008 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 You'll have to ask @Bespin, as it's his site. WilliamsStarShip2282 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,451 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 It's something we've been discussing for ages, but as far as I know, no one has been able to trace this down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1977 1,743 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Isn't it the one he adapted for the E.T. 20th Anniversary LTP concert - which starts out as Goldsmith's Uni logo then morphs into the melody from Flying? I'm quite fond of that arrangement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 He's talking about one listed as 1967 on Bespin's site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,451 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Yes, it's the old one we're talking about here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Andrade 1,260 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 It's music from The Rare Breed that's used as the Universal Logo shows up. I believe it can be heard on the suite recorded with the City of Prague Philharmonic in the late 90's. Not sure if it was used often after that. By the way, I've seen the Horner logo music for Universal mislabeled as Williams a lot of times. WilliamsStarShip2282 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more like how a composer might write music relating to the score over the top of a logo, like the Logo in Harry Potter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
