What a fitting place it could have been to be the first liner notes to mention the new name! I was trying to figure out what the building was previously called? Because it seems from different articles that the scoring stage itself will remain the Streisand Scoring Stage, but now within the Williams Music Building.

mrbellamy 6,633 Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 Yeah this Deadline article clarified it is the building with the Streisand stage and the Cary Grant Theatre (mixing stage) but I couldn't find any info on what the building had been called. Maybe it was just an unnamed building in the studio complex, or Sony Music Building or something generic. Now we have a new acronym for our lexicon. The JWMB, baby.

Also, with J.J.'s presence here, can we finally put to rest the notion that Williams has some sort of lingering distaste toward him? Also also, your move, Juilliard!
