I'm sure we can expect new concert works -- maybe the promissed new music for Perlman and Ma, a new song cycle based on poems by Rita Dove, and the Cocnerto for Orchestra.And with some luck, new recordings to help celebrate his 75th birthday in 2007. Maybe he finds the time to record his recnet concert works, and well as some of his earlier ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerrygollay 0 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Perhaps, he can rescore some parts of the "New Hope" or rescore the Geonosis battle and whatever Lucas have re-used instead to ask Williams to do it in time , my wish list : into the main reactor, sail barge assault, geonosis battle , crash landing ( ep.3 ) and PLEEEEEEASE SUPERMAN 2 !!!

Incanus 5,715 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Star Wars scores should be left alone! No more tinkering! I am sick and tired of hearing that William should rescore that or this bit of the OT for thematic continuity but as the backwards order of making of the films has ruined the continuity already why tweak the OT just to get that right. We have to accept that the music does not flow so well as it would if the scores would have been composed in chronological order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romão 2,274 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 YOu have the Dvd's. You have the complete scores. If they tinker with the music, you give it a listen,you like it, or you don't like. The original score is preserved forever. What do we have to lose?Romão, who would be curious to listen to some rescored sections of star wars, even though it is as perfect as scores get.

It's been confirmed that all the Phantom Menace music that was tracked into Attack Of The Clones by various interviews with John Williams that no music was written for those scenes. Probably because the ILM department was still working on the CG stuff for them.It's more than just 2 Phantom Menace cues in the tracked music...there's a lot of cues for the tracked music, especially the Battle Of Geonosis parts.I doubt they will rescore it. George Lucas isn't Peter Jackson and he most likely won't ask John Williams to come back and re-score those scenes.Those scenes with the tracked music were pre-planned, just like the scenes that have both The Phantom Menace and Attack Of The Clones music in Revenge Of The Sith.As I said don't count on them being re-scored.
