Williams has everything already Orchestrated in his Sketches. The Orchestrator doesnt really add anything and is really just there to write it all on the full score paper.

@@mr.vorrnyvorrn2516 John Williams writes a so called Sketch, but its not really a Sketch but rather a Shorthand to write all the parts down. He writes on 8 or 16 staff notation paper where he can include everything from Strings to Brass, woodwinds and Percussion. But he doesnt need to write down every single doubling, meaning if all the woodwinds play the same line for example he can just write down the line once and write "woodwinds" next to it. This saves a lot of time wich is valuable in the big movie business. The Orchestrator, Karam or Pope or back in the day Herbert Spencer, uses Williams shorthand then to copy everything on the the full Score paper. Williams could do that part aswell, and he sometimes does actually, but this way it saves a lot of time. I have a access to a lot of Williams sketches and i can tell you all the detail of the Orchestration is included and nothing gets added by the Orchestrators. But they still have to be very good Orchestrators (wich they are, thats why they are working with Williams) because if Williams writes in his shorthand for e.g. a Chord on a staff with "woods" written next to it , they have to know exaclty how Williams would want the Woodwinds to be voiced on that Chord. If you want to take a look at one of Williams Sketches yourself btw i could sent you something. I have his handwritten Sketch for this very piece for e.g.
Thank you for this analysis. The chords Mr. Williams uses in incredibly dissonant, and fit so well with the film.
I agree!
Edward. Fucking. Karam.
He is the definition of badass. We all praise John Williams, but you have to credit Karam for the orchestration.
