“that violin line blows me away” you know what blows me away, firstly that JW wrote this ( and of course many others ) secondly that you transcribed it…. on my tax return, under profession, it states musician, I’m forever wondering what it should state…… sigh 😔
6:44 This would be straightforward and perfectly playable on Cello, but probably unnecessarily difficult in that range on the Double Bass. I think it's more likely he only wrote the runs in the Cellos, and the Double Basses are just playing the bottom note on the accented beat. I also don't think the G is being played in the third measure, it sounds like it's just still ringing from when the Cello played it on the first note of the run-it wouldn't've gotten muted because all the other notes are on the C string.
A classic Williams Prokofiev-inspired march that could be yanked directly from "Peter & the Wolf" (in the best possible way, of course). The classic earliest version of a Williams cue with this same sort of Prokofiev-inspired harmonic language and thematic motivic nature is his march-like cue from Star Wars IV "Jawa Sandcrawler" found here - ua-cam.com/video/eOj6ildsHW4/v-deo.html
Your transcription is wildly impressive. You have quite the ear. Great points. Great video. So interesting!
Thanks so much!
Very clearly presented. Thanks
I like the woodwind runs.
Fascinating assessment! There are so many underappreciated gems in this score.
Thanks!

@@markplumb3968 JW is indeed incredible. I definitely had to slow it down and listen many many times! Thanks for the compliment though!

Wonderful insight thank you!
