  • Turning off comments from you lot of whiners. I'm not here for your complaints nor do I care about your negative opinions. Don't like the commentary? Shut up. Don't like the footage? Shut up. It's that easy.
    John Williams makes a surprise appearance to celebrate his 90th birthday at Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim 2022. He conducted the theme for "Kenobi" (not recorded), "The Raiders March" from Indiana Jones, and "The Imperial March" from Star Wars. Harrison Ford also surprised us to share the date for the fifth Indiana Jones film!

    Steven Spielberg said it best. "Without John Williams, bikes don't fly, nor do brooms in Quidditch matches, nor do men in red capes. There is no Force. Dinosaurs do not walk the earth. We do not wonder, we do not weep, we do not believe."

    Such an awesome sight to see John Williams giving so MANY cues to the orchestra (sections). He would have the "right" to simply give only general time and dynamics, but no, he cues tiny things in every performance. He couldn't be more down to earth and actually "helping" the musicians...

    There are geniuses and there are icons and then there are figures in history. Williams is the Mozart, Beethoven and Bach of our times. There is no composer, musician, arranger, or producer who is as highly decorated, as well-known, or as well-respected as John Williams in the 20th and 21st Centuries. None. NOT ONE. He has defined what it means to be INSTANTLY recognizable, relatable, and emotionally powerful in terms of orchestral music, CONSISTENTLY AND WITHOUT FAIL... for the last HALF CENTURY. There will not be another like him for decades, if not centuries.

    Without a doubt John Williams is the greatest composer in the last 120 years. No offense to other composers of the 20th century, Holts, Rachmaninoff, Gershwin, Bernstein etc. But how many people who don't regularly listen to Classical music recognize William's work compared to those other composers? William's catalogue transcends classification in any one genre of music. Wish he could continue for another 50 years.
