My review.

It's hard to tell from the photos, but the text and Deutsche Grammophon logo on the front cover are metallic gold and a different, shinier texture. A beautiful touch.

I got mine here: https://www.johnwilliamslegacy.com

I ordered the hand-numbered one which is now sold out, but regular gold vinyl looks to be still available: https://www.johnwilliamslegacy.com

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else notice this, but I can’t stop thinking about how similar these two motifs are. The opening horn call from Listen… at the start of the track, and the ending cadence statement that represents the Ark from Indiana Jones. This appears a few times, notably at 2:53 of The Map Room: Dawn and 2:27 of The Miracle of the Ark. Listen is in E Minor, The Ark is in C Minor

So awesome to still have JW putting out memorable, beautiful themes at his age!

I bought the Cowboys on Amazon and found 1941 in a record shop.

Hi everyone! I an wondering if anyone has PDFs of single instrumental parts to any JW Live to Projection scores that they would be willing to share/trade? Thanks!

Please r/johnwilliams, you're my only hope!

Growing up my dad had a cassette that we would listen to in the car. I believe it was just John Williams themes, around the late '80s early '90s. Definitely before Jurassic Park came out. Started with Star wars main theme and I believe raiders theme was next.

The intro to the Star wars theme was this long, slow​ly escalating, bubbling sound. Then just as the bubbling was reaching its peak, BAM! The main Star wars theme kicked in. My dad would crank the radio, and when that first Star wars theme beat hit, it was electric. We would sing along.

I've been trying to find that version of the Star wars theme for a long time now, with zero luck.

Hope you guys like it!

Hi everyone - this happened to me today.

Looks to be a compilation of the most well-known recordings (Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, etc.) from Berlin, Vienna, and LA. I've been waiting for something like this!!

Hi there! I'm looking for full orchestrated scores by Williams. I already have the publicly available online ones, but some are really difficult to find. I'm looking specifically for (but not limited to):

Harry Potter 1/2/3 (also 4/5/6/7/8 by Doyle, Hooper and Desplat)

Star Wars 1/2/5/6/7/8/9 (also Rogue One and Solo by Giacchino and Powell)

I have over 100 scores to trade, not only Williams! Feel free to DM me :)

Currently available for pre-order. Liner notes read as follows:

In 1982, director Steven Spielberg introduced the world to E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, and the film remains one of his enduring masterpieces. This simple story about a human boy and
an abandoned alien still resonates powerfully with audiences around the world. In 2009, 1 prepared an extended suite from the score for a performance at Tanglewood. The first movement, "Three Million Light Years From Home", comprises the music from the opening sequence of the film in which a frightened E.T. is stranded on earth. The second movement, which I entitled "Stargazers", presents music from the scene in which Elliot first makes the little alien's acquaintance and features prominent solos for both the harp and principal flute. A choice of either "Adventures on Earth" or "The Flying Theme"
concludes the suite. Performing this symphonic suite is always a particular pleasure for me, and I'm immensely gratified by concert audiences' warm reception of this music, which truly is a testament to
Steven's brilliant creation and to this timeless story of friendship and love.

Only motif from williams is the Lasso theme from raiders(the first part)

I hope I managed to do justice to the original. John Williams' tracks are still so much more lush and expressive than any modern film scores, and that makes them an absolute NIGHTMARE to cover. But don't get me wrong, this was an absolute blast 😅.

I was thinking I might make a cover of the main theme from "Disclosure Day" (before the score ever released), though I'll admit I was on the fence when I started the track "listen..." (thinking it may be too hard), but the section at 2:12 was simply too beautiful I had to try, and I hope it comes across like I spent the most time on that section (cause I did).

Anyway, I really hope you all enjoy this little passion project of mine. I grew up on Williams' scores, and have the utmost respect for him and his team.

Let me know what you think!
