Just saw John Williams at USC
« on: October 19, 2007, 02:27:42 AM »
Composer of the soundtracks for Star Wars, Harry Potter, Schindler's list, E.T., Indiana Jones, Memoirs of a Geisha, The Cowboys, and alot more.

He conducted the Thornton Symphony Orchestra in a performance of most of his most famous works.

He debuted a new horn concerto he wrote, but most dopely he did the Imperial March, Yoda's Theme, and Main theme from Star Wars.

this shit was fucking dope. the man is a genius and I'm glad I got to see him conduct an orchestra in doing his works before he died.

His new concerto was all right, it had no real memorable melodies but he did some cool textured stuff with drums and bass. It was pretty percussive.

You're talking about Howard Shore, I believe. But he doesn't compare to John Williams, IMO. I mean come on... you're talking about a guy who's not only composed the Star Wars and Harry Potter themes (among other great themes) but has also composed every Steven Spielberg (another legend) film but one. As you may already know, Spielberg's resume includes JAWS, Close Encounters of The Third Kind, The Indiana Jones Trilogy (soon to be a fourth), the first two Jurassic Park films, Schindler's List, E.T., Saving Private Ryan among other greats!
