John Williams Is the Movies!
No other composer has scored so many magical movie moments as John Williams. The five time Oscar winner has been writing film and television music for over 50 years, and his scores have firmly embedded themselves in the public consciousness (you could probably hum at least six or seven of them right now).
He's best known for his work with Steven Spielberg, providing the music for all but three of the director's movies, from the panic-inducing theme for Jaws, the heroic soundtrack for the Indiana Jones movies and the haunting cello-led music for Schindler's List. His other work includes Star Wars, Home Alone, Superman, Nixon ,TV's Lost in Space, and of course, the chiming, magical music of the Harry Potter series. Hear a selection of Wiiliams' finest moments, including his score from for Star Wars: Force Awakens, at this concert conducted by Lawrence Loh.
