It would have to include the main theme as all the other scores before have. I don’t know whether I’d like his signature sound on it though. He is more worthy of action films just like Danny Elfman is known for horror, fantasy and stories by Tim Burton.
@@dreamarcher4018 At times having constraints on a project can be rewarding as one works around them. I'm sure he understands he will need to incorporate the Bond Theme, and possibly past ones, but there is still a wide canvas to work on with the rest of the movie... especially with a new Bond in the next movie.
"Is my job the hardest job in the world? ... I've never laid bricks ..." These are the words of a man who is great because he sees himself as one human in a vast collection of humans doing their part, neither one more special than the other, and he appreciates the work even in a brick layer. To be that humble after having accomplished that much means he has zero ego. His music speaks for itself. Thank you John for entertaining our ears and breathing life into movies.
I think to be composing for an orchestra one would have to see themself as one human in a vast collection of humans doing their part. Every member of the orchestra has their part.
Wow he doesn't even look 90, I thought he was in his early 70s. Absolutely insane, he's also as sharp as a knife. I hope to be this put together at his age. Love you Mr. Williams, you're a legend!
Exactly! He looks like he will reach 100 and I hope he does, at 2:47 he said "Film composing is only 80 years old or 90 years old" so he's basically saying that he's older than the idea of his own job.
@@Peterx648Why should you expect a replacement? John Williams is one of a kind, of course, as is every other composer. Trying to be someone else is the best way to fail as an artist. There are plenty of other brilliant and humble film composers out there who have been carrying the torch each in their own style. Alexandre Desplat, Michael Giacchino, John Powell, Ramin Djawadi to name a few.
Williams shrugs off vanity like no one else. Every interviewer praises him like a godly man, for obvious reasons, and he'll refuse the compliments no matter how kind. He ought to be the definition of integrity.
Amen, not only is he extremely beyond talented; his humbleness and genuine warmth is such an example for all professions and just being a decent human being in general.
John Williams is one of those few people in the movie industry that I wish would live forever. I cannot think of a world where I cannot hear another brand new great musical score made by him. He always delivers!
@@tbass94 That's certainly one perspective. If you continue to be happy there's no reason to not want to continue living. I hope John is happy doing whatever he does and I hope he keeps living.
Not just one of the best film composers, One of the best composers in the last 100 years for me. If he wants to write a Bond score, let him write a Bond score!
The fact that this guy is 90, still writing, still conducting and explaining music to us is incredible. May he continue to work for many more years because he is awesome
Greatest film score composer to have lived. Bernard Herrmann, Henry Mancini, James Horner, Hans Zimmer all greats. All superb. John Williams is a genius though and he's the best of the best.
And to think, he has said that he prefers to write more jazzy styles like Tin-Tin’s score, coming from his piano days and time with the Boston Pops. For it not to be his main area of writing boggles my mind even more!
John's one of the most important creators in film history. His work is etched into all of our minds. Consciously and even subconsciously. Brilliant talent.
If we had to choose just one person to be inmortal in this planet that chosen one should be John Williams. But not only cause of his endless genius in its craft, but because of his endless humanity and humbleness. Some creeps scoring now in hollywood should learn from him, not just music but of how to be a better person.
Here's the best way I can describe the impact of Williams' music: his themes were the soundtrack to my childhood. When I had my own children thirty years later, his themes were also the soundtrack of their childhood, including many of the same themes.
Yes he does and he is not looking or coming off as 90! He is in his full strength and STILL working and sounding wonderful! What an example of a blessed life!
It’s impossible for me to pick a favourite of his. I’ll think “Star Wars” but then my mind goes to Jaws, Superman, Harry Potter, Schindler’s List, even JFK. He has the most Oscar Nominations of any living person, and the second most overall just behind Walt Disney.
A most remarkable human being. So humble after all his tremendous success and out-of-this-world accomplishments for more than five decades by now (e.g., more than 50 Academy Award nominations). And such an impressive personality, and still that active in his field at age 90. Wishing him all the best! ❤
What a true gentleman. I am an orchestra teacher at a high school and enjoyed picking some ideas from this interview. Particularly, when he said "the softer we played it, the scarier it seemed to be" regarding the Jaws theme 5:39
oh, he's such a sweet, old master of his craft! I saw him conducting the Vienna Philharmonics in 2022, he was standing less than two meters away from me, I will never forget.
Truly the greatest film composer ever. Sure, there are many films I barely remember but he has made so many memorable, beautiful scores that elevates everything
A gentle man of incredible talent and grace. I hope he truly knows how much joy and emotion his music has given to Billions of people. Thank you Mr Williams.
The end credit theme to 'The Poseidon Adventure' is brilliant and under-appreciated. It presages so much of Williams's brilliance to come. It's his first blockbuster score.
Hear, hear! I just purchased the limited edition of his Disaster Collection which includes The Poseidon Adventure, The Towering Inferno and Earthquake, which I first really heard him through and find great.
@@abdul-khaaliqmuhammad2584 It was the most beautiful and unique experienced I've ever had!! Williams looked so happy and satisfied with the orchestra's performance, I had goosebumps the whole performance, especially during Star Wars song and Hedwig's theme, asbolutely amazing!
@@abdul-khaaliqmuhammad2584 Oh yes!! 'Love's theme' and 'March', both incredible, especially the iconic Superman march that literally everybody knows the sound of.
Those 2 notes in Jaws, fantastic!! Love hearing the audience cheering to the Imperial March and seeing John William's response! I've only seen bits and pieces of Bond flicks through the years but I'd purchase a ticket and watch the entire movie if it was a John Williams score! This was wonderful, thank you!
Also amazing is that at 90, with 3/4 of a century of writing music, he is _still_ not a has-been. He's still very much in the trenches, fighting and producing wonderful new scores.
John Williams conducted the Berliner Philharmoniker in 2021. Released in 2022 "The Berlin Concert" went to the top of the German album charts. This recording also bagged the title of the best selling classical music album of 2022 here. At no. 5 was "John Williams in Vienna", at no. 19 "Williams: Violin Concerto No. 2 & Selected Film Themes" 👏
What an absolute LEGEND of a man, and still maintains the utmost humility and dignity. I wish I'd have the honor to meet him, and gush over the greatness of his work. Amazing.
This is awesome! I hope you can do another interview with John Williams. Part 2, 3, 4, etc. There is so much music by him. Glad you talked about the Superman Theme. One of my favorites.
Mr. John Williams, dearly beloved family friend, the happiest of birthdays and another one has passed, your 91st. At the Hollywood Bowl concert last September you mentioned feeling the love and hoping you’d live to be 100. I second that! I’ve been blessed to know you since you were “Johnny” and, in my many decades career as a studio singer, I was privileged to work with you on several occasions. I even have a claim to fame that you accompanied me on piano when I sang at a fund raising dinner for the school my brothers and your boys attended and I corrected a chord you were playing wrong! LOL imagine that! Thank you for every brilliant note that has nourished my soul for years and years. Live long and prosper! 🖖
What a singularly amazing human being. So gifted, yet so humble and kind. I'm not musically inclined in the slightest, but speaking as a mere consumer of this man's work, he's absolutely one of my heroes. I could listen to him speak for hours and hours, honestly. I'm lucky to have been able to watch him conduct a symphony orchestra I think...twice? Maybe three times, over the years. To be in the same space as him is a spellbinding experience.
I saw John Williams retiring for film scoring after Jurassic Park and Schindler's List thid year but I can't let him die here and 1993. He still alive.
He's a musical genius who has enriched the lives of hundreds of millions of people, and who probably will continue to do so for centuries to come. This guy is too humble.
John Barry to John Williams. Legend to living Legend. If anyone can do it, it's Williams. Arguable GOAT of modern film composition. Also, love the host, Andrew's enthusiasm and respect, which makes sense given his love of music.
In the early 1980's myself and some friends were swimming at low tide and I started doing the da dum da dum song from jaws! They all screamed at me to shut up!!! There wasn't an orchestra! But they all knew what I was referencing! Powerful real and emotional! Just two notes!!!!! That's John Williams 😊.
I'm OVER THE MOON, Mr Williams is finally going to get his honourary knighthood. I'm not sure if it was up to our beloved Queen to grant it, but those two are my greatest heroes & I'm so glad she may have. I've written to politicians to get this man a knighthood for a few years and finally he gets one. I'm just scared we'll lose him soon too !!
John Williams on his compositions for Star Wars - "I did the best I could." He then goes on to praise the late Maurice Murphy, the principle trumpeter in the original score, for his invaluable contribution to the classic opening main titles. Here is a man who is humble beyond his years! He cannot countenance his own inclusion in the great names of classical music because of this deep humility, but rest assured, in hundreds of years, the name and music of John Williams will still be ranked alongside them!
I think that is a joy to him, having the best of the best bringing his musical ideas alive to a new level. Any composer’s score is limited or magnified by those who perform it, and his partnership with LSO was something special in that regard.
Loved this, John Williams, such a legend what a composer! I feel he is the David Attenbourough of music! Stirring up such memories and emotions that most of us can tap into through most of our lives enjoying film ❤️
He and Spielberg had wanted to make a 007 movie for decades. It would've been interesting, I'm sure. Williams' approach to the music would be undoubtedly great.
Jeez. For 90 years old, Mr. Williams is extremely coherent and as sharp, if not sharper, than he ever was. Many thank, Mr. Williams! Many happy more to come I pray!
His music is the score of my life since I'm a child, when I listen the Jurassic Parc soundtrack for the first time (I was 4, I'm 34). His compositions have been with me ever since. It's still my favorite music album ever. And he's my favorite artist.
I wish we could call you Sir John. You have had a broader impact that the original Sir John Williams. Thank-you for your gift! you are the Mozart of our age!!! You're right about Mr Murphy; that first chord is a moment in my life! You are a colossal genius!!!
Jurassic Park is my all-time favorite movie. During my childhood, I'd watch it over and over again. Just hearing the sample of the main theme made me choke up a little.
Very humble man, the music world and the movie world wouldn't be the same without him. Some of my favorites of his are the lesser known pieces, such as "The Patriot" soundtrack, a very moving track. Also Saving Private Ryan and "Across the Stars" from Star Wars. (The most moving track in the Star Wars trilogy to me.)I could list dozens, but the point is, the man's a legend. We gotta appreciate him while he's around still.
Definitely the greatest film composer of all time. No question. Most great get a couple famous themes, this guy puts them all to shame, he has the most Oscar Nominations of any living person.
One of the most talented and humble people I’ve ever witnessed. Every other film composer I’ve listened too looks up to him as a genius. I’m just hoping that Disney don’t wreck Indy 5 and JW retires in style. I’ve love him to do a Bond film. He’d love it, enjoy it and I’d love to see what he would come up because we all know it would be different but brilliant.
Why has nobody done a video / film documentary on him while we still have him? A proper documentary just focused on him and his work.
Yes! I was just thinking the same thing!
there is a BBC documentary from 30 years ago. This guy is a relic of hte past present and future. But I agree wouldnt hurt to have another docu.
RIGHT?! He deserves it!
YES
Whoever made HBO's Spielberg doc should do it!
If the man wants a Bond score, give him a bond score. I love John Williams and all his work. He is truly the best. And such a wonderful man
It would have to include the main theme as all the other scores before have. I don’t know whether I’d like his signature sound on it though. He is more worthy of action films just like Danny Elfman is known for horror, fantasy and stories by Tim Burton.
I'm sure he would do great but I fear I won't happen anymore now .
Amen. I am not a big Bond fan, but would love Williams' take on Bond.

What a lovely and true comment. Well said. May the universe bless JW
I think to be composing for an orchestra one would have to see themself as one human in a vast collection of humans doing their part. Every member of the orchestra has their part.
Bro what? His job is obviously not the hardest job in the world. Is that all it takes to impress you??
Wow he doesn't even look 90, I thought he was in his early 70s. Absolutely insane, he's also as sharp as a knife. I hope to be this put together at his age. Love you Mr. Williams, you're a legend!

Music makes him alive
I couldn't agree more
Music has a special life force that helps maintain our molecular structure. I bet it’s helped his brain stay incredibly sharp.
Music, that which stimulates his imagination, enriches his passion and brings him so much joy, keeps him young!
His contributions to cinema and pop culture is immeasurable.
Humble man for being one of the most important people in film history. At 90 still incredibly articulate. Amazing person.
As a retired Marine Band arranger, I've met him, and yes...he a most gracious gentleman. May he live forever.
And he's always been this way and never changed. There are no words for how I feel about this man and what he has given to my life.
@@LyleFrancisDelp Hear, hear!

You can just tell how emotional the orchestra gets when playing his music. John Williams is a legend.
No film composer has crafted as many iconic classic scores and created a legacy that stands the test of time like John's work. A Master and a Legend.

John Williams exemplifies that rare person whose brilliance is matched by his humbleness.
To still have that spark for his age is quite extraordinary.

Even from his early work on TV’s Lost In Space, his music stands out. What a talent and what a contribution he has made to cinema and our lives.

Also Saving Private Ryan and "Across the Stars" from Star Wars. (The most moving track in the Star Wars trilogy to me.)I could list dozens, but the point is, the man's a legend. We gotta appreciate him while he's around still.
Still incredibly sharp minded at age 90. A true legend of his field. Thanks John for all the great music.
I hope to live to at least 90 and that I'm like John Williams at 90.
A LIVING TREASURE!
the legend. One of the few people of notoriety i wish I could meet just to thank him for all his work.
I love this man. We are all very lucky to have heard his compositions. ICONIC films. Does not look nor sound his age.
A 90 year old that can be so amazing? incredible.clearly music is great for your brain!
Definitely the greatest film composer of all time. No question. Most great get a couple famous themes, this guy puts them all to shame, he has the most Oscar Nominations of any living person.
What a wonderfully eloquent man! I could listen to him for hours.
One of the most memorable concerts was sitting behind the Philadelphia Orchestra in the conductors circle watching him conduct his music for 2 hours.
You can actually feel the miracle of his music.
Glad to see him mention his score for Images, which is rarely talked about. His most experimental and underrated piece of music in my book.
Dear mr. John Williams I want to personally thank you for hanging around!!
I love this man. I wish he knew how well he's positively shaped life for anyone that's had the fortune to hear his work.
One of the most talented and humble people I’ve ever witnessed. Every other film composer I’ve listened too looks up to him as a genius. I’m just hoping that Disney don’t wreck Indy 5 and JW retires in style. I’ve love him to do a Bond film. He’d love it, enjoy it and I’d love to see what he would come up because we all know it would be different but brilliant.
Currently watching while I wait to get in the front of the queue of a John Williams concert wish me luck everyone
Let’s hurry up and have a new James Bond movie and give to this man the soundtrack
