      Spielberg's a superb visualist, coaxes compelling performances out of actors, is great with camera movement and editing tempo. This makes his films a natural for Williams' music. The images cut together in a fluid, flowing way already have a lift and a rythm. It's a matter of filling in the right notes. Williams is the note God.

    always get a kick when John sort of downplays the Superman movie as something that's tongue in cheek, and not taking itself too seriously - and yet from the opening moment we see the Planet Krypton, John blows us away with music of such profound majesty and sublime beauty that we know we are entering a world of music and film making that is truly extraordinary

    "Maybe we shouldn't shoot for the stars. Maybe we should find joy in every simple task we're given." rang true with me. I thought I'd be the next Steven Spielberg, until I was given the chance to direct short scenes of children performing at a local arts academy level, and I found it a bit overwhelming. The kids were great, willing to learn, but they were not professional actors, and I was handed a script on the day, told to "go get 'em", went right into filming with no rehearsal time or time for me to grasp what the material was about, had to have the scene shot in 3-4 hours when the kids' parents would pick them up. Now I'm finding pleasure and enjoying some financial success in shooting and submitting video clips to agencies like Shutterstock and Pond 5. I can work at my own leisurely pace and capture whatever I want, how I want. I'm delighted when a clip sells.

      I noticed that he is almost always trying to explain that there's no magic in it, just long hard work, redoing things, adjusting them gradually, over & over, until it get's close enough to offer it to the producer, then he says it's still never perfect, and you always think you can do better.
      Most good artists respond this way when they get the 'awe and wonder' or "how do you do it" from an interviewer, because it's really an attempt to say "it must be so easy for YOU" as if to excuse everyone who doesn't want to work long hours at something with no assurance that anything will come of it. Most people cannot fathom risking sitting by a blank canvas until they work out something they never could have just imagined right off the bat.
      JW is always trying to say "I can't do magic either: that's why I have to spend so much time fussing with it, throwing away 1 idea after another, until something seems to maybe have potential, then I explore that idea, keep changing parts of it, sometimes going back & forth between 2 things I can't decide on....there's no magic, only what comes after long struggle and experimentation. Have you ever actually tried this process of wrestling with possibilities that don't look like anything good yet? And staying with it until something starts to seem viable?"
      He also noted how simple so many of the main themes are, and yet how much adjustment and fumbling went into them. But no matter how many times he tries to lay it out as something that anyone with a willingness to spend the time at it, can do, the audience still prefers to walk away with their canned "awe & wonder" response, and preserve their "only special artistic people can do it" philosophy, so they'll never have to consider their own potential.

    There is NOBODY like John Williams! Yes its movie soundtracks but he belongs besides the greats of all time, Bach, Beethoven, etc. Wow. I still get moved even to tears from these musical masterpieces. True Genius. That word is reserved for people like for this guy. Spielberg is right, none of his films would be nearly as powerful without the magic of Johnny Williams. We are so blessed by this man's contribution to the world. Its stuff like this that makes life worth living.

    What I find so interesting about these videos is that you often see a connection among great artists. The way John Williams and Hans Zimmer score a father-son/daughter relationship, for example, is premised on the same criterion (intimacy within a broader framework), but their respective concepts of intimacy are so, so different, yet equally moving. This to me demonstrates the universal nature of music, whereby different styles can convey the same concept in light of our shared humanity. I really enjoy these videos, thank you.

    When 6 year old kis in New Zealand want me to teach them to play Hedwigs Theme, Superman Theme and Star Wars Theme on guitar, John Williams gets my attention. As far as generations of filmgoers are concerned, John Williams is the composer, orchestrator and conductor of this century. Thank you for the great video Evan. This is the first of yours I have seen. And far from the last.
    22:53
    Interesting thing about that (humming the Indiana Jones Theme) a very simple little sequence of notes, 23:01 but I spend more time on those little bits of musical grammar, to get them just right 23:08 so that they seem inevitable, seem like they've always been there, they're so simple, and 23:12
    I don't know how many permutations I will go through with six-note motif like that, one note down, one note up and 23:18 spend a lot of time on these little simplicities, which are often the hardest things to capture, I think for anybody.
    What do I like about this quote? The insight into the time he spends on motifs, melodic contour permutations and little simplicities. Genius.

    A wonderful compilation, and a great deal of fun. Thank you!
    Irrespective of creative genius, Hollywood star quality, or Whatever- I personally feel Steven Spielberg one of the most charismatic individuals I have now been seeing on TH-cam videos. My first exposure to this was watching Watch the Skies! -a hour long documentary on 1950s movie Sci-fi. His descriptions of filling the bathtubs with water as a young person during The Cuban Missile Crisis while his parents went to a party was especially endearing.
    Spielberg's comments of Jaws owing a great deal to Maestro Williams' score for the success of the movie I definitely agree with. I am reminded of an interview with Bela Lugosi, Jr. in which he describes going to movies as a kid with friends. They would get uncomfortable while watching Bela's scary films, but to his son "I wasn't scared at All- it was my father up there on the screen."
    I thought of that during my research of when Jaws first came to the theaters in the mid-1970s, once the movie theater audience would hear that shark theme, frequently there would be people who would get up and leave. It was just too darn SCARY!

    He's absolutely right that there is no "eureka!" moment. There's one piano sonata I wrote in college that got one or two notes tweaked every time I listened to it for 2+ years after I had "finished" it. I've also heard composers such as Williams and Zimmer say that some of their disappointments have been the director's favorites; or people like Jay Z and Eminem who have said they're still disappointed in some of their most famous works. Music touches all of us in different ways.

    I've always loved Mr. Williams's scores. From Superman and Jaws to all of the Star Wars films and beyond. I also think" Born on the 4th of July" should have been included in the top ten list of his film scores. Schindler's List was by far the most touching. At 88 years young, I believe he still has some mileage left. God bless you, sir!

    Interesting to get to hear about the life and experiences of a composer. I think that when we think of musicians today, what immediately springs to mind is the image of young people playing in bands. We often forget about musicians who've had to struggle over years to reach their pinnacle of success, because that's what their work requires them to. It's really nice to get to hear of people who persevered over time to achieve their success (not saying that the young folks in bands didn't work hard!).
