"The Six Star Wars Films ... John Williams ... Silva (2008)"Silva Screen Records once again has outdone themselves with "THE SIX STAR WARS FILMS", all the splendor of this composer on 14 Tracks --- Williams creates visual moods for each film he scores...all individually wrapped-up into one neat package...just the way "film-score-buffs" like 'em...flavored with cues of action, adventure, mystery, romance, sentimental and suspense, the list could go on --- Every track moves you --- Each track comes back with a memory as the preceeding track ends --- It flows naturally and perfectly from score to score --- If you're looking for a piece of music to capture your heart and a deeper meaning of the film...you've found it --- Silva Screen's release traces several decades of Star Wars film music --- featuring "The City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra" --- conducted by Mr. Paul Bateman, Mr. James Fitzpatrick and Mr. Nic Raine (as always outstanding)...performing 14 selections, close to a full hour of symphonic suites with a full orchestra sound.
John Towner Williams (born February 8, 1932) is an American composer, conductor and pianist. In a career that spans six decades, Williams has composed many of the most famous film scores in history, including those for Jaws, Star Wars, Superman, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, the Indiana Jones films, Jurassic Park, Hook, Schindler's List, Born on the Fourth of July, and Harry Potter --- In addition, he has composed theme music for four Olympic Games, NBC Nightly News, and numerous television series and concert pieces --- He served as the principal conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra from 1980 to 1993, and is now the orchestra's laureate conductor.
Williams is a five-time winner of the Academy Award --- With 45 Academy Award nominations, Williams is, together with composer Alfred Newman, the second most nominated individual after Walt Disney --- He was inducted into the Hollywood Bowl Hall of Fame in 2000, and was a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors in 2004.(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
