All Hail the godlyness of John Williams!


Star Wars composer John Williams told CNN.com to expect echoes of the music from the first film in the upcoming prequel Episode III, which wraps up the saga. Williams said he hopes to use hints of some of the musical themes from Episode IV: A New Hope to link the three prequel movies with the original trilogy.

"I think working backwards, some musical hints like that will be appropriate," Williams told the site. "I am looking forward to bringing all those thematic fragments together in the final episode of Star Wars and to pick up what opportunities it'll have for new material, also to sort of round out a whole corpus of musical themes that are all interrelated and connected." Episode III is set to begin production this year, with a 2005 release date.

MIYU,

How is that different from any other music that he composes?

STAR WARS™ & SUPERMAN™ are virtually identical to each other, & don't even get me started on RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK™...!

The last music he composed that sounded unique unto itself was JAWS™.

Because John Williams is a Gawd to Band Nerd who enjoy performing his music... especially we Brass... We never had the opportunity to play one of his scores on the field, but we had a nice little medley of some of scores to play with, Plus we did one of his marces which I loved playing
