SILVA SCREEN RECORDS MARKS COMPOSER JOHN WILLIAMS’S 80th BIRTHDAY (8th February 2012) BY RELEASING A COMPREHENSIVE 6 CD SET FEATURING 87 TRACKS AND OVER 7 HOURS OF MUSIC
Silva Screen Records Proudly Presents
The Music Of John Williams - The Definitive Collection
Since 1972, when he won his first Oscar, John Williams has received 47 Oscar nominations including 5 wins, 2 Emmys, 3 Golden Globes, 7 Baftas and more then twenty Gold and Platinum Records. Today, he is one of the most respected and acclaimed composers in Hollywood.
Perhaps the film composer of the biggest number of instantly recognisable themes and motifs, John Williams's immense musical output has now secured him a “cultural icon” status.
2012 also marks 40 years since John Williams and Steven Spielberg first met and started a hugely successful collaboration lasting to this day. Spielberg's composer of choice, Williams penned the unforgettable music for Jaws, Schindler's List, the four Indiana Jones films, E.T., Saving Private Ryan, as well as now classic themes for the Star Wars series, Superman and the first three Harry Potter films.
The immense quantity and quality of John Williams's film scores has propelled his work into the top All-Time Worldwide Box Office films list - he scored 16 of them, more than any other composer. In 2005, the American Film Institute unveiled its list of the Top 25 Film Scores of all time and John Williams features at #1 (Star Wars), # 6 (Jaws) and # 14 (E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial).
“John certainly has the most considerable impact because his music immediately bypasses the brain and goes straight to your heart. That's the way he's always been... an amazing talent."
- Steven Spielberg
The collection is performed by The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.
