Saw the film on TV last night. Better than some of the reviews of the time. The music John Williams composed for the film is so gorgeous. Williams in non-epic mode is just as wonderful. His music for the film PETE AND TILLIE is also on the CD. A belated thank you to Varèse.    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 11:44 AM     By:   James MacMillan   (Member) So, The Accidental Tourist is next up on the old turntable??    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 11:52 AM     By:   cody1949   (Member) So, The Accidental Tourist is next up on the old turntable?? Why not !    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 11:53 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) I love his tinkly, laid-back quiet reflective scores like these and ALWAYS & STEPMOM.    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 11:55 AM     By:   cody1949   (Member) So, The Accidental Tourist is next up on the old turntable?? Why not ! Turntables are for vinyl fans. I will play my CD.    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 12:36 PM     By:   Tom Servo   (Member) All of the smaller, more intimate character scores mentioned here are winners. It's the side of Williams that so often gets overlooked by the general public and it's great to be able to demonstrate his immense range playing something Stanley & Iris or The Accidental Tourist.    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 12:57 PM     By:   Mike Esssss   (Member) It's a slightly different species of quiet and reflective scoring, but I'd put PRESUMED INNOCENT in there as well.    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 1:14 PM     By:   Graham   (Member) The Book Thief Graham    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 1:24 PM     By:   afn   (Member) SABRINA ALWAYS PRESUMED INNOCENT Three of his best and most listenable scores - but there are so many...    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 1:30 PM     By:   cody1949   (Member) All of the smaller, more intimate character scores mentioned here are winners.

You are so right !    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 4:20 PM     By:   Adam.   (Member) I absolutely agree. I find myself coming back to this soundtrack (S&I) as often as his more well known blockbusters.    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 5:48 PM     By:   lacoq   (Member) The River also has many beautiful quiet moments......some real gems!    Posted:   Feb 25, 2020 - 7:58 PM     By:   EdG   (Member) All great scores. Among them STANLEY & IRIS is a personal favorite. I'd love an expanded/complete SABRINA some day...    Posted:   Mar 9, 2020 - 1:40 PM     By:   Thor   (Member) I love Williams in this mode. Far more than the big muscular action music these days. Disregarding for a moment the suave 60s cocktail lounge scores (which are also often quiet and reflective, but in a slightly different mode), you can't go wrong with these 'quiet and reflective' scores (for the most part): JANE EYRE, PETE'N'TILLIE, MONSIGNOR, EMPIRE OF THE SUN, THE RIVER, THE ACCIDENTAL TOURIST, ALWAYS, PRESUMED INNOCENT, STANLEY & IRIS, SABRINA, STEPMOM, ANGELA'S ASHES, THE TERMINAL. THE BOOK THIEF fits the bill as far as the style is concerned, but I don't really like it -- in one ear and out the other -- so I'm not counting it here.     General Discussion:  A JOHN WILLIAMS QUIET AND REFLECTIVE SCORE    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1
