This updated and revised edition of Emilio Audissino's groundbreaking volume takes stock of Williams's creative process and achievements in music composition, including the most recent sequels in the film franchises that made him famous. Audissino discusses Williams's unique approach to writing by examining his neoclassical style in context, demonstrating how he revived and revised classical Hollywood music. This volume details Williams's lasting impact on the industry and cements his legacy as one of the most important composers in movie history. A must for fans and film-music lovers alike.
