He already is. He is a titan. He scored all the most famous blockbusters during the 80's and 90's made people think about movie music in a whole new level. He made movie music instantly recognizable. He forced other composers to up their game if they wanted to even keep up. He is the Michael Jackson of composers. Hard to think that there will ever be another one like him in this field.

Spielberg whistling the parts of the Raiders theme made my day!

As much as we missed James Horner when he perished in that plane accident, we will absolutely lose it when Williams goes. He's a national treasure.

This is my favorite music ever. It's special to me, because of how attached I am to the trilogy (Last Crusade especially--it IS the best, and it has by far the best music) but it's my favorite music, period. Forget any song from any decade--this, right here, is in my opinion the best music of all time. I wish I could tell Williams that.

There's no words to express how much I love this guy. I wrote a novel last year, and if by some miracle it were ever made into a movie, John Williams doing the score would be an absolute dream come true. What a genius.

John Williams is a magician! He secretly lives heads of every person ! How many people know the music to Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, Jaws, or Star Wars so well that they can sing it? He makes his motifs so memorable that no one can forget it! He is truly the best composer since Beethoven!!! So inspiring!!!

I absolutely love when John describes his actual writing process. Makes so much sense.

I like how it seems Spielberg cares SO MUCH about the music and he appreciates the effect it has on the movie. He really seems like a genuinely loves it and is very invested. And John Williams is awesome of course.

great advice from john williams. focus on the simple bits, get them right and the rest will follow smoothly

these three characters are the best of the best!

I can't begin to understand where John's inspiration comes from, but I can surely appreciate the end result. He is simply a musical genius. Amazing to see Spielberg and Lucas and John Williams on screen at the same time!

Crystal Skull, like the Star Wars prequels, are more often than not given credit for the good things it had in it because its predecessors were legendary. And Williams could redeem the worst movie ever made in history with his music if he really wanted to.

3:47 I love the music where Toht and his henchmen walk and enter the bar.

When I left the cinema after watching superman in 1978 when I was six , I didn’t run home at lightning speed repeating the dialogue, no I flew home shouting the theme tune , his music is and will always be my life, I can date my life , thanks to the music of John Williams x

I love these John Williams scoring session videos! Every single one of them is a true gem...

Dear God, I love Indiana Jones.

I awesome love John Williams music scoring here.

John is the King!

the music immediately stuck to me when i watched the movie, used to ring in my head in the nightb and during day! I even rent a cd of the soundtrack and listened with headphones ....such brilliant music....

John Williams is a masterclass at making music!

The best film composer ever.. this is a true artist ..

As John Williams implies, it is the basic melody that is the most important aspect of the music. You can have fantastic harmonies, counterpoint, rhythmic devices and other fancy things, however, if there is no obvious "tune" then the music is usually unsuccessful.

10:17 "stfu george, you wanted to have aliens in this movie"

The music when Indy was in the map room at Tanis still gives me chills to this day. I've watched that portion of the movie 1000 times and am always moved.

"...so they seem inevitable." Sounds like he studied from the textbook by Samuel Adler entitled "The Study of Orchestration". Adler says the words about creating music. I have read that book and it's truly amazing and a great reference book when you need it. That book is so essential if you are writing symphonic scores and is used in the universities.

@mydogskips2

I've read the book, along with many others on music theory, harmony, orchestration, etc. but I still can't write music anything like that of Mr. Williams. What John Williams possesses is a musical genius that cannot be taught.

How exciting it must be for both sides, composer and director, to see this being put together for the first time. Exciting for me just to watch this.

John Williams is now the last of the great composers :(

John Williams is the man who score Star Wars films, I like him and James Horner too.

I love whenever that (1:10) part plays during any Indy film!

sonictango I agree.

"Old School" composer at his best!!!

John Williams NAILS IT: the hardest melodies to write are usually the simplest ones, the ones that sound inevitable. This is because so many melodies have already been composed / used, that it is difficult to compose something simple that sounds original and distinctive, and also sounds good.

He is a very kind man. I remembered him doing a special for the late Alexander Courage.

3:01 I'll never understand this bizarre paradox that modern "concert music" should be atonal and experimental such that "people who heard the music without the film might be shocked by it" while music used as a tool for a film is melodic and hummable. If I go to a concert I don't want to be "shocked", I want to hear beautiful music. Several composers have lamented this phenomenon. Michael Kamen once told how not even the musicians like what they are doing (in "concert music").

11:13... "I look forward very much to revisiting all of this in Indiana Jones 4" Little did We know....

Amazing I Like Watching Indian Jones it’s my favorite Movie ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕 I Am his Big Fans Thanks I Like Your Videos Happy Friday everyone Stay Safe And Be Strong Never Give Up Have a Wonderful Night Have a Great Weekend!

John Williams is a music genius !

Without a doubt the greatest composer since Beethoven, and the greatest composer of the 20th century

I ADORE his work. There is no other composer i respect more. He finds the emotionality of every scene.

This man is such an inspiration

Steve your intonation is quite good. I am very impressed.

Wonderful, just wonderful!..

John Williams = extraordinary beauty and perfection in music!!

thank you , great quality, love this guy

"Very simple little sequence of notes... but I spent on those little bits of musical grammer to get them just right so they seem inevitable, seem they've always been there.."

genius

nobody dose it more powerful then john Williams.

John Williams never disappoints, and yet is always very humble. His scores for Raiders/Temple/Crusade/that other one...(ahem), Jaws, Superman, Star Wars elevated those movies to an entirely different plateau. Star Wars, for example, would have come out very differently, I think, if it had been done as a typical "sci-fi" soundtrack. Luckily, Lucas, when asked by John whether or not he wanted that sort of a theme or a more "epic" sound, George went with "epic" and boy, did he get it! The opening 5 seconds of Star Wars _still_ gives me a chill when I hear it. John Williams is probably the person I would like to meet the most in the world. Sure, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Peter Mayhew, Tony Daniels, and all the rest would be stupendously great to meet and chit chat with, but John just weaves magic into these movies like no other. I'm glad he is associated with SW 8 + 9 and Indy 5 (July 19, 2019, baby!). He's 82 now, so I really hope he can hang in there! JW3HH

Willams it’s a damm genius. He scored so many iconic soundtracks. One it’s great but he bests that 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Wildly imaginative music that perfectly traces the action and emotion of a film! Airplane Fight is a virtuoso masterclass--the brass literally slices as the Nazi mechanic swings his wrench at Indy's head!

John Williams is a talented composer. The music he composes seems so natural.

Those are my 3 favorite gentlemen. Without John bikes don't fly, you would never be able to enjoy going to a galaxy far, far, away, & we would never be warned when you are about to be attacked by a great white sharks 🦈🦈

The Grail Knight theme is haunting.

now hes 85 time goes by and he looks still good today :)

Experience minds put together to make a great film

I cant wait to see what Williams does with this last Indy film, if he is actually able to do it of course. Unfortunately its pretty obvious that his age has been coming into play considering how mediocre The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi were (mediocre for John Williams means that its still damn good lol, they just didn't produce anything necessarily memorable/original apart form the same Star Wars themes before), and to be honest he certainly didn't have Lucas or Spielberg to work with on these movies either. But obviously this guy's music can seriously redeem any film he works on. Regardless of the critical flaws of the Star Wars prequels, his music in those films stands as some of the greatest in cinema history.

i like that heroic action and adventure music.

how NONE of the Indiana Jones films won an Oscar for Best Music/Score is waaaaaaaaay beyond me......

an amazing score!

Sometimes I think Spielberg and Lucas would be nothing without John Williams.

You are right Mr. Williams, I know from my own composing experience. It's the little motifs, so important and so hard to capture!

Steven has a respectable level of musical intelligence!! Good pitch when whistling...

When John speaks, you listen

Not everything about the Indiana Jones movies holds up. But the music is just perfect

The greatest composer of all time

The opening of the ark score reminds me a lot of the end of the first mvmt of hindemith's symphony in Bflat. I know Williams likes to reference different composers in his scores so I'd be curious to hear from him if that was the actual inspiration.

Amazing composer.
