SCMT’s February Composer/Musician of the Month is coming to a close, but just one more interesting fact before we move on. We already know that John Williams is a great film composer, composing some of the most memorable film scores in the last 50 years, but he is also a brilliant conductor. He can be seen conducting many of his film scores across youtube.
For 13 years he was principal conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra. Today he can still be seen conducting the Boston Pops Orchestra and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra at special events.
Conducting is a great musical skill to have, so why not ask your tutor this week if you can learn how to conduct…..
