The Legend of John Williams

A monumental collection dedicated to the music of John Williams as part of the 'Écoutez le Cinéma' series, produced by Stéphane Lerouge. The 20-CD collection presents an overview of Maestro Williams' career, spanning over six decades, from his earliest works of the 1960s to the more recent works and collaborations. In addition, the collection also presents selections from recordings with the Boston Pops, and a number of John Williams' concert works, including the rare 'Sinfonietta for Wind Ensemble' with the Eastman Wind Ensemble; and recordings with Anne-sophie Mutter, the Recording Arts Orchestra of Los Angeles, Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the Berliner Philharmoniker. The ultimate, essential box set: an exploration of all the territories of the Williams continent. Better: the quintessence of a legend in 22 hours of music.
