Title John Williams: A Composer's Life
Author Tim Greiving
Call Number ML410.W71335 G74 2025
Location 3rd Floor Music
Rating Highly Recommended
Book Review The first definitive biography about John Williams that the illustrious composer himself approved and agreed to be extensively interviewed, "John Williams" covers his nearly 8 decade career composing music. This novel introduces readers to how Williams approached and processed many of his famous and lesser-known film and television compositions, as well as his classical and jazz pieces that are not widely known or discussed. Readers also get a little insight into John Williams' life outside of music and how it shaped his career.
