Music from the Meister

Leah and I were at the Lincoln Center last night attending John Williams’ performance with the New York City Philharmonic.

It was fantastic hearing the master of cinematic composing conducting his own music. The program contains a wide varieties of scores from John Williams’ collection. I was disappointed that Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Born on the Forth of July were not on the program. But the performance of the theme from Schindler’s List was excellent and we were treated with three encore performances, one of which was the Star Wars main theme!

It was, by far, the best birthday present I have had.
