John Williams: The B-sides
Program: Reel Music
Aired: Friday, January 27, 2017 @ 9:00 pm
Hosted by Matt Rogers
John Williams has 50 Oscar nominations, but a lot of the attention tends to be on just four or five of his most popular scores. That leaves a lot of great music on the shelf. We’re dusting off some of the other John Williams scores—the B-sides. Hear selections from Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Empire of the Sun, Memoirs of a Geisha and more.
