He will be replaced both at the Hollywood Bowl and Tanglewood. https://www.berkshireeagle.com/arts_and_culture/berkshirelandscapes/john-williams-bows-out-of-tanglewood-dates-cites-recovery-from-illness/article_c869c036-22a5-11ef-901b-6bfe911ab223.html    Posted:   Jun 5, 2024 - 6:03 AM     By:   AdoKrycha007   (Member)    Posted:   Jun 5, 2024 - 9:20 AM     By:   ST-321   (Member) I wish him a speedy recovery!    Posted:   Jun 5, 2024 - 6:31 PM     By:   ZapBrannigan   (Member) I wish him a speedy recovery! Indeed. And if they're getting David Newman to fill in, it's still a pretty good show.    Posted:   Jun 6, 2024 - 8:38 AM     By:   ST-321   (Member) Indeed. And if they're getting David Newman to fill in, it's still a pretty good show. Oh, I agree. David Newman always does a super job conducting.    Posted:   Jun 6, 2024 - 4:13 PM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) [Nerd alert! Needlessly snarky remark to follow] If they were performing the likes of EL CID, PICNIC and FOREVER AMBER, I wouldn't give a dinky-darn if it were conducted by Vanna White. I'd be there for the music, not the dude with the baton.    Posted:   Jun 6, 2024 - 4:22 PM     By:   SchiffyM   (Member) If they were performing the likes of EL CID, PICNIC and FOREVER AMBER, I wouldn't give a dinky-darn if it were conducted by Vanna White. I'd be there for the music, not the dude with the baton. And the music being poorly performed would still be the music you’re there for?    Posted:   Jun 6, 2024 - 4:26 PM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) If they were performing the likes of EL CID, PICNIC and FOREVER AMBER, I wouldn't give a dinky-darn if it were conducted by Vanna White.

There's been plenty-o-orchestras who gave performances where they paid zero attention to the conductor.    Posted:   Jun 6, 2024 - 4:39 PM     By:   EdG   (Member) From the Hollywood Bowl: Due to a recent health concern, from which he is expected to make a full recovery, John Williams will be unable to perform. Maestro Williams originally planned to share the podium with conductor David Newman, who at John’s request, has graciously agreed to conduct the entire concert. The program will otherwise remain unchanged. Let me say having David Newman as a conductor for the whole concert will be a real treat. He's extraordinary.    Posted:   Jun 6, 2024 - 5:22 PM     By:   GoblinScore   (Member) From the Hollywood Bowl: Due to a recent health concern, from which he is expected to make a full recovery, John Williams will be unable to perform.

My best Missus gifted me with tickets to this. Shattered JW isn't conducting. Elated David Newman took over as he is not only an impeccably fine conductor, an astute & excellent composer.    Posted:   Jun 11, 2024 - 7:53 AM     By:   kingtolkien   (Member) So unfortunate that he has health issues and can't conduct, but let us not forget that he is 92 years old. I think that he should focus more on composing and leave the conducting to others. Of course orchestras love to have him because he sells tickets and some people may have the chance to be in one of his concerts for the first time but I think he should stop conducting. Even composing may be difficult at his age. Of course the interaction with younger people in the orchestra and with an audience gives joy and energy to an artist. Anyway, I hope for his best.    Posted:   Jun 11, 2024 - 9:02 AM     By:   Prince Damian   (Member) That's a ploy. It's his dominoes final.    Posted:   Jun 11, 2024 - 9:20 AM     By:   Gonzo   (Member) Chicago now cancelled for October. Replacement conductor at least.    Posted:   Jun 11, 2024 - 9:41 AM     By:   Luc Van der Eeken   (Member) Chicago now cancelled for October. Replacement conductor at least. Wow, that's 4 months from now...This sounds serious. Maybe 'The legacy of John Williams' or 'John Williams Fan Network' can shed some light the current situation.    Posted:   Jun 11, 2024 - 9:50 AM     By:   Prince Damian   (Member) When you're 90+ things take longer.    Posted:   Jun 11, 2024 - 10:40 AM     By:   c8   (Member) This sounds serious.

Agreed.    Posted:   Jun 12, 2024 - 7:48 AM     By:   townerbarry   (Member) Plus Johnny T …Got a couple Steven Spielberg films to score. A Frank Bullitt Project. And another very secret Spielberg project…everyone is hushed on this film…ssshhh    Posted:   Jun 12, 2024 - 7:52 AM     By:   Prince Damian   (Member) The particulars of John Williams' health are none of our business. It doesn't hurt to ask, as long as it's civil.     General Discussion: John Williams cancels forthcoming concerts    < 1 2  > >>  Go to page:  1 2   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2
