In Conversation with John Williams and Deborah Rutter | The John Williams 90th Birthday Celebration

[@jcp1984again]

He really doesn't seem like 90 years old! He's sharp, he's present, he's lively! May this genius live way over 100 years.

[@handznet]

We all hope

[@captainbeastazoid7084]

Brilliant man

[@delcarmencole2454]

John Williams is the Ultimate School of Rock, Face Melter!

John Williams put the emotion into the greatest movies of all time. Legend, genius, icon... no word or description can explain what this man means to us all

[@S.R.Jackson-v9v]

“For most of us, music is like oxygen. It is the element that animates us and supports us and keeps us alive… Why are we together today? Because of music. That’s why. We love it. It means something. We don’t know what the inspiration is or how we could describe it, but it’s part of our breathing and inspiring and finding our air and breathing.” I wouldn’t survive without music, and if you took it away from me, you probably wouldn’t either. 😬Music is the spirit’s oxygen.

[@ralphmiller2265]

John Williams is an American treasure. He is humble, friendly, gentle natured and has that ability to help bring out the best in another. To say he is a great guy just doesn't do it justice. He is a GOOD man, something we are all supposed to be reaching for.

I just went to John Williams 90th Birthday Celebration event live at Tanglewood. It was an amazing event, it was awesome to finally get to see him conduct in person even though it was only for one song. I Also had the extreme honor to actually meet and thank John Williams in person there.

[@elmarburgholzer4089]

A humble man, who is open-minded enough to accept all the influences and ways life and music gave him! That puts him in the Olympus of composers.

[@Plathismo]

The greatest living creator of music. Full stop.

[@simonsmatthew]

John Williams is a miracle. The J S Bach of film music.

[@deniserodgers9272]

So wonderful hearing John Williams share a snippet of his life.

[@MattToth-lw5ph]

What a great interview! Long live John Williams. He is a true genius.

[@donmorton7282]

What a wonderful segment where we learn a lot about the great John Williams and the host is outstanding. Excellent questions and anecdotes. Interestingly, we were able to go to a performance where a live orchestra played while showing ET a few years ago and It was an amazing experience. I highly recommend if you get the chance to go to this type of performance.

[@theempire00]

Amazing interview that gave us a peak into his extraordinary life!

[@rpvee]

[@shhtha]

I shed a tear at the end

Felicidades señor Williams no se qué más decir es sensacional que haya compuesto otra vez Indiana Jones gracias por su legado y por su sencillez.

[@itznoxy7193]

Thank you for sharing

[@Unus1Mundus]

John Williams, the last of the great composers!

[@TB1M1]

This was brilliant. Long live JW

[@jedijones]

I like how he's confident enough to just say whatever he wants to.

[@OmerVexler]

What a legend.

[@etiennedelaunois1737]

So modest man. Not because he wants to be because you "have" to be modest but just because he is so focus on doing his job well that he just never rest on his knowledge. He is right music is everything in a world where culture is destroyed by politics because their bankers friends persuade them that we need more business students than artists. So artistry today is matter of rich people coming from a good background. There are so many talents in more modest backgrounds as well! All of this require modesty!

[@cameronskye94]

This dude should have started a podcast 10 years ago

[@BenjaminGessel]

That E.T. bike scene toward the end of the movie…. Other than Henry Thomas, I think C. Thomas Howell was one of the actors there, one of the buddies of the older brother. 🤔🤔 I remember the other guys, I just can’t remember their names offhand…

[@j.a.h.vandelaak3477]

Great interview, luckily not the same same questions as usual about Jaws and stuff.

[@Camop-iz9kt]

John should be allowed to ride into space, like Shatner did last year.

[@pimmagrimm]

Maybe sat in a basket on the front of a bicycle

[@DavidRLentz]

John Williams, I wish I could tell you personally

[@WillNewton10]

Oh my, the reverb on the S’s

[@Fab4Forever]

🤟

[@miamicool666]

The Master.
