O zestawie Complete Philips Recordings

Complete Philips Recordings - box (21 CD)

Kariera dyrygencka Johna Williamsa pozostaje nieco w cieniu jego filmowych dokonań. Tymczasem stając na czele The Boston Pops Orchestra, pięciokrotny laureat Oscara wprowadził muzykę filmową na sale koncertowe, co znacznie podniosło jej wartość artystyczną oraz przyniosło jej wielkie uznanie środowiska klasycznego. Kompozytor stworzył nowe aranżacje orkiestrowe popularnych klasyków i rozszerzył podstawowy repertuar orkiestry, łącząc w ten sposób różne „podgatunki”. To niesamowite dziedzictwo zostało uhonorowane przez Decca Classics w nowej, limitowanej edycji kolekcjonerskiej, która uświetni dziewięćdziesiąte urodziny artysty przypadające w 2022 roku.
