Maestro of the Movies: A Tribute to John Williams

Boston Pops Keith Lockhart, conductor

In the words of Steven Spielberg, “without John Williams, bicycles do not fly, nor do brooms in Quidditch matches or heroes in red capes. Dinosaurs do not walk the earth. Sharks do not terrorize idyllic summer beaches. And Jedi do not return. Without the magic of John Williams, audiences do not wonder, or weep, or believe…”
