Libraries where John Williams film scores are kept.

[filmmusic 3,269]

Does anyone know in what libraries there are Film scores of John Williams?

(except his own library of course)

I know this so far:

-Sibley Music Library: Alexander Courage Collection (Complete Superman sketches, a couple of cues from Hook, Spacecamp, Indiana Jones and Last Crusade, Home Alone, If we Were in love theme, Supermn IV score)

I had seen once information about Schindler's list (i think it was located in MArgaret Herrick's library, I'm not sure, but the reference is not there anymore).

Any others?

Have you tried the library in Ghostbusters?

Well, although I didn't understand what you said at first but I did with the help of a friend, there isn't anything there. I just searched.

and I mean the original handwritten full scores or sketches.

Jo Ann Kane Music has A LOT of his scores (or copies of them at any rate) since they handle most (if not all) of his copyist work when he's recording in LA. However, you're not allowed to make copies and I think you can only get in to study some of his scores if you have permission.

John Williams has his own personal library where he bounds his scores in leather and puts them on a bookcase. As somebody who doesn't conduct or read full scores, I'd love to get a chance to go through that bookcase.

We need ethan hunt or sam fisher to break into Williams home and scan and the books

[Jarbas 1]

That is John Williams' house in LA, so if someone wants to try.

[steb74 53]

but .......

(Sorry konstantinos, I'm dragging this way off topic man!)

[King Mark 3,975]

is that the place where the Harry Potter master tapes are kept?

This topic officially became creepy when someone posted a picture of maestro's home...

Not that I didn't know already...but, still...creepy.

[Xander Harris 9,674]

I just had this weird image of Williams going around his house and setting up traps to keep fanboys out while listening to his Home Alone soundtrack.

[compos24 0]

Now...that's funny.

[Delorean90 47]

Don't you guys know a composer always wins against two idiots?

I definitely did not realize I live within walking distance from the maestro's house. Please, nobody tempt me...

[BLUMENKOHL 1,110]

Tax bill information and real estate data are part of public records.

Just play the pizza boy ....it's the oldest trick in the book!

[Datameister 2,586]

Haha, yes...discovered that a moment later, Blume.

Also, I like your tactic, steb...tempting...very tempting...

[steb74 53]

Ha, oh man you should not have mentioned that you live close by to him ....you'll have me thinking of different things all week now!

[indy4 160]

Wait, have you seen it in person?

[Datameister 2,586]

Not yet...

In all seriousness, though, since I could be any creeper, I just want to be clear that at most all I'll ever do is walk by the house. Probably silly for me to give this disclaimer, but I just don't want my joking to give the wrong impression. (That being said, if the maestro happened to be stretching his legs on his driveway, I might say hello in passing.)

[Datameister 2,586]

Of course not! I never suspected a thing.

By the way, totally unrelated, but I suddenly have a strange feeling that I should set my alarm a little early tomorrow. Hmm.

I believe that is a screen capture from the BBC documentary. Ar least I hope it is.

Just remember, Marco Polo walked to China.

Any place is within walking distance if you have the time.

[fommes 165]

Yes, that's right.

... for Jesus!

[filmmusic 3,269]

Well, i don't like much where this thread is heading so i'll get back to the subject.

according to bill wrobel's writings, the scores of Hook, Close Encounters are in the Sony Studios, and the scores of A.I., and the 2 first Harry potters are in Warner Bros.

And what that might be? or you're just being ironic?

Which BBC documentary?

[Datameister 2,586]

I don't remember which part it shows his house in, but it's there.

[Naïve Old Fart 13,021]

Call me stupid, but why would you want these leather-bound scores?

[Koray Savas 2,260]

They contain every last note for every one of his scores. The ultimate holy grail!

[Naïve Old Fart 13,021]

I understand that, Koray, and ordinarilly, I would love to get my paws on some of them, too, but HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO it's called "stealing".

[gkgyver 1,647]

No, it's called "dedication".

[Naïve Old Fart 13,021]

Are you, Quint, mentruating at this time? Hey, back off, man, I'm a scientist!

No, it's called "dedication".

No, it's called "life plus twenty", gkgyver; get to work.

The Library of Congress has some Williams scores but you can't take them out of the building and they won't let you make copies, even for personal use.

Please find your sense of humor. You seem to have misplaced it. No one here was seriously suggesting robbing Williams of his property.
