At just 90 years old, the composer could be pondering several things: “(Turning 90) has given me the ability to breathe, the ability to live and understand that there are more things in life. Without being religious, which is not I am especially, there is a spiritual life, an artistic life, a realm that is above the mundane things of everyday realities. Music can raise thought to the level of poetry. We can reflect on how necessary music has been for humanity. I always like to speculate that music is older than language. So it’s an essential part of our humanity,” explains Williams.
Among those decisions that he is meditating could be to leave the world of cinema, although not that of music. According to Williams, a film of starwars it requires at least six months of work, which, as he points out, “at this point in life is a very long commitment for me”. However, Williams is turning to composing concert music, including a piano concerto that she is writing for Emmanuel Ax.
In the event of this sad retirement, Williams would leave behind him an enviable filmography full of titles to remember, more than 100 films, including “Star Wars”, “Jurassic Park”, “Jaws” (“Jaws”), “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”, “ET”, “Indiana Jones”, “Superman”, “Schindler’s List” and “Harry Potter”. An immense legacy as far as soundtracks are concerned and that has brought him up to five Oscar Awards.
