The Jazz roots of the world-famous soundtrack composer

When you see John Williams standing before his mighty BostonPops Orchestra... when you watch him collect another Academy Award or Emmy...when you notice his name as the credits roll by on the major films, have youever wondered whether he thinks about his roots? Now, looking back to themusical beginnings of John Williams, this 2-CD set may be the perfect answer tothis question. John's impressive feeling for jazz accounts for his popularityin the West Coast musical circles as an arranger, conductor and pianist.
