Dirk Brossé conducts the London Symphony Orchestra (LSO), the boys that recorded the Star Wars soundtracks, for a John Williams celebration in the Albert Hall.

John Williams was in London to conduct the concert himself, but he fell ill.

Today's first classical music selection for Rosalina: #RaidersOfTheLostArk the #Soundtrack by #JohnWilliams as performed by the #LondonSymphonyOrchestra. I decided to gather all of my Soundtracks into one area of my collection and of course Rosalina decided she wanted to "help", so she really made Pa work to get this one out and on the turntable, lol.

Why? Because I can.

Not much to say here. You've all heard the music from this at least once in your life.

Some editions of the vinyl release came with this poster of the climatic Battle of Yavin.

Recording session for Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999) – composed and conducted by John Williams; performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and the London Voices

In this extra from the DVD release for The Phantom Menace, we take a small glimpse into the recording session for the first Star Wars prequel’s score. George Lucas make a brief appearance just before the recording, as he assures Williams that “Duel of the Fates” will have echoes in what eventually became Revenge of the Sith (2005). In traditional film scoring, the orchestra/chorus/ensemble will most likely not see any of the music until the day of recording (so that movie studios can cut the costs on an expensive recording process). So there is a good chance all of the above is sight-reading.

“Duel of the Fates” contains one of the few examples of sung text in a Star Wars score as the orchestra passes complex harmonies back-and-forth amongst each other. Its lyrics are taken from Robert Graves’ translation of a medieval Welsh epic poem, Cad Goddeu (The Battle of the Trees). Sections of that translation are sung, maestoso, here by the London Voices in Sanskrit:

[Under the tongue root a fight most dread While another rages behind in the head]

Korah Matah Korah Rahtahmah Korah Rahtamah Yoodhah Korah Korah Syahdho Rahtahmah Daanyah Korah Keelah Daanyah

In the sunlight of the Coruscant sunsets - Thrawn and Eli Vanto's Story.

After the first meeting with the Emperor.

After the promotion of Thrawn and Eli.

After Thrawn's appointment as Grand Admiral.

+ bonus

The result was a kind of mini-comic from frames.

And if you listen to “ London Symphony Orchestra, John Williams - Across the Stars”, the sunset on Coruscant will be even brighter, hehehe ////v////

“While recently recording the music for Star Wars: Episode 1 The Phantom Menace with the London Symphony Orchestra, I was delighted to see that there were a dozen or so members of the orchestra who had played on the original 1977 soundtrack. During our first intermission, several of the younger players approached me and explained that, as children, they had seen and heard Star Wars, and immediately resolved to study music with the goal of playing with the London Symphony.

As you can imagine, hearing this thrilled me since I had noticed how many six-year-olds in my own country, who, not even having been born at the time of the original Star Wars movies, nevertheless know the story, characters and music of all three earlier films. 

George Lucas seems to have created a truly trans-generational phenomenon. He has in fact created a mythological world full of tall tales, magical creatures and exotic places that has taken a permanent place in the popular culture of the entire world, and it is my continuing great privilege to accompany him on his uniquely creative journey.”

                                    - John Williams from the liner notes of The Phantom Menace soundtrack, 1999.

Hello, Steph! :) I hope you are doing well! I know you sometimes have a tough time but I hope things are looking up! Spring is coming, so at least I hope the weather is better and there's some more daylight. :)

I wondered if you have any stories where Sherlock is a (professional) violinist. Maybe this has been asked before, I think I remember something of this kind but I can't find it again. I hope you don't mind. :)

Thank you so much! Your recs are brilliant, I have found so many gems by looking through your lists! :) It must be so much work, I and we all really appreciate it!

Have some virtual tulips, and best wishes from Holland! 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

Hey Nonny!

AHHHH!!! Thank you for the tulips and checking up on me! You made my day!! Doing a bit better, just looking forward to summer so I can spend more time outside, heh. I really need to take a break from here for a bit soon, I think.

Ah, I think I have been asked in the past but let's go through my lists anyway! First off, you can check out my two Violin lists:

Sherlock’s Violin

Sherlock’s Violin Pt 2

And here are fics on my MFL list tagged with Sherlock being a violinist:

While the Music Lasts by gunandviolin (E, 44,645+ w., 6/? Ch. || WiP || Orchestra AU || Slow Burn, Jealous John, Angst with Happy Ending, Classical Music, Sexual Tension) – John Watson, a weary veteran of the professional orchestra circuit, settles into his new position as principal clarinetist for the London Symphony, hoping that he's left his worries behind in the States. However, his sudden acquaintance with the brilliant solo violinist Sherlock Holmes and the suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of his predecessor prove that John's troubles are far from over.

Sehnenfäden by holmesian_love and Strange_johnlock (M, 67,879 w., 22 Ch. || Violinist Sherlock AU || Idiots in Love, Alternate First Meeting, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff and Humour, Friendship, Friends to Lovers, Slow Burn, First Time, Nature, Music, Seclusion, Angst with Happy Ending, Non-Explicit Sex) – William Sherlock Holmes is a world-renowned violinist, uncompromising with his principles and his punishing schedule, pushed to breaking point by his manager.John Watson is a lost, retired army-doctor, returned to London with nowhere to live. Both men end up in situations which lead them to a secluded German village in the mountains, escaping from the unforgiving world around them. A chance encounter brings them together, sharing a friendship and understanding neither of them have found before. Will they be able to find a way to express their true feelings for one another, to find the path to be together, despite Sherlock’s chaotic lifestyle?

-----

There was also a fic called "Queen's Philharmonic" by holmsianscholar that was removed, so if anyone has that as a PDF or ebook, please let us know. Webarchive didn't save it because I believe it was a locked fic, so sadly my link I have is useless :(

If anyone has any other "professional violinist Sherlock" fics to add, because I need more of this AU, PLEASE do!! <3
