Playing John Williams
David Helbock
We all have the music in our lives from which there is no escape. It reaches deep inside, becomes planted ineradicably in the memory. Other, extra-musical occurrences can often get mixed in with the experience of listening, which has a way of imprinting the music on the mind even more firmly. This was what happened to David Helbock when he discovered cinema for himself and had his first encounters with the music of the American film composer John Williams: "He's been with me just about all of my life. I can still remember clearly how as a child I saw "E. T." countless times and was excited about the extra-terrestrial being and his human friends. I won't forget how my feelings would flicker between fascination and fear when I first saw the shark in "Jaws". These were all deeply emotional and formative experiences for me, and it was always the soundtrack to the films that was at the root of them."
But why is John Williams' music quite so effective, how is it that his music comes straight to mind when one thinks of any of the films in which he has been involved as composer? "Deep down, Williams is a great writer of melodies. They touch the heart profoundly, they release emotions. Take "Hedwig's Theme" from "Harry Potter", it's a simple but incredibly deeply felt melody. Or the emotive theme from "Schindler's List". Rather than relying on sound effects or sonic ostentation, Williams puts his trust in the power of melody."
