Ialso downloaded from the internet something that claims to be "the complete recording sessions" of schindler's list, and seems quite legit ( -williams-schindlers-list-recording.html ), again it said everything was arranged by Williams, except por una cabeza, which apparently was arranged by Angela Morley (sounds weird, but still..).

All the source music in Schindler's List was hand-picked by Williams himself together with Spielberg. Several tracks were cleared for use in the picture, but others had to be re-recorded to fit better the editorial needs. These pieces were re-orchestrated for a small 1930s cabaret-like orchestra by John Neufeld and Angela Morley, but I'm sure Williams supervised the arrangement as he usually does. Williams then recorded all the pieces with a L.A. orchestra before or just after the film shooting (can't remember the details, there was a Boston Globe interview back then with several details).


It would be nice to have an expanded Schindler's List CD with these pieces as well. A nice little trivia/connection is that one of the source pieces ("Jealousy") was very popular in the U.S. thanks to a recording by Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops and it became a huge best-seller in those days (late 30s/early 40s).


Yes, I'm pretty sure these pieces were orchestrated by John Neufeld and Angela Morley, but arranged by John Williams. Especially this version of Por Una Cabeza sounds like JW arranged it, especially because it sounds so very much like the version found on Cinema Serenade (and there it says it was arranged by JW alone)...


"John Williams still seemed to like my arrangements. I wrote three for a CD that he recorded with the LSO in London called The Hollywood Sound, and three more that he recorded conducting the Pittsburgh Symphony with Itzhak Perlman playing the violin solos on a CD called Cinema Serenade."

theme, but there are no fingerings or positions in the sheet music which is otherwise very accurate. Can anyone who plays this, offer advice on how to play the piece. What positions? What fingerings?


I've fooled with this, for tone/vibrato practice. I wouldn't try to imitate Perlman, if I were you, unless you have hands the size of his (and he plays with a huge amount of portamento regardless of what he's playing).


Insert expressive shifts and use the upper positions where *you* think they're appropriate; the idea is to color the tone appropriately. (And I'm not sure if Perlman does this, but if I could reach for those fifths at the beginning of the melody, rather than crossing strings for them, I probably would.)


I'm assuming that you're using "Three Pieces from Schindler's List", which is the "real" music, not a transcription. (It's violin/piano, though there's also violin/orchestra available, but I believe the differences are not significant.)


About two weeks ago, I posted a fingering for the first two statements of the theme to the BAVS list, that's fairly moderate in difficulty. (First and third positions, a little second. There's a fifth-position section, which you can just play down in third if you can't shift that high yet.) Might want to check the list archives.


As much as I respect Perlman's playing, I would NOT imitate him. Copying a master can be a dangerous thing. I used to selectively imitate a lot of violinists I respected (and still respect), like Kreisler, Heifetz, Thibaud and Menuhin as a teenager. I still incorporate their expressive devices, such as slides and rubatos fairly liberally, but I use my own ear and heart to decide where and how I am going use them. It is perfectly fine to be selective about where you put slides or stretch/rush notes in any piece you happpen to play.


Preserve your individuality! If you happen to slide the same place Perlman does because YOU feel right, then it is fine. But if you slide without support from your inner soul, then forget it. No two person will likely to feel exactly the same way about a piece because each one of us grow up differently. If you come up with a different nuance from Perlman, that should be a cause of celebration, not an embarrassment.


Years ago I had a child prodigy friend who when the movie first came out was scheduled to play the piece at a concert hall in Florida. However the music was not out yet. So the hall wrote John Williams and got a copy of the original score... I have a xerox of it as well... very cool... only a few fingerings though. I'll look for it.

Jojo - thank you for your response, but the score attached below is not on the search list you provided. I found the score by looking through a member's sheet music but I can't remember who the member was so I can't re-find the score.


Tell me if I'm wrong, but it seems that the results that come from "search" do not reach into member's lists of sheet music that can be found when browsing through a member's area. For example, I have found several scores by looking through different member's sheet music (and their favorites lists) that I cannot find using the normal "search".
