This is our listening for tonight (rigorously on CD). SLEEPERS is a 1996 drama directed by Barry Levinson featuring an all-star cast (Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Brad Pitt, Jason Patric, Minnie Driver). The Academy Award-nominated score is one of Maestro Williams’ true underrated gems, featuring impressive solos for French Horn (by James Thatcher) and flute, (by Janet Ferguson) and electric bass (by Neil Stubenhaus), accompanying the drama with a profound sense of loss, but never with despair.

On March 24, John Williams returned to Chicago to conduct the magnificent @chicagosymphony in a sold-out concert of his beloved film music.
