John Williams (cumadóir)
Is cumadóir ceoil de chuid SAM é John Towner Williams (rugadh 8 Feabhra 1932 i gCathair Nua-Eabhrac) a bhfuil cáil ar leith tuillte aige mar gheall ar chumadh ceoil do scannáin go háirithe.
Saol
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]Bhí a athair, Johnny Williams, ina cheoltóir cumasach a sheinn an trombón agus na drumaí agus a ghlac páirt i mbanna den t-ainm an Raymond Scott Quintet.
Bhí triúr clainne, Joseph, Mark agus Jennifer aige lena chéad bhean chéile Barbara Ruick a fuair bás sa bhliain 1974. Faoi láthair tá sé pósta leis an ngrianghrafadóir Samantha Winslow.
Rinne John Williams dianstaidéar ar an gceol ó aois óg agus é ag seinm an phianó, an trombóin, an clairinéid agus an troimpéid. Ba léir gan mhoill gur ceoltóir tréitheach a bhí ann. Thosaigh sé ag cumadh ceoil go luath agus lean sé air i rith an Dara Cogadh Domhanda agus é ina bhall de bhanna an aerfhórsa.
Choinnigh sé ar sa Juilliard School of Music le Rosina Lhevinne. Níos déanaí i Hollywood bhí sé faoi oiliúint ag Arthur Olaf Anderson agus Mario Castlenuovo-Tedesco.
Bhí tionchar mór ag Bernard Herrmann agus Henry Mancini air. Bhain sé Oscar le haghaidh ceol scannáin ceithre huaire agus bhí sé ina stiúrthóir ar an bhfoireann cheoil The Boston Pops.
Bhí rath ollmhór ar an gceol a scríobh sé do scannáin, go háirithe de chuid Steven Spielberg.
