Phenomenon

I own 11 soundtrack recordings by John Williams. I am always astounded as to how he is able to effortlessly aternate between tonal and atonal textures (classic example being Close Encounters of the Third Kind), while still creating a musical representation of the film images. I'm hoping he still has enough for another masterpiece!
