In a career spanning six decades, he has composed some of the most recognizable film scores in the history of motion pictures. Williams (often credited as “Johnny Williams”) also composed the theme music for various TV programs in the 1960s. Williams was known as “Little Johnny Love” Williams during the early 1960s, and he served as music arranger and bandleader for a series of popular music albums with the singer Frankie Laine. His most typical style may be considered Neo-romanticism, with a notorious use of leitmotifs and orchestral grandeur (most iconically in the Star Wars saga), but he has made also incursions in Impressionist, Expressionist or Experimental music, and also in progressive Jazz (his father was a jazz drummer and he began his career as a jazz pianist, often working with Henry Mancini).
