SUMMARY:Speaker Series: John Williams: A Chameleon in Plain Sight
DESCRIPTION:📅 Thursday\, March 26\, 2026 | 5:30 PM\n📍 Hagerstown Community College\nCenter for Business and Entrepreneurial Studies\, Room 103 \nFrom the ominous two-note motif of Jaws to the sweeping wonder of Star Wars and the adventurous spirit of Raiders of the Lost Ark\, John Williams has shaped the sound of modern cinema in ways few composers ever have. Yet his creative world extends far beyond the familiar themes we all recognize. \nJoin us for an engaging lecture with Dr. Stefan Swanson\, Professor of Music Theory\, Composition\, and Technology at Shepherd University\, as he explores the remarkable range of Williams’ career. Together\, we will uncover lesser-known works\, surprising connections\, and the artistic versatility that makes him one of the most influential composers of our time. \nThis lecture will also provide insight into the music featured on the Maryland Symphony Orchestra’s upcoming April 11 concert: John Williams: Music from the Movies\, offering a deeper listening experience for those planning to attend. \nThis event is free\, but registration is requested.\nReserve your spot here: https://www.cognitoforms.com/MarylandSymphonyOrchestra1/LectureSeriesRegistrationMarch2026
