Chords for Itzhak Perlman Fiddler on the Roof John Williams Los Angeles Philharmonic, Gustavo Dudamel, 30 09 14

Well, you know that John Williams won his first Oscar for his adaptation of Jerry Bach's music of Fiddler on the Roof.
And what's fascinating me again is that he [C] had to deal with stuff that was already [A] written.
So I [D] think that what I'm playing, which is a [F] cadenza, with [Dm] some of the themes, is [E] all John.
You know, where he actually [D] used the music that was already there and made it something of his own, something a little more personal.
The thing that we hear has to do with the opening of the film, where there were contractual requirements to put the director's name, the photographer's name, the actor's name, all of this, five, six, seven minutes of screen time, which of course doesn't exist in the [F#] Broadway show.
Norman Jewison said, well, we have the idea.
We will have a fiddler on the roof like the Chagall painting.
And we will see him.
[C] It won't be Chagall, but we will see the fiddler.
And we will fiddle away for six minutes.
Okay, so I have to, so I've made a cadenza and a series of [Am] little variations, which you do, and some [E] elaborations and so on.
Another little [F#] mini cadenza at the end of this thing to accompany this stretch of film.
I remember having a discussion with Norman Jewison, [C] the director, who can we get to play the [F#] violin?
And I said, well, you know, Isaac Stern, I think he said, do you think he would play it?
And I said, if you call him, I think he would agree to do it.
Again, it's totally successful.
It has the flavor of, shall I say, the Jewishness of the play, of the music.
So it's, again, it's one of those things where you really are amazed at an ability of a composer, not just [E] to write the notes, but to give the flavor to the notes, depending on what there is on the screen. _ _ _ _ _
