Steven Spielberg puts in 2 appearances – with excerpts from John Williams’ score to his film “Close Encounters Of the Third Kind” and with a story about a famous Bach melody which his father used to whistle. This appears in his semi-autobiographical film “The Fabelmans”. There’s also music from “Monsters Inc”, “A Chorus Line”, and the first single release from cellist Hauser’s forthcoming album “Cinema”. And “Paddington” brings us a marmalade harvest.
