I’d say you’ve learned the material quite well, then! Williams is great for analyzing 8-bar-type themes. Just run through a lot of them for practice, even if it’s by ear.

Thank you for your response!
I just ordered the book. I went through the theme course awhile ago. I forgot that you analyzed it which is good. I’m trying to practice identifying the forms independently.

Absolutely! I actually analyze this theme in a chapter I wrote for the book, John Williams: Music for Films, Television, and the Concert Stage. I also discuss it in my Theme Writing 1 course. And in both places, that’s the label I give it. So it seems we agree!
