Young Pianist Makes Epic John Williams Tribute With Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter Music & More


If you love the music of John Williams, then you’ll also enjoy this new video of a young pianist paying tribute to the genius with a piano assortment of some of Williams’ most recognizable film scores.

Uploaded by YouTuber The Piano Gal, the talented kid is shown sitting at a piano and playing to the tunes of John Williams’ popular compositions including Star Wars (of course), Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, and E.T. For added effect, the young pianist wears different costumes appropriate to each film.

The team behind Piano Gal’s tribute, Ideas for Hollywood, have also flawlessly incorporated visual representations of the aforementioned films.

Take a look at the awesome piano performance below:

 

The video editing, Easter eggs, and the performance itself are all very impressive. It’s no wonder the internet has nothing but nice things to say about the tribute. One commenter even said the entire thing brought “tears to her eyes”: “God Bless you and your amazing talent!!!! Wow... this brought (good) tears to my eyes!”

Young Sara's video has already raked in over 17,000 views. She will be entering CVX Live's "Next Big YouTuber" contest this month. 

John Williams, who’s a composer and conductor, is also a pianist himself. I hope this reaches him and he’ll see how his music is making further influence on younger generations.

Aside from the film scores included in the tribute video above, Williams also composed music for films such as Superman, Jaws, Schindler’s List, and The Adventures of Tintin.  He’s currently the laureate conductor for the Boston Pops'. The 50-time Academy Award-nominee has won 5 Oscars, 4 Golden Globe Awards, 7 British Academy Film Awards, as well as 22 Grammy Awards.
