if you play well enough, john williams WILL find you

[@tunescribers]

Thanks for all the great feedback! We actually got a message from Michael, the flugel player in the video, and you're all absolutely right - we mixed up the trumpet and flugel in the B theme 🤦‍♂ what great playing from both of them though.
Make sure to check out their original video here: ruclips.net/video/Ax_KcYR3KTI/видео.html

You can tell he genuinely enjoys music when he isn’t annoyed at people playing his musical scores outside his home. I’m sure most people would’ve been a bit annoyed

[@ibax013]

How'd you know?

[@marktegrotenhuis]

Oh yeah, I remember seeing the video of these two guys playing this. Still amazing to see the man himself actually walk up to them and compliment them. Plus it's nice to see the transcription now.

[@Scrapplefromtheapple]

The tall “ young guy” is in his 60s. But still young at heart.

[@marktegrotenhuis]

@@Scrapplefromtheapple I never said they were both young guys. Just that they're two guys. 😉

[@1SLMusic]

I would love to meet John Williams. What a legend.

[@jtluns9]

Plot twist, that wasn’t even John Williams home. He did actually just find them

[@johnnytheyoungmaestro]

Honestly, I was NOT expecting them to play it outside his home! But how sweet that he actually came outside and greeted them!! Fantastic job, and what an incredible man John Williams is! :)

[@tunescribers]

Such a cool moment, really shows you what a great guy Mr. Williams is! He could easily have stayed in and pretended not to be home - or even got mad with them! But no, he went out to say hi and exchange kind words 🎺

[@joeplavin]

Wonderful transcription, although I'm pretty sure the flugel has the melody at 0:25

[@gunnarkilborn3915]

Yes, I noticed that too, bars 23-33 should be switched.

[@poplee6478]

I was thinking the same thing, glad I’m not insane lol.

[@tunescribers]

🤦‍♂️whoops!

[@lostinlowes2081]

Wow I retained more than I thought 😂

[@parametr]

So wholesome. RUclips at it's finest :)
Much love, Mr Williams.

[@mikesosa1146]

So glad you are on RUclips. Thanks!

[@pepperT358]

It's sweet how the first thing the older one did (when meeting his hero) was big up the younger one! Good luck to them both!

[@Jerimiahh]

you guys are amazing! playing at the age of 13 and playing this is talent! keep it going, new sub.

[@8miceinabox]

This wasn’t the person playing, just a transcription of it.

[@MrReeferRod]

What an absolute legend 🥰

[@gorillafighter4037]

I would love to play for Mr Williams

[@lucastornado9496]

I love him

[@Sharkacy]

dude this is actually crazy

[@Deluca-Piano]

Nice! 👍 Long time customer. Great first video.

[@alexnobrasil3062]

What a lovely man

[@tylerm_13]

imagine casually meeting JW, i would be deceased 😁

[@RuthroAlt]

when he said "I thought he'd never make it" what was he referring to?

[@jeremysolomon2686]

The high Cs in the trumpet

[@tunescribers]

It would have been pretty mortifying to fluff that last high C! Luckily they are both great players and absolutely smashed it.

[@HelloooThere]

Something like that….thats the idea

[@warriors_mc39]

I love this! I also wanna know how they found his house 😂

[@tunescribers]

🤐

[@EnriqueEskeda]

Great playing and great transcription! But I think they got mixed up in the B theme.

[@tunescribers]

Yeah, you're not the first to spot the mixup in the B section 😳 the flugel player in the video even got in touch to let us know about the mistake! (though he said it was otherwise accurate!) whoops...

[@abrdds]

Wow

[@bmajorscale]

is this this years tmea etude? if it is, it still needs to be going 2x tempo

[@q12aw50]

Why did you get the parts completely wrong when the flugel had melody

[@MrHunk85]

just of me to play along i may have to dumb down the notes lol

[@aimanfarouk5017]

He’s 13??.!,!

[@bvssmouq6gamingofficialyt]

yea, my guess is he's been playing for since at least 9-10

[@bvssmouq6gamingofficialyt]

Props to him if he was any sooner

[@nozodah]

was the recorded recently?

[@tunescribers]

No, it's quite an old video - you can see the original here: ruclips.net/video/Ax_KcYR3KTI/видео.html

[@lagomoof]

Now look up the theme to a film called _King's Row_ that came out in 1942, from which he took inspiration.

[@tunescribers]

Williams definitely took some inspo from there - not to mention Holst, Stranvinsky et al! But still, such an iconic score.

[@curiousbat5368]

Once is beautiful. But I bet many times would be so freaking annoying.

[@tunescribers]

So true!

[@alazeta0al9]

What a pity that trumpet and flugel were confused in the B theme

[@tunescribers]

🤦‍♂️Yep, we definitely messed up there. The original flugel player actually got in touch and confirmed our mistake... Whoops!

[@sarahedwards2]

You forgot the tonic triplets and half note at the end.

[@wotringe]

"well enough"...sorry to disapoint but...that was not good.
