GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY They say you should never meet your heroes. If thats true, then you really should never play your heros famous movie score outside of his house in the hopes that he'll come out to greet you.
Were glad two young fellows ignored that train of thought.
In a video posted to YouTube, 13-year-old trumpeter Bryce Hayashi and flugelhorn player Michael Miller decided to play one of the most iconic pieces of cinema: the Star Wars Theme by John Williams. Oh, and the venue they chose for this mini-concert was outside of the composers home.
For the uninitiated, Williams has written more than one or two of films more recognizable melodies. Between Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Schindlers List, Harry Potter, E.T. and even the Olympic Fanfare and Theme, Williams is prolific, at the very least, and a movie scoring genius at most.
So for Hayashi and Miller to literally trumpet Williams work at his house on a fine July day is nothing short of brave.
Luckily for the two musicians, Williams even came out of his house to greet them (at around the 1:24 mark). He seemed perfectly gracious to boot.
Would you have the courage to greet your hero?
