Cobb New Horizons Band Plays Tribute to John Williams!
A composer is the person who writes the music. You all know John Williams, but you may not realize it. Born in New York, he first played piano, then trumpet, trombone and clarinet. He studied composition at the University of California, then was drafted into the US Air Force, where he composed band music. He has written some of the best loved movie themes, such as Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Jurassic Park, E.T., and Harry Potter Movies. John Williams became the conductor of the Boston Pops, probably the most popular and familiar of the orchestras across the country. He has written for the Olympics, and even a song for the Inauguration of President Obama.
