Simone Pedroni is a brilliant classical pianist and former Van Cliburn Award-Gold Medal winner, while John Williams is the most celebrated film composer of our time. Williams and Pedroni each transcribed about half of material on this album, which premieres Williams' own piano suites from “Lincoln”, and “The Book Thief”, plus Pedroni’s own special transcriptions of music from “Harry Potter”, “Star Wars”, “Schindler’s List” and more. The album is a stunning and unique presentation of John Williams’ film music, without the usual symphony orchestra, and includes 80 minutes of music.
