The Piano Guys released their latest video, “Jurassic World Sonata,” Thursday as a tribute to the fourth installment in the Jurassic Park series, “Jurassic World,” which hits theaters this weekend.

The music video features a softer, slower arrangement of John Williams’ classic “Theme from Jurassic Park,” with Jon Schmidt on at piano and Steven Sharp Nelson on the cello. It was filmed on the banks of a riverbed in Crawdad Canyon near St. George, Utah.

“We thought we’d pay tribute to this ’hat trick’ of artistry by arranging a ’chill,’ almost reverent version of John Williams’ deeply emotive theme from Jurassic Park,” The Piano Guys wrote in the description section of the YouTube video.



“Jurassic World” officially premieres Friday, June 12, with select showings in theaters around the country on Thursday, June 11.
