E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (End Credits) - Adventures on Earth - Piano Duet. John Williams (1982)

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (End Credits)
(Arranged and performed by Michael Kenton)

Adventures on Earth - also widely known as Adventure on Earth - is a piece of music from the 1982 movie: E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial. The original version featured a full orchestra and was composed and conducted by legendary film composer John Williams. It won the Academy Award for Best Original Score and Grammy Award for best Soundtrack for Visual Media.

To rearrange such an epic orchestral score for piano was a little challenging, so the version featured in this video starts off as a solo piano version, but soon turns into a piano duet arrangement for four hands!

I cry at the end of this movie every time

Wow!!!! Stellar playing. John Williams is the GOAT

[nuberojadom]

Possible, in the history of EEUU classic music this is the most underrated piece of the piano repertoire

[johnjoedaly]

Incredibly good arrangement for piano👍 well done

[BrianClark]

Absolutely overwhelmingly incredible. I can’t even imagine how difficult it must have been to arrange a piano piece that was mostly composed for a major symphony orchestra!! Unreal. Thank you for posting this and sharing your amazing talents! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Oh my goodness. When I first heard this piece (especially the first part of the gorgeous arpeggio like piano bit!) I was IN LOVE. And you have done so amazingly in playing and putting this together. Absolutely fantastic!! Lots of love from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎉

Unbelievable how well you play this piece. You are a true master pianist!

[WorldCoinCollector]

Beautiful! Never seen a song put perfectly on piano. It’s a orchestral song but you put them all into one! Thank you! I admire the craftsmanship.

[TheFlamingPiano]

Very nice piece, really does look fun flying through many registers at the start. Amazing clean job at the fast chords too!

[Arglactable]

Absolutely fantastic arrangement and performance.

[AlexsiaPiano]

I love it 😍 It's just perfect and I could listen to it all day. It puts a smile on my face and actually goosebumps on everything else 🙈 Thank you so much for this beautiful arrangement!!!

If you search "ET ending piano" most of what comes up is people playing just a small segment of it - and some quite poorly. This is perfect.

those veins in the hands are going wild

[edocega]

Wow. Thanks a million. I really love this piece.

[garrettbays]

I would love to hear the whole Adventures on Earth track, as heard on the soundtrack album, played on piano.

I was fine with this song until I had to grow an extra pair of hands.
