Cool Video: Michael Giacchino’s New Take On ‘Star Wars’ Imperial March

Frequent J.J. Abrams collaborator Michael Giacchino must be absolutely gutted that he’s not working on the score for the planned STAR WARS EPISODE VII, VIII and IX (John Williams is confirmed to return to the composer’s desk for the new sequels), but at least he’s got a sense of humour about it, as this video shows.

Accompanied by Parks & Recreation‘s Ben Schwartz on ‘vocals,’ Giacchino invents a new version of the classic Imperial March from the original movie at his piano at home, and the results are nothing short of marvellous.

Take a look at this:

STAR WARS EPISODE VII will be released in 2015, and will be directed by J.J. Abrams.
