The Jurassic Park Theme, Played on the Melodica

by Jamie Frevele | 1:16 pm, February 1st, 2012


The melodica, also known as a “blow organ” and “key flute,” is a harmonica-style instrument that features a tube through which to blow air and a keyboard to create distinct notes. It looks like this. Now, witness a glorious, sometimes aggressive version of the Jurassic Park theme song written by award-winning composer John Williams, played on the melodica. And then try not to laugh.

“They do move in herds …”

    I want to play this (or, er, a more polished version if possible) on my melodica.

    Also, thanks to this the Jurassic Park theme will probably end up getting stuck in my head for the millionth time.

    “A more polished version,” right, so this was a bit…rough? I’ve never heard a melodica being played before but it sounded…well, better than I could do…

    It sounds good, until you get to the end.. That’s all I was talking about.

    Oh, I’m not saying it wasn’t recognizably the score from the movie! It definitely was.
