From Muppet Wiki
John Williams (b. 1932) is a composer of film music. As conductor of the Boston Pops, in 1981 he gave an introduction to the rebroadcast of a 1971 episode of Evening at Pops featuring the cast of Sesame Street.
His music for Star Wars (a franchise for which five films starred Frank Oz) can be heard in the Mark Hamill episode of The Muppet Show.
His theme from Jaws has been spoofed in a segment on Sesame Street involving a large letter of the alphabet creeping up on children playing in a pool. His Jaws theme was also spoofed in a segment from Rocky Mountain Holiday. When the special was released to DVD, the music was replaced with something more generic.
He scored E.T. - The Extra Terrestrial, which features Sesame Street being shown on television in one scene.
His music from the Indiana Jones movies can be heard in The Muppets at Walt Disney World. It was also spoofed in the Muppet Babies episode "Raiders of the Lost Muppet."
Williams was also the composer for the first three films in the Harry Potter series, including Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, which featured Creature Shop involvement.
