Alice Sara Ott (born 1988) is a German-Japanese classical pianist.
Ott was born in Munich, Germany, in 1988; her Japanese mother had studied piano in Tokyo, and her father was a German civil engineer. At the age of three, after being taken to a concert, she decided she wanted to become a pianist; as she says, she realised that "music was the language that goes much beyond any words" and that she wanted to communicate and express herself through music. She started piano lessons when she was four, and reached the final stage of the youth competition in Munich at the age of five, playing to a full house in the Hercules Hall.
From the age of twelve, she studied at the Salzburg Mozarteum with Karl-Heinz Kämmerling while continuing her school education in Munich. Ott has won awards at a number of piano competitions, including first prize at the 2004 Pianello Val Tidone Competition. She has made recordings of Franz Liszt's Transcendental Etudes and Frédéric Chopin's waltzes for Deutsche Grammophon, and is currently performing concert tours in Europe, Japan, and the United States.

Night inside the city
Empty sidewalks
Stretching under dizzy lights
Rain is humming
The streets are running
Underneath the neon lights
We run together
We'll run forever
Out of here
Riding the wheels
Look at pretty windows
At shiny people
Statues under sparkling lights
Just take a picture
A melting moment
Flashing on this crazy ride
Just close your eyes now
And breathe a sigh now
We're getting out of here
Out of here
Riding the wheels
Riding the wheels
