DAJK Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 So, come on, we all know than John Williams is a master. Not just with his work on Star Wars but as a whole, the dude is amazing at crafting beautiful soundtracks. Considering TFA is a few months away (and that I'm anticipating the soundtrack almost as much as the film itself), what are some of your guys' favourite pieces from the Star Wars Saga? I have a top 6 that I'm going to start off with. Honorable Mention: Birth of the Twins/Padme's Destiny - Episode 3 6. Duel of the Fates - Episode 1 5. Imperial March or Immolation Scene 4. Main Theme 3. Battle of the Heroes - Episode 3 2. Binary Sunset/Force Theme 1.Across the Stars - Episode 2 (I love this piece to death... but really, I love all of them) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark 33Legend of the Sith Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Whatever the cue is during Vader vs. Luke in Return of the Jedi when Luke starts giving to his anger: That is some of the most beautiful and haunting music that I have heard. It is always overlooked because it is such a short segment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 Whatever the cue is during Vader vs. Luke in Return of the Jedi when Luke starts giving to his anger: That is some of the most beautiful and haunting music that I have heard. It is always overlooked because it is such a short segment. To be honest, you're completely right. It is short, and I admit to overlooking it, but I remember when I was younger that was the first ever scene that I would watch a scene over and over because of how beautiful the music was. Before I even understood the concept of "soundtracks". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
