Are you serious? That’s awesome. How do you go about getting the part if you don’t mind me asking? Are you part of the LSO?

WWWWWHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!! THAT IS AWESOME MY DUDE!!

@@thegoodgeneral Don Williams is an LA-based musician. Attack of the Clones was recorded in London with the London Symphony Orchestra.

@@thegoodgeneral What are you on about? Don Williams doesn't play for the LSO if you even look at the credits of the CD release you will see it's the LSO, Don Williams plays for the Hollywood Studio Symphony a contract orchestra for the AFM not the UK. Stop spreading disinformation. John only employs his brother when he records in LA. I don't know where you people come from.

Wow 😮. Cherish that memory forever my friend

But even the great John Williams has proven not to be quite as effective without Lucas.

@@brucewayne1662 They need each other. Williams is still the GOAT movie music composer.

@@brucewayne1662 LOL, what? JW did Jaws, ET, Schindler's List, Superman, Home Alone, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, and dozens of others without Lucas.

@@BaileyFamFC And while those are good scores, I dont think any of them quite reach the level of Star Wars and Indiana Jones

He's always said Star Wars is a silent film and the music tells the story. The visuals and music work in tandem. He's a pure filmmaker versus a literary filmmaker.

Lord Whitenorth It's a lovely love theme

You mean is a great orchestral piece, songs have lyrics ;-)

Anakin Skyobiliviator I kind of agree with you . However the sound mixing phase is the most critical

sanch Sanchayan That is what I mean, have the visuals tell a story and allow the music to bring it to life.

but the music can be as effective as the imagery no matter how good any musical score is..

sanch Sanchayan What do you mean?

For example if the battle was nicely shot the music would have swelled rather than being subdued

Well played sir. Just ran across this and that comment made my night

'Han Solo and the Princess' wasnt meant to be a prominent love theme because it was generic love between han and liea and not related to the galaxy's on going war. but emphasis was given to 'across the stars' because of how the love between anakin and padme was one of the reason the republic fell aka vader's rise and palpatine's manipulation

The love between Anakin and Padme drives the plot, whereas with Han Solo and Leia it's something you can ignore.

Your points are well thought. Which Is why i wish we heard ATC in the Sequel trilogy.

+sayenshin theres a lot of hidden gems in the soundtrack. First time seeing the movie, i completely agree with you. First time listening to the soundtrack, I completely agree with you. But Iv seen the movie three times now, and a lot of the soundtrack has grown on me. Everyone talks about rey's theme, but theres so much more on the soundtrack than just that. the falcon chase music is genius, march of the resistance is great. The star killer is a good orchestral song, and ;the raid on the jakku villiage; is one of my favorites. Listen to the soundtrack a few times through, and i guarantee you it will grow on you and you will find things you can't hear/didn't notice while watching the film. Unfortunately, soundtrack is almost unnoticeable in many parts.but as far as i'm concerned, the film did not do justice to the great music that is on the force awakens soundtrack. It's no duel of fates, but it's definitely another great star wars score.

+sayenshin You serious? TFA soundtrack is amazing. It's not a pop album, it's an orchestral score that takes a little concentration to fully understand and digest. SPOILERS: The entire ending of the film (Rey flying to the island, climbing the steps and confronting Luke) is carried solely by the music, and brilliantly so. Farewell and the Trip + Jedi Steps on the soundtrack, go listen to it if you haven't already.

Ilkka Pättikangas Absolutely, there're gems in the soundtrack. But I'm still disappointed because there's no grandeur scene in the movie where the music steals the show. In each Star Wars movie, there's always a scene where it does that, though I might actually be inclined to think the Luke scene was it. However, it never reaches what Lucas succeeded in doing. But that's just my personal opinion.

Fair enough, I see your point :) I hope John Williams scores the next Episodes as well and we get a lot more of Rey's Theme and maybe also the new epic battle music ala Duel of the Fates or Battle of the Heroes

+sayenshin TFA is certainly missing some of the operatic qualities of earlier films - it wouldn't work as a "silent film" - but there are moments where the music is intended to be front and center. The entire opening five minutes is carried largely by the score; Rey's voyage through the desert; the Jedi Steps, all music. The script itself actually denotes moments where "MUSIC BUILDS" or something to that effect, which 99% of other movies do not.

Shawn Murphy has talked about Williams’s mic mix preferences in the past, how it’s primarily decca tree and wide mics most of the time-with spot/section mics only occasionally, usually in quieter sections or for decorative parts like harp/glock etc.

@Gerardo Gonzalez they Played Yoda's theme at the end of 9TROS, alongside Luke and Leia, when neither Luke, Leia, or Yoda were present. Anyway, Star Wars started with Anakin and Padme, so it is only fair that it somehow references it at the end.

Israel Raizer Cruvinel I think he may have just been referring to how they still had Episode III to do.

Still no waltz in Star Wars.

Bonus in the DVD ;)

Chi-Yu Mo is his name.

@@BrianBisetti ah thanks

Across the stars

Oops way too late

it was more of a variation on Leia's theme than anything tbh

Someone had to go to the bathroom...

yep

Hard to hear more then once without tearing up.

Shut up. Their romance was beautiful

*Mediocre movie. Not bad.

@@jakegearhart Good movie.

It's a masterpiece actually. You probably don't enjoy cringey love stuff

Movies are amazing.
