Maybe it will happen just like Goldsmith's Star Trek: The Motion Picture, with music being recorded until few days before the premiere.
No we can't let JW get a heart attack...

But it's definitely out of order, right?
-
WOW - complete War Horse - one of my JW holy grails.

Glad to see Reich on there, but no Adams?! As @Dixon Hill seems to suggest, that exclusion is wildly unwarranted.
-
Like @karelm, I have a ton I could choose here, but I'll pick these two:
The quasi-fugal stuff here (and earlier) is just incredible:
Puts a very old musical art form into a new action context. I love JW's action writing in general.
Second, the pure exuberance of this piece is one of my favorite sounds, and some of the chords are just perfect:
-
Did anyone happen to record the broadcast of the Violin Concerto last night? I listened to the last movement live but missed the first two.
-
I wonder if this might be a rejected trailer cue for TLJ or TROS. I could potentially see it being Williams, though - the audio quality is so terrible it's hard to tell. But on the other hand it does sound a bit trailer-y.

Starting to listen now.
Woah so the beginning music from the trailer was by JNH?!

Does Lucasfilm have someone in-house cutting the trailers or are those outsourced to editors as well? Because they're obviously giving chunks of the movie to those lucky people too. Just NDA's and all that. I'm sure it's all hilariously covert.
I do remember reading during the lead up to TFA that whoever cuts the trailers (can't remember who) gets shots from the movie completely out of order, and is basically told "make something cool out of this." That prevents plot leaks and also results in more exciting, visceral trailers that don't focus on explaining storylines, since the people cutting the trailer don't even know the plot.

wasn't Jedi steps the real version?
Yes, "Jedi Steps" wasn't significantly altered:
"The Spark," though, was a complete trailer re-arrangement:

OK I've sort of warmed to the music but still not a huge fan...

I mostly really liked the trailer from a visual standpoint actually.
Only the shot with thousands of Resistance ships seemed off. Some really gorgeous stuff in there otherwise.
I did like the forest shots a lot.

Yikes I kinda hated this trailer tbh. A lot of that is because of the bad music but also, like Jay, in general it just kinda rubbed me the wrong way. (maybe part of it was the really dark cinematography? Not quite Yates-bad but still bad.)
I'm watching it more though - maybe I'll start to like it more. I generally love SW trailers so this was a serious deflation of my hype.

OMG... This was awful music. (And this is coming from someone who ordinarily loves trailer music!)
Yikes.

Well, "Jojo's Theme" is a very pleasant listen, although rather predictable yet not particularly memorable...
-
Yep, the commercial you saw is likely the same one released on Twitter that I mentioned here:

Yeah it's awesome (mostly because of the very good choices of JW score snippets!).

Can't wait to watch it on Youtube Tuesday morning!
Nothing will entice me to watch NFL.
It'll be aired during halftime I'm sure, so no need to actually watch the game! (I think/hope)

Yeah, kids these days, what idiots. Glad I'm not one!

I didn't, although that's at least in part because I wasn't alive yet.

New article: Williams "has so far written about 25 minutes of score in about a month" for The Rise of Skywalker

Maybe JW's stuff was rejected and they're bringing in Ramin Djawadi for a last-minute re-score.
