ZackR 95 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Good call, King Mark. I was actually thinking of starting a similar thread for all of Williams' various concert arrangements (not limited to SW) but just hadn't gotten around to it. This will make a nice start. Thanks!

Tom 4,633 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 When the Vienna CD comes out, it may dethrone the LSO version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duel of the fates: LSO OST Across the stars: LSO OST Battle of the heroes: LSO OST Asteroid field: Boston Pops Parade of the Ewoks: Boston Pops Cantina Band: Skywalker symphony (it was that or Prague) Here they come: Boston Pops Luke and Leia: Boston Pops Forest Battle: Boston Pops March of the resistance: Boston Pops Rey: Boston Pops Scherzo for X-wings: Boston Pops Jedi steps: Boston Pops Finale: Boston pops (although that FSO recording contains the concert ending, thanks for bringing them to my attention) The Rebellion is reborn: OST until someone helps me get the FSO files Han Solo and the princess: that Slovak orchestra that made the only studio recording even though it sucks Adventures of Han: OST Adagio: Dudamel Anthem of evil: OST Finale (ESB): Gerhardt Galaxy's edge: LSO Jabba the Hutt: Boston Pops The final battle: Gerhardt The kittle people: Skywalker symphony The Rise of Skywalker: OST Tydirium and Ricard 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,625 Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 sounds good.i'll try a combination of what people are suggesting bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew 590 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 This is the only decent-sounding alternate recording of "The Rebellion is Reborn" that I know about: I don't think we'll hear a cover of "The Rise of Skywalker" until the pandemic is over. Don't like the Prague recordings of the TPM suite? Don't forget about this release: Tydirium 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,337 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Because you can just tell they don't care. The LSO played it with emotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,625 Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 I don't like the way the LSO played it, way too slow .when Williams conducted it the piece was 2 minutes shorter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bollemanneke 3,337 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Well, that sounded off to me too, it sounded more like something he wanted to get out of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
