WampaRat 1,105 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 This may have been done when the score originally came out. So I apologize. But with the deluxe edition’s release, we’re all listening to it again:) Overall, which is your favorite theme/motif composed by Powell from this score? Here’s a few examples of where they pop up in the score: Han & Qi’Ra love theme (0:00-0:30’ into “Han and Qi’Ra reunited”) Beckett/Gang theme (0:39-0:49’ in “Mimban Battle” 0:40-0:46 in “ Chewie Untamed” 1:46-2:16 in “Deluxe Train Heist”) Chewie Theme (2:16- End in “Chewie Untamed” 0:19- 1:13 in “Deluxe Train Heist” 2:55- 3:03 in “Kessel Run...” L3 theme (0:00-0:19 in “L3 and the Falcon” 0:27-1:00 entire fugue/Ron Goodwin March in “Deluxe Mine Mission” 5:26-5:46 in “Kessel Run...”) Enfys Nest/Marauders theme (4:43-5:00- “Deluxe Train Heist” 0:33-0:55 - “Enfys standoff” Its the whole choral chant texture thing) Conspiracy/Secrets Theme/motif (0:00-0:10- “Meet Han” 3:41-End - “Spaceport” 4:23- End - “Drydens Long Fight” Its a three note motif that pops up a TON throughout the score to denote danger/betrayal/Dryden/doom etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondheim 1,157 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 1: Where is the Conspiracy theme? 2: The music where Qi'ra changes sides and stares out the window, is that part of the love theme? Because if so, it's that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smaug The Iron 515 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 It stands between Chewie and Enfys Nest. But I think I go with Enfys Nest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because if so, it's that one. The “Conspiracy theme” is the three note motif that first opens “Meet Han” it’s typically associated with all things bad/evil betrayal Dryden etc. It’s all over the score. “ Lando’s closet”is a good showcase for the love theme.

blondheim 1,157 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 That three-note theme that opens the score would then be the same three-note theme that plays over the Qi-ra turn. Mystery solved, thanks. Which is also where my vote is going. That moment at the end was my favorite musical cue from the film after seeing it the first time and it still is.

Jay 37,363 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 You're gonna have to explain what these themes are and provide timestamps preferably with embeds cause I have no idea what's what Edmilson and Fabulin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmilson 7,448 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 If possible, can someone provide videos with timestamps for the themes? Jay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faleel 5,348 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Oh, and I went with Beckett/Gang But the Love theme, Enfys, and Chewie theme are all great to good as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WampaRat 1,105 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 Sorry. Some reviews referred to the “secrets” motif as the “Conspiracy” motif. Edited Also included some examples in the initial question post. But here they are: Han & Qi’Ra love theme (0:00-0:30’ into “Han and Qi’Ra reunited”) Beckett/Gang theme (0:39-0:49’ in “Mimban Battle” 0:40-0:46 in “ Chewie Untamed” 1:46-2:16 in “Deluxe Train Heist”) Chewie Theme (2:16- End in “Chewie Untamed” 0:19- 1:13 in “Deluxe Train Heist” 2:55- 3:03 in “Kessel Run...” L3 theme (0:00-0:19 in “L3 and the Falcon” 0:27-1:00 entire fugue/Ron Goodwin March in “Deluxe Mine Mission” 5:26-5:46 in “Kessel Run...”) Enfys Nest/Marauders theme (4:43-5:00- “Deluxe Train Heist” 0:33-0:55 - “Enfys standoff” Its the whole choral chant texture thing) Conspiracy/Secreta Theme/motif (0:00-0:10- “Meet Han” 3:41-End - “Spaceport” 4:23- End - “Drydens Long Fight” Its a three note motif that pops up a TON throughoutthe score to denote danger/betrayal/Dryden/doom etc) There are WAY more examples of all of these. Some played faster/slower in bits and pieces all over. A wonderful musical tapestry worthy of the Star Wars brand. Edmilson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmilson 7,448 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Great, thanks! Here's my ranking of the themes: Chewie Gang Love theme L3 Conspiracy Enfys Nest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faleel 5,348 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Probably: Gang Enfys Chewie Love Secrets L3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Edmilson 7,448 Posted November 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2020 Chewie's theme is a like a distant cousin of the friendship theme from How to Train Your Dragon. Maybe friendships between humans and fantastic beasts inspire Powell in the same way. Kasey Kockroach, WampaRat and Fabulin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manakin Skywalker 4,892 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 The "lying" motif is probably my favorite. The "conspiracy" motif is a close second due to it's versatility. That buildup towards the end of "Enfys' Stand-Off"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WampaRat 1,105 Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 No love for L3s little Ron Goodwin-esque fugue? That one is an ear worm for me. Love how it’s developed all through Mine Mission. Pieter Boelen and crumbs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love how it’s developed all through Mine Mission. I love that theme! I just love the love theme more It's really hard to choose. All the new themes are superb! Powell's themes are just as strong as Williams' Solo theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
