Star Wars Episode 6: Return of the Jedi by Original Soundtrack

This is a Hyper CD, which contains regular audio tracks and also provides a link to the artist's website with the help of a web browser. Composer: John Williams . Recording information: EMI Abbey Road Studios, London (01/1983 - 02/1983). John Williams's scores for the original STAR WARS trilogy are not only spectacular, but historically significant. For RETURN OF THE JEDI, the last movie in the first series, Williams builds upon many of his previous themes. However, he does this in a fresh, creative way. For example, the film's opening "Main Title/Approaching the Death Star/Tatooine Rendezvous" includes snippets from Darth Vader's "The Imperial March." This is a menacing piece that underscores the ruthlessness of Vader and the wickedness of the Emperor. "Jabba's Baroque Recital" is of the few tracks on this two-disc set that does not use an orchestra, but rather, a keyboard. This composition actually sounds more like an early Mozart pianoforte piece than a baroque fugue, but this does not detract from it...
