Hear The Amazing Score Isolated in New STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS Trailer
John Williams' iconic score is a major part of why Star Wars has become such a cultural phenomenon. There are so many fantastic themes placed throughout those films, and even the prequels have the amazing "Duel of the Fates" to keep them afloat. Williams' music was one of my favorite things about the new trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens (at least some of it — other parts were likely created by additional composers specifically for this trailer). When that riff on Han and Leia's love theme comes in as the Millennium Falcon races through the skies above Jakku, it gave me chills.
Thanks to Chicago-based graphic designer Tim Gonzales, we can now listen to the trailer's music without the dialogue or sound effects. He's isolated the music track, and even if you've already watched the trailer a dozen times, it's really cool to be able to watch it this way and put your full attention on the score. Thanks for sending this over, Tim!
