Aprašymas
The true force of Star Wars is not a mystical energy field--it is music. John Williams's contribution to the Skywalker Saga is a singular achievement in the history of film music and the history of music more generally. His intricate, inventive, unforgettable scores define cinema's most beloved franchise. Imagine the twin suns of Tatooine setting without the sound of a solo French horn, or Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker battling without their themes clashing on the soundtrack. These contributions are crucial to the franchise's ability to capture the imagination of generations, in and outside the movie theatre.
In this groundbreaking book, Frank Lehman explores the totality of Williams's Star Wars musical universe, an orchestral epic that spans nine movies and over four decades of cinematic history. Drawing on his unparalleled knowledge of the series' soundscape, Lehman argues for hearing the saga as a fundamentally symphonic experience, one where close attention to the soundtrack is rewarding, even essential. Engaging and accessible for casual fans, yet supported by rigorous research methods and critical perspectives, The Skywalker Symphonies lends Williams's magnum opus the seriousness it deserves.
Sure to be the benchmark for future studies of this series, The Skywalker Symphonies will change how you hear Star Wars--and all symphonic music--forever.
