4.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful Ending to the Star Wars Saga, July 10, 2005

By

This review is from: Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (Piano Solos) (Paperback)

Film composer extraordinaire John Williams closes out the Star Wars saga on a good note (no pun intended). Those who currently own other Star Wars sheet music will notice that this book includes previously published pieces such as "The Force Theme" and "End Title/Credits". However, the hauntingly sorrowful "Anakin's Dark Deeds" and the fast paced Maestoso "Battle of the Heroes" in orchestration take the viewer on an emotional roller coaster that has "Duel of the Fates" like intensity. This book, written for piano solo, is a farily accurate representation of the soundtrack. However, you will find that some of the pieces are not in their original key and require tranposition to be played along with the soundtrack. For a fan of John Williams or Star Wars, this is a book worth having in your collection.

2.0 out of 5 stars Never Had A Problem With Amazon Before, August 19, 2005

This review is from: Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (Piano Solos) (Paperback)

I'm getting a little upset that this item has not been shipped to me yet, as it is the 19th of August and I ordered it on the 1st. First I thought that the item wasn't in stock, but even as the days went by with no package from Amazon, the book was clearly in stock. I've already received Amazon orders that were made after this one. It's a little ridiculous that I haven't gotten it yet, and I'm tempted to cancel the order even though I haven't seen the book anywhere else. I just don't know what's taking Amazon so long with this specific order.
