4.0 out of 5 stars should have been longer, double cd like LOTR, May 30, 2005

By	tjguitar - See all my reviews

This is a good compiliation, as usual the City of Prague Orchestra is fantastic with there re-recordings. My biggest complaint is, well, only 1 track form episode 2, one track from episode 6, and all the tracks from episode 1 are on "The Sci Fi album vol 1" and "Space 3: beyond the final frontier". Other tracks were already released on various space and beyond compiliations from silva as well. I think they should have waited until after episode 3 and released a double album..maybe they will...that would be cool. This is a good cd by all means, I just think it should have been longer, a double cd set like the star trek album and lord of the rings. But for what is here, it is performed wonderfully.

My six-year old has become a huge fan of Star Wars and enjoys listening to this disc. It has the best tracks of each episode.

5.0 out of 5 stars This jazz musician loves it!, November 15, 2004

By	Roger C. (NYC) - See all my reviews

Wouldn't it be great if you could take all the best music from the 5 Star Wars films and combine them into a modern, coherent orchestral performance? That's what this album is. Don't spend $100 on all the separate soundtracks and sit through five hours of filler music. The Prague Philharmonic Orchestra brings out the artistry of John Williams in this single CD that classical music buffs will love, never mind Star Wars fans. But forget Star Wars - this is high quality music in its own right.
