Star Wars 1 Suite


Star Wars 1 Suite - 
The Phantom Menace

Music by John Williams

Without a doubt, this is my favorite score of the first three episodes. The themes and fight sequences with the chorus and full orchestra knock me out every time it's heard. The race sequences are astonishingly complex and heart stopping and then it's time for another light sabre fight. Very cool!

I hope you enjoy this, the last and final installment of the Original Star Wars movie suites. There are still two more Star Wars movie suites to pass on, so stay tuned and may the force be with you. -MJ

Star Wars 2 Suite


Star Wars 2 Suite - 
Attack of the Clones

Music by John Williams

The blossoming love story of this episode consumes the music with many passages of sweeping strings and softer moments of reflection. It fits so well between episode one and three that it could not be any other way. When listening to this you'll be drawn back in, like we all are. Most of us prefer the power passages and thunderous music that John Williams brought us up on, but it's this movie suite that really shows us what a great composer that he really is. Simply elegant! And what about the final battle sequences? Enjoy. -MJ

Star Wars 3 Suite


Star Wars 3 Suite - 
Revenge of the Sith

Music by John Williams

John Williams really pulled all the stops out for this score. It has everything including the original themes we have come to know and love as well some new, lyrical themes that just grab you by the shoulders and make you listen! Certainly whatever could be written by yours truly has been said before, and no doubt, much better. Timing for this movie suite comes out at only a bit over 24 minutes, but it drives right from the beginning to the end. Enjoy. - MJ

Star Wars 4 Suite


Star Wars 4 Suite - 
A New Hope
Music by John Williams

Considering that this music was composed in 1976-1977, is a testamonial to the excellence that it is still played and listened by millions of music fans the world over. As we watched and listened while each theme was introduced to us for the first time, we couldn't help it as we fell in love.
At this point I think that's all I should say about this movie suite, except that I hope you enjoy it.
Oh yeah, "Luke, use the force..." Until next time. -MJ

Star Wars 5 Suite


Star Wars 5 Suite - 
The Empire Strikes Back

Music by John Williams

So much happens in this episode, that John Williams had music during nearly every moment of film. Taking that monumental work of arrangment and reducing to a 36 minute movie suite was fun, yet very rewarding. This score brings us Yoda and Lando and so much of Darth Vader whose presence is felt at every bar of the music. Sometimes suttle, sometimes in your face, but beware because Darth is just around the next corner. I hope you reconnect with your side of the force. Till next time...MJ

Star Wars 6 Suite


Star Wars 6 Suite - 
Return of The Jedi

Music by: John Williams

Sure, there are many of these Star Wars movie suites out there far, far away, but I feel as though I would be remiss if I did not post my versions of these classic tour-de-force motion picture soundtracks.
A music library would not be complete if it were missing this episode 6, since the music stands by itself and delivers on promises made in the earlier episodes. So, go to the well, draw from the well and drink.

May the force be with you. -MJ
