Hit: 4 Stars
An interesting piece in the impressionistic vein. While it's called the "soundtrack" to the book, it's not a scene-by-scene interpretation; some tracks are, to be sure ("Beggar's Canyon Chase"; "The Battle of Gall"), many of the other tracks are orchestral suites based on the characters of the (rather mediocre) book. "Xizor's Theme" is quite good, and "The Seduction of Princess Leia" (written as a waltz) has a very 'slavic' feel to it. And finally, the purely impressionistic "Imperial City", with massive dynamics from almost silent to booms and crashes worthy of any Romantic Composer. Williams' themes make brief cameos here and there, some more obvious than others. All in all, a very pleasant album.
