John Williams' lovely and moving score for the sixth Star Wars film brings thirty years of collaborating on George Lucas' beyond-popular intergalactic franchise to a close. (Is this really the end of Star Wars? Can't Lucas and Williams work together on a prequel to these prequels? Let us hope so, and that Jar Jar Binks is nowhere near it.) As this music accompanies the most exciting Star Wars film in many a moon, the soundtrack itself is more fun, more evil, more nasty and bumpy. Many of the heroic, anthemic themes woven throughout Episode Three: Revenge of the Sith will necessarily be familiar to any fan of the series, from the "Imperial March" to the main theme. It's remarkable how stirring the latter can be, no matter how many times you've heard it, and even for those who do not have all their money invested in S.W. memorabilia. There is a lot of new music here, and the lush, extensive range of both Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra is on display, most notably in the menacing, percolating "General Grievous" and the rousing "New Hope" end theme. --Mike McGonigal

Customer Reviews:
Star Wars: A Musical Journey (2005) (V).......2007-06-21
product: Star Wars: A Musical Journey (2005) (V), included as bonus disc in Episode III soundtrack.
The bonus dvd with this soundtrack was the reason I purchased. I enjoy film soundtracks, and science fiction, but this dvd was a real highlight for me. I got the soundtrack cd out of the local library. The cd was missing from the case, but I found this wonderful dvd instead that I went out to purchase later.
With optional segments of dialog from Ian McDiarmid, this film is a stunning visual and musical overview of the full epic story of episodes I-VI of Star Wars. For those of us who felt that eps. IV-VI fell short of our expectations, this film presents them well as parts of the whole story. The Musical Journey also stands as a summary of the entire SW opus for someone who is not familiar with the Star Wars characters and plot. Highly recommended.
Options: no subtitles or other options.
Not one of his bests, but very close.......2007-05-21
The Episode III soundtrack is very good. Not great, but very, very good. You can tell that Williams is getting old, but he still manages to weave together a very memorable score.
My favorite tracks are "Battle of the Heroes," "Anakin's Betrayal," Palpatine's teachings, "Anakin vs. Obi-Wan," and the "Immolation Scene."
The others are very good as well, but these are especially nice. "Battle of the Heroes" is Dual of the Fates for Revenge of the Sith. "Anakin's Betrayal" is a very sad track that is, in my opinion, one of William's most powerful pieces. "Palpatine's Teachings" is really, really neat. It's very dark and moody, a perfect piece for the evil emperor. The only weird thing is the end. "Anakin vs. Obi-Wan" is the action piece that plays during the battles of Anakin and Obi-Wan, and Yoda and the Emperor. Finally, "The Immolation Scene" is another sad piece, even more so than "Anakin's Betrayal."
Although I really like this CD, there are some things that are missing (as usual). First, the whole sequence where the droids are looking for Obi-Wan after he was shot. You see Obi-Wan in his ship with Senator Organa on the Hologram (or whatever it is), and Obi-Wan says that his clones turned on him. That was some pretty awesome music that OF COURSE was left out of the CD. Then there was Dual of the Fates in the movie, but completely absent from the CD. And probably the most annoying was that whole piece of music before Obi-Wan and Anakin fight. It was so touching and sad and I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY LEFT IT OUT! Absolutely amazing. Also, did anyone notice that some little bits were cut out? For example, in Anakin vs. Obi Wan, they cut out about a second or two of choir. What?! What the heck is with that? It's when Anakin is running on the long thing and jumps on the droid on the lava. Also, there was some pretty cool drumming when you see Yoda and the Emperor fighting, and you can see the whole stadium (the big room). There's also drumming in "Enter Lord Vader" that is muted in the soundtrack.
Oh well...if I'm going to collect movie scores, I'm going to have to get used to the fact that in almost all cases there's not going to be every bit of music. I've experienced this in both Pirates of the Caribbean, Jurassic Park I (there was very little left out on this score), and almost everything else. At the moment, I'm just waiting for the 22nd, for the Pirates of the Caribbean 3 soundtrack. It's gonna be amazing.

John Williams' finest work.......2007-04-20
There is little more I can say that hasn't already been said about the soundtrack to Episode 3, especially what Amazon contributor Dan Mohr wrote in his review of the soundtrack on 2/2/2006. His review captured almost all the thoughts, feelings, and emotions I had when I first listened to the soundtrack, and was, IMO, the best review of John Williams' greatest masterpiece.
Having said that, I will say that few soundtracks have ever so perfectly captured the underlying emotional currents of their respective movie; in the case of ROTS, the contemporaneous tragedies of Anakin's fall to the Dark Side, the extermination of the Jedi, and the rise of the oppressive Empire. The listener is confronted with the depth and totality of the evil that has beset the entire galaxy to a degree that the film could not reach in only 2 hours.
Bravo, Dan Mohr, and BRAVO John Williams!
A Great Conclusion to the Prequel Trilogy.......2007-04-07
This is a great work of art. I rank it 4th among Star Wars soundtracks after A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and The Phantom Menace. I had a hard deciding which I thought was better, The Phantom Meance or Revenge of the Sith, but I decided that The Phantom Menace lays the foundation for so much that is in this soundtrack and is thus the more masterful work. But that doesn't mean that this score still isn't great. Every piece is a thrill to listen to and pace never lets up. "Battle of the Hereos" is an amazing piece and the rendition of the "Funeral Theme" from Episoded I captures the film's tragety magnificently. Also I do not think John Williams could have portrayed the Jedi's extinction more perfectly than he did in "Anakin's Betrayal". This is without a doubt the best score of 2005 and one of the best of the decade.
Williams is slumming it.......2007-04-01
Williams's score for Revenge of the Sith is almost entirely overbearing, lacking any emotional subtlety. The music is overcomplicated and even a bit confusing, especially in the tracks that correspond to action sequences in the movie. His overuse of choral tracks and vocals is too bombastic and irritating to be listened to without the explosions and laser blasts of the soundtrack to soften them. (Yes, this music is actually softened by the sounds of warfare.) Worst of all, much of the music has simply been lifted from earlier scores. At times his self-imitation was so blatant that I actually wondered whether the editor who had complied this score had made a mistake and I was listening to The Empire Strikes Back or A New Hope. Also suffers from not including the entire score, in some cases cutting out musical segues in obvious and awkward ways.

Best single EVER!!!.......2004-03-24
This is THE VERY FIRST review I have ever written here on Amazon. I have owned this CD single for about 7 years and let me tell you one thing....the live versions of Policy of Truth and In Your Room are good, the Zephyr and Jeep Rock remixes of IYR are very good, but the Adrenaline Mix of Higher Love is my favorite music track....OF ALL TIME!!!!
Seriously...Francois Kevorkian went where no DJ has gone before and served up an abolutely fantastic mix of what was already my favorite DM song of all time. This single is one of the remaining few CDs I keep in rotation in my car(I usually use my mp3 player), because it's so incredible! If you are a fan of DM even in the slightest, you *MUST* buy this CD single ASAP! I mean like...NOW. It absolutely rapes all other DM singles in my opinion!
One of the TOP 3 DM SINGLES TO OWN.......2004-01-08
This single is a must-have. The remixes are 'sublime', and the Live tracks make it all the more worth it. The JEEP ROCK and APEX mixes are standouts...along with both ZEPHyr versions, which is the way the band has been performing 'In Your Room' in concert since the SINGLES tour...so get acquainted with it. (For new fans, this is the version you've seen in 'One Night in Paris' DVD) The Higher Love Adrenaline mix is a powerful rendition that really gives the song justice. Get this, along with both 'Only if I lose myself' singles and you've got 3 of the best recent DM singles ever.
A great singles CD from DM.......2003-10-31
Without going into the details of each song in this singles CD, it's simply one of the very best singles CD from DM. Every song is mesmerizing. Different versions of the same singles, as always from DM, have great variations. And it's no exception to 'In Your Room'. Once again DM have delivered what their fans expect from them.
A deep dark mode.......2002-09-22
In your room is probably the most well-written, articulated and emotion driven song off of Songs of faith and devotion and surprisingly the best single as well. First of all, everyone is allowed to have their own opinion about a particular version but please don't let the popular opinion of other reviews in regards to the "zephyr mix" of this song sway you against buying this single.
Firstly, in regards to all those who feel that the zephyr mix " ruined " the song, It is simply a remix, and in this case there are numerous remixes of the song and each are different and everyone has their preferences ( my favorite version on this cd is the "apex" mix where they barely sing at all ). Please do not let these individual opinions lead you to believe that the only quality song you will be getting is the album version itself. In MY opinion, the zephyr version is a welcomed cheerier enterpretation of a song that's original version is quite intense and at times unsettlingly eerie. I applaud DM for trying a different approach to the song and since my first DM cd WAS the singles collection, that mix was the first version I had ever heard and I wouldn't have gone ahead and purchased this single if I didn't like THAT version. You will find both versions to be quite a contrast to each other but then, isn't that what we would like to hear when we buy a maxi single anyway???
And let's not leave out the great live tracks on this cd as well. A very nicely done live track of In your room as well as a song I like to consider somewhat of an added bonus, Policy of truth, which is probably my favorite version of that song with it's upbeat, anthem style rhythm. Also don't forget about the other remixes on this cd. the "Apex" mix features what I always consider to be a very rare treat for all DM afficianados: Hearing Martin Gore on a totally Dave Gahan vocal song. This is probably the most sensual version as it creates a moody, raw ambience. All versions carry the intesity of the album version but without the gloominess.
As a whole, I think this is a very sucessful single that should please everyone except for the DM-snobs who cry bloody murder if by chance they don't like a particular version. Tsk Tsk, you should know better!
Just excellent!.......2001-10-31
What can I say!!
Excellent song, excellent single, Depeche Mode the best band of the World!
You must buy this single!

Customer Reviews:
the best music ever.......2004-02-19
My daughter ( at age 17) bought this CD and played it at home. I instantly fell in love with the music. It is the most incredible music I have ever listened to. I put it on my computer so that every time I am on
-line I can listen to it.
Greatest hits of classical music.......2001-08-13
The use of the words "from the Movies" in the title of this compilation is misleading. While there are a handful of titles that were great originals from movies (the Star Wars theme, for example), the majority of the music is simply great classical music that happened to show up in a movie. This technicality aside, the music was amazing. The clarinet concerto and the Puccini opera from "Witches of Eastwick" are two of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written.
An excellent collection of classic music from great movies.......2001-08-03
I belong to that camp of people who think that if Mozart was alive today he would be writing scores for theatrical films. The best thing about "Music From the Movies" is that it combines the use of classical music in movies, such as Wagner's "The Ride of the Valkyries" in "Apocalypse Now" and Puccini's "O Mio Babbino Caro" in "A Room With a View" with John Williams' "Main Title" from "Jurassic Park" and the "John Dunbar Theme" from John Barry's score for "Dances With Wolves." Unfortunately of the 33 tracks on this 2-disc set, only the last half-dozen or so are by contemporary composers. So the chief charm of this collection remains that it allows you to identify the classic music used in movies such as "Platoon," "A Clockwork Orange," "Wall Street," and "Kolya." Placido Domingo and Herbert Von Karajan are representative of the singers and conductors included in this collection, which is truly one of the better sets featuring classical music in the movies.
This is nourishment for the soul!.......2001-06-04
I ordered this CD to get one piece of music only. What I received in reality was a compilation of masterpieces to refresh and enliven my very soul. The operatic selections are well known pieces performed by 'the great ones' (i.e Placido Domingo). Here you get the best of opera without having to endure what the uneducated would consider tendious. Additionally, I was surprised to discover how many movies themes were excerpts from the classics. This CD includes the name and movement of each selection, as well as the performer. It is a wonderful appetizer before investing in a full meal. I didn't begin with this intention, but now I want to hear complete pieces; anticipating a new excitment for many of the composers.

Customer Reviews:
the kid and adult's opera.......2000-08-24
By using the fantastic creatures of Maurice Sednak's fantasty world, Oliver Knussen has built a bridge between generations who would appreciate the world of opera. Casting coloratura soprano Rosemary Hardy (and boy does she go into the stratosphere) in the role of Max Knussen has vividly captured Sednak's fantasty world. This listener can draw connections with another opera based on children Ravel's "L' Enfant et les sortileges" but Knussen always retains 'his' voice. Not as dense as some of the polyphonic line writing found in Knussen's instrumental works, the opera still shines with his characteristic kaleidoscopic orchestration. The scene with Max battling the vacuum cleaner is clever and equally vivid (albeit the lack of the visual element). The listener can conjure a picture of the crazy vacuum cleaner out of control much like a child listening to a story told by a parent. Quite an accessible opera, the recording will have impact upon future listenings.
