Music : Star Wars, The Phantom Menace
1 2
Rating: 
- Absolutley Wonderful
Star Wars Episode One: The Phantom Menace.
Star Wars Episode One: The Phantom Menace was the first of the "New Movies" that George Lucas has done, and he has brought back to the helm John Williams, Naturally! John has done it again! The music on this Soundtrack is of utmost quality, but nothing to surpass the originality of the first three feature films; Episodes 4, 5, and 6. The story for episode one may have seemed a bit juvenile when comapred to the first of the Star Wars Saga, but the music is still top Notch. I like to draw particular attention to Track Number 2; entitled "Duel of the Fates". What a wonderful piece of Cinematic music! It begins with outright showing of the power of the intended piece, with a simple three measure unaccompanied Choir burst which then ceases, and then the following silence gives way to an almost unhearable melody that gets your fingers tapping. It then begins to grow and the choir is then brought back into the piece, and it swells to a level that makes your sound system beg for mercy if at any reasonable volume. The piece then continues on as a fantastic deluge of sound that ends abruptly, but promptly after nearly 5 minutes. This piece make the CD worth its price. The other pieces that highlight this Soundtrack are; Track 8 "He is the Chosen One", Track 10 "Passage through the Planet Core", and Track 14 "The Droid Invasion and The Appearance of Darth Maul". This music is typical and pure Williams all of the way, and it is sure to please even the most devoted Williams music Fan!
Rating: - John Williams picks up where he left off...
The rousing, and epics scores of the original trilogy, are the best part of the stories, if not the whole series of movies. The movies and powerful epic that is called the Imperial March are one of the most well known and one of the strongest pieces of film music that has ever been written. John Williams then ingeniously re-engineered old themes to provide new ones that tie togehter old and new. When I heard about the release of the first of the series of 3 prequels, I beleived that it might be a flop, with the newer technology that promised to help out the cinematic elements of an aged theme. But the music brings sanity and congruence to parts in the movie that would make you cough. John williams is a master at writing for film, and has again taken the cup with no complaints from anybody. The best piece, and perhaps the most popular on this CD, is one of his best, it lies on track 2 and is entitled the "Duel of the fates". What an extrodinarily powerful piece of cinemtaic masterwork. John Williams gets not only two thumbs up form Siskel and Ebert, but thumbs up form a loyalist of the Star Wars Franchise. Well done! Very worth the money!

- Worth it for 'Duel of the Fates'
John Williams music is always good and his Star Wars related themes are particularly wonderful. This CD provides pretty much everything that you'd expect, so does not really require much of a review. For me, far and away the best scene in the film is the fight between Qui-Gon, Obi-wan, and Darth Maul which is accompanied by the stirring piece of music 'Duel of the Fates'. Being able to listen to this piece alone had made this CD worth buying. Other than this, it makes pretty effective background music if you want a change from pop music.
Rating: - Wow!
Absolutely loved it!Im 15,female and this is my favourite album.I was always a Star Wars fan but this soundtrack surpasses the previous three.My favourites are "Anakin's Theme","Duel of Fates" and "He is the Chosen One".The music is familiar yet in other ways completely different.I loved the "Force" music in "Watto's Deal" and the Darth Vader theme in "The High Council Meeting".I never heard anything like this!
Rating: - The force is strong with this one..
John Williams has exceeded himself once again and even after all this time he still hasn't lost his touch. The pieces are well written and still contain the Star Wars element experienced by many over 20 years ago, which we have all grown up to reconise and love soo well. The soundtrack is classed with the rest of the Trilogies soundtack and no less, this is no doubt a brilliant CD. Keep up the good work John Williams!
