Thanks for adding this. I'm so happy Williams has created a concert piece of this often overlooked cue. I couldn't believe it when I saw it listed in the programme.
One thing that makes me tear up when watching The Force Awakens is when Leia says to Han "If you see our son. Bring him home." Oh how I cry thinking of that scene because Leia and Han didn't know they were saying good bye to each other for the final time
Ah! I’m tearing up to this! I’ve heard this version before by different orchestras, but once again, the LSO absolutely crushed it! I still don’t understand why in the heck Disney would prefer studio musicians over the LSO other than costs, but come on!
Oh, I’m not doubting the talents of the LA musicians. They are awesome! It’s just that the scoring stages and the way music is recorded and mixed in those stages just don’t have the same amount of punch to me.
This is absolutely beautiful. Makes me think that Han and Leia will live forever in this piece of music x
Totally!

Wendy, yeah I feel the same way and I thought who better to record playing it than the LSO! :)

sguinn91 Williams cant Fly to London...and the studio orchestra is based with the finest musicians of Los Ángeles.

Absolutely correct. It may have to do with the LSO's other commitments. But they really are THE Star Wars orchestra.
