This is a fun episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast as we discuss what we feel are the best musical moments of Star Wars.
There’s a LOT to choose from, but we did a good job (including alternates) of distilling things down to some of the most epic moments, methinks.
Let us know what you think!
Here is this week’s synopsis.
As we mourn the cancellation of Jazz Fest on the 24th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts — Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) — tackle the important question of what musical moments in Star Wars hit the hardest. Where do the musical wizardry of John Williams and the film-making talents of the various Star Wars directors mesh gorgeously, either in elevating scenes that might not have worked otherwise or in making the already great into something sublime. We each name our three favorite moments, list a ton of alternates, and basically just gush over the music of the Star Wars movies for the entire episode. Come and take a listen, and be sure to scroll down for a link to a playlist of our favorites. And let us know on social if you have your own favorites!
