Listen to John Williams' score for Disney's Star Wars theme parks

John Williams may have finished with "Star Wars" after the title "Episode IX" next year, but he has not finished yet. Entertainment Weekly reports that the legendary composer, who has brought his musical styles to the space-opera franchise for over 40 years, provides an original score for the "Star Wars" themed country, known as Galaxy & # 39; s Edge, which will open in the theme parks in 2019. Listen to a preview below.

Here's what EW has to say about this new attraction: "The village, known as the Black Spire, is an isolated commercial outpost nestled amid the rocky peaks of an ancient petrified forest. The city serves as a link to Casablanca between the forces of good, evil and each other when they clash for control of the galaxy. It will include two main rides, "Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run" and "Rise of the Resistance". , "Which simulates a space battle and takes place on a first-rate spaceship.

This new offering fits perfectly with Williams' previous contributions to the series, which made its way into the eight main films, as well as this year's "Solo: A Star Wars Story" spin-off series; he composed the theme song for this underperforming film, while John Powell composed the main score. Michael Giacchino is busy with the music of "Rogue One".

Williams has won five Oscars, including one for the original "Star Wars", and has been nominated for another 51 awards. Walt Disney is the only person to receive more nods. His score for the original "Star Wars" was named the largest American film score of all time by the American Film Institute in 2005 and was kept by the Library of Congress.
