SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 3:11 Min.
From composer-conductor John Williams, this instrumental track introduces the pivotal character portrayed by actress Daisy Ridley in 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
REVIEW:
Anchored by a youthful sense of adventure, this theme (with just the right tinges of New Age jazz) is a beautifully fresh supplement to John Williams’ Star Wars legacy. While the melody isn’t instantly distinctive, its whimsical motifs are finely-tuned to reflect Rey’s years of self-reliance surviving on the desert planet, Jakku. Williams ensures that this theme isn’t merely a retread of his work introducing Luke Skywalker nearly forty years before. Recommended!
