Soundtrack / Star Wars: A New Hope [Special Edition] - CD (Used)Author: John Williams Format: Import Release Date: 14 01 1997 Details: Amazon. ca There is no soundtrack composer working today more talented or consistent than John Williams, and the Star Wars trilogy represents some of his finest work. Though he uses few major themes (mostly tied to specific characters, signaling when they appear on the screen or do something important), there's also enough variety in the incidental music to keep things interesting.
