Hey all,

I've recently posted another video.

___________

STAR WARS Symphonic Forces Volume XI "Probe Droid Renascence - Aboard the Executor"

Perhaps one of the strangest cues written for Empire Strikes Back, this cue starts out really interestingly.

There had to have been some minor editing but I don't believe that was why the cue was removed. There was both editing during the discussion in Echo base but also some in the establishment of Vader's fleet.

The cue starts off rather ominously and even goes into a great, subdued statement of Vader's theme when 3PO announces that the droid found might be Imperial in origin.

The cut to the droid, and the music surrounding it's destruction is reminiscent of the arrival at Hoth by the droid.

Once the droid is destroyed, the scene transitions to the Imperial Fleet. We hear, stated here rather strongly the Imperial March. There was a deal of editing here to extend the sequence and show more of the interior of the ship, along with the omission of most of the march segment of the cue it self, instead replaced with the Album Concert version of the theme.

The music does cut back in when we see the Admiral and General interrupted as they walk through the ship to be told of the find on Hoth.

The rest of the cue plays out as originally planned.

You can view the video here:

I had to talk the old video down. There was a sync error and the video also was mis-named within the credits as "Volume X" so I had to fix it.
