Sorry for the late reply - my PC's PSU failed...

I'm listening through the score again, and it's marvelous. I was thinking about writing a detailed feedback, but considering I'm not very knowledgeable in music and audio (and my English suffers when it comes to music terminology), that would be rather pointless.  All I can say this is the best version of TESB's score I've heard, and I'm disappointed my PC probably doesn't have good enough stereo for me to fully enjoy it.

 

I've listened to some of these tracks in a live performance of the Sofia Philharmonic Orchestra as part of a "Star Wars Suite" concert; your edit is the closest thing to capturing the feeling and detail of that concert. Thank you, I'll be looking forward to the 2010 version you mentioned.

 

PS. Dare I hope RotJ gets a similar treatment? Your previous effort was great, but the source scores (eh, the Anthology...) were less than spectacular and could benefit from a total overhaul. :)
