    I went with the Force theme, but really, it all depends on my mood. The Imperial March is one of my favorites and I like Across the Stars as well. But like now, Í couldn't listen to the Imperial March. So I'd prefer to put on something lighter, more mystical- like the Force theme.

    The Main Theme was the best. after all, it is the first song in the movie.(not including the 20th Century Fox Fanfare)

    Thought I should post this here.

    A new compilation of Star Wars concert suites is currently in the works. The album will feature music from all six Star Wars films, newly recorded by Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra. Recording sessions took place earlier this month, for a fall 2006 release.

    Can I expect a Grievous concert arrangement?:cool:

    I think "Battle of the Heroes" is the only concert arrangement from Sith.

    But you never know.

    Err? What about "Anakins' Dark Deeds" ? "Anakin's Betrayal", and "Padmé's Destiny" (well that's actually probably just a remix).

    "Duel of the Fates" barely beats "Battle of the Heros" for me. TPM has the best overall soundtrack, IMO.

    I adore Anikin's Betrayal, made better because its over looked by so many on the board by the more over-done, to the point of becoming trite, main theme ect.

    A concert arrangement is an alternate/expanded version of a cue or an extrapolation of a theme intended for performance at concerts or inclusion on compilation CDs, not the original score. It doesn't mean "good cues." ;)

    I'm not talking about decent cues, I'm refering to cues with concert arrangements, alternate or not alternate. Which is why I listed Anakin's Dark Deeds (some choir here and there) and Anakin's Betrayal (reminiscent of BOTH).

    Neither of which are a concert arrangement or a theme.

    That makes absolutely no sense. Choir is considered concert arrangement? Cues that are reminiscent of "Battle of the Heroes"? A concert arrangement is a cue not recorded for the film. It's something written in the composers own time not specifically intended for the film to be scored. It's usually a modification of an actual film cue, but sometimes it is completely original from anything in the film's score (e.g. "The Imperial March," "Yoda's Theme").

    I have no idea on how he came up with that, Cerrabore. You would have done alright if you had said Anakin's Betrayal, but I prefer to think of that as a Reprise, rather than a theme.

    My personal favorite is Duel of the Fates. That song just gets me pumped. Then it would have to be The Throne Room. That song is just cool.

    Those are both very nice pieces of music. However, you might take it under advisement that they are not "songs," since songs use the voice as a primary instrument; they have words (I know there are words in Duel of the Fates, but I think it was decided that "choral piece" would be a more accurate term). The pertinent terms around here would be cue, track, or in this case theme.

    I threw another vote in the Force theme pile. It's always good. Second place might go to the Han/Leia love theme.
