Please send me your feedback and let me know if you have any problems with downloading from www.megaupload.com. Thank you!

Apologies to anyone who has recently attempted to download Symphony for a Saga. Apparently the old links no longer are working. Therefore I have re-uploaded all six suites of v1.0 today. These fresh links will be the last ones to be uploaded as I am preparing to release v2.0. Look for more information soon...

With the wonderful response to STAR WARS: Symphony for a Saga, it should be noted that this original version was a work in progress.

A new, expanded version of this great work is currently underway. This newer version will feature higher quality sound, encoded at a higher bitrate and offered as both MP3 and WAV audio. Likewise, each suite will be available for download as one single file or "tracked" into multiple files, as not everyone has the capability of creating a CD with a zero second track buffer.

In addition, some compositions have been reworked and re-edited, paying close attention to detail and seamless edits.

Each suite will be released individually upon completion. An advance single will be released before hand to promote the upcoming suite. Look for news of THE PHANTOM MENACE's single soon.

MUSIC VIDEO: I would also like to introduce the video editor for v2.0's accompanying "music video:" BrotherTheFirst...you may have seen his video work on the "Prequel Super Trailer" which can be seen here.

I am still seeking someone who can add titles to the video, as well as someone to help write an opening crawl for the entire saga. Please use the contact link to reach me.

STAR WARS: Symphony for a Saga has been added. Please view either disc one or two for details and be sure to read the liner notes below. This is not for sale and is never intended to make a profit.

STAR WARS: Symphony for a Saga is not intended as a replacement for the retail albums. This collection is fan made work of art, and a personal interpretation of the STAR WARS SAGA told through the wonderful music created by JOHN WILLIAMS. Thank you to his original vision and interpretation of STAR WARS, for which the world is eternally grateful.

Please support composer JOHN WILLIAMS and purchase the Original Motion Picture Soundtracks at your local retailer.

Thank you to GEORGE LUCAS, creator and visionary of the STAR WARS UNIVERSE. Thank you for having the courage to follow your dream and complete your tale. You have inspired many imaginations and given others the motivation to develop their talents and pursue their own goals. Thanks to you, the world will always have a home in a "Galaxy Far, Far Away..."

This album is dedicated to the millions of STAR WARS fans around the world. If this series, its stories and characters mean as much to your life as they do to mine...my sincerest wish is that this record touches and impacts your heart, and stimulates your imagination.

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!

After only a short while, STAR WARS: Symphony for a Saga has been downloaded by

hundreds of fans. Responses have been overwhelming, especially as the excitement continues to build toward the release of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith on May 18th.

Tomorrow morning, the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack for Episode III will be released, and included with the album is an exclusive 70 minute DVD, Star Wars: A Musical Journey...essentially the ultimate STAR WARS music video. It is my intention to top that.

Using the Symphony for a Saga as a guide, I would like to announce the intention of creating the ultimate STAR WARS fan made music video. To do this, I need quite a bit of help. I need people to contact me that are able to edit the video, lift center channel dialogue and sound effects from DVD, and create title effects. You must be able to create professional looking edits.

If you are able to help, please contact me.

With the impending release of STAR WARS - Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, the incredible STAR WARS saga is coming to a close. While adventures in a "galaxy far, far away" may continue in other formats such as television and novels, the movies are over.

One integral part of what makes these films so magical for millions of fans around the world is the brilliant music of John Williams. This fabulous score has reached many on a very emotional level, and has become iconic in our world. Recently, the original 1977 soundtrack was selected for preservation in the Congressional Library for its impact on our culture.

This site is dedicated to the Music of STAR WARS and it's many, many fans!

To launch, this site features a rare treasure. STAR WARS: Symphony for a Saga is a fan made compilation of music from all six STAR WARS films. This two disc album was skillfully crafted and edited from the Original Motion Picture Soundtracks.

With over 150 edits and nearly 50 individual cues, STAR WARS: Symphony for a Saga is a grand sweeping view of John Williams' music from the famous opening fanfare, through the story of the Skywalker family, and ending with a grand finale. Click here for more information.

Eventually, this site will aim toward compiling a comprehensive data base of STAR WARS music including scoring session notes, release information, rarities and bootlegs.

Thanks for stopping by...
