The City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra tackles composer John Williams' decade-spanning Star Wars score on the 13-track Music From the Star Wars Saga. Highlights include The Empire Strikes Back's "Imperial March," The Phantom Menace's "Dual of the Fates" and A New Hope's "The Throne Room -- Finale." The orchestra's renditions are faithful, yet lacking in the original's intensity and bombast. Discriminating fans of the films would be better off with the numerous editions of the saga's original recordings.
