Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (soundtrack)

The Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker soundtrack was, as with the previous eight saga films, composed and conducted by John Williams. Recorded in Los Angeles and produced for Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker, the soundtrack has a total run time of 76:55, cut from the more than three hours' worth of music Williams wrote for the 2019 film. Music used in The Rise of Skywalker TV spots, including a new rendition of "Duel of the Fates," are included in neither the official soundtrack nor the film, and additional music taken from previous Star Wars films were edited into Williams' original score for the film. Nevertheless, the soundtrack introduces several new themes and leitmotifs while also drawing thematic connections from the rest of the Star Wars saga, incorporating themes and leitmotifs from throughout the prequel, original, and sequel trilogies for the final installment of the saga, which also marks the last score John Williams composed for the franchise after over forty years.
