The Adventures of Jar Jar

Canon

"The Adventures of Jar Jar" is a musical track and suite composed by John Williams for the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace. Performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, it is first played when the Jedi Qui-Gon Jinn encounters the Gungan outcast Jar Jar Binks. The musical theme functions as a leitmotif for Binks throughout The Phantom Menace.

"The Adventures of Jar Jar" includes the "Droid Invasion Theme" and "Anakin's Theme" as well as a phrase from Williams' "The Flight To Neverland" track from the 1991 film Hook. The theme also contains a phrase from the cut Revenge of the Sith track "The Boys Continue."
