Using various forms of percussion and woodwinds, Kiner gives Master Secura a unique theme that fits her perfectly. Jedi Master Aayla Secura is a prime example of this. While it is nice that Kiner is Williams-esque in some ways, he also adds new things to the score that we haven’t really heard in Star Wars. John Williams always finds a way to use a choir effectively and with great emotion, so it is very encouraging to see Kevin Kiner continuing that. The following tracks, Plo Koon and Rodia, make great use of choral elements, an aspect of Star Wars music that rarely disappoints. This is very unfortunate as I feel like there could have been so much more. In fact, it does so abruptly enough that I had to go and make sure that it played all the way through. A soaring version of The Force Theme makes an appearance and then…the track ends. It is a very intense track, full of roaring brass and pounding percussion.

The album opens with a rousing track called Ahsoka Saves Anakin. Aside from some tracks that were made available through Kiner’s official website, this is the first time the series has seen an official soundtrack release (excluding the theatrical movie that preceded it). Star Wars: The Clone Wars Seasons 1-6 Original Soundtrack, composed by Kevin Kiner, is a 57-minute, 28 track album that includes music from every season of TCW. One thing that the fans have been asking for is a soundtrack to the award-winning series, and thanks to Walt Disney Records, it is now a reality.


Even though Star Wars: The Clone Wars has officially come to an end and made way for a new era of Star Wars television, that hasn’t stopped Disney or Lucasfilm from surprising the fandom with even more TCW content.
