Tales of a Jedi Knight starts with strings and celeste and then gives a more developed statement of Ben's theme by English horn and cello. Muted horn, accompanied by piano and bongo, are heard as the threat of returning Sand People occurs, followed by bittersweet music for the scene in which C-3PO is found. The music continues in Ben Kenobi's desert dwelling, a previously unavailable section of the score. A solo clarinet states Darth Vader's theme as Ben tells Luke about his fallen pupil. Dialogue describing the defeat of the Jedi Knights is beautifully highlighted by descending flutes. This leads to the optimism of Ben's theme, with French horn against a background of harp, now linked to the Force for the first time as Kenobi describes the energy field to Luke. Learn About the Force features more previously unreleased music, with the return of Princess Leia's theme as her holographic message is played in its entirety. The melody is played by oboe and then joined by flute, fading away on a cloud of strings and harp. Cellos convey Luke's reluctance to join Ben's mission to Alderaan, with a clarinet-bassoon combination stating Ben's theme as the veteran Jedi resolves to undertake the journey alone. Then comes the sudden appearance of the now fully-developed Death Star motif, heard as the Star Destroyer approaches the monstrous Imperial battle station.

    "Well the Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us, it binds the galaxy together."
