Phantom Menace 1M3 The Arrival - Part 2 - short score analysis

Something of a teaser really before the annotated discussion next week. At the moment I'm intrigued by the various hexatonic (and other) sets as well as the way JW sets the scene both in terms of the overall feel for the film (which is a real change from the originals) and the changes of mood at the mention of Darth Sidious and the Jedi's conversation.    

The array of scales and modes is prolific in this clip (vibes, harp, celeste and synth)

The short score is dubbed with the film so that we can see all the nuances of JW's score.
