kanan’s end credits var 1 (trans. by me)

what i really like about the opening of this cue is how the kiners start with a more sparse harmonization and then builds on each repetition by adding more in the inner voices... it’s a super neat effect! it’s a very stable harmonization too, going I--V7--V--I and repeat, with an added sixth in the V7. the ascending fifth in the mezzo voice in m3 is, imo, a deliberate reference to the star wars main title motif, esp since the kiners do a more specific main title quotation later in the cue, but it also decreases stress by returning us to the tonic. it’s a very stately moment, solemn yet joyful, lots of circular motion, returning to the center, life to death to life again.

What’s ahsoka’s music motif?

ok! so! it’s the flute melody right at the beginning of this track, the daaaaa-da-daaaaa, da da daaaaa-da-da-daaaa, the sad kinda pentatonic kinda sounding thing

what’s super exciting is that ahsoka’s theme also plays at the beginning of the new clone wars trailer, but in the piano, not on the flute. that means that this is an entirely new score, not recycled music that has already been produced, it was written SPECIFICALLY for this trailer, which is dave and kevin’s way of acknowledging ahsoka as THE BREAKOUT CHARACTER of the clone wars. 

usually for sw trailers you get the opening fanfare or the force theme (as seen in the jedi fallen order trailer, at the veeeeery very end) so with this trailer coming out, balls to the wall, declaring this the AHSOKA TANO SHOW, rather than , like, the continuing adventures of anakin and obiwan. that means so much to me. aotc may have been my first sw experience but tcw was the firrst time i really understood and came to love the universe, and ahsoka was 100% a major driving force in that. so to see dave and kevin validating tf outta me is just!!!!!!! ugh!!!!!!!!
