Andor and other Star Wars music breakdowns

I just noticed this YouTube channel on analyzing the music, and it's mind blowing. Check out the Andor theme breakdown, and the episode music breakdowns. There's whole layers of stuff in Andor we're missing: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuCty0Ik_7PJZYxYxQjYZpA/videos

You can have the same discussion about Glinda! Is magic innate to certain people or can you learn it in a seminar from Madame Morrible? Is the bubble Glinda’s magic or a technical trick provided to her by the Wizard? So much to discuss.

EXACTLY!!!! In the musical, Glinda casts no spells at all! But we still understand that she has some form of magical powers because she is so desperate to get into the sorcery seminar, which she eventually gets into thanks to Elphaba. So it is to be understood between the scenes (”off-stage”) she gets taught magic and can do magic spells, but has nowhere near the capabilities as Elphaba does which are ridiculously exceptional in the musical.

The bubble especially is super interesting precisely because it’s used in a theater production. With theater you have to lend your imagination and objects are more like representations. So we see the bubble is a very mechanical machine, but is that in canon or is that because it’s theater? So it could be a technical trick by the Wizard or it could be casted by Glinda (though, it’s suggested that it was a construction from the Wizard because when Elphaba confronts her about it she has no real reply). In a movie this dubiousness will be taken away because a movie has to fill in this interpretation, while in the musical an object only have to be a mere suggestion that the viewer can project their own ideas on.
