{"title":"Imperial March from Star Wars","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eEven people who have never seen Star Wars will recognize \u003cem\u003eThe Imperial March. \u003c\/em\u003eFans think of it as a galactic anthem.

This piece of music comes in when Darth Vader and the Empire are gaining power over Luke Skywalker.

He has instruments playing their lowest tones and a nearly non-stop flow of triplet beats driving the piece forward. Topped off with the dissonance from minor chords, you get an eerie feeling from the time the march kicks off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Imperial March \u003c\/em\u003eis a confident yet fearful, heavy march that is fun to play and easy to recognize.
