STAR WARS™: BATTLEFRONT Game Scores Announced – music by Gordy Haab
Five years since the rebooted STAR WARS™: BATTLEFRONT series debuted, Walt Disney Records will release STAR WARS™: BATTLEFRONT and STAR WARS™: BATTLEFRONT II original video game soundtracks, featuring award-winning scores from composer Gordy Haab. The albums are being released sequentially on January 29 and February 5 and are the audio companion pieces to the critically-acclaimed action shooter games from Electronic Arts Inc. Both scores were performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and The London Voices Choir at Abbey Road Studios. They have garnered award wins for Haab including Music of the Year and Best Interactive Score from the Game Audio Network Guild (G.A.N.G.) Awards for STAR WARS™: BATTLEFRONT and Video Game Score of the Year from Film and Television Music Awards for STAR WARS™: BATTLEFRONT II. “I consider composing the original score for EA’s Star Wars™: Battlefront series one of my greatest accomplishments,” stated Haab. “Creating new music for a game with such high expectations was a colossal task, only made more daunting by my own passion and desire to pay honor to my favorite franchise. And for this reason, I poured a lifetime of love into every note. As did the orchestra who performed it – and every person who helped bring the music to life!”
