That 'depends on your point of view.'  :-) These two tracks are the only
ones that were newly composed for the SE's, but there is a lot of music
that wasn't available anywhere before (sometimes isn't even used in the
film).  For ANH and TESB, it's about 20 minutes each, and for ROTJ, it's
almost an hour of previously unreleased music.

Write your reply.

assistant: RE: Death Star built in complete secrecy.
Well, (By the way, I stand corrected: Palpatine did know about it.)
Anyway, the plans were developed at a secret scientific installation called
Maw Installation, which is naturally cloaked from detection by a cluster of
black holes the prototype was built there, and it and the design team left
there after the whole Death Star project was finished. Except for Bevel
Lemisk (sp?), who was brought out to a secluded, HEAVILY guarded prison
planet, where the Death Star was built using the prisoners as the expendable
labor force. Enough construction debris and waste was left in orbit around
the prison planet to cause serious problems for anybody trying to land a ship
there, also some problems for the planet's ecosystem, so what prisoners that
were left were left there to die. Everybody else involved with the project
were executed, except for Bevel, who eventually went on to oversee
construction of Death Star II.
Of course, this is all gleaned from the novels, mostly the Jedi Academy
Trilogy, and many people don't consider the novels canonical. So take this
info however you wish.
