Cinematic Cue (Star Wars)

Here's some music I composed to learn about film scoring. I wanted something that didn't sound like John Williams and didn't use any of the themes from the movie, so I drew my inspiration from Antonín Dvořák, Aaron Copland, and Hans Zimmer. I'm looking for legit feedback. What are your thoughts?

I believe that you made it sounds more dramatic than it should sound.

But I never watched the movie, so I have no idea how important this moment is.

Also it sounded like parts of Lord of the Rings to me.

Sounds great. My thoughts are, when they reveal Luke it builds up but nothing happens, and then you build it up again when he takes off his hood. Building up and then tapering away is good for dramatic effect but once you do it too many times within the same scene, it starts to confuse the audience and subvert their expectations and is distracting.

 

Overall, the music is great though, I really felt the emotion and climax of the scene, and its importance. Great work!
