The “Force theme”, also known as “Ben Kenobi’s theme”, “Obi-Wan’s theme”, or “May the Force Be With You”, is one of the most beloved of John Williams’ music for the Star Wars saga. It appears in all of the films, but perhaps most memorably in the Episode IV: A New Hope, when Luke contemplates his future while watching a pair of suns set on the horizon. [source]
