Since 1977, excerpts from Star Wars has been gracing the concert stages. Originally conducted by John Williams, at the Hollywood Bowl and Boston Pops, many concerts featured just the Main Title and Cantina Band. Since then Williams himself has conducted just about everything listed below. Even in 2022, you'll hear the Imperial March as his final encore to the cheers of the audience. These specially arranged concert suites/themes for each film have been performed by multitudes of orchestras around the world.

The majority of these selections are available through the John Williams Signature Editions, which is how so many orchestras can perform them around the world. Currently, Episodes 4-8 have also been a major hit in the Live to Picture concerts worldwide.
