Sourced context
"Duel of the Fates" is a musical theme recurring in the Star Wars prequel trilogy and the Expanded Universe. It was composed by John Williams and recorded for the film soundtrack of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace by the London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) and the London Voices. This symphonic piece is played with both a full orchestra and a choir. The lyrics are based on a fragment of an archaic Welsh poem, Cad Goddeu, and are sung in Sanskrit. The piece debuts during the final lightsaber duel in The Phantom Menace. With the music video for this theme, the LSO became the only classical group ever to have a video debut on MTV’s Total Request Live. "Duel of the Fates" lasted 11 days on the countdown.
