Okay, for Ryan, who wants to "see" the music (which is not wholly incorrect
when you close your eyes :)
It reminds me a lot of Russian music. Excellent for a duel, fast-paced, a good
choice of composition for a battle to decide the future for years to come.
It has choir accompaniment, the lyrics of which I can't make out totally,
which leads me to think it's a phrase and/or language found in the movie. The
first words sound like, "Coda Nah Tah, Coda Na Nannah"; there's more, and it
definitely has verses to it but I don't know the words and they're a bit hard
to make out (as choir lyrics often are).
It is high energy for most of the track, Horngold yet dark, very much a sense
of forboding in the music - I guess hence the Phantom Menace. When the music
is quieter, it's busy like something is happening in the background, but still
dark.
There is very definitely a melody that runs through it, but I detected no Ep
4, 5, or 6 themes, no Main Title, no Empire Strikes Back: it is its own.
I'm very tempted to post a snippet as a wave at my site, but I think you'll be
hearing it soon enough.

when replying, listen to the coda nah spamcake.
