Princess Leia Plays Violin in Galactic 'Star Wars' Medley

May the forte be with you. Following the success of their Skyrim and Game of Thrones covers, a cappella singer Peter Hollens and violinist Lindsey Stirling collaborated one more time, exploring a galaxy far, far away.

"Lindsey and I decided to do this because we both have been a huge fan of the Star Wars series for a long time now, and we also wanted to make a very different spin, as our last two collaborations have been so serious with Skyrim and Game of Thrones, so we really wanted to have fun on this one," Hollens wrote to Mashable.

It took the dynamic duo about six months to complete the whole project. They filmed the scenes at locales near Hollens' Oregon home.

Some of the most memorable Star Wars turf appear in the video above: Darth Vader's command ship, the sand dunes of Yuma and the forest moon of Endor. And no Star Wars tribute would be complete without Princess Leia's hair buns, lightsabers and a Wookiee.

Fans of the music can download it on Loudr, where the top contributor by 12 p.m. PT on Aug. 16 will receive a Skyrim poster signed by the two artists.
