This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket fair use categories listed at Wikipedia:Fair use#Images or Wikipedia:Fair use#Audio_clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "The Imperial March":

  • To illustrate the object in question
  • Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
  • On the English-language Wikipedia ([1]), hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation ([2]),

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed fair use rationale.

An excerpt of the famous Imperial March melody by John Williams. The melody and its accompanying rhythms, harmonies, counterpoints, etc. are copyrighted, but I believe that a short single-line melody excerpt such as this qualifies as fair use.

I entered these notes in the Finale 2004 notation software, printed as PDF, then spruced it up in Photoshop and saved it as PNG.

Lastly, my choice of D major (rather than C, or even B-flat or E-flat) is purely arbitrary.
