Music Advisor

Music Advisor was the title held by the member of the Naboo Royal Advisory Council in charge of funding and supervision of arts and cultural events on Naboo.^[1] The associated bureaucracy was known as the Office of the Music Advisor.^[2]

History[]

Hela Brandes was the Music Advisor around the time of the Invasion of Naboo.^[1]

In 1 ABY,^[3] the Deftoi of Muntro VI, in the Outer Rim Territories, staged an edition of their decennial Otherworld Arts Festival. The festival included a quasi-operatic performance depicting the events of the Time of Suffering of Naboo. For this purpose, the Deftoi requested the Office of the Music Advisor of Naboo to provide carcasses of Naboo animals for the show.^[2]

Notes and references[]

↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 Brandes, Hela in the Databank (original site is defunct)
↑ ^2.0 ^2.1 Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided — Terminal Mission: "Arts Festival Requires Naboo Animals" on Naboo
↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
