I was just about to ask the same - I thought the original sountrack already had all the music used in the film? Well, apparently not. EDIT: Come to think of it - maybe bonus tracks simply means some alternate takes, film versions of cues or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two pieces of unreleased music can be heard in the film. In the final film, an Insert was, well, inserted into "The Last Battle" as it transitions from the past to the present; the OST version is the original version of the cue without the Insert. There's actually a video on youtube somewhere showing Spielberg asking Williams to write the Insert in Symphony Hall. Also, the track "High School Teacher" on the OST was always just the first 2 and half-ish minutes of the cue followed by 7 minutes of music repeated from "Omaha Beach" before returning to the end of the High School Teacher cue. When when it returns to the end, it skipped past a short section (bars 45-47) of the cue. You can hear this unreleased section in the film in its proper place.

filmmusic 1,829 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 It would be nice if they included that Edith Piaf song (was there other source music too?), but I'm almost sure Williams wouldn't allow it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick1Ø66 4,714 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I'll check it out, but I don't think I'm very keen. You see I've already got one. Jurassic Shark and Wojo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post crumbs 14,316 Posted August 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2018 Well that's... unexpected! I actually* wrote off this score as being up LLL's alley considering how little music was unreleased; they could just as easily reissue the OST. Nice to have a finalised, complete treatment nonetheless though, even if this wasn't really on anyone's shopping list. Who knows, maybe there's more alternates we don't know about??

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Okay, I'm not particularly keen on this release. It's probably part of the 10% that don't really need an expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh500 1,615 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I don't know anything about the few seconds of missing music, but just to have Hymn to the Fallen, Revisiting Normandy, Omaha Beach, and the Last Battle in better sound quality is worth the price of admission (not that the original sound quality was bad)!

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I'm quite underwhelmed, but I mean, I don't think LLL could choose between Amistad, The Patriot and Saving Private Ryan and decided to do the latter. They do what they're able to do and that's fine. Jay and bollemanneke 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
