Ah thank you! I was reading in the score analysis that there this is the refrain; is there availability of the hearing the full statement of the theme (without watching the movie)?

Actually not that I'm aware of, even in the total film score, the theme never really comes out in full form like other villain themes (Vadar, Home Alone, Lex Luthor, etc.) It's short and sweet, and that's it.

How about the statement in "The Scroll/To Pankot Palace" at 01:50?

Yeah, that's true. There are some nice, big statements of that motif there also. (I really love how it builds with the percussion at 2:57 of the OST) It kind of hinges off the Palace theme though during this cue, so to me, i don't really think of it as a statement of Mola Ram's theme.

my favorite statement of the theme is in the unreleased cue "The Evil Potion" it appears right before the slave children motif.

Among all the things I have done in my short and pitiful life, becoming an inside joke on JWFAN is the one I'm the least proud of.

John Williams sucks, he doesn't write with a quill pen, there is no emotion in pencil music ! Purcell is the man !

That is nice. I also just noticed there's a nice subtle statement during "Short Round Escapes" @ 0:41.

Irina's Theme from KotCS is also cool.

Human aggression is instinctual. Humans have not evolved any ritualised aggression-inhibiting mechanisms to ensure the survival of the species. For this reason man is considered a very dangerous animal.

Indeed. The concert version, that is.

The movie alone didn't allow it to sink its teeth in.

Is there any sort of record of the concert version available anywhere? It's different from the OST, right?

I vaguely remember seeing the 2009 concert ( hollywood bowl) when I was 12. It didn't sound different to me..?

It is very different, in terms of form. And superior. It's actually a brilliantly sultry and moody piece, along the lines of Goldsmith's Basic Instinct.
