    Is this where the brief Badelt reign begins? A more refined orchestral approach, polished? Often quite classical in sound? Perhaps with some JP involved in it? Obviously HZ had done fully orchestral ‘classical’ scores in the past (House of the Spirits etc) but this is much more refined and particular in its orchestrations.

      What Klaus did on this one by the way?

      Arranging. Of the Melanesian theme into the score, among other things. 1m06, 15m45-46, 17m55 are his…

      All these i missed on the original album release. When i watched the movie in cinema, these were the tracks i fell in love with.

      Oh, okay

      I remember seeing his name on one of those Melanesian chants…

      And I take it – John Powell did only JP concepto for Beam and Beam itself, and probably all those arrangements of Beam theme…?

      And a bit confused seeing Big Chord (3:05) – I thought is just a Album mix of wild drums & wild takos + BC ALT, isn’t it? I never thought it was really a “written” track… What is it by the way, album mix is missing about a minute…

      rockhound, well good for you – the whole CD4 is like that…

      I dig this one, but I was a bit disappointed we never got Attack on the Bivouac alternates II, IV and film mix

      Stephane, could you open a secret, what are those ALT’s?
