This is a beautiful score and I think it even surpasses A Single Man. It's a cross between the styles of Glass and Desplat (in Tree of Life mood or ELAIC). This has some of the most moving film music I've heard in a long while. He's rapidly becoming a favorite of mine. Last year's Copernicus Star was equally mindblowing.

Are William Orbit's contributions unreleased?

"Madonna premiers a new version of her mega hit LIKE A VIRGIN reworked with Abel Korzeniowski’s EVGENI’S WALTZ from W.E..
In an unprecedented move, Madonna combines one of the most defining songs of her career with an emotional, classical piano piece composed for her film about the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.
The new version’s title is LIKE A VIRGIN WALTZ.
The concert in Tel Aviv on May 31 opens the 2012 MDNA world tour."

I'd like to hear a clean good quality version of this, hope it gets released.
It's atrocious. Godawful. Worst part of the concert.

It was nice to see W.E.'s music used in a different context. I saw Escape From Tomorrow yesterday, can wait't to see R&J. Korzeniowski really needs more projects, the guy is freaking great.

"W.E." remains my second favorite Abel Korzeniowski score (after "A Single Man"), and it looks like "Romeo And Juliet" isn't going to knock those 2 out of their secure perch at the top of my Korzeniowski favorites. But having heard all the music currently available for download, I've revised my initial reaction from when I just sampled about a minute of each cue. While not great, it's still worth having, and I don't expect that many will bring out the hammers to bash it.

Flash: On tonight's "Jeopardy!," we found out that writer Joseph Conrad ("The Heart of Darkness") was born Jozef Korzeniowski. I'm glad Abel kept his name -- would hate for it to be Abel Conrad!

Jon:
I figured that other members would have seen "Jeopardy!" and that, a day or 2 or 3 later, others would have added it to each of the 2 other threads focused on Korzeniowski. But I too have complained about unnecessary redundancy myself, so can understand your point. I assume you are on record decrying redundancy. Right?

Forgive the redundancy, but it's still my second favorite Abel Korzeniowski score, after "A Single Man."

Zaku: I did feel that his music for the latest "Romeo And Juliet" was very good, although he was hampered by some of the least effective acting I've ever seen in a film based on a Shakespeare play. I'm glad I bought the soundtrack CD, and while I don't feel that it's in the same class as his music for "A Single Man" and "W.E.," I still like it. And thanks for the link to the interview!!!
