Oh I just remembered another great cue from Angel! In the season 1 episode Parting Gifts (I think it's this episode) there is a montage (with score) where Kate is studying Angels past. Great and powerful score! Not sure if it's Beck or Kral though. Really wish this was included in the soundtrack. You really need to rewatch, because Kate wasn't even in "Parting Gifts". The episode you mean is "Somnambulist" which guest starred Jeremy Renner of Marvel fame as a crazy vampire serial killer sired by Angel. I've just rewatched Buffy the movie for the first time in probably 20 years (my God, what a horrible movie!! lol!) to check out the score. I think there is like 19 minutes of score in total and to me, 90% of it all was quite crap. Nothing special. Like season 1 standards almost. Much of it was just really looooong notes and such. I dont think there will be too much of movie score in the box set. I cannot stress enough how little I care about the movie. lol We can be so lucky that it failed and that Gail Berman convinced Joss to make a series out of it. It was such a smart decision to make Buffy more of an underdog and give her friends that are also underdogs, the whole popular valley girl thing that he did in the movie made her kind of dumb, unrelatable and unlikeable, even though there was an arc for her to become less than the ditzy superficial cheerleader, but Joss did that arc much better with Cordelia (who was able to give her superficial ditz a lot of heart to boot, even when she was at her bitchiest). As for the music of the movie, I don't remember it, because it has been YEARS since I watched it, but you have to keep in mind that the movie is from 1992 and horror movie music was kind of different then. Same for season one Buffy - that was how horror film music was at the time. But of course now it seems horribly dated. So, here's kudos to Beck and the composers that came after who succeeded at giving Buffy a score that is rather timeless and still holds up.
