I checked the LDS website and they have a page devoted to composers who are LDS members and LDS shorts they have scored (including scores not credited), but this wasn't listed, so I'm guess it's tracked.
That's the thing about these LDS shorts -- you can click on random ones and find good music. Some label that works with BYU, should be put a set of original scoring. Just saying...
John Romer is a fascinating and entertaining Egyptologist, archaeologist, writer, broadcaster and artist. He had several brilliant TV series in the UK in the '80s and '90s, such as 'Romer's Egypt', 'Testament', 'Ancient Lives' etc.. He's an expert, not a sensationalist. Anyhow, look at this episode from one series: you'll hear at 27:50 Miklos Rozsa's Decca NPO Prelude from Ben-Hur, which he allows full foreground rip (even mentioning the film), and 'Rowing of the Galley Slaves' turns up at 4:08. But the rest of the music is brilliant, all of it. I'm not sure if Channel 4 used stock music for all of it, or if the series composer (?) is the genius, but there are so many excellent cues:

Today, this would be wail and drone emptiness.
Approx 9:40 sounds like Close Encounters. Earlier in the video the music sounds like Goldsmith in POTA's mode. Maybe the music was tracked from these sources.
