I came upon this info on the Home Theater Forum
The Ultimate Collector’s Edition Blu-ray will feature an exclusive, 50th anniversary soundtrack from Legacy Recordings/Sony Music, which includes eight international bonus tracks never-before released in the U.S. Legacy Recordings/Sony Music will also release, for the first time ever, a special 50th Anniversary soundtrack featuring the full film score.

I hope this CD gets released individually as I would love to have the complete score from this film.

Track listing is up on Amazon. Supposing this is accurate, it doesn't look like it will be as complete as was hoped for. (Times come from ITunes)
Prelude and The Sound Of Music [3:32]
Overture / Praeludium / Dixit Dominus / Morning Hymn / Alleluia [5:15{
Maria [3:16]
I Have Confidence [3:26]
Sixteen Going On Seventeen [4:54]
My Favorite Things / Salzburg Montage [4:10]
Do-Re-Mi [5:32]
The Sound Of Music [2:10]
The Lonely Goatherd [3:10]
Edelweiss [2:17]
Grand Waltz [2:10]
Laendler [2:26]
So Long, Farewell [2:54]
Processional Waltz [1:19]
Goodbye Maria / How Can Love/Survive Waltz [1:17]
Edelweiss Waltz [1:05]
Entr'acte [2:06]
Climb Ev'ry Mountain [2:38]
My Favorite Things (reprise) [1:13]
Something Good [3:32]
Processional and Maria (The Wedding) [2:27]
Sixteen Going On Seventeen (reprise) [3:05]
Do-Re-Mi (reprise) [0:59]
Edelweiss (reprise) [1:50]
So Long, Farewell (reprise) [1:50]
Nuns And Nazis / Escape / Climb Ev'ry Mountain (reprise) / Finale * [4:38]
End Titles [0:39]
It seems to resemble the laserdisc CD except it uses the album versions of I Have Confidence, Processional and Maria, and the Edelweiss reprise (Something Good seems to be missing a few seconds as well). CH-CD will at least be happy for the inclusion of the Act One Finale. I'm going to wait for reviews in case the reprises of My Favorite Things, Do-Re-Mi, and So Long, Farewell are taken directly off the film again.

Is there any issue of missing source material for this title - or is it merely the lack of cooperation between Fox and RCA that makes an ultimate edition of this soundtrack impossible? I think the 50TH Anniversary CD is more comprehensive than its predecessors, but it still is incomplete and some of the new material has been lifted from the movie's composite track (or m&e track).

The Laser Disc Box set had a CD included and this was the ' complete ' release . Now hard to find I would think. All other releases have been incomplete but they would like u to think otherwise .

Well hey, next year is the 55th anniversary so maybe..... lul
I'm not so sure of that. With Sony Music closing its doors (I just checked and they do own RCA), it might not be possible for a definitive Sound of Music release. More devastating is the fact that this also crushes any hopes for an expanded South Pacific.

Since when is Sony Music closing? Only thing I've heard is they've stopped external licensing.
Sorry, should have been more specific. Their ceasing external licensing was what I meant by closing its doors.

The 24k is a nice presentation (probably the best to this date), but it is not complete. That's why I wonder if some of the material is missing (like for "Oklahoma").

RCA being a Sony label rather than some licensing deal shouldn't be affected by this.
Even without Sony being in the picture, any label wanting to put out complete releases of The Sound of Music or South Pacific (or any of the R&H film adaptations for that matter) would still have to go through the Rodgers and Hammerstein Organization to get them out.

The fact that not a single note of "South Pacific" has appeared in any form beyond the album master (not on CD, not as an isolated track on home video) makes one think that we are not dealing with merely a copyright issue, but that the masters may have suffered the same fate as "Oklahoma". There seems to be plenty material of "State Fair" (some of which appeared on a cassette tape), but nobody has bothered to release it on CD.

Which State Fair are you referring to? I ask because when Twilight Time did the remake, Mike Matessino wrote that they couldn't find much for the isolated score. Here's his quote:
Same, Joe. The original material couldn't be found. I fixed a couple of things as best as could be done and we did have the orchestra-only track for the main title. A couple of extra pieces of source music were available in mono as well.

I suppose missing material could be the case with South Pacific, though Joe Caps has mentioned that everything for it is in the vaults labeled as pre-recordings so who knows.
