I love that score very much but have been asking myself if there is a need for a release of the complete score since I have to admit that it is a bit repetitiv. Oh well, I would buy an expanded release anyway smile

Great score, I love the avantgarde-sections of it with all those voices dubbed in, and also that major-mode theme.
There is a suite of the score recorded by Williams, it is on the "Music of America" Sony 3 CD album, and I think originally on the Music for Stage and Screen album.

I desperately want an expansion of this one!

You know, I absolutely looooooove the main theme of this but for so many years it's bothered me that it reminds me of something else -- I just have NO idea what that something else could be. Anyone?

Do you refer to that melody in homecoming? Or that minor mode trumpet solo with the low cello/double-bass/timpani gestures in between?
Curiously, I feel exactly the same for the Homecoming melody, don't know which music it strongly reminds me of.

There's a segment that reminds me of "Nessun dorma" from Puccini's opera TURANDOT.

Yeah I mean the very lush string melody. Turandot....I guess it's possible though I can't say it's likely what is hitting me.

For me this was Williams most powerful adult and serious mood score back in its day, until it was dethroned by Williams own Schindler's List.
