Animal Kingdom: Rivers of Light & Tree of Life is fantastic. Though I think it's only available for streaming and digital download.
Available now on cd.

Dr. Channing, just WHERE is the CD available?
I just checked The Disney Store and The Animal Kingdom Store. Twice.
No CD yet that I could find.
Amazon only has digital download.
No CD yet.
I could use (and most definitely appreciate) a little professional courtesy, doc.
Link, please; pretty please; and pretty please with sugar on top.
Dr. Ron Burbella
Doc,
I picked up mine at the Discovery Trading Company shop in Disney's Animal Kingdom.
Cheers

Google Disney World Personal Shopper -- there are a number of people who offer to buy Disney park merchandise and ship it to you, for a premium, of course. But I'm sure this cd will be offered through Disney's own website and app soon.

With rare exceptions (like the Disneyland "Legacy Collection" release), Disney tends to make the CD versions of the US park music exclusive to the stores in the parks. It isn't uncommon to find them eventually on the secondary market via Ebay, Amazon, or others, but the prices can be pretty inflated at times. In recent years, they have started making most of the albums available for digital download. If you are more concerned with the sound quality than having the physical media, they are frequently available through 7digital.com as 16-bit/44.1kHz FLAC files. I just checked and they do have the Rivers of Light/Tree of Life album there.
The music from the international parks does often show up through various importers or you can sometimes find them at the Amazon site for the appropriate country (obviously, you might need to use Google Translate or something similar, if you can't read the language). The CDs from the Tokyo parks tend to be widely available in stores throughout Japan, so they are usually the easiest ones to find. There does appear to be a Shanghai Disneyland music album available on iTunes here in the US, but I haven't had much luck finding an importer for the CD (I'm not even 100% sure one exists).
One other really great album that came out recently is "Mele from Aunty’s Beach House Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa", from Disney's resort in Hawaii. The album contains great arrangements of Disney songs in Hawaiian style. This was music that was done for the kid's club at the resort, but it is also used as area music in some other areas, most notably the elevators. When we stayed there last year, it became a fun game of "name that tune" for my family every time we rode the elevators. This is another one that is hard to find on CD other than at the resort, but it is again available as a digital download.

This thread got me thinking about my entire collection of Disney theme park music, which I've been collecting for many years. I figure why not list them all here. Note that I've only been to the US parks (and Aulani), so everything I have from the overseas parks was imported. I also have lived in Los Angeles for the last 21 years, so I have pretty much everything released at Disneyland in that time. I also haven't tracked down anything from Hong Kong or Shanghai so far (I may give in and buy the Shanghai album from iTunes, but I'm still holding out hope of tracking down the CD...)
Multiple Parks:
- Country Bear Jamboree
- Disneyland and Walt Disney World Musical Vacation (1997 Japanese import with show music from the domestic parks -- at the time it was the only available recording of Spectromagic).

Unfortunately, the best Disney theme park music remains unreleased. I am referring, of course, to Bruce Broughton's large body of brilliant work for the Disney parks, most written for defunct attractions. I had hoped at one time that Intrada would be able to figure out a way to release this fantastic music, but as the years have gone by I have to assume there is some serious impediment that is keeping it from happening.

Some of Broughton's music has been released, but there definitely is some good stuff that isn't available. The theme from "Honey, I Shrunk the Audience" (which Broughton largely adapted from his score to "Honey, I Blew Up the Kid") has been on several Disneyland and Walt Disney World official album releases. "Seasons of the Vine" was included on the Disney's California Adventure CD as well as a couple of the Disneyland official albums and the Disneyland Legacy Collection release. The last few Walt Disney World Official Albums have had Broughton's music from "Spaceship Earth" and "Ellen's Energy Adventure".
The Broughton theme park music that I'd most like to see released are his scores for "From Time to Time" at Disneyland Paris and the WDW adaptation of the show, "Timekeeper". I'd also really love a release of the full score to the "Golden Dreams" film that played at Disney's California Adventure for its first several years. A suite from that even played as part of the entrance loop outside the parks, but it never was included on a CD for some reason.
