I rented the first of 4 discs of TNT's 'Into The West' last weekend and knew that I couldn't wait for the second disc to arrive from Netflix and went out to purchase the dvd set. I'm loving it. But the one element from this massive mini-series that I am finding most memorable seems to be the wonderful score composed by Geoff Zanelli. Doing a background check on him I find he's done (always) 'additional music by' in end credits to numerous other films, this being I think his first solo film...and then went on to WIN the Emmy Award this past August for this score. Any chances of it's coming out on disc? Intrada?
For some reason (which to be very honest no one can really figure it out) the production company doesn't want a CD released of his scores to this mini-series.
No one will say WHY, but it's just a dead issue.
I know, I wanted to put it out and hit a brick wall (as did the composer).

It's off-beat in the Basil Poledouris "Lonesome Dove" mode (LD's director Simon Wincer directed an episode) but with far more native vocalizations imbedded in the tracks.
What it reminds me of (but in flavor than in melody) is Williams' themes for "Far and Away."
Just finished the miniseries, in fact.

When I'd read that LaLa Land is releasing the score to this massive tv miniseries, it was like a minor miracle for me. I loved the series and it's music,and noted it way back several years ago in this old thread. This thread was under my old screen name, but the feelings still remain the same. I'm eager to hear this music again, separate from the mini-series. It deserved to be released; magnificent score! Any timeline as to when it's due?
