This message of mine was motivated by a topic entitled “The Eiger Sanction” posted between 2000-2008 by some other members, but with some interesting comments on the score. This is actually not a bad score, but rearranging the prearranged cues on the recorded soundtrack may give a better listening experience of the whole work. This reordering process is also a sort of editing process that not only structures the order of cues, but can also repeat some cues to flesh out the work. This attempt has given me a good programming result, but such changes may however yield a work that might not still be called a film score or a movie soundtrack. Perhaps others might post their ideas on this issue of arranging the given, and may even want to share the sequencing of cues for other scores they did. My attempt with this work divides the cues into two groups. The first group is the more dramatic music with several possible repeats, and could perhaps even stop there as a whole suite. The second group is the more romantic music of a somewhat rhythmic and melodic kind, but is nice all the same, with a feeling of resolution to it for the score. The transition from cue to cue here seems to be okay, with either the short or long versions.
Group one: 01 06 04 04 11 11 12 12 03 10 08 13
Group two: 05 02 09 07

Interesting project, but I prefer to "consume" the listening experience that is handed to me by professional album producers and composers, and evaluate it thereafter. I have enough trouble finding available time for LISTENING, much less RE-ARRANGE them! 
Thor, just as a curiosity, is there a reason that you use "quotation marks" around "ordinary words" so frequently? I don't mean to poke fun, and you certainly aren't the only one who does it here, but it's a bizarre "trend" I notice "on" this board. Do the quotation marks "signify" some "in-jokes" that I am somehow missing? ;-)

The reason is of course that I'm using the word in an unusual, not literal, context. One does not normally CONSUME listening experiences, for example. But yes, you're probably right. I think I'm overusing it a bit (like I do parentheses! ).
Ah, now I see. I think I'm so accustomed to figurative language in everyday speech that it doesn't even occur to me that other people might need it emphasized. Quote as little or as often as you please - I just find it amusing.
