And why would they re-record library cues? That's weird as hell.
I think it had to do with union rules. Shows that used tracked music were supposed to use only music recorded that particular TV season. So if you wanted to use a cue from an earlier season it had to be re-recorded. (Am I close?)
And as far as documentation of the music tracked into episodes which didn't have original scores, my guess would be that it simply wouldn't be worth the effort or the booklet space. (Jeff's "Music of Star Trek" book contains sample cue sheets from tracked episodes, so it appears that all of that music editing work was indeed documented at the time it was done.) It would be sort of like printing the "Superman" score tracks which were edited into "Superman II: The Donner Cut" in the "Superman" soundtrack booklet. Would that make a lot of sense?

Simply a dream come true.
I'm just a tad worried how they're going to pack it...
I hope, judging from the package art, that each disc is housed in a standard-sized jewel case. Dealing with scratches or other damage would be a big headache with this much content.
Probably 4 quad cases.
MV praised in an earlier thread the 5CD package layout of FSM's Ben Hur. It could be housed in three 5 CD count cases. Although the image of the housing box looks bigger than three cases. Guess we'll know soon.

Provided they ensure their supplier of said 5CD cases doesn't stock the cheap ones made from highly-recycled plastic, that could work well.

. . . I mean according to wiki (yes, it's not very reliable source) only 31 episode from 79 had original score and other music was tracked from other episodes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Trek:_The_Original_Series#Music). Is it true, or we need correct this page?
Thirty-one complete scores is actually about right, if one acknowledges that an additional four episodes which also had original underscoring were "partial" scores -- in other words, mostly tracked from other episodes with only a little original music newly recorded for them. In his "Music of Star Trek" book, however, Jeff notes that even episodes with "complete" scores often had a tracked cue or two in them as well. I've indicated which could be considered partial scores below:
Pilots
The Cage (Courage)
Where No Man Has Gone Before (Courage)
First Season
The Man Trap (Courage)
Charlie X (Steiner)
The Naked Time (Courage)
Mudd’s Women (Steiner)
The Enemy Within (Kaplan)
The Corbomite Maneuver (Steiner)
Balance Of Terror (Steiner)
What Are Little Girls Made Of? (Steiner)
The Conscience Of The King (Mullendore)
Shore Leave (Fried)
The City On The Edge Of Forever (Steiner) [partial]
Second Season
Catspaw (Fried)
Metamorphosis (Duning)
Friday’s Child (Fried)
Who Mourns For Adonais? (Steiner)
Amok Time (Fried)
The Doomsday Machine (Kaplan)
Mirror, Mirror (Steiner)
I, Mudd (Matlovsky)
The Trouble With Tribbles (Fielding)
By Any Other Name (Steiner)
Omega Glory (Steiner) [partial]
Return To Tomorrow (Duning) [partial]
Patterns Of Force (Duning) [partial]
Third Season
Spectre Of The Gun (Fielding)
Elaan Of Troyius (Steiner)
The Paradise Syndrome (Fried)
The Enterprise Incident (Courage)
And The Children Shall Lead (Duning)
Spock’s Brain (Steiner)
Is There In Truth No Beauty (Duning)
The Empath (Duning)
Plato’s Stepchildren (Courage)

Has anybody else not received their confirmation email yet? I haven't been following this thread too closely, so I apologize if it has already been discussed...

Well, supposedly previous season cues/themes were re-recorded, but sometimes I'm not so sure because, to my ears, the "rerecords" sound exactly like the originals (same tempi, nuance). By contrast, if you listen to the second and third season main titles they sound quite different (both using Courage's 1967 updated arrangement, featuring the trumpet playing the fanfare in augmentation to the horn call). I suppose you could get the same sound if you used the same musicians, but this was stuff that was read down in rapid succession, so I can't imagine much time was spent on "let's make this sound like the one we made ten months ago."

I feared it would be a big box set. I haven't been able to afford any of the box sets the companies have released, beyond the Superman blue box. So will have to forgo it I think - depending on cost but I estimate $250.00.
So we'll see how much it comes in at but bills and food on the table comes first.

), so how much music was composed?
