From what I've seen on Omni Music Publishing's Facebook, they will be releasing the score for "The Wizard of Oz" some time this year. Although it seems like it might be slightly different from what is usually released from Omni as this score is more of a transcription or recreation instead of a direct engraving of the original manuscripts. I guess MGM destroyed all of the full scores for their films and only left the reduced conductor's scores. According to a post from Tim on the Facebook page, he used the score for the 1987 RSC stage production, as well as the reduced conductor's score and the soundtrack album from the film to recreate this score. Regardless, I am definitely looking forward to this score being released.

A while ago, I posted an update saying that Omni Music Publishing will be releasing the score for The Wizard of Oz sometime this year. Although he hasn't released Oz yet, Tim recently announced that Elmer Bernstein's score for the 1984 sci-fi comedy "Ghostbusters" is available for purchase now. He also mentioned that Oz is very close to finished.

I have Silverado. It's nice to have but difficult to mach the printed score with the disc.
Curious what you mean by this.
I would guess that he means:
most osts present some of the cues (and not the complete score) in non chronological order, often mixed, edited together, etc.
So when you have the complete score in printed form, it would be difficult to match with the cd.
Unless there is a release of the complete score with all cues in chronological order.
This is a late reply but you are absolutely correct. Often the cue titles are different as well.
Perhaps they can add a page that explains what matches what.

Exciting news!
Tim says that Oz is already to be printed, so I think it should be released within the next couple of weeks.

The contents list published in the Omni website doesn't indicate that the album version of the 'Love Theme' is included in the book. Am I missing something, or did they really omit this piece? (I would be shocked if they did!).

They most likely just "combined" the film and album version. In the book for Back to the Future, in some cues that both have a film and album version, he uses the same cue, but simply writes where the cut off comes in for each version.
