Some Hollywood big shot has just bought the rights to the above. He thought it was a script to the next smash.

I'm not familiar with this title at all, and if we've discussed it before on this board, it must have passed me by (there are apparently many fans who have clamoured for this). From the title, I thought it perhaps was something religious-sounding, and hence of great interest to me, but from the two samples posted here, it isn't, really. More like Americana, especially with that harmonica. Could be interesting nonetheless. Jarre is very hit/miss to me, but I'm willing to give this a shot when more samples are made available.

Like you Thor, I'm not at all familiar with it and just have the brief main title on the Universal 4 CD long box.
This is a very beautiful, elegiac and also lush score by Jarre - for me one of his best from the 80s with a wonderful main theme which crops up again and again in many variations throughout the score. It is for the most part purely orchestral, with just a few electronics added for one or two dream sequences in the film.
A boot of the complete score (about 60 minutes) with rather poor sound quality has been floating around for many years which didn´t do justice to this very inspired music. So this will be a great CD release from the Universal vaults by Intrada.

My thanks to Intrada for giving us a wonderful PREMIERE release. They did it with Night Passage a few months ago ,also from Universal, and they did it again.
It's been good to see an increase in premieres this past year, many of them from Universal...
In addition to the two Universals you mentioned, Intrada also recently put out a wonderful melodic orchestral score by Carter Burwell (with some help from Shirley Walker), Fear:

Not Universal, but they also recently put out the very first film score by thematic orchestral master Frederic Talgorn, Edge of Sanity:

Early in the year they premiered an amazing thematic orchestral horror score by Christopher Young, The Piper:

But La-La Land has been no slouch this past year when it comes to Universal premieres, with Moment by Moment by Henry Mancini, Torn Curtain by Bernard Herrmann (the original film recording, paired with remastered expansion of the John Addison score) , The Sugarland Express by John Williams, and Death of a Gunfighter and Skullduggery by Oliver Nelson!
