I've started enjoying the Next Generation scores only recently via the FSM and LLL box sets. Do I understand correctly that I would need to get the GNP vol 3 & 4 (+ expanded vol 1 and 2) if I wanted to get all the music from the series?

Yes, GNP's Vols. 3 & 4 will probably never been expanded or revisited at this point (same goes for the DS9 & Voyager pilot scores) since their expansion of Vol. 1 (Encounter at Farpoint) apparently did not fare as well sales-wise as the expansion of Vol. 2 (Best of Both Worlds) or the three movie scores they controlled.
So in addition to those four GNP discs (including two expanded ones), you will need:
GNP's The Best of Star Trek ("Heart of Glory" was released complete on the Ron Jones box set, but this features an exclusive orchestral suite for "The Inner Light"):

GNP's The Best of Star Trek Volume Two (for the suite from "All Good Things...", only a bit of which was revisited later):

The Ron Jones Project from FSM
LLL's two 3CD TNG volumes
LLL's 50th Anniversary 4CD set, which is almost *half* previously-unreleased TNG music:

LLL's The Final Frontier 4CD set, which features a full disc of only TNG music:

I think that's everything. Quite a bit, really... more hours of music than any other Trek series has had released, to date! And still there are unreleased series cues that some people are pining after!

Thanks for the info Yavar. OK sounds like I need a few more GNP's than I thought. I do have all the LLL. I've always been partial to the original series- starting to warm to these though!

Vol. 5 of the 1701 Collection focuses on the Trek TOS music of renowned composer George Duning, with the “Star Trek Theme” by Alexander Courage, and contains original music from the classic episodes METAMORPHOSIS, RETURN TO TOMORROW, PATTERNS OF FORCE, IS THERE IN TRUTH NO BEAUTY? and THE EMPATH, along with MAIN and END TITLES.
This means that Duning's AND THE CHILDREN SHALL LEAD will be pushed to the final volume along with THE TROUBLE WITH TRIBBLES by Fielding & Samuel Matlovsky's I, MUDD (plus a grab bag of assorted other items such as Wilbur Hatch's music for Abraham Lincoln from THE SAVAGE CURTAIN).

It’s a shame they didn’t release it in two disc sets originally instead of a super expensive $250 dollar box set. But I’m glad for a second chance to get most of the music. But it will always irk me the 1701 series is incomplete.
I hate to say this but you had a LONG time to get the big set when it was available. It sold out but not right away. If you wanted everything you wouldve gotten everything while it was available. Believe me I know how you feel but…this is what happens when folks wait on things.

At the same time, getting everything (except a couple of cues released later) all at once was exactly what I wanted. It was one of those purchases that was so important that I saved and even sold a bunch of CDs back to SAE just to help pay for it. I was lucky to be able to do it, as I was rarely in a position to make a lump purchase like that. But considering the importance of it to me and the significance the music held during my lifetime, I was gonna buy it no matter what. The box is THE Holy Grail in my music library.
I'm grateful that everyone who missed it has another opportunity to get the majority of the music on disc. I hope GNP at some point releases the scores being held back. They're important in the context of the series.

I scored the 15 CD set on ebay tonight for under $400, and I'm tickled pink as I missed it the first go. Patience is a virtue

Right. I also was in no position financially at the time to get it. But it was one of those things I did and damn the consequences because it was a no brainer of a holy grail. The set was available for at least a couple of years. So folks had plenty of time to grab it even if you saved 20 bucks a month for it.
But its got everything and everything was very much appreciated too!
