Saw the movie last Saturday and gave my thoughts on the non-score side. Great film. Don't remember the score to any great degree. Are the songs on there at all? They were performed by Renee herself. Can't access the clips from the UK.

There is a separate album, CD and digital, with all the songs, performed by Zellweger.

This album is just Yared's score and is digital-only for now.

Renee Zellwiger's performance is excellent. However, when she began to sing her voice took me right out of the film. She's no Judy Garland. Zellwiger should have lip synched to Garland's vocals. Perhaps that was the original idea but rights problems got in the way.

Yes, there was a bit of being removed from the piece at the start of the film, and she doesn't sound quite like Garland, but thankfully she does have a good voice, so for me it didn't take long before I settled into it.

Thank you for this very insightful review. The score really supported the film, and I'm glad it's available. I saw the movie at the Odeon Leicester Square in London, just around the corner from where the actual concerts took place in 1969.

I have zero interest in the film, but the score is indeed lovely. Not quite 'top 10 of the year' material, but definitely a runner-up.
