Announces: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA - SAGA OF A STAR WORLD Composed and Conducted by Stu Phillips INTRADA Special Collection Volume 154 In 1978, composer Stu Phillips began a season-long association with one of the most ambitious science-fiction epics to hit the television screen - Battlestar Galactica Starting with a lengthy pilot episode, Saga of a Star World, Philips would go on to score nearly all of the episodes. Some 33 years later, Intrada is launching a series of albums presenting all the music Philips composed for the show. For this first volume, Intrada presents Phillips' entire magnum opus for the pilot. Performed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic, this massive score thunders vibrantly as cylons attack, humans flee on a seemingly futile journey, and every obstacle conceivable is thrown in their path. The score contains action, romance, pathos, and heroics...it's everything a good old-fashioned science fiction score should be. At the time of the show's airing, MCA records released a soundtrack which featured a rerecording of highlights from the score. And while a promo set from long ago features most of the pilot score in mono, this is the premiere release of the complete score in crisply detailed stereo from the original multi-track elements stored in the Universal vaults. Listeners will note a certain intensity in the playing here not found on the MCA recording, which provides a dynamic fresh sound to a familiar work. The CD includes the complete score, a full version of the Galactica theme (so popular it has performed in numerous concerts), and as an added bonus, the film version of the main title which features the theme specifically recorded for this edit and is unique only to the pilot. Future volumes will feature the scores Phillips wrote for the rest of the series. While some episodes were recorded in multi-track stereo, others are in mono and Intrada will present these episodes complete in whatever format they were recorded, providing a definitive listen to one on of sci-fi's most important TV entries. But for now, at long last, Stu Phillips' epic work for Saga of a Star World makes its lonely quest to a shining planet, known as earth! This release is limited to 3000 units. INTRADA Special Collection Vol. 154 Retail Price: $19.99 AVAILABLE NOW For track listing and sound samples, please visit http://store.intrada.com/s.nl/it.A/id.6865/.f |

So, the next logical question is, how many volumes, and when? (Not to sound impatient, but this will be amazing!) |

Thanks Intrada... Ordered. Said it over at FSM... was 13 when this started on TV... one of the very first soundtracks I actually purchased (do not laugh... had the cassette tape and the 8 track- ok, you can laugh now). Favorite track... The End of the Atlantia. The samples all sound breathtaking. Intrada is starting 2011 with a huge bang... So looking forward to the additional volumes. So, when are they coming out? haha. |

Ordered. I remember having a bunch of friends over to watch the first episode when it first aired. Then of course years later there was watching the late great Maynard Ferguson play the title music live in one of the sets he did at the Disneyland jazz festival. |

Would love to see this poster art for the cover of the next volume: I've always appreciated Intrada's devotion to original key art. |
