I understand what we got was about all there was to get. It's too bad, because there was more recorded and not used.

let us hope some miraculous find will change that, rather sooner than later..!
however, the compilation is good, even the sound is ok, if you take the things that made it sound mediocre into account.
there are some nice bits in the music that appear in later scores, like an asian-themed passage remniscent of the later Mulan.
a haunting, eerie score this is!

So is this score ONLY available in the big (annoying?) chunky suite, on the MEPHISTO WALTZ CD and as three separate tracks - about 8 minutes - on the Goldsmith at Fox Box?
How much is missing from the suite?
Maybe someone could reissue it, as separate tracks, with another score by Jerzy.

I found sheet music to the main theme of THE OTHER a few years back in L.A.
It had lyrics. I wonder if anyone ever recorded it?
I remember trying to sing it with an old buddy of mine playing it on the piano.
Got to find it in storage. The lyrics, I remember had something to do with "eyes", like looking in your eyes I see an other or something like that.
Anyone else lucky to find the sheet music?

Yes, I am fortunate that a friend, sent me a xerox of the sheet. But at the moment, it is at home and I am on the road, so I can't look at it to check the lyrics. I also have a homemade compilation someone else made for me with vocals of many Goldsmith songs. If, when I get back home, I discover there was a recording, I'll try and remember to post something on this thread about it, but at the moment, I just don't recall.
Oops! never mind about checking the lyric. I didn't see gsteven's post with the first lines the first time I scanned the thread.

I agree with others that this is an amazing Goldsmith score with a disappointing presentation. Having three cues separated out in the Goldsmith at Fox box was a tease considering if one wants to listen to any other music from the score one has to sit through that long suite, source music and all. If one of the scores on the original release had to be a suite I would've preferred it to be Mephisto Waltz as there aren't any particular cues I like to pick out from it...
With all the other old Fox scores that've been getting better sources discovered lately (Friedhofer's Rains of Ranchipur, Newman and Herrmann's The Egyptian, plus all of that Herrmann stuff Varese put out in their Herrmann at Fox box...) I wonder if there is a chance for this masterpiece to get another release.
If a better release of the original tracks isn't possible I guess I should move it up my wish list for complete Goldsmith re-recordings!

Otherwise, a lovely score.
