In which case the film music came first

Korngold Violin Concerto
Herrmann did Mrs Muir or Wuthering Heights come first?
Williams Elegy (from Seven years in Tibet)
Glass Tirol Concerto (the Truman show)
Goldenthal Symphony (from Final Fantasy)
Corigliano Red Violin Concerto (movements 2 and 3 depart from film score)
Nyman did Carrington come before it became String Quartet 3?
Zimmer Aurora

Themes from an uncompleted symphony by Nino Rota that Visconti insisted were perfect for The Leopard (1962). Rota later actually completed the work in the 1970s.

Does Nyman's The Piano Concerto count? It uses themes from the score, but it's otherwise an original, spectacular work.

Prokofiev and Vaughn-Williams come to mind. Kamen’s Symphonies re-used themes from film scores. Especially in the third movement of his saxophone symphony (which is awesome) where the melody for The Winter Guest takes the main stage.

Donal Rubinstein put out a CD of the demos he composed for DAWN OF THE DEAD, and concert works he did based on those.

Roberto Gerhard incorporated portions of his film score This Sporting Life into his later "Epithalamion" ... as did Toru Takemitsu, whose "The Dorian Horizon" utilizes passages from his earlier film score Woman in the Dunes

Williams also wrote Escapades, which uses music from Catch Me If You Can.

And while as most know, most of the music wasn't actually used in the film, Villa-Lobos's score from Green Mansions was reworked into the concert piece Forest of the Amazon.

And another case of unused score -- of all composers, Stravinsky was going to wrote a score (I want to say for Song of Bernadette), and a bit of music for that became Scherzo a La Russe.

Of course Korngold did this in other concert and chamber works besides the violin concerto...

Lalo Schifrin's beautiful Concerto for Guitar and Orchestra does tend to include a theme or two from The Four Musketeers of his.

Corigliano's Symphony #1 features Revolution's "War Lament" in its first movement.

Williams also wrote Escapades, which uses music from Catch Me If You Can.

I'd say that is a little bit different. It's basically the CATCH score slightly rearranged into a suite format -- not really a fully original concert piece. Same with the MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA concert suite. Not really the same as the Elegy/TIBET situation.

Nyman did Carrington come before it became String Quartet 3?

Nope - String Quartet #3 in 1990, Carrington 1995.

I played the Argo recording of Nyman's quartets 1-3 to very death when it came out in 1990.

Another Nyman work derived from his film music is Where the Bee Dances (saxophone concerto) from Prospero's Books.

It’s actually the Symphony in Three Movements that incorporated Stravinsky’s unused score for Song of Bernadette.

Huh. Looking on Wikipeida, Scerzo was apparently from The North Star....which of course ended up being scored by Copland.
