This is an amazing album. Feel like watching the play now. Wonder and 
Final Battle tracks are amazing. Rahman has pulled it off big time 
once again.

I feel we need more discussions here about this interesting soundtrack!!
Gopal, you said you got your copy what are your first impressions?

Wonder and Final Battle tracks are stunning!!

But Rahman comes on his own in the bonus track, think its because 
christopher Nightingale is not associated with it!!

Divinity Theme is pure BLISS!!

I think ARR has jointly scored most of the tracks in the album (not 
just four)

Vij can you confirm, cos even the album gives credit to both the 
artists for the entire score

Looking forward to the BGMs/songs of Jodhaa Akbar

He has definitely scored Mary's Beheading, shekar Kapur had 
confirmed this in his blog long ago. Infact Mary's beheading was shot 
simultaneously with recorded music. Film crew were in tears when the 
scene came to an end as the music blended so well with the scene!

There is one more write up on the score by Shekar which is 
interesting. Would like to know your thoughts on this. Read further

Temp Score and Real score
I am going through the last minute pains of Golden Age. As we edit 
the film we add what we call temp score to the edit - to impress 
people as the see the film in various stages of the edit. This this 
score is stolen from all over the place. Other movies mainly, but 
also from classical recordings etc. Problem is that you got so used 
to the temp score that it is difficult to imagine any other score to 
fit the film...

..but of course it will not. For the temp score is chosen for it's 
particularness to each shot. It has no harmonious integrity of it's 
own. When the composer comes on, he will score the film so that the 
whole score has integrity and some kind of unison. As he should for 
the theme to evolve. But it will never ever be as precise as the temp 
score !!

So I trying to get over my addiction to the temp score right now. My 
fear that actually the film that tested so well in the US had better 
music. Which is of course is not true, but another bit of 
obsessiveness on my part.

Rahman has passed this phase ages ago. We do not need non arr in this 
group!!! Restrict either to arr or semi arr.

It ranks up there in the league of elite soundtracks. Very 
soothing
  and melodious soundtrack with lots of classical influences and
  beautiful arrangements and instrumental ornaments. No heavy beats 
or
  real item numbers. The arrangements are not very thickly layered, 
but
  they are crafted extremely delicately and woven briliantly. I 
think
  ARR himself would like this soundtrack a lot. Only weakness to me 
is
  that a few songs are very similar to songs from SLBs previous 
movies.
  Lyrics are also quite simple by comparison. To me, however, it's
  mostly a very refreshing and quite stylish and very 
soothing/romantic
  soundtrack. If you're a lover of real quality music, this album 
is a
  must have.

 Sorry, that's not ARR. It's a temp track as Shekhar Kapur points 
out in his blog. 
 Go to www.soundtrack.net and check trailers. You'll find that it is 
the track My Name Is Lincoln from the movie The Island (2005) by 
Steve Jablonsky. In any case the music is too anachronistic for it to 
be an original piece for Golden Age. Here's a sample of the cue My 
Name Is Lincoln-

[arr] Golden Age background score completed

Transcript from Shekhar Kapur Blog

Shekhar, its majestic. Can't wait for another 6 months. Cate is 
brilliant, surely another academy nomination to say the least. Great to 
see Clive Owen. BTW is that A R Rahman who has given the background 
score for the trailer?

Posted by Brijesh on April 22, 2007 

The music is what we call a 'temp' score. We have just finished 
recording the score, so hopefully the next trailer will have it. Thanx 
everybody, shekhar
