Title: If you're a fan of the show, you probably already own this.
Review: To start, I got this soundtrack simply because of "Shape of Things to Come" and "Pascagalia". Those two tracks alone are worth the price. What Bear McCreary does that is refreshing is he takes the standard TV music score and turns it from a simple music cue to feel sad or anxious or happy into an experience in itself--something to be enjoyed independently of the action on the screen. Particularly with the pieces from "Kobol's Last Gleaming", he creates orchestral pieces that more than stand on their own as simply enjoyable works. McCreary's music adds a richness to the show that hard to qualify; it's just...there being awesome. Not too bombastic, techno, or new agey, it's always just right.
