Music Box Records has announced a new soundtrack album for the 2003 drama Cold Mountain directed by Anthony Minghella and starring Jude Law, Nicole Kidman, Renée Zellweger, Brendan Gleeson, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Natalie Portman, Eileen Atkins, Jack White, Giovanni Ribisi, Donald Sutherland and Ray Winstone. The 2-CD set features the expanded and remastered score from the Miramax production composed by Gabriel Yared (The English Patient, The Talented Mr. Ripley, 1408, Judy, The Life Ahead, Betty Blue, City of Angels) who received an Academy Award nomination for his music. The first disc includes the composer’s score in chronological order and the second disc features the original Academy Awards promo album, including variations, unused tracks and alternates. The album, which is limited to 1,000 copies, is now available to order on the label’s official website. Columbia Records has released the original 2003 album, which featured the songs from the movie, as well as four tracks from Yared’s score. Cold Mountain is now available on VOD, Blu-ray and DVD.
