Will ALL the music on the 2nd CD be original to the movie? Or is James Horner including some from the movie and creating a few new pieces in memory of Titanic?

No, sorry Em. Ha ha ha, just kidding, of course. =) I'll let you know if I hear anything.

I haven't heard a full playlist for the second CD, but I have read in numerous places (including the Sony Classical webpage) that one of the cuts will be an orchestral suite arranged by James Horner of music from the film, an overture, if you will.

Cheers!

That's basically what the last CD was! All the themes threaded in and out of each selection for the most part. Hmmm...I'm buying it anyway!:)
