There’s been plenty of albums released for Glee that include the hit songs they sing on the show, but sometimes I find the A Capella music that scores the show stuck in my head. This music is done by James S. Levine and none of it, except the "GLEE END TITLE THEME" is actually out there in decent quality (and properly titled) So I decided to bring everyone "Glee: The Score" It’s a big work in progress, but I can tell you there will be at least 2 Volumes, and that Volume 1 will include not only a majority of Original Cues by James S. Levine, but also the songs the show used by The Swingle Singers, and more! Not sure how many people would be interested in this, but here’s the cover art:

Glee: The Score, Volume One
is Coming Soon, and will be available ONLY via PM when it is finished.
Feedback appriciated!
Good! because this "Volume" will consist entirely of Season 1 material 😀
Good luck with your project!
Good luck with your project!
Yes, this is precisely how Glee is scored with human voices. Only occasionally do insturments come in backing up the A Capella. Here is an example of one of the only cues available: Glee Ending Credits Theme – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWEeePBXUFc)
The entire score is pretty much like this (With the exception of some Drum Cadences the producers made for the show) 😀 I find it quite catchy.
Now I do have an update. I’ve been working on it for the past hour and i’m already getting VERY good results. In fact, I have FIVE clean cues so far with MANY more to come. So I hope to satisfy you guys! And also, all of the cues will be named as James S. Levine named them. Thanks to the BMI website I know all the cue titles so I can name them properly. So far i’ve gotten:
"GLEE OPENING THEME" ("Here’s What You Missed On Glee")
"POLISHING GRAPES"
"RECRUITS"
"DRUM CADENCE NO. 1" (Which I named myself since it was not created by James S. Levine)
"GLEE END TITLE THEME"
So for only an hour it seems to be going good 😀 And there are NO SFX in any of these 🙂
Well I hope I can release something satisfactory! Just for an update so you guys know progress is being made. Here are the cues i’ve gotten so far, with MANY more to come:
"GLEE OPENING THEME"
"DRUM CADENCE NO. 1"
"TIME FOR SOME GIRL TALK"
"RECRUITS"
"PAMPHLETS"
"PRINCIPLE CLEANS UP"
"NIGHTTIME JANITOR"
"POLISHING GRAPES"
"HYSTERICAL PREGNANCY"
"IT’S A BOY"
"HENRI ACCIDENT"
"THUMB CAKE"
"COOKIES"
"DRUM CADENCE NO. 2"
"GLEE END TITLE THEME"
I know it’s not alot but these cues probably make up half a page out of four pages of cues total I plan to get. 😀 So we should be good when i’m done 😛
Lucky for you, I’m one of the more experienced DVD rippers 🙂 Some of the cues I’ve actually spent 30 minutes working with, noise reduction and then Equalizing and mastering and such. I can tell you as a personal victim of absolutely awful DVDrips I know what people hate so I’ll make sure to make this worth it in quality 🙂 and all the cues have a nice fade 🙂

So as you can see i’ve been hard at work 😛
All of these have either NO SFX (Most of them) or VERY Barely audible FX (Only like 2-3 of them) Now of course, i’m still not finished yet! XD Just thought you guys would like a bit of an update! 🙂 Im still missing a couple of notable theme’s that i’m working on retrieving "CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET (SECRETS THEME)", "SUE SYLVESTER EXPRESS", "CHASTITY", "FLASHBACK STING" and one more that i don’t know the title of yet, but we’re getting there! 😀 Now, some of the above list of cues are in fact repeats (Most of the repeats are the "GLEE END TITLE THEME") but i went ahead and worked with them anyways to get the best version of that repeated piece, so the repeats will probably be illiminated for the release, but yeah. Hope this looks good! I’m excited at how many SFX FREE cues i’ve gotten! 🙂 Ill keep ya’ll updated!

I still haven’t placed this yet:
WOHN NEWS THEME
but that’s basically it. (The last 4 tracks on the list are names I gave them because the cue list i have ends with the episode "SECTIONALS")
Now, if you guys do want me to do an Additional Tracks Disc that have the missing cues WITH SFX in them you’ll end up getting these and more (in chronological order and also with a description of why i didn’t include it with the above cues):
Episode: "SHOWMANCE":
HOUSE HUNT (The ending has too much SFX in it, however this theme is present in "IT’S A BOY")
SUN NOOK (Same as above)
PRINCESS ROOM (Too much SFX throughout, it is an interesting unincluded alternate to "GLEE END TITLE THEME")
CHASTITY (Well, there MAY be too much sfx during this cue but also my dvd glitches in the exact spot where it occurs in full in "Showmance", so I can’t even try and get it, may try and get another copy at a later date)
BALLOON POP (Again, the disc glitches during this cue so i’m not sure what it even sounds like, BUT I recall it being similar to "GLEE END TITLE THEME")
Episode: "ACAFELLAS":
This is probably this second biggest gap of missing material
NOTHING SEXIER THAN CONFIDENCE (The disc glitches, can’t get to it)
LOVE LIFE (Too much sfx, and also distinct echo from Will’s Voiceover)
MERCEDES HALLWAY (Way too much sfx, students chattering throughout, subtle, but not clean enough for the release)
PRISON FOOD (A little too much sfx, but nothing notable missing it’s similar to "PAMPHLETS")
MERCEDES SIDEWALK (Another notable loss, all the Mercedes cues in this episode are lovely little pieces I wish i could’ve gotten clean. These particular one is edited into the ending of "OPENING ACT" and has lots of environment noise throughout)
TANAKA AND PUCK (Too much echo from voices)
ACAFELLAS ACOUSTIC (Not actually even sure which cue this is referring to there’s an acoustic guitar track that has Puck singing with it so that makes me skeptical it could be that one and there’s a piano song, both of the two around that point are both too SFX heavy for a clean release)
MERCEDES CAR WASH (Disc glitches and would probably be too SFX heavy anyways)
GROBAN SORRY, DOODLE AND GROBAN (Both near the end of the episode, haven’t attempt to rip AFTER the glitch, these may be fine for the release)
Episode: "PREGGERS"
KEEP BREATHING (Too sfx, an alternate version of "IT’S A BOY", nothing notable missing)
103 OPEN (Too much school chatter to be clean, and when I did try to clean it up it didn’t sound to great, once again an alternate of "IT’S A BOY" but a more notable difference, completely different soprano part)
GOING WELL, HOT TUB, PRESIDENT, DANCE REHEARSAL PART II, AND TERRI AND QUINN I thought I had ripped and they had too much SFX, but i’m not finding the file atm, some of them may be fixable.
I won’t keep going with this because I think you get the picture, but there quite a few notable cues that may be missed, so if guys would like the sfx versions of these cues give me some feedback, and in the meantime i’ll get to work getting the clean ones finished up and ready for release, here’s the full list of additional cues: (that are listed in the PARTIAL season cue listing I have)
HOUSE HUNT

Au revoir,

Au revoir,

The Additional Tracks Disc? If so, then that’s 1 vote!
Season 2 will be "Volume 2" and if you can give me the episode and a scene it’s used i’ll see what I can do. I’m actually working on doing a cover version of the piano songs because they’re usually very sfx heavy.

Darn, how’d that get there…
Oops darn I keep randomly dropping stuff today….
Here’s the best version of THIS cue that exisits:
GLEE – (SCORE 2) – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXIUN66_4UQ&feature=related)
…and here’s my version of the same cue (Presented in 96 kps as a preview, the actual track is in glorious 320 kbps):
zSHARE – Clandestine Meeting.mp3 (http://www.zshare.net/audio/9901493596f8a6f1/)
So give me some feedback guys, does it sound alright?
EDIT: Oh darn I seemed to have dropped another preview here, crap:
zSHARE – Trying To Be Intimate.mp3 (http://www.zshare.net/audio/9901496135d28138/)
Exceptional is good right? XD and yeah I’m currently away from all my files. I’m responding to this with my phone 😛 and I’m also debating with myself on how to release this particular score because the tracklist there in the picture in my previous post was going to work but idk i can imagine some people complaining about, then again I suppose the only to avoid some sort of complaint is to have EVERYTHING XD
EDIT: I also never seemed to get a lot of feedback with The Additional Tracks disc so I’m assuming that’s a No?
Okay guys, so I did mention a couple of significant themes i’m missing, well I’ve done all the easy work with the cues i have gotten clean, so i decided to do some hard work now and find every occurance of those themes and try and piece them together to give us the clean versions, it will put off the release a little bit, but i know everyone will be so much more happy with the content! And i’m also considering dumbing it down to only the longest versions of each track, because a majority of these cues are just edited version of longer songs James S. Levine did, so we’ll see, but it’s not dead! Just so everyone knows!
EDIT: Also, the cue "House Hunt" is now clean
😀 And also as of now the tracklist is still basically the same, with a few exceptions, and im still debating on wether i should include all the edited cues or try and string together the longest possible version of a cue i can, because really the cues for the show are suites of all the different cues you hear in the show for example "Chastity" is the full-length composition, that gets edited into smaller cues to be used in different parts of the show, so if i can make those full length cues then i will.

Now, I know 32-40 gets kind of broad, but they aren’t properly titled yet. Now, this is at the very basic what will be on the Additional Tracks Disc, which will have SFX in it, don’t count on the titles or content staying the same, some of these cues (depending on the amount of SFX) may get illiminated and some might be added, as i havent taken into account the piano pieces and additional drum cadences. Now, I know for sure i will NOT be producing a complete score, but it’ll be the Best of the Score 😀
Also, i’ve begun spotting Season 2 and already have about 6-7 Completely clean cues including a new reprise of "Glee Opening Theme" which actually doesn’t sound synthisized but rather almost like the cast recorded it! 😀 So im looking forward to it!
1.) Glee Opening Theme (Reprise)
2.) Salsation (By David Shire)
3.) Audition
4.) Sam’s In
5.) Quinn Back On The Cheerios
And I shall give no more until i’m at least 3/4 of the way done with the Season 2 release! I’ve only gotten a couple bits of feedback, but from those, im going to attempt to make this one more like an Album, and try to avoid repeated songs unless there’s some sort of notable difference in them, So we’ll see how it goes. Stay Tuned!
Thanks again for vol. 1, great stuff!

Should PMs would be allowed now? 😀
On the release pictured here in this thread (that was sent out to a couple of people), quite a few of the tracks ended up being edits of the longer tracks ("Recruits" was edited down into smaller bits, as was "Glee End Title Theme", and some others) So what i’ve decided to do is make it more friendly for presentation, basing it a lot on the recent release of "Smallville" so basically i’ll be combining a couple of Seasons so we avoid repeated cues (aka smaller edits of the full cue) and we don’t have a lack of material. So i’ve been working with a few new sources and working harder than i’ve ever worked before to bring you guys the new version of the score, I can’t say for sure what will be on it, but I’m going to try and shoot for at LEAST 10 cues from each season, so 10 is the minimum. So far, for season 1 we’ve got:
1. Glee Opening Title Theme (Full Version)
2. Drum Cadence No. 1
3. Recruits
4. "It’s A Boy"
5. Glee Title Card
6. Sue’s Corner (New Addition!)
7. WOHN News
8. Can You Keep A Secret (New Addition!)
9. Teacher Theme
10. Hudsons and Hummels
11. What We’re Up Against
12. Trying To Be Intimate
13. Clandestine Meeting
14. Glee End Title Theme
These are for sure going to be on the next version (Plus, the Swingle Singers Pieces and "Looking Back" by Kerry Muzzey), i’m working on getting a few other themes as well, "The Sue Sylvester Express", "Waiting For The Results", and (it’s going to an absolute pain to put together, but i was able to piece together "Can You Keep A Secret?" from like 5 different sources so we’ll see) "Chastity". If I happen to get anything else along the way, i’ll be sure to include them as well. Now, Entirely new for Season 2 we’re going to have:
1. Glee Opening Title Theme (Reprise) [This one is performed by actual singers as opposed to the synth ones]
2. Auditions
3. Breadstix Theme
4. Finale
+5 or 6 Untitled (for now) cues.
I’m hoping to have more info on Season 2 and 3 soon.
I apologize for not getting back to those who PM’d me, but i’ve been busy! I hope to have this ready soon you guys!
That reaaaaaly doesn’t describe anything, if you give me a more specific example like exactly where in an episode it is used. Like, Season 1, Episode 13 at this certain scene, then I can help you. I just need some more specificity
The problem with describing it is I can’t find it among all the episodes I have access to or any clips on youtube. If I could find an example or pinpoint a scene, I could rip it myself. Googling different combinations of Glee sound effect or Glee score, Glee flashback sound etc. for 45 minutes led me here.
The sound is acapella, really fast — only like 2 seconds long, and I think it’s used for quick flashbacks, like when Sue jumps in and stops something, and Mr. Shoe says she can’t do that, and she says, "Oh, I talked to X about it" *bahdah bahdah bahdah bahdah BAAHH* Shows Sue talking to contest judge or whoever.
In fact, if this rings a bell, and you know an episode/scene, letting me know would be fantastic.

So please, if anyone owns this, please send it my way.
Thank you so much! :*

I’ll forever be bitter that they never released a score-album.
