That was the first thing I did after play the ending the second time,
searching whether Smoking Car or Broaderbund would sell the soundtrack on
the web.  Much to the dismay, no, so I ordered from Sony Classics, the CD I
mentioned before.  It was played by Midori (violin) & Robert McDonald
(piano); excellent recording.  The ending (of TLE) was so good and touching
I kept play it again and again.  I felt embarassed afterward because it's
almost like I am torturing myself (well, let me keep this NG moderated, and
I am still mentally healthy).

I lost my booklet that comes with the CD.  But I do remember that Franck
used leitmotif, a technique mastered by Liszt, to reinforce the main theme.
So each preceding movement is vital to understand later movements.  The
first two basically set the two main themes of the whole suits, and you'll
see later two really build up to the climax.  There are lots of songs you'll
get tired of listening (e.g. Canon in D, which is so overly played), but I
am still loving that one.  This is really off-topic now.  Maybe we should
have a TLE club or something (is there one on the web?).
