Two editions of the soundtrack were released by Walt Disney Records on December 16, 2014: a single-disc traditional edition, and a two-disc digipak deluxe edition.[1] Walt Disney Records subsequently released an instrumental version of the soundtrack on January 15, 2015.[2]

Background

Stephen Sondheim had written a new song for the film, titled "She'll Be Back," written specifically for The Witch.[3] "It was beautiful and spectacular, but it was very clear, as good as the song was, that [the movie] was stronger without.", director Rob Marshall proclaimed.[4] "Rainbows," a song originally written for a film adaption of Into the Woods in the 1990s, was reportedly to be included, although Marshall denied such a claim.[4]

Paul Gemignani and Jonathan Tunick, who conducted and orchestrated (respectively) the original Broadway stage show, returned to conduct and orchestrate the music for the film at Angel Recording Studios in London, with the cast's vocals being recorded separately.[5]
