I agree that there weren't many recurring themes in the KQ games, the one big exception being Cassima's theme from King's Quest V running all throughout King's Quest VI. Still, I feel that that the music was a huge part of KQ and the Sierra feel in general, and Mark was heavily involved in creating that. Many of the most beloved Sierra themes are Seibert compositions, including "The Magic Meadow" from Quest for Glory I (as well as the main theme used in all the QfG games), "The Bandits" from KQV, "Girl in the Tower" from KQVI, and "Consumite Furore" from Phantasmagoria (and that's just naming a few).

It's already been mentioned how Mark worked well with other composers (e.g. Ken Allen with KQV, Jay Usher with KQVII, Kevin Manthei and Ben Houge with KQVIII). Maybe Mark and Jared can work together on this new score, or perhaps Mark can write some main themes that Jared can use to create the rest of the score... I just feel that Telltale may not be aware of his monumental contribution to Sierra, and as a fan of both companies I feel the need (almost a responsibility) to bring it to their attention. I just hope that Telltale is reading this and that more forum members can voice their support.
