No, there's never been an official release. The piece was orchestrated by David Bedford at the same time as the Orchestral Tubular Bells, but was never recorded as an album.
A performance in Glasgow with Steve Hillage on guitar (he played most of the orchestral Tubular Bells and Hergest Ridge concerts, Andy Summers did a few, Mike Oldfield did none), in 1975 was recorded by the BBC - this recording was subsequently bought by Virgin, who used some of it in their film 'The Space Movie'. That's as official a release as it's ever had, and it's pieces of this recording which have found their way into the bootleg copies which someone here will no doubt be able to help you get your hands on...
