Plus, plans are in the works to release a two disc live recording of The Lord of The Rings Symphony, and a DVD which includes a documentary on the making of the symphony and a performance by the Montreal Symphony. Looks like music fans will have much to look forward to!

Also on August 1, Lawrence Makoare (the actor who played “Lurtz” – the chief Orc the first film and “Gothmog” and “The Witch King” in the third movie) will be at the Museum of Science from 7 – 9 a.m. Get an autograph on a FREE Lord of the Rings poster or get your photo taken with the big Orc!
