Composer Howard Shore brought J.R.R. Tolkien\u2019s literary imagination to vivid life with his Academy\u00ae- and Grammy\u00ae Award-winning score to Peter Jackson\u2019s film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Shore crafted a fully-developed musical epic that related the classic tale with moving and intricately related themes for each of Middle-earth\u2019s cultures and charted the One Ring\u2019s journey with an exhilarating flourish.<\/p>\n
Upon its 2001 arrival, Shore\u2019s score, composed for large symphony orchestra, adult and boys choruses and instrumental and vocal soloists, was proclaimed an instant classic. Now the massive composition makes an unprecedented move to the concert hall. On March 26 and 27, the Munich Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Ludwig Wicki, and the voices of the Universit\u00e4tschor M\u00fcnchen will present Shore\u2019s entire 3-hour score to The Fellowship of the Ring live to the projected film. <\/p>\n
“This is the first time that the complete score to The Fellowship of the Ring will be performed Live to Projection in Germany. I have long admired the Munich Symphony Orchestra and I am very happy that they will perform the piece with conductor Ludwig Wicki. My first score for The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, The Fellowship of the Ring, was the beginning of my journey into the world of Tolkien and I will always hold a special fondness for the music and the experience.”<\/em> The music of The Lord of the Rings is counted among film music\u2019s most complex and comprehensive works. Howard Shore\u2019s score interconnects dozens of recurring themes to create a world as rich and thoroughly realized as the story that inspired it. This unique performance sets the score to the film, but allows the music to bear the narrative weight, creating a wholly new and dramatic live concert experience. Composer Howard Shore brought J.R.R.
