We’re pleased to announce the release of Howard Shore’s The Lord of the Rings Symphony: Six Movements for Orchestra & Chorus. The album was recorded live in concert in Lucerne Switzerland this past February in partnership with Bavarian Radio who will broadcast the world premiere of the concert in its entirety on September 4, 2011. The Lord of the Rings Symphony: Six Movements for Orchestra & Chorus was performed by the 21st Century Symphony Orchestra & Chorus and soloist Kaitlyn Lusk under the direction of Ludwig Wicki.

The score for The Lord of the Rings film trilogy has been hailed as some of the greatest film music ever written. Sweeping in scope, it is a musical interpretation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth—an operatic tapestry of cultures, histories, languages, and people.
The Lord of the Rings Symphony – a six-movement piece spanning Howard Shores three film scores was created from the nearly 12 hours of music composed by Shore for the film trilogy. The six movements reflect each of the six books of The Lord of the Rings.

“Maestro Ludwig Wicki personally selected the musicians who comprise The 21st Century Symphony Orchestra and who perform on this recording,” said Shore. “Over the past four years he has perfected this music in Lucerne, Switzerland. His precision and supreme musicianship is evident throughout the recording. I congratulate him on his success and thank him for his masterful approach in bringing this score to life.”

Thank you very much for the re-up tri2061990!

AHHHH! This is amazing. Something I never thought I would hear. Many thanks to the uploader.

Ironically, the "Symphony" (actually, just a cut+paste of parts from the movie score) is more disjointed that the actual soundtracks. Go for those!

What do you expect ? Of course it is more disjointed, but it's still good, I don't have time for 10 hour listening every day.

Then they shouldn't have called it a "symphony", but a suite.

thanks x 1000
