Peter Jackson is already celebrating the 25th anniversary of his global film success. Howard Shore composed much of the music for the film trilogies *The Lord of the Rings* and *The Hobbit*, winning several Oscars, Grammys and Golden Globes for his work. His themes strike a deep chord when the Ring unleashes its power and corrupts the bearer of all power: a parable with great relevance to the present day. Accompanied by violins, trumpets and timpani, the ensemble, soloists and choir transport the audience to the Shire and across the landscape from Rohan to Mount Doom.
Using state-of-the-art technology, the Cinema Festival Symphonics take Middle-earth fans and fantasy enthusiasts on a musical journey through all the “The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit” films.
