About the Music

The Lord of The Rings films feature some of the greatest scores ever composed. In this special concert tailored specifically for schools, your students will discover how Howard Shore’s Oscar®-winning music brought Tolkien’s vast and sprawling world to life and became an unforgettable element of Peter Jackson’s beloved films.

With musical demonstrations performed live by WASO and insightful commentary by the hosts of the popular Art of the Score podcast, this immersive excursion is perfect for both music and film students.
