Tapped to provide music for Peter Jackson's cinematic journey into the world of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, veteran composer Howard Shore uses a deft hand in bringing life to this tale of Elves, Dwarves, Hobbits and men. Working with a story based on the age-old battle between good and evil centering on a quest to destroy a mystical and malevolent gold ring, Shore's compositions and direction of The London Philharmonic Orchestra are steeped in an extensive use of dark and light shadings. Cuts like "The Shadow Of The Past" and The Treason Of Isengard" are pumped full of militaristic brass, heavy orchestration and a netherworld-flavored chorus straight from The Exorcist. On the flipside are the quaint "Concerning Hobbits" with its Uillean pipes and darting strings as well as "Many Meetings" which finds heavier orchestral arrangements banished in favor of more lighter, more uplifting string and woodwind sections.
Celtic enchantress Enya lends a medieval flavor to the proceedings with a pair of originals. The majestic strains of "The Council Of Elrond Featuring 'Aniron (Theme For Aragorn And Arwen)" finds her contributing the slightest bit of ethereal harmonizing while "May It Be" is a more fully realized lyric-packed song steeped in unbowed optimism.
