Free Music Review: Return of the King CD
Hit: 5 Stars
I loved the movie, Return of the King, especially the background music. I just had to have that music. It's hard to find a particular item at the local Border's, Best Buy, etc., but I know I can always depend on Amazon to come through with the product and at a very reasonable price. The Lord of the Rings was an amazing trilogy, and the music was equally amazing.. . especially for Return of the King. My sister introduced me to the trilogy, and I remember it as a wonderful time because we were engrossed in this movie, and ate popcorn and junk food, and it was a nice memory in my life. Listening to the soundtrack brings that memory back to me. . but the music in itself is truly beautiful. I bought 2 copies; one for her as a gift, and she was so pleased because she had been looking for a copy and couldn't find one.
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King Poster
The regular jewel-case version will contain one of seven collectors' cards.This final chapter of Peter Jackson's sprawling adaptation of Tolkien's "Ring" trilogy closes out one of the most accomplished cycles in cinema--and film music--history. As he's done for the saga's first two installments, composer Howard Shore has honed a mature, brooding orchestral masterpiece that's long on subtle shadings of mood and nuance, while eschewing the hollow bombast that's characterized all too many mainstream action and adventure films for three decades. If anything, he's pared this chapter of his music for Middle Earth even closer to the bone, the trilogy's familiar themes repeated with a sparing hand that only heightens their dramatic power. Like Herrmann before him, Shore has a preternatural understanding of orchestral timbres and their almost mystical connections with human emotions, and he's used it here to close out this remarkable trilogy with Wagnerian dramatic sweep, yet one with a distinctly modern, understated melodic sense that is Shore's alone. James Galway and Renee Fleming make key instrumental and vocal contributions, respectively, while Annie Lennox's soulful "Into the West" makes the expected, if unobtrusive, bow to the theatrical pop song conventions. --Jerry McCulley
