The Music of the Lord of the Rings Films takes the reader on an unprecedented journey into the heart of this historymaking opus with extensive music examples, original manuscript scores, a rarities CD, and fascinating glimpses into the creative process from the composer himself. Also included are a foreword by Howard Shore, an introduction by Fran Walsh, and sketches by John Howe and Alan Lee.
