Shore, Howard - Anthology: The Paris Concerts (2LP Vinyl)

Shore, Howard - Anthology: The Paris Concerts (2LP Vinyl)

The dawn of the 21st century brought a seismic change for the composer Howard Shore when New Zealander Peter Jackson invited him to write the music for 'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy, followed a decade later by 'The Hobbit'. The blockbuster films introduced the wonders of Shore's writing - here applied to storytelling on an epic scale - to audiences worldwide. 'I honestly believe I managed to connect with Tolkien's work and his love of nature, which I also share', says Shore. 'I wrote that music with my heart'.
