Lord of the Rings was 10/10 in everything. Absolute masterpiece.

[@Christian_Bagger]

A rare and perhaps the only 10/10 I sincerely believe that you couldn’t do a better adaptation. I don’t think no film or series beat the extended editions.

[@hx20games77]

@@Christian_Bagger agreed lets all pretend rings of power never existed

[@wingsuenip8298]

Can’t agree more. Never have I loved a trilogy this much.

[@saltywinchester1600]

Yeah, compared to Rings of Power, it was indeed a MASTERPIECE. They RESPECTED what Tolkien wrote. Amazon did NOT.

It's impossible for me to hear this masterpiece and not to cry.

[@annareifer2249]

Yes very first seconds and I start crying Q_Q

It's like clockwork, seriously LOL

[@mathewchristy2006]

Totally agree. Its emotional!

[@JamesLewis-mp9zn]

This is magic that touches the soul.

[@dorisdaumann5914]

​@@JamesLewis-mp9zn a masterpiece for eternity !!

[@rustyblade9366]

I'm still amazed to this day how Peter Jackson and crew managed to do it. They litteraly made a perfect trilogy. Not just a perfect interpretation of a book series, but quite litteraly a perfect trilogy all together. The love and passion for Tolkien's work shows through the screen im every piece of dialoge, score and performance.

[@535phobos]

We took it for granted, and every new movie coming out now hammers home how lucky we were to have this trilogy. Once in a lifetime

[@RuaIvan]

I would include Howard Shore's work as a key for all this success, all this perfection

[@JeanParisot]

I think that a large part of that comes from the inspiration of the magnificent source material and the respect that is owed to it as a cultural tradition(?). I find it fascinating how people are drawn to literature from a writer whose religious philosophical view of life inspired so much about the books. So many great works of art in the past were divinely inspired and somehow touch us in a way that is life-affirming and fulfilling, whilst modern works of art seem to affirm a pointless and empty existence.

[@jaredconnor]

@@JeanParisot hear hear. The world of Tolkien was/is sublime.

[@ilex471]

Peter Jackson is absolutely clueless when it comes to the intricacies of making music. In one of the 'making of' videos, when they are scoring the music, and he wanted something to sound different, they had someone there who could 'translate' what Peter wanted so that the conductor understood what he meant. It was very funny to see.

[@TihetrisWeathersby]

Just watched LOTR for the first time, It was a magical experience, From the soundtrack to acting, I'm lost for words

[@BoniJNeto]

I envy you, mate. But truth is, every time I rewatch it, it still is as magical as always.

[@yveskylefelicilda8000]

It still gives me the same feelings I had when I watched the whole trilogy for the first time. Some scenes still makes me teary eyes. Tolkien really made the best fictional world for us and Peter Jackson paved the way for it to be seen on the big screen.

[@bobdill6701]

The greatest movie ever created. Welcome to the fandom

[@tg.wolves]

Agreed. I wish I could watch them with a fresh pair of eyes, but in a way they seem to only get better with age. The extended editions are so immersive and rich too. Three masterpieces scored with incredible music.

[@Uncle_Neil]

When the cold of winter comes Starless night will cover day In the veiling of the sun We will walk in bitter rain But in dreams I can hear your name And in dreams We will meet again When the seas and mountains fall And we come, to end of days In the dark I hear a call Calling me there, I will go there And back again

[@bundlewade]

Thank you!

[@shubhamnema8281]

Absolute magic

[@brandonprows]

Exceptionally beautiful

[@yongzhang8364]

Indeed, this melody is my favorite. What a beautiful and touching piece of music！

[@benjitheband5661]

I wish the ring hadn’t come to me “So do all who see such times, but that is not for us to decide. All we can do is decide what to do with the time that is given to us” AND HE GRABS THE RING AND PUSHES THE BOAT IN THE WATER AND I CRY

[@omercavus60]

"...and they made a great Music before him. In this Music the World was begun; for Christine Nonbo made visible the song of the The Danish National Symphony, and they beheld it as a light in the darkness."

[@TheCarbonCreed]

that you Illuvatar?

[@aidangriffiths5075]

Yea is that you Eru? 😂

[@Lullaby454]

I know a lot of people say Tolkein probably wouldn't like the films, I'd still love for him to have been able to see them, but I'd love to be able to have him listen to the music. They just captured everything perfectly in the soundtrack ... it's just so beautiful.

[@Gandalf914]

I always thought The Fellowship of the Ring was the best volume of the three. They were all superb beyond belief, but the first one was a clinic on how to write and film the perfect narrative. It will never be surpassed.

[@danielDefoe81]

All the others were video game adaptations. First one really was the best.

[@jeppe7275]

Indeed 😁

[@commenting_otter]

The entire trilogy is amazing, but Fellowship always stood out to me for being the most smooth and straightforward of them.

[@vsoestharm]

I completely agree with you

[@ChiefCrewin]

The amount of character work and world building done in such a relatively short amount of time is nothing other than astonishing.

[@ikartikiyer]

Close your eyes, think of that special friend who we have lost touch with & remember the old friendship days. This music brings nostalgia. Perfectly played by the Danish band.

[@DgDanger72]

Wow! Such a profound statement. Thank you

[@cheebai2583]

"I would've followed you, my brother, my captain, my King" Rest well Boromir, Son of Gondor..

[@davidmunoz670]

Thanks J.R.R. Tolkien for your words, Howard Shore for your sounds and Peter Jackson for your images, for give us this masterpiece.

[@themidsouthcyclist8880]

Christine Nonbo and this orchestra are one of the better things in all of KZbin.

[@tomaszlucjusz113]

It was gloomy December of 2001. I remember getting the Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack on a cassette. I had no knowledge about the movie but I've read the books a few times already. I don't think I will ever experience that magic ever again.

[@MetikalMan]

I would just be bawling my eyes out if I was in the crowd. It’s achingly beautiful.

[@Rumeier_Records]

Howard Shore created a masterpiece. The music from the trilogy will last forever in my mind

[@fredamardis2417]

I'm so thankful that they use you tube to share this amazing orchestra with the world. I will never be able to see them live but to listen to them on you tube is such a pleasure. My husband and i listen to " the good the bad and the ugly all the time". Big clint Eastwood fans. Thank you for sharing . We all need to watch and listen to Gifts from God. They are most defintly a wonderful gift.

[@olarul99]

I am listening to this and I have tears in my eyes and goosebumps, 'cause it is remembering me of a good time, when I saw this movies in the theater, I was 15 years old, life was so much simpler and better. To this day, I never experienced something like LoTR again and I'm afraid, I never will again in our lifetime.

[@karhart6663]

I adore the little touches, like the decor on the music stands, the principal violinist who wears a One Ring replica, the choir members with elf-looking ear cuffs and Hobbit-like hair accessories. Even to the soloist with the very Eowyn blonde braid and ethereal gown. *chef's kiss

[@FernandaSomenauer]

Crying here. For two reasons, one, the song and all it represents is wonderful beyond words, two, I still miss my time playing cello in a orchestra... Luckily I'm at home and only my husband can see my red eyes and nose.

This song is one that just makes me feel like everything is okay every time I hear it. This is an absolute beautiful version! Goosebumps multiple times! Well done!

[@marcellinet8402]

when you are addicted to the story by reading the book three times. Then you watched the films at the cinemas and later on a few times at home. And now you hear this. Thank you Mr. Shore for this beautiful music, thank you, thank you, thank you...

[@sangen48]

This music is so melancholic and so powerful at the same time. Heartbreaking.

[@frauleinhohenzollern8442]

The breaking of the fellowship was sad.. But it had to happen that way. Frodo and Sam had to take the ring away from the others or it would corrupt them slowly over time. The immortal elves, the brave men, the dwarves and their vast underground marvels... None of them could resist the ring. Of all the great races all capable of great deeds, the only ones who could resist were a couple of Hobbits.. Hairy footed halfings that live in hobbit holes. And the others all had their parts to play elsewhere... Aragorn had to see boromirs sacrifice, it made him take his first step toward becoming king and embracing his heritage. Merry playing with the palantir confused sauron and he thought he had the ring, causing him to attack before he was completely ready since he thought he had the ring in gondor. Nome of these things would have happened if the entire fellowship survived and tried to get into mordor, it would have never worked. Such a great story.

[@Stefan_G.]

Ein Meisterwerk von Howard Shore. Sehr gut dargeboten, vom Orchester und vom Chor (Solostimme). Eine Glanzleistung von Allen!!!

[@Rob-ExMachina]

Honestly maybe the best trilogy of movies to have ever been made, the heart and soul of it just feels like such a fond memory shared with friends.

[@fjolnir44]

Goosebumps throughout the whole video, what an amazing composition and interpretation!

[@3headedmonkeypiano]

Same here. No modern show or movie will ever be able to recreate this masterpiece

[@Javier-hg5fh]

I remember when i saw the return of the king at the cinema when i was 10, this movies was a mark in my young life, now with 30 hearing this i feel a combination of emotions that left my heart in peaces.

[@brucewayne964]

How beautiful, this makes me feel satisfied. Thank you for this musik.

[@Alejojojo6]

Music is VERY important in Tolkien mythology cause the world itself was created out of a song ("Ainulindale"). They say that the sound of water and even that found inside of shells has preserve and capture a bit of that song of the beginning of times.

[@TheNightmareShadows]

It's heartwarming to see the little details on the outfits of the musicians. They must be so proud; it has to be amazing to be able to play this.

[@iseriver3982]

The greatest soundtrack.

[@mistadopeman]

This music always just feels right. The flutes are always a delight to hear. As masterful the movies are on their own, they wouldn’t be the same without all the great music Howard Shore worked on. Let us also pay credit to Enya.

[@mathildejensen3285]

Its actually the entertaintment orchestra you see perform here. DR ( danish radio and tv public service channel) also have a symphony orchestra, but they mostly play jazz and blues music.

[@donkello-my8yj]

No, it's not the entertainment Orchestra, it's the Danish National Symphony Orchestra (DR Symfonikorkestret). The entertainment Orchestra (Underholdningsorkestret) was laid off, due to budget cut, but is still in existense, privately owned, by the name of Danmarks Underholdningsorkester: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2bHn52ZeqmdjJY&pp=ygUfRGFubWFya3MgVW5kZXJob2xkbmluZ3Nvcmtlc3Rlcg%3D%3D

[@talhagun863]

I didn't only listen to it. I literally watched the scenes in my mind.

[@Karuoko]

The chills... Each of Lotr Songs are sweet memories to me. I watched trilogy so many times (cut and uncut versions of 9hours, or even more I dun remember the total hours of the true uncut version). I watched them with my fathers and also went to theater. Bless those moments, the best of my life. I begun with reading the books and I was not disappointed w/ the cast choices. Aragorn and Arwen being the most beautiful couple on screen imo. Both gorgeous and ethereal. Galadriel was also one of my fav character. So impressive and enchanting alltogether. And then... Ring of Wokness... My heart broke when I saw what they have done to Galadriel. To sully to this point a marvellous character. To destroy such a legacy. I can't even begin to process all the shame they have brought upon Tolkien and PJ legacy. To use such excuse of "she is young my arse ! (1thousand yo at least), to make her potentially date or even copulate later w/ Sauron ? Yeah. I hate those woke leftists and their stupid rainbow degenerates politics. But I could rant for at least 12h non-stop about this heresy. Amazon only gud trait is package delivery nothing else. Games and Series or films, they should not even approach it w/ their disgusting feminazi hands.

[@-_YouMayFind_-]

calm down haha. You don't need to watch it if you don't want to. I am left but don't like that series and I would not have done what was done with the new series. Its not the lefties that made the movies Its the film makers that chose to to what they do. Neither am I rainbow. Left is not all about that actually :D its the extreme cases.

[@dorisdaumann5914]

The music that eru iluvatar listens to is perfect

[@mikestanley9176]

The theatrical versions are great, but the extended cuts blow everything else away.

[@henrikandreason7261]

It starting to get harder to find the cut versions nowadays. Even when you buy them on KZbin they are the extended versions. After time they have become the standard versions, and the only ones that people see as the true movies the trilogy is meant to represent. Even when they do special screenings at some cinemas from time to time, its yet again the extended ones that are shown. Hours and length dont matter anymore when people binge 12 episode series in one go over a weekend or less anyways.

[@JorickTube]

So..... I just started crying when she began to sing.
