Lord of the Rings 1 - The Breaking of the Fellowship (Synthesia Piano)

Sheet music: www.sheetmusic...
This is my piano arrangement of "The Breaking of the Fellowship" from The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring by Howard Shore. Done by ear.
Despite what the video outro says, I am not giving out the sheet music for free anymore because of copyright concerns. The copyright holders need to be able to collect royalties. I apologize for the inconvenience. The purchasable sheet music is slightly different than the video's arrangement because I needed to simplify it to make it playable.

This is great! I have memorized the entire thing and my choir director asked me to perform it for the class. Thanks for the amazing tutorial!

[@drewcollier1138]

That’s cool!

More like: Gandalf told me “not to leave you samwise gamgee! And I dont mean to… I don’t mean to”

[@bragnimo]

The best and most complete version so far.

Such an underrated video. Amazing job

[@drewcollier1138]

I have used the same outro picture in every Synthesia video since December and I only just noticed that I spelled "subscribe" wrong. Press "L" to laugh at me. And press "subscribe" to subscribe to me.

Is this possible with human fingers?

[@drewcollier1138]

No, but the purchasable arrangement is.

Got the Doug Adams book for my birthday, such a wonderful analysis. The only thing that bothers me is that he never mentioned "A Hobbit's Understanding" in Return of the King, even though I'm pretty sure there's a few variations on it there.

I was trying to do it and my hands were dieing I still can’t figure it out. ✋😭

[@danielpizzey212]

don't you leave him Samwise don't you ever leave him and I don't intend too

[@davehorejsi6485]

I just cant reach with my fingers :/ ... do you realy play left hand part only with left hand ? I must help myself with rigt hand...then i end on 4 tap ....But its awesome btw

[@drewcollier1138]

There are octave doublings on some parts just to make it sound nicer. The purchasable sheet music on Sheet Music Plus has been simplified to make it more playable.

[@farhaanj4330]

Just take away the lowest note and its playable for the most part.

[@Ven-7xv]

I really wish i had bigger hands so I could play pieces like this

[@ayamehounslow4350]

Guys I don't think I have enough hands for this...

[@ryanward5770]

I'm looking for a more advanced version of this if there is one

[@drewcollier1138]

I’m not sure there can be a more advanced version without putting stuff that isn’t in the actual recording (since I make my transcriptions as accurate as possible). Would playing the chords as arpeggios make it more advanced for you?

[@ryanward5770]

Adervae yeah I like using arpeggios in alot of the songs or more full chords

[@drewcollier1138]

Are you able to play the arpeggios from seeing the regular chords?

[@ryanward5770]

Adervae probably but but I'm not the best at arranging songs

[@drewcollier1138]

I'm not supposed to give you a different version because it is being sold on Sheet Music Plus, so you would have to rearrange it yourself. I would recommend playing eighth notes up and down, starting with the written bottom note and going up the chord and playing the root an octave higher (since the sheet music only has triads for easier range).

[@dixie_rekd9601]

this is the most soulless version of this piece I've ever heard, its like its being played by a metronome.

[@drewcollier1138]

It's played by my notation software.

[@zelordofzepotatoes5274]

Can you please make an easier version?

[@drewcollier1138]

How so? Do you want each hand to play only one note at a time?

[@drewcollier1138]

Do you still want the easier version like I described above?

[@reinotsurugi]

This is seriously as easy as it gets.

[@expressrobkill]

dude how can you even reach the notes my fingers would snap, thanks for doing it though.

[@drewcollier1138]

You don't have to play the octave doublings. I put them in like that to make it have a more full sound.

[@n3verstop632]

Possible to get midi?

[@drewcollier1138]

I'm not giving it out because the sheet music is being sold (which means I signed over the rights of this arrangement). It might be a copyright problem.

[@n3verstop632]

@@drewcollier1138 Ohh okay but if i buy it as an midi? Or is there anyway to transfer from sheet to midi? Dont know Music theory and cant read sheets

[@geniels56]

@@n3verstop632 you can easy transfer sheet to midi, depends on a program

[@crehenge2386]

Too bad it's unplayable unless you have 3hands...
