Complete Symphony not available on this item,
By
This review is from: Howard Shore Creating the Lord of the Rings Symphony (DVD)
As Richard from Texas very accurately stated, this is NOT the complete symphony. I don't know why you would offer a "making of" and not release the actual music. I heard the LOTR Symphony at the Hollywood Bowl, and it contains music that is NOT in the movie or on the 4 or 5 soundtrack CDs. In particular, there is one part, the Lost Glory of Moria, written for 8 part men's chorus, that is simply fantastic. I am still waiting, 5+ years later, to find a recording of this music.

The work behind the music,
By
This review is from: Howard Shore Creating the Lord of the Rings Symphony (DVD)
I bought the 4-disc set of the Return of the King at Target, and it came with this 5th DVD, a documentary on the making of the music behind the trilogy. The DVD is well done, and makes the good choice of having more music than speaking. All the tunes from the trilogy are in here, both the orchestral music, and those with words by Enya and other artists. The DVD shows the people behind the music, both the composers, technical crew, musicians, and singers. Overall, a great complement to the movies themselves.

Howard Shore Creating the Lord of the Rings Symphony,
By
This review is from: Howard Shore Creating the Lord of the Rings Symphony (DVD)
This DVD, is in some way... one of the best results from the Peter Jackson's Movies; the music from Lord of the Rings is a master piece; no doubt about it. and this is a resume, a very good one. I give it 4 stars becouse the only thing i miss was MORE! MORE MUSIC!
Creating the Lord of the Rings Symphony, is the best way for those whom have no chance to see the Symphony in our own cities (or countrys)...
