A large orchestra, soloists, and singers of the Cinema Festival Symphonics present Peter Jackson's masterpiece as a captivating live concert. The legendary film success brings Middle-Earth to life in an impressive concert experience that transports the audience to the fabled world of Hobbits, Elves, and Orcs. From the dark sounds of Mordor and the menacing onslaught of the Black Riders to the gentle, poetic melodies of the Elves— the renowned Cinema Festival Symphonics transform the stage into a musical setting of Middle-Earth. Composer Howard Shore created the iconic soundtrack of the film trilogies “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit,” for which he was awarded an Oscar, Grammys and a Golden Globe. His distinctive leitmotifs allow listeners to feel how the Ring unfolds its power and corrupts its bearer—a timeless parable with contemporary relevance. Whether bombastic with timpani and trumpets or elven-like delicate—the world-famous melodies, masterfully interpreted by an outstanding orchestra and magnificent soloists, conjure unforgettable images in the mind.
Impressive light and screen animations, thanks to state-of-the-art technology, transport Middle-Earth fans and fantasy lovers on a captivating musical journey through the films. The spectacular screen animations and visual effects amplify the emotional power of the music and create goosebump moments. The ensemble unleashes an impressive sonic force that completely immerses the audience in the fantastic world of J.R.R. Tolkien.
