Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King in Concert

Following the screenings of the second film in the Lord of the Rings trilogy in September last year, the Philharmonia Chorus took part in screenings of this film classic in the third film of the trilogy, The Return of King. There were six showings over four days, 14-17 March at the Royal Albert Hall. Middle-earth came to life in Howard Shore's epic score, for which he won his second Oscar for Best Original Score, performed live by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, the Philharmonia Chorus, and Trinity Boys Choir. The performances were conducted by Ludwig Wicki.
