Even if you haven't seen any of the LOTR movies, this set of classical scores will take you on an epic journey through hopelessness to utmost victory and inspiration! This is definitely a must-have for any lover of classical music!

Conductor Nic Raine's style nicely complement's the original Howard Shore epic with a more subtle, classical, and operatic vocal style. This 2-disc set has high production quality and is performed by the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.
My favorites:

"Twilight and Shadow" (vocal performed by Charlotte Kinder)
"Into the West" (Cello instrumental)
"May It Be" (vocal performed by Tara Scammell)

I had real high hopes for the soundtrack cause the movies ROCKED!!! This was a disappointment cause the vocal version of "Into the West" "sucked" cause the lady sounded like she lost her voice an faded in an out. They should have gotten Enya to do the vocals or AT LEAST the Into the West cause the ldy that sung it made the volume "suck" when I thought it would have a BIG finish but instead it had a BIG disappiontment!!!

Just be sure to read up on this closely... it's not the orchestra you hear in the movie, and you may be especially disappointed when you hear the vocal tracts - gone are great talents Enya and Annie Lennox, replaced by no-name voices. This is not BAD music, but don't think you're a genius for capturing the music of the movies on one inexpensive 2-CD set.
