Broughton also did Homeward Bound.
...in the same year as Tombsone, no less. Homeward Bound is one of my favorite scores, largely because of childhood nostalgia.

Wild Signals -
I'm not convinced of that, remnember the OST CD has been severly edited, you cannot use that as a guideline for were music is supposed to be in the film.
I'm pretty sure the opening of Forth Eorlingas was composed for the scene of Gandalf's appearance.
Yes, but some sequences were left unedited (Foundations Of Stone; The Leave Taking), and at present I'm inclined to believe that it was meant for Helm's Deep. (where it actually fits into the final cut of the film; with Gandalf's appearance, there isn't enough time for the full piece, and it would segue oddly into the music for the fight with the balrog that can be heard in the fan credits anyway...IMO) But we're both just speculating...
That's Orc music, not Balrog music.I stand corrected.

I doubt that, I think Shore just liked the opening for Arwen's Fate and included it into Evenstar for the album.
It's possible that it was intended for there, but it *is* looped, and Breath of Life *does* fit perfectly over that scene, and makes perfect sense thematically since it uses "The Diminishment of the Elves". Maybe it's an alternate, but I still say it's tracked.

Sam also says "for Frodo!" though, thus the confusion.

I've always mentally labeled that cue For My Old Gaffer!.

Helm's Deep -
Well, I don't think it's what he meant, but TTT, at least, has a few cases of tracking. Off the top of my head:
A section from Weathertop is used when Treebeard stomps on the orc that was trying to kill Merry and Pippin.
The end of Treebeard is tracked into Gandalf's appearance in Fangorn. As are the opening twenty seconds of Forth Eorlingas.
Some of the Balrog music is used during the warg attack. The opening of Evenstar is tracked(?), and then looped during the "Arwen's Fate" scene, and part of Gilraen is used there as well. (the original score for that scene is heard in Breath of Life)
And of course, "The Last March of the Ents" at Helm's Deep.
But that's a sidetrack, I'm not sure what he meant...
At first, I thought you were referring to the cue in which Frodo scales the orc tower. Then I remembered Aragorn's "For Frodo" scene. Both are pretty cool, although I prefer the former.Yeah. Should probably really call the one at the Black Gates The Eagles Are Coming or something..

Prologue -- Hook -
No, that's For Frodo.

I haven't done anything with the files either...not enough time.

It might, I dunno though, since the booklet is in Korean -- which I can't read.
The eventual US release will hopefully translate it into English...This month's article in FSM said that the lyrics are in ancient Korean.

Official response from Dario Marianelli:
"Are you scoring the next Potter film?"
not that I know Dan. Someone must have put it there as a joke.
And thus, another lame IMDB rumor goes byebye.

How do you pick between perfection?

March of the Villians gets on my nerves, and I don't like the love theme, so I rarely listen to disc two.

I knew there were reasons I was a John Williams fan. This is definitely now one of them.

3. Gollum's theme, which was established in FOTR and then totally replaced in TTT
Actually, Gollum has two themes -- for his double-personality
-- and they're both widely used in TTT....ttbk
The Goodbye, The Little Princess, Patrick Doyle -
Night Crossing -- Goldsmith
Ranks very highly on my most-listened-to list, even higher on my most-enjoyed list...

More likely, the site is just still under construction.

I have it.

Journey To Weathertop -
Mine won't arrive till tomorrow.
Of course, if they do mention a Two Towers date on the official site, I could only assume we'd have to add an extra two or three weeks to whatever Reprise announce.Actually, probably not...TTT and ROTK are unlikely to have the same last minute legal technicality to delay them that FOTR had.
Dan Goldwasser has mentioned late spring for TTT, and next winter for ROTK more than once.

Hilts Captured -
Does anyone know if the "over 80 leitmotifs" is just for FOTR or all of LOTR? I guess we'll find out soon enough.
Later...
It's for all three films.
ttbk, who could take a stab at naming them...

From Variety, as posted at FSM
'Tackling Spielberg's "Munich" forced Williams to do a musical 180, he says. "It couldn't be more different from 'Geisha' in ambiance and texture."For it, he created "a kind of prayer for peace, a lyrical composition associated with Avner (Eric Bana) and the home he leaves behind in Israel," and another theme for solo voice and orchestra "that accompanies one of several flashbacks to the tarmac at Munich, and also one of several scenes that recall the abduction of the Olympic athletes from their rooms at the Olympic Village" in 1972. Lisbeth Scott, the vocalist on "The Passion of the Christ," is the soloist.
Searching for an authentic Palestinian sound, Williams employed the oud, a Middle Eastern lute, and added the cimbalom, a Hungarian zither, as well as clarinet and strings for "an almost fantastically Oriental quality," he says.

Any chance that Soundtrack.net will also give us a sneak peek at this?
Goldwasser has said he'll probably have a "First Listen"., IIRC

Love the Ring theme in that first sample...oooh...
