Lord of the Rings scores slate numbers?

Definitely not, because the film was obviously massively re-edited after scoring


Jim seems to be implying that the EE could shift some scenes back to the original positions when scored.

But of course, he's being vague as usual ;)

I don't actually have a complete list of FOTR slates but may be able to fill in a few gaps in some areas if there is any interest (7Q is the first part of The Mirror of Galadriel, fact fans). The 'cue' numbering was introduced purely to break down the score for recording purposes and make the sheer quantity of music manageable; compositionally the score consists of lengthy overarching pieces.

The concept of breaking these pieces into 'cues' disappeared almost entirely for ROTK. To give an example, 511 The Palantir covers everything from the Legolas/Aragorn night-time Edoras scene through to Gandalf leaving with Pippin.

I am curious, has anyone attempted to make some sort of complete list of all known cues from all three LOTR movies that are not present in the Complete Recordings (regardless if they are alternates, properly edited, etc)? (including the theatrical edition, extended edition, from video games, original soundtracks, dvd menus & documentaries, etc?)

 

I might attempt this after listening to the 'rarities'.

 

 

I'll be making a start on this shortly!

 

 

@Jim Ware did you ever actually begin - or better yet finish - this project?

TTT:

Samwise The Brave (9a)

 

FOTR:

The Shire [m4]

Many Meetings (m55)

Cave Troll/Mithril Vest/The Second Hall (m94, m95, m95)

Khazad-Dum (m96)

The Fighting Uruk-Hai/The River Anduin (m120)

 

BTW @Faleel: Thanks for that!

The 'm' numbers for FOTR are from the initial spotting of the film ('Breaking the Fellowship' is M140) - these were updated before the sessions to use the reel number/letter format (for example 'Boromir' is 7N, 'A Knife in the Dark' is 4A, 'Concerning Hobbits' is 1G).

Fellowship and Two Towers were more straightforward. Fellowship compositions were given simple 'm' numbers during spotting which were converted to reel numbers and part letters as post-production progressed (The Great River started life as m135 and became 8G).

And @Jim Ware thanks for all that!

Interesting to note that apparently there could be a shorter version of "The Departure Of The Fellowship" from when the scene was still in the Theatrical Cut, if the list is accurate. The film AND OST jump directly from "Bilbo's Gifts" to "The Ring Goes South", and it sounds perfectly natural to me, so I assume the list is wrong in that one spot, though.

 

Also @Faleel reported that cue 23 on this list is "Mithril Vest", not "Mithril!"... but I've seen plenty of times before when the sheet music title doesn't match the recording log title.

Does anyone know if that list of titles is legit and, if so, does anyone have the first half of the list?
