#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,415 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Question for Ren.When the Complete Recordings came out, a lot of people were dismayed that the voices of cast members singing were included.How do you, as a music teacher and choir conductrix think of this issue?

Ren 77 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Can you clarify people were talking about- meaning Billy Boyd or Edward Ross..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,415 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Edward Ross is not a cast member, Ren.Back in the day many complained because McKellen, Viggo, Billy Boyd etc... were not professional singers (forgetting that Boyd is in fact a successful musical star) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do in fact realize that Ross isn't an actor - I was just merely trying to clarify if people were upset with specific songs and the chosen singers for the release or the actual actors themselves. So, sometimes actors want to be the person who does their own singing, especially if they 'think' they can sing. But in this case I think Shore was correct in having the actors do their own singing and using it on the recording. Shore worked hard on this Middle Earth masterpiece, Using specific instruments and orchestration to set apart each area. I believe he used something like 90 motifs in his work. The use of amateur singers voices I'm sure Shore wanted to lend a sincerity/earthy tone to the pieces. Boyd's performance for example is hallow and and weary, his voice almost inaudibly cutting in and out as he's singing. What kind of mood would it have created to have a perfectly sung performance in that respect? I think Shore was spot on including all the actor's own singing, it lends a sense of realism to a fantastic time.When I am choosing soloists, much to the dismay of the auditionees, I don't always choose the best singer - I choose the one who can convey the message and set the tone.

I read about everything I could find concerning Shore's music for LOTR and its various releases and I can hardly remember any of the 'complaints' you refer to. Bluffing again to validate a point...?

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,415 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 People on this MB and others were complaining about the 'untrained" voices of the actors and would have preferred that they would have just released the underscore.Hell even for the ROTK OST people were bitching about Viggo's crooning!So either you are looking in all the wrong places, which is typical of you, or you aren't getting my point. Meaning that there's a language barrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard P 4,189 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 The only bit where I remember it bothering me a little was Gandalf's ditty at the beginning of Bag End. The singing works in the context of the scene, but it's still a piece of score underneath which I'd love to have had clean.(it's clean in one of the EE menus, but I felt that was 'polluting' the set somehow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson Nagus 43 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 The only singing I didn't like was Liv Tyler in the House of Healing. It just doesn't sound like it belongs in Middle Earth IMO. I think it is there to make Liv Tyler happy more then to serve a purpose in the movie (or score). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shore then added a little underscore for the EE. In any case, he just provides chords for Gandalf's song. It's not that the singing pollutes a great musical moment, the orchestra there is just backing up the singing.Now Ian Holm's vocal of the same song later in the score still annoys me. Because it's totally unrelated to the actual score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard P 4,189 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Listened to a little bit of FOTR today...I had a sudden urge to listen to the Fighting Uruk-hai sequence from the CR last week. Wonderful. Also the alternate Breaking of the Fellowship.I avoid over-listening to LotR so I can go months without playing a single track - then when I do, it's very fulfilling.
