Incanus 5,715 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I have only seen FotR thusfar but it was a fantastic experience and among my most precious concert going memories. I am sure RotK performed live will knock the socks off your feet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,364 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 TTT live was awesome because instead of following the tracked music in the film, they went back to Shore's original intentions. I dunno if they do that for ROTK or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 Its not illegal if its on Youtube! The concert was great. The orchestra was very good. It often sounded just like the OST recording. Choir was great. Less loud, but more clear. American soprano Kaithlyn Lusk was a great stand in for both Renee Flemming AND Annie Lennox. (Her Into The West was beautiful) Unusual experience, listening to a live orchestra AND watching a film. The orchestra was perfectly audible throughout. The dialogue was clear, the sound effects more subdued. (Im guessing they toned them down in this print) All in all a great and recommended experience.

I had a similar experience with FotR, the orchestra sounding almost uncannily like the LPO recording and often times I almost forgot that we actually had a 200+ group of people performing in front of us and was sucked into the whole experience of the film. But it was a special delight to actually see the performers right there in front of you and there is always a special electrifying feel to these events. Kaitlyn Lusk was wonderful in FotR as well.

KK 3,307 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 The LotR Symphony has had a couple of concerts here apparently, but that was before I ever started collecting film music I once emailed the Toronto Symphony Orchestra to consider putting on such a concert and they said they'd consider putting on their next concert season program. But I have a feeling it won't happen.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have a feeling it won't happen....They did!Casablanca performed live to film next year!http://www.moviesinconcert.nl/index.php?page=view&id=4708There is a performance of FOTR live to film in Calgary I was gonna recommend, but The Internet tells me that's 2100 miles away...http://www.moviesinconcert.nl/index.php?page=view&id=3271 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,193 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Film version, sadly. How were the acoustics? They're doing FOTR at the Stadthalle in Vienna soon, but after horrid acoustics the "symphony" had in the same location, I have little motivation to see it.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 I saw the LOTR Symphony in what was basically a sports arena and that completely ruined it. (far too big so you could barely see the orchestra, and it was amplified, so all I heard was the shitty huge Bose speaker just in front of me.The Doelen Theatre where I was last night is a proper concert hall, and has been the home of the Rotterdam Philharmonic for decades, to the acoustics were good.

Marian Schedenig 8,193 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I wish they'd to this in a proper concert hall here. Plus the orchestra, chorus and soloists they're using here are probably the cheap way out. I was toying with the idea of going to Munich for their live screening last month, but in the end I was too lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 From what I know, the LOTR symphony seems to have played mostly in big venues. Which is a damn shame.Imagine it in the Concertgebouw? or the Musikverein?DEATH! The End Of All Things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
