An Epic Journey Concludes

One Ring to rule them all,
One Ring to find them.
One Ring to bring them all
and in the darkness bind them.

The Grand Rapids Symphony is going to do a live orchestra performance to the film The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Yes, this is the continuation of the 2009 concert of the glorious The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings and the 2010 concert of the haunting The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.

The battle for Tolkien's Middle Earth ignites in this epic cinematic masterpiece and final installment of the timeless trilogy! Watch the complete film, projected in HD on a huge screen above the orchestra, as more than 200 musicians perform the lush and mystical score.

While the other two movies were shown in October and with two shows, this one is one show in February. Not sure when tickets go on sale for non-series purchases, "Single tickets on sale later this summer." But I swear if the weather is bad we'll get a downtown hotel room. (grin) If anyone is interested in attending with me -- let me know.

(And I bet you thought I was going to talk about Harry Potter, didn't you?) (palantir-grin)

Even though they're only showing the regular version and not the Extended Editions, having the full orchestra and multiple choirs has been a totally awesome experience through the first two movies. Of all the scenes in all three movies, it is the lighting of the signal fires on the mountains which is the single most dramatic scene -- and I cannot wait to hear the orchestra roar through that. (grin)

Also, someone will have to do Annie Lennox at the end. That should be good, too.
