THE LORD OF THE RINGS AND THE HOBBIT
- the Auenland concert
with "Pippin" Billy Boyd
After 100,000 visitors, sold-out concerts and fabulous enthusiasm now with a new program in 2020:
JRR Tolkien's masterpiece as a live concert featuring orchestra, choir and the Tolkien Ensemble, as well as world premieres by Academy Award winners Howard Shore, Annie Lennox, Enya and Ed Sheeran / featuring "Saruman" actor and Hollywood legend Sir Christopher Lee and an unpublished song for Peter Jackson
The fantastic world of the hobbits and elves of JRR Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" is once again touring as a concert with a symphonic orchestra and choir, and a two-hour evening performance brings the fabled double trilogy to life in a unique musical event - the menacing sounds of Mordor and the shrill assault of the Black Riders right up to the beautiful lyrical melodies of the Elves - almost 100 performers will turn the concert hall into a musical scene of Middle-earth.
Howard Shore, who composed the music for the film trilogy "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Little Hobbit", received an Oscar for this, as his leitmotifs, like Richard Wagner's "Ring des Nibelungen", literally make the audience feel when the ring unfolds its power and corrupts the wearer of all power: a parable that fits well into today's age.
From the film trilogy is Pippin actor "Billy Boyd" there, who has composed and sung for Peter Jackson "Edge of Nigh" in Lord of the Rings and "The Last Goodbye" in The Hobbit. He will present these works with an orchestra to a live audience. Billy Boyd was originally only engaged as an actor by Peter Jackson, but one night at a karaoke bar in New Zealand, he sang so impressively that the producers asked him if he could write a song in two days? Two days later, he presented three self-composed songs with Peter Jackson - a day later, the scene was filmed with his song "Edge of Night", as Howard Shore with other songs was not that far.
The press celebrates "The Lord of the Rings & the Hobbit - the Concert" as a "highly emotional and mythical experience" and praises: "Nearly 100 actors - from the well-playing orchestra over the strong-voice Auenland choir to the outstanding soloists - showed commitment, Whether bombastic with timpani and gong or delicate gentle flute tones: Howard Shore's well-known, Oscar-winning melodies from the film trilogy, which immediately sound for the right "cinema in the head" At the end of the day, there was neither audience nor musician on the chairs: the audience managed to get the actors on stage for three encores with a standing ovation ".
