The Lord of The Rings Trilogy - Live

"I will take the Ring,' he said, 'though I do not know the way."

Eight years in the making, Peter Jackson's Lord of The Rings Trilogy is still an epic cinematic masterpiece, encapsulating J.R.R Tolkien's vast saga of the trials of a Middle Earth overrun with evil and one heroic Hobbit's journey to restore peace. Now, for the first time in North America, the three films are presented on a massive screen, accompanied by a very special concert, with 250 musicians, soloists and a chorus from 21st Century Symphony Orchestra & Chorus of Lucerne, Switzerland bringing Howard Shore's emotional and bombastic score to life. Expect spine tingling thrills as you follow Frodo and the Fellowship to Mount Doom and back.

An astonishing work of fiction, Tolkien's trilogy is not only a powerhouse of 20th Century literature, never having been out of print, but it continues to mean a great deal to fans, both casual and more interested. There is wit, action, heart and heart-break threaded through these stories of elves, men, hobbits and other fantastical creatures. At first it was thought to be un-filmable, but that did not perturb New Zealander Peter Jackson, who sought to recreate Middle Earth using the natural beauty of his country. Subsequently, the films have gone on to garner 17 Academy Awards, and become one (three of?) the best selling blockbusters of all time.
