Aragorn's coronation cover

Hello ! :-)

Here is a year of recovery from the scene of the coronation of King Aragorn, excerpt from " Lord of the Rings " The Return of the King .

The music was originally composed by Howard Shore for the film by Peter Jackson.

Important : The Lord of the Rings "The Fellowship of the Rings", "The Two Towers" and "The Return of the King" in their film versions and the name of the caracters, events and places are full trademarks of The Saul Zaentz Company d/b/a Middle-earth Enterprises ("SCZ") under license to New Line Productions, inc., Copyrights 2011 New Line Productions, inc.

The challenge was multiple :
- Able to compose music substitution on one of the scenes gathering a very large number of musical themes founders of the saga,
- Invent the main themes in "Lord of the Rings " style , fully compatible with the music of Howard Shore and yet entirely original ,
- Keep the dialogue and song performed by King Aragorn and integrate them as if they were a natural part of this exercise replay.

And finally, as a bonus, you'll get a soft and tender kiss of love at 3:19 ... !

I wish you a good listener and a good viewing of this exercise in film music. ;-)

Bonjour à tous, :-)

Voici un exercice de reprise de la scène du couronnement du roi Aragorn, extrait tiré "de Lord of the Rings", Le retour du roi.

La musique a été initialement composée par Howard Shore pour le film de Peter Jackson, tiré de l'œuvre de J.R.R. Tolkien.

Le défi était multiple :
- arriver à composer une musique de substitution sur l'une des scènes rassemblant un nombre très importants de thèmes musicaux fondateurs de la saga,
- inventer des thèmes principaux dans le style "Lord of the Rings", entièrement compatible avec la musique d'Howard Shore et pourtant entièrement originaux,
- conserver les dialogues et la chanson interprétée par le roi Aragorn et les intégrer comme s'ils faisaient naturellement partie de cet exercice de relecture.

Et pour finir, en bonus, vous aurez droit à un doux et tendre baiser d'amour à 3:19 ... !

Je vous souhaite une bonne écoute et un bon visionnage de cet exercice de musique de film. ;-)
