This deluxe set also includes exclusive new artwork, packaging, and extensive liner notes culled from "The Music of the Lord of the Rings Films," to be published in 2006. Enya's song "May It Be," which received an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song and which she performed at the Academy Awards ceremony, is contained on "The Complete Recordings" within all-new selection titles that reflect the complete score being released in its entirety for the first time.

Vielleicht interessiert es ja jemanden. Ich bin nicht gerade ein CD-Käufer, aber die drei Scores werden eingetütet - sie haben mich die letzten drei Jahre immer begleitet und es hängen schöne Erinnerungen daran. Man kann Shores Musik natürlich auch für kitschigen Fantasy-Mist halten - worauf die ganzen Auszeichnungen und Nominierungen natürlich ironischerweise auch hinweisen - aber ein Mammutprojekt und dichtes Werk thematischer Kohärenz ist es so oder so.
Na hoffentlich ist der Preis nicht allzu hoch...
