THE LORD OF THE RINGS

THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING

The Complete Recordings

Music composed, orchestrated, and conducted by Howard Shore

Diegetic music composed and performed by Plan 9

Featuring “Aníron” and “May It Be” by Enya

Transcribed for piano / short score

A note from the transcriber

This transcription represents my best effort to capture as much information

about the Fellowship of the Ring film score as possible, including notes, tempi,

orchestration, song texts, and cues from the movie (extended edition). The

transcription is in two-staff short score format, and although information

content took precedence over playability, most of the transcription should be

playable at the piano, with omission of certain lines if desired. The source for

the transcription was the Complete Recordings, and it is indicated where

material is cut from the film. The transcription is divided according to the track

listings in the Complete Recordings.

Cues from the film are shown in italics, with dialogue in “quotation marks” and

characters underlined. Song names, authors, and translators are shown in small

text. Song lyrics are in normal type, with English translations shown beneath in

italics. The matching of lyrics to the recordings is done only where possible,

and is indebted to the timestamps on Marilynn Miller’s website

www.amagpiesnest.com. At certain points translation was not possible, due to

the jumbling of syntax in matching words to the music.

This transcription was done by a fan of Howard Shore’s score and Tolkien’s

works, for the interest of other fans. It was inspired by Alcaeru’s website

alcaeru.weebly.com and Doug Adams’s wonderful book “The Music of the

Lord of the Rings Films.”
