The Music of The Lord of The Rings. Tribute to Howard Shore

Join us on March 7th at 18:30 at the iconic Cheltenham Town Hall for Our Precious Concert – one of our most beloved and best-selling programmes, now coming to Cheltenham in its most magical form yet.

Experience the majestic and timeless music of the legendary Lord of the Rings films in a breathtaking concert that will transport you straight into the heart of Tolkien’s universe. Howard Shore’s iconic soundtrack has captivated millions across the world – and now, we bring it to life in a spellbinding performance that includes vocal music inspired by Elvish songs, ancient folklore, and the poetic spirit of Middle-earth.

Performed by the modern chamber orchestra Mystery Ensemble, this immersive evening will guide you through a sonic journey where elves sing, hobbits dance, and the shadows of Mordor loom in the distance. Alongside the orchestra, live vocalists will embody the voices of Tolkien’s world — from ethereal Elvish laments to the haunting chants of ancient realms, bringing a deeply emotional and otherworldly dimension to the music of The Lord of the Rings.

Mystery Ensemble about the programme:

— 'On this beautiful evening, you will feel like the heroes of Tolkien’s fantastic universe, where elves, orcs, hobbits and dwarves live! Imagine: a chamber hall, the authentic sound of motifs from soundtracks… Fabulous, isn’t it? There are rumours that various film composers, having heard «The Lord of the Rings» in our performance, strenuously began composing soundtracks for other films — hoping that someday we will also perform them! We decided to consider it. Don’t believe the rumours — come and make sure that the music of «The Lord of the Rings» in our performance is as exciting as the film itself!’
