Doug Adams, the local author and musicologist who maintained a close friendship and working relationship with composer Howard ShoreThe tin whistle that introduces the idyllic Shire, the Hardanger fiddle that sweeps over the plains of Rohan, the swelling strings that herald the lighting of Gondor’s beacons—these are just a few of the sounds that are instantly recognizable to fans of Howard Shore’s beloved music from the Lord of the Rings.
In May 2001, shortly after the news broke that Shore was the composer for the Lord of the Rings films, he asked Adams if he would want to be involved in some way. “I was dreaming very small but still very excited,” Adams recalled. Months went by, and in October, an unexpected package from Abbey Road Studios arrived at his home—the score forBenjamin Ealovega’s photos of Howard Shore, included in the 2010 bookAdams was “entranced” as soon as he listened.
