THE POWER OF HOWARD SHORE’S MUSIC
I was studying my report in Computer Achitecture at 1:30 midnight while listening to the Return of the King soundtrack with my earphone earphone connected to our main radio. When my favorite track (The White Tree or ‘The Lighting of the Beacons Theme) started to play, I closed my eyes for a moment, tried to relax and play the Lighting of the Beacons scene in my mind while the music is playing.
After the 3 1/2 minutes of awe-inspiring music, I opened my eyes and all of a sudden, I found myself staring blankly at the paper I was holding for about a second!
In that one second I thought I’m in Middle Earth few seconds back. It was a wonderful feeling. I realized the great effect of Shore’s music to me as well as the LOTR movies.
I just wish na hindi na lang ako nagising….I’m back to reality….
