Horward Shore - Concerning Hobbits

[04tinkerbell40]

R.I.P John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, and thank you for this wonderful storys..

I´ll always love it !

(sorry for mistakes, I´m german ^^)

[andc95]

this song better be in The Hobbit, I will jizz of nostalgia

[ElvishinterventioN]

Why December ???????? it's been years :'(

[MrBluebirdsfc]

1:45 you can see how much the conductor is enjoying that... best film soundtrack ever.

[kemarigallimore84]

AHHHHH!!! I love this...listened to it on repeat for 2 hours today :)

Lord of the Rings <3

[guything8]

"YOU SHALL NOT PASS", thats what she said XD

[oldgrampa3]

yes yes yes

[TFpoop]

I love how the top comments always have spelling errors lol

[NeroBlack2200]

I have such respect for the composers in this field who do more than make a film's sonic qualities "louder" and "more intense". Jerry Goldsmith and John Williams both conducted their orchestras, and Howard Shore composed, conducted, AND orchestrated.

That's not just talent. That's genius.

[okeoak]

happynew year dragon did we tittle your wing when we hide inside over all that gold we slide and slide we be trained by half closed irish eye o if he were ours that sun tzu ya but mick collans welcomes you but think for a while could irish man travalled along silk road with this bamboo,gun powder from horse fodder,silk from wood pulp and little worm too na this truly yours we only tan in light vitimin d we see you 1 4 of world we only little island be but with sun tzu and earthstem we pervail..

[MrPleuvie]

Does anyone know which instrument plays the intro? I want to buy the same.

[annoiyngvideos321]

@MrPleuvie some kind of tin whistle or a block flute i think

[iwatchvideos57]

@MrPleuvie Brass D Session by Burke Pennywhistles.

[JackLisin]

@MrPleuvie I really wanna buy it too. It's an amazing instrament. Its called a tin whistle or a irish whistle. sell for around 50-5000 dollers.

[Firestar431]

Never before has my mind been stimulated with so much peacefulness with the chimes of only one song. Its amazing.

[alexter112]

Sauron,saruman,gollum and 32 orcs disliked it

[JitteryBen]

Pretty much my favourite classicey song

[oldgrampa3]

[23456gamer]

[fg95able]

The best soundtrack without voice I've never heard

[acurazdx4]

[MrMassae]

Wonderful melody. :-)

[guything8]

Thumbs up if you want to live in the LOTR world

[lordsybren]

if i listen to this and close your eyes, and think of a wide landscape with green hills and small folks talking and farming. o feel so bad i cant actually get there because this masterwork totally creates a picture.

[frankthefrench13]

who the fuck don't like this song?

[Gliiidter]

I was wondering if that was a bodhran in the song. But at 2:00, it looks like some sort of hand drum... hmm

[VlikeVince777]

I dont know why ...but when im old and die

I wanna die in piece with this music !

[Chuar1]

35 orcs disliked cause sauron said they might never play the violin

[narutofan9tf]

Beautiful... 

[viktorofsweden]

[Australia19911509]

@viktorofsweden good one

[Feeshmonster1]

i wonder what brand that penny whistle is? loads of help if yea can help me

[45segun2]

Una obra de arte sin duda alguna.

[SHADOWxDM]

@45segun2 Totalmente de acuerdo

[Electracion]

Actually it is a penny whistle (or tin flute or a fipple flute) though He is amazing at playing Howard Shore does a wonderful job emulating Celtic folk style music go LOTR

[21Leo12]

The man on the Flute is fantastic

[SirGoodFella]

Thumbs up if you dislike when people say, "Thumbs up if..."

[michaltarfle]

@SirGoodFella you just did what you say you dislike

[michaltarfle]

Editorials in the newspaper, blogs, and everyday conversations - imagine a life without these things, where content of everything from books to music are controlled and people are forced to edit their words to echo only government sanctioned propaganda. Freedom of speech is at the core of my growth and development - it is one of the greatest gifts my country has given me.

[michaltarfle]

As I have grown and learned about the oppression people face in other parts of the world, my appreciation for this freedom has deepened. In many countries, a simple Google search can get one jailed and beaten, and his or her family persecuted. Here, on any given issue, I am free to explore other’s opinions and learn from them; elsewhere, people are restricted to one censored viewpoint. To live in a society where I can interact freely with anyone is something that I will never take for grantd

[michaltarfle]

Reasoned debate and discussion among our forefathers was critical in forming our Constitution. Abraham Lincoln said that our government is “of the people, by the people, for the people,” - it is the right to express our opinions and political views that makes it so. Freedom of speech has played a key role in the development of our nation, and continues to do so.

[michaltarfle]

Huge advances in our country have been achieved through people freely voicing their beliefs. Thomas Paine shared his political views in Common Sense, influencing public opinion and sparking ideas of independence. Martin Luther King spoke out against racial prejudice at the National Mall, just steps away from the Capitol, which inspired the movement for fair and equal treatment of all Americans.

[michaltarfle]

Every day, I wake up and am able to read the newspaper, research any topic on the internet, and talk freely about anything with friends and family. I can do all these things because in my country I am privileged to enjoy freedom of speech - the right to voice my opinions, and to debate and discuss ideas without fear of punishment.

[michaltarfle]

that flute intro is amazing

[NativeAmerican4Life]

Howard, you tha man! :D

[DudeKingTV]

After new year, they played this song in a orchestra, and just loved it, i wished that they played forever and ever, it was so beatifull :D

LOTR 4 Ever :)

[MostEpicMovieClips]

/watch?v=1dRpnSHs6WU

[LilBenOO7]

Can't wait for the hobbit film to come out in December!!!

[LiviLovesGreenDay]

This may sound weird, but I have been trying to cry while listening to music for quite some time now, and this made me able to.

[michaltarfle]

@LiviLovesGreenDay You're right that does sound weird.

Bbut i agree with you this is beautiful,

[msFlyingDouche]

This is so epic... No it is way better than epic. i can not even write what i'm pronouncng right now.

[lena8239]

04:0:25 przepiekne

[ThuleYOrden]

sehr gut

[Wrash16]

The Lord of The Rings movie was my childhood. This broke my heart.

[ohanas0710]

great!!

[PkTurtleMungicake]

A couple of days ago, I was looking for mmos and found Lord of the rings online and I remembered how boring lord of the rings seemed when I was little and I had little to none attention span so I decided to download it to try so I started playing it and I decided that I shouldn't play a game that I don't know much about. I watched the hobbit (1977) and I really liked it. just now, I finished The fellowship of the ring and I cried when it finished, I hadn't seen that movie in 5 years. :)

[FipMaglovsky]

Change "tube" for "repeat" in you link bar...

Now you're doing it right!

[Doominator99]

the world stops making sense when youtube allows dislike buttons on videos like this

[wraithRaptor]

God Bless Yorkshire.

[iwatchvideos57]

the dislike button shouldn't even exist for videos like this.

[CornyTelecaster49]

[CornyTelecaster49]

[CornyTelecaster49]

@BeatleMania631 do you mean the one that plays the backing sequence for the violin solo at 0:27? i believe thats an accordion :D

[iwatchvideos57]

@BeatleMania631 Tin Whistle or Penny Whistle

[casinoplayer345]

35 orcs

[gnr9495]

"I made a promise Mr. Frodo, a PROMISE, don't you leave him Samwise Gamgee. And I don't mean to, I don't mean to"

"Oh Sam"

Favorite part in a movie

[jf6199]

[TheMLP92]

Please, play this at my funeral!

[AALLJJNNDDRR]

Howard Shore is doing The Hobbit soundtrack, prepare your ears for some awesomeness.

[MrTimmy23]

@AALLJJNNDDRR But it's sad that he did a soundtrack for crap like twilight.

[karatekat78]

This music fits perfect when Frodo and Gandalf meet in The Fellowship of the Ring, I pay more attention to the music than what they're saying.

[MrBlazers22]

such a beautiful, peacful, colorful, fun song to listen to!

[prince112112]

1:23 There's Charlie Sheen :O

[F1LCO]

Howard Shore is a genius...

[LoreenaIrons]

that's what I am Tolkien about...

[backuganhelper]

Cant wait to watch the Hobbit XD

[sedugusella]

how delightful... great genius piece of music and art made by 100 percent whites... miss the days when the white world was for whites only.. how I wish I could go back in time.. proud white race creators of so much beauty and amazing art.. now taking over by a Sauron style elite and a Troll / Ork style minorities...

[characteravatar]

I love watching Howard Shore conduct this. Also, I bet the musician playing the tin whistle never thought he'd have a solo in one of the most beautiful themes from one one of the biggest movie franchises.

[HeroOfTime775]

how the hell did i get here from minecraft?

[300warrior300]

@HeroOfTime775 Remember what Bilbo used to say- It's a dangerous business browsing youtube. You click in the suggested videos and if you don't keep your feet there's no knowing where you might be swept off too

[iheartlatin1]

Is it crazy to want to walk down the aisle to this on my wedding day?

[HeroOfTime775]

@iheartlatin1 not at all my good man! XD

[jgarc230]

@iheartlatin1 nope. its an amazing piece

[BlackBulletIV]

@iheartlatin1 Wow, that's a brilliant idea!

[Fireslingerpirate]

[evelynmbrito]

[luke060493]

35 people are barred from the Green Dragon

[saad2907]

when the mordor falls , all the orcs died except 35

[Tylethian]

pure genius. and those 35 dislikes are people that have depressing lives and are jealous because they do nothing with their lives but get fat off chips and mountain dew. those 35 people are the reason legitimately good music like this is not as popular as it used to be.

[KingHarlaus1]

@Tylethian very true whatever your name is but those 35 people better listen up cause all you do is dunk yourself with mud

[zanafor3]

I love this song...so much...I feel so blessed to be able to play the tin whistle part. I will never give up playing the tin whistle, for as long as I live. Thank you, Howard Shore. Thank you, J.R.R. Tolkien.

[Fahrenheit1407]

Anyone know the name of the principal first violin by any chance?

[XXensation]

@Fahrenheit1407

I think it´s Richard Roberts ... first violinist at Montreal Symphony Orchestra, you can find him on their web page ... an outstanding performance !

[GrenadeCatcher]

its like sex for my ears

[LilCrunkJaY]

This symphony always makes me move to tears so hard, it touches my heart like no other melody, with all its beauty, power and simplicity. Im only 23, but I already know,this is the melody I want to listen to at my funeral.Im going to stay a LotR-Fan my whole life. LotR, this is something big,a masterwork,something that will stay in minds for hundred of years, my children will read the books and watch the movies, and there children, and so on

btw: very nice comments afore, too; I've to say that

[MultiFroggies]

If there is a heaven then i would make a middle-earth heaven with me living in it with these music tunes at the background and i will make epic journeys and the fellowship will acommpany me. the though makes me want to die

[aizhol]

When I die and go to heaven, whole eternity shall I spend in middle rows of this concert. Until the Universe will change and my deepest jar of love to this music will be filled with satisfaction... again...

[MrTimmy23]

The part from 0:37 - 0:53 is just beautiful.

[AquaellaAaron]

This song got me past the wolves of Isengard unscathed.

[smcskyrim]

This always gives me goosebumps :) brings back memories of when i first watched it

[dneusch16]

Wow! very cool!

[RDotDCrewP]

[iwatchvideos57]

[ScotlandtheBrave3]

I'm walking down the aisle to this song for my wedding this spring. =)

[117husky]

LOTR; one of the gratest things ever made by men.

[FirstClassDigital]

I started crying when i realized he did music for one of the twilight movies also

[kimchiballers]

anyone got a sheet music for violin? :D

[iwatchvideos57]

2:07- 2:38 i nearly started crying.

[KingHarlaus1]

35 fools walking to mordor

[KingHarlaus1]

this truly makes us think about the past like ,the good times,the laughs,the care,sharing,the fun and what our people have done for us. To me this masterpiece is like a gift to think back.

[CountryTroubadour]

What is the flute called in the start of the video?

[iwatchvideos57]

@CountryTroubadour most beautiful instrument ever to be played by man, the "penny whistle," "tin whistle" or "irish flute"

[CountryTroubadour]

@iwatchvideos57 Thank you very much!! I'm new to the whole flute part. Do you know what key the flute is in? Thank you again

[SgtGt]

35 ppl are just stupid ...

[2mrblackman]

35 People SHALL NOT PASS!

[ReaderFlutist96]

I'm learning to play this on my flute!

[MrMatto91]

Howard Shore stands next to the many great composers (John Williams, Hans Zimmer, Jerry Goldsmith, ect.) as a pure genius of music.
