Lord of the Rings soundtracks

[Ritterskoop]

I am looking for a track to purchase that includes a good bit of harp.

The Two Towers instrumentation appears to be Celtic harp rather than the stand-up sort, and Fellowship of the Ring looks to be available to purchase only the whole album.

So if you can recommend a track on Return of the King with a lot of harp, that would be super-helpful. I looked at the annotated score provided by the movie studio, and listened to several of the 30-second free clips available on iTunes. But I am not any closer to finding one perfect track.

Does the Annie Lennox Oscar-winning song "Into the West" have any harp?

Thanks.

Well this one does:

I have all three LOTR soundtrack CDs. I just listened to "Into the West" and it's a full orchestral accompaniment to the vocals. I didn't notice any parts for harp that particularly stand out.

You might do better looking for adaptations for harp, like in the video Bob posted.

There is some harp in Enya's performance of "May It Be", which is in the Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack, but that's blended in with other strings, too.

This has nothing to do with Skoop's request. I would just like to note how amazing and beautiful I find movie soundtracks these days. Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, Gladiator, Harry Potter -- these all have the most imaginative and beautiful music imaginable. MatiasMom played in a concert featuring music from the movies, and I was spellbound.

Thanks for the responses. I am tasked with finding harp music played by Carolyn Mill on one of the Rings soundtracks - she is the principal harpist for the New Zealand Symphony but not listed by name on the soundtracks because they had to sign waivers or something.

I have a 15-minute piece by here I've already bought that will probably be sufficient. Thanks.
