Favourite moment: There we're several epic moments throughout, but I'd say the Bridge of Kazhad Dhum was up there with the most electrifying. @

This was definitely an unforgettable experience. The sheer power and majesty of Howard Shore's masterful composition is truly an amazing thing to experience live, especially accompanying the movie itself.
There were times when the music drowned out the dialogue, although I've absolutely no complaints there, it's more of a bonus really as there was subtitles thoughout, and it's was never meant to be mixed evenly anyway seeing as the primary reason for the show was the music itself.
Can't wait for The Two Towers Next year, especially the for the solo violin led Rohan themes ;)

The LOR films rank as some of my favorite films so to be able to watch Fellowship and hear the well played music at the same time was amazing. The orchestra were superb as were the choir, I can't wait until The Two Towers next year.
The only drawback was our seats, we booked really early once the event was announced and picked row H as we thought that was far back enough from the stage. However we ended up being in the forth row from the stage was only a little incline so couldn't see the full orchestra and choir. Will know better for next year.

I really enjoyed the showing of the Lord of the Rings on Saturday night. The orchestra was fabulous and the music really added to my enjoyment of the film.I really hope they do this again for the other two films.

Had a wonderful evening on saturday at the show. First time in the Grand Canal theatre too which was first class I have to say! The show was absolutely amazing! There was an incredible impact from such a large orchestra and choral groups. I could not recommend this highly enough to both classical music and film fans! It was just brilliant!
Only 2 niggles.. First was that the cinema sound was not great during the scenes without music, it made all the characters sound like they were in an empty room! Second, I felt sorry for the people sitting in the side boxes as they really looked like they were straining to see any of the screen during the show as the screen is set further back from the stage. These did not take from my enjoyment though as obviously the score was the star that evening!!

This was an incredible show. Blew my mind. Was expecting a musical, but hadnt read the catalogue correctly. The film and live score mix is very very effective. Will definitely go to the second instalment next year.

At times you have to remind yourself that the music is live and not simply the volume turned up on the backing track of the movie.
The orchestra itself was over 70 strong, and on top of that you had a full choir. The concert orchestra were simply incredible. Cant recommend this enough.

What a performance! Enjoyed every moment of it. The live orchestra added so much, and yet they were so perfect that at times you forgot they were there. A truly memorable evening - looking forward to The Two Towers in 2012!

I like Lord of The Rings but have only read the book and watched the film once before.
The Orchestra were amazing,the conductor was one of the best that I have seen and they really brought the film to life.
The only downsides were that tickets were a bit too expensive and I think NCH may have been a better venue.

The Grand Canal Theatre was an appropriately beautiful setting for viewing the Lord of the Rings film with a live orchestra and choir. It was great to see the film again and the accompaniment of the on-stage orchestra and choir added hugely to the enjoyment. An amazing experience overall, can't wait for the second film.

The Lord of The Rings concert was a real treat. I'm a big fan of movie soundtrack genre and Howard Shore's score is one of the best in its kind. RTÉ Concert Orchestra, Our Lady's Choral Society and RTÉ Cór na nÓg did an amazing job and whether you're a Tolkien's books' lover or purely interested in a good music, it was an evening to remember. I'm really looking forward to The Two Towers concert and hope to see more of the great movie soundracks being performed live.

The Lord of the Rings is undoubtedly an amazing film. When you pair this with an orchestra and choir, it becomes something else. The music was out of this world and only added to the greatness of The Fellowship of the Ring. It made it become alive and I don't think there was anyone still in their seats when it had finished. I can't wait for the Two Towers in 2012!

I would absolutely recommend this show to young and old... It was fabulous.. My only disappointment was the seating up the back (row N) did not allow for us to see the full screen. We had full view of the orchestra but it was dissapponting the restiricted view tickets even went on sale.
