I was 13 at the time, and that was probably the first time I can remember crying at the beauty of that scene. The music is on another level of epic, and the beautiful shots of New Zealand are out of this world. I hope they have a 25 year screening of TFOTR, TTT, and TROTK in 2026, 2027, and 2028 respectively.
I just don't get why there are people like you who think that the A is better. I mean, the Em makes the transition much, much more epic than the A. Furthermore, I think that this version has too much major chords in general, it sounds too "simple" imo. But like I said, thats just my opinion.
Nexus 2500 The A just gives so much strenght to the Gondor’s theme that follows in my opinion. I think is much more epic with that beautiful high note giving hope to Gondor.
Actually, from what I read in a comment from a person who had a copy of the original music sheets, the first version had a "Em", but for some reason it was changed to an "A" for the theaters' version, then they recovered the original for the extended version. And which is better depends on taste. In my opinion both sound well, but the A is probably too strong, which makes the next part sound a bit weaker than it should, while the Em provides more tension and a more balanced transition.
@@spacejesus1266 I think it's probably because there's a famous Spanish youtuber who analyzes movie OS who explained why in his opinion the A is better. Now there's a lot of people (mostly Spanish-speaking) taking his opinion as unique truth.

I personaly prefer the A than the Em for the transition, but the recording of the track with the Em is waaaaay better, especially what reffers the game between the main theme and the speed high notes of the violins making the harmony (chills)
If my sources are correct, this is the original from the theatrical release. The one we all know was made for the extended version. One of the most notable differences is that before landing on the Gondor theme on 1:08, there's this awesome dominant chord which was replaced by a subdominant. That change makes the transition, in the opinion of some, way less awesome.
Curiously enough, the version of this soundtrack that comes from the short version sounds better. In the long version, just before the theme of Gondor kicks in, the last note of that crescendo sounds a note or two lower than in the short version, making it less epic. This comes from the short version, the only positive point for not having 11 hours of pure joy.
Totally agree. When I watch this scene in the movie, the music just doesn’t quite hit the same feels. This version is so much more condensed, and of course contains that high A note before the Gondor theme that everyone seems to be talking about.
This version from the original theatrical release. In the extended edition, this cue has different chords and is not as inspiring. This one is the superior version.
Asa sa revenim majoritatea conturilor au cercul băgat în cont fara culoare cum am eu la email pus nu pot sa mai umblu sus la culoare nici să mai deschid de loc platforma că atunci am închiso eu
Muite am văzut acolo și este un șarpe gigantic care locuieste in apartament sa nu cumva sa fie și o spanzuratoare pusă în tavan că mandra si ea făcea pași acea in spate
Și era o spânzuratoare băgată în tavan care a fost dată jos de mine că mi sa dat sa fac o spânzurat că o coarda și ăia am găsito în apartamentul acela și mai era inca una când stăteai pe fotoliu cu picioarele sus îți erau legate picioarele
Nu știu cine a mai intrat acolo în apartament asta se afla pe parcurs și mie mia arata că a fost unul macelarit in camera și un animal mare la atacat acolo în camera și ala a fost scos cu sacul de acolo din apartament de omu era aproape decapitat și era unul slăbuț și era brunet
Asa am aflat că miraturile aveau cinesti ce aveau în spate la platforma și ce ascund ei de fapt direct ban miam luat că Iam descoperit pe acolo ce fac ei de fapt
Asa deci proprietar care deti acel apartament vezi că ai o treabă săptămână aceste și îmi trăsniți prin soramea Alexandra actele cum ți-am cerut să le faci
Și după ce rezolvam treabă vedem ce se întâmplă acolo în apartament că este unul dubios rău de tot o sa îmi trebuiasca și o lupa magica acolo și ceva masca magica sa o am acolo cu mine și o bata magica
It was actually used for the theatrical release. For the extended version (and the versions we watch today) it was changed a little bit; for example, some chords right before 1:07
Așa că băgați mare la banca saptamana asta sa îmi depuneți ce îmi aparține daca va mâncat să îmi puneți piedici peste tot acum e rândul meu sa că iau ce îmi apartine mie
One of the best visual scenes in the movies especially with this music playing gives me chills every time "Hope is kindled"

1:05 That “A” just before Gondor’s theme gives me life... I just don’t get why they changed it to a “Em” in the extended version

Most epic scene in the history of cinema, I don't care if you think avenger or anything else is more epic, you're wrong
Avenger? Haha get that kiddie shet out of here.

This and the Rohan theme are some of my favorite themes especially in action or fantasy, I get chills

Gracias por ese La Mayor // Thanks for that A Major
Es bellisimo, le da un toque tan epico a la entrada del tema de gondor
You, yes you!
Admit it, you came here for 1:08, didn't you??!!
Oh I did! Man third age is the best lotr I've ever played
Yes yes yessssss!!!
Ronin 28 you caught me
Yeah
came for the 1:05 actually xD
I just had 1 minute and 51 seconds of goosebumps....
This scene is one of the best commercials for New Zealand. If the landscape could speak it would sound like this did
Goosebumps, every single time.
It's physically impossible for me to not get chills even thinking about this scene!
Diese Musik ist der Wahnsinn. Erinnert mich an Richard Wagner.
The return of Aragorn as King!
OMG THE FINAL NOTE IS THE RIGHT ONE HOLY SHIT I'VE SEARCHING THE REAL THEME FOR LIKE 15 AND I WAS DEPRESSED OMGOMGOMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
1:06
It's a La, but in the movies they changed it for a Mi or a Fa, I can't remember.
A LaM
i feel u bro
I came here looking for it too, it hurts me to hear the other version xd
When ur running down routing units with cavalry in Empire: Total War. Just epic... :)
Still remember when i watched this scene in the cinema
I personaly prefer the A than the Em for the transition, but the recording of the track with the Em is waaaaay better, especially what reffers the game between the main theme and the speed high notes of the violins making the harmony (chills)
It's exactly the same opinion that I have about this soundtrack.
The most epic S.O.S. call ever period
Hope is kindled. Oaths you have sworn now fulfill them all for Lord and land. For we ride for Gondor and war.
SUCH A GREAT THEME--MAYBE ONE OF THE BEST FROM THOSE MOVIES (IS THIS ONE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT?) GIVES ME CHILLS.
It is slightly different aye

This right here is the definition of fantasy ❤
Who knew 2 minutes of mountain and fire shots could be so epic

this is my favorite song but i like the nazguls march too
so majestic.
I still wonder why this version of the soundtrack was not included in the Extended version of the film.
0:34
normal version: G note. Extended version: A note.
The Beacans! The Beacans of Minas Tirith are lit!
Aproape toate platforma este plina de cercuri magice :))))))))

It’s a shame this version didn’t make it in the films, the 1:08 note is amazing.
In Spanish (Spain) version made it: ua-cam.com/video/7txHnBh0I9Y/v-deo.html Goosebumps
I like the other version, is more EPIC.
I prefer that beautiful A to the Em any day of the week.
Why did they change the violin arpeggiated scale for the DVD and extended versions though?
1:04 FuSiOnnnnnnnnn CoRe!
1:05
WHY DID YOU CHANGE IT FOR THE EXTENDED VERSION? WHY? WHY?
We saw it the first time, chill the fuck out xD
Becouse is better.

WHY DID YOU CHANGE IT FOR THE EXTENDED VERSION? WHY? WHY?
Imagine the music coming to a screeching halt because one guy fell asleep.... then a fast cut to Minas Tirith on fire.
Deci așa asteptat ce am cerut să și se rezolvă saptama asta treabă cu totul că nu am vreme multa
Please, Mr Shore, why on earth did you change this absouletely gorgeous A at 1:05 into that dull Em in the extended edition? WHY??????????

Si cercurile astea nu le are oricine si nu se vad numai pe o parte unde nu poți intra de loc pe platformă
