Скачать или смотреть Stephen Oliver - Intro (from BBC Radio's adaptation of "The Lord of the Rings").

I've always loved Stephen Oliver's music for the classic 1981 BBC Radio dramatisation of JRR Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. This kind of English pastoral music is in my blood, ever will be.

Alas, the soundtrack is only available on previously-owned vinyl LP (unless someone could kindly point me to a CD version which has NOT merely been taken from a vinyl copy, as with the BBC re-issue of 2002. Doubtless, they either destroyed or "lost" the master tapes).

From Wikipedia: " [Inter alia] Stephen Oliver composed the score for the thirteen-hour radio dramatization of Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in 1981. The work combined a main theme with many sub-themes, all composed within the English pastoral tradition".

I don't monetise my Channel, but many people, including myself, hold this BBC adaptation in the highest esteem, so if you are interested in buying all 13 hours of it, here's a link to the boxed set of 13 CD's at Amazon UK:
