This monumental work, inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's literary masterpiece, is a challenging and uniquely rewarding composition for the advanced concert band. Johan de Meij's work was awarded the Sudler Prize for composition in 1990 and continues to receive important performances yearly. After 35 years of its first performance, composer Johan de Meij has given the work a thorough revision of his first symphony. He made significant changes in the instrumentation, articulations & dynamics, added parts for cello, harp, 2nd oboe & contrabass clarinet, and created new layout and look of score & parts and score cover. Each of the five movements is also available separately. (Grade 5).
