The first soundtrack I'd like to deal with is the one of the lord of the rings.
It was composed by Howard Shore. As he knew for what a great movie he had to make the music, he spent for months of conducting research for material. The final result of this long time, working closely together with Peter Jackson an hos co writers, was a masterpiece of music, that marked a turning point in the history of movie soundtracks.
I personally really love this soundtrack, as it greatly underlines the action in the film. Somehow it sucks you directly into what you are seeing, making you actively feel with the characters. Some of my favourite scenes where the music is dominating the atmosphere appears to you when the camera shows Isengard and the Orks working or when the fellowship is in Moria, trying to reach the Bridge of Khazad-Dum.
Nearly all the battle scenes have a great musical background.
