Discuss the music used in movie trailers, <a href=http://audiblebeauty.net/trailers.htm>Lord of the Rings</a> or otherwise.

In the sound that you have under the area that says:

Hobbit Power (teaser trailer music from The Power of One)

What is "The Power of One?" Is it one of the Lord of the Rings trailers or is it referring to music from elsewhere?

My real intent here is to track down the origin of that little snippit and perhaps get a recording of the whole piece. Do you know anything about that?

Good question and I'm happy that I can help!

The Power of One is a movie made in 1992 that takes place in Africa. Haven't seen it all the way through yet myself. The music was by Hans Zimmer. The bit used in the Lord of the Rings teaser trailers is taken specifically from track 12, 'Mother Africa Reprise' at 0:59.

It is fairly common to have music in trailers from other films (another Zimmer one--Gladiator--has made repeat appearences in the last year of trailers). That's why I put such music in the seperate place so people don't think it might be on the actual soundtrack album.

If you really like the sound I created from the trailer arrangement you'll probably like the rest of The Power of One too, really good music. Click for some more info: http://us.imdb.com/Soundtracks?0105159
