* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjeG2En9bHQ "The Steward of Gondor"]] starts out with a heartbreaking melody as Faramir leaves to face the enemy, knowing he will not survive. Then we get to hear Pippin sing a beautiful song to Denethor. The song soon begins to grow more ominous as we watch Faramir about to get killed by the orcs.
* The heroic and marvelous theme of [[https://youtu.be/afY_Srf4xjk?t=52s Minas Tirith.]]
* The [[https://youtu.be/ZgJYNveHOYU?t=3m50s Lighting of the Beacons]] is an amazing track all the way throughout. When Pippin lights the first beacon, the song transitions into an chaotic and exciting melody like a wildfire spreading. The music then bursts into the confident and glorious theme of Gondor.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNS2pCVKi4I "The White Rider"]] starts in a dramatic fashion as Gandalf makes his return, it then transitions into the lovely theme of Shadowfax. The theme also makes a grand reappearance when Gandalf along with the forces of Eomer come to [[BigDamnHeroes aid in the Battle of Helms Deep.]]
* The track [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jJnyyta07k "Return of the King"]] is a long yet heartwarming song that plays when Frodo is reunited with the Fellowship, Aragorn is crowned King, and the Hobbits return to the shire. During Aragorn's AwesomeMomentOfCrowning we hear a lovely elvish song sung by Aragorn followed by a powerful rendition of the Hobbit's theme when everyone bows down to Frodo and company.
* The music which plays after the army of the West is surrounded in ''The Return of the King'': The Black Gate has opened. Aragorn, the fellowship (minus Sam and Frodo, of course), and the entire military might of men are surrounded. Everyone's looking freaked out. Then, Aragorn simply says, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jc2j2cjoz4 "For Frodo,"]] and ''the'' most epic choral rendition of the Fellowship theme kicks in as our heroes charge into battle.

It then ends with a sad choir when Gandalf falls to the Balrog.
* The ominous, pants-wetting build-up to the Balrog's first appearance. Apparently a bunch of Maori rugby players chanting in Khuzdul (Dwarvish) sounds just like ''the Choirs of Hell.''

* The music that plays during the Goblin Chase is a mix of deep sounding drums and heavy chanting that rivals the Bridge of Khazad-dûm scene in ''Fellowship of the Ring''.
* The first appearance of the Ring in ''Film/TheHobbit'' is heralded by the ''Lord of the Rings'' theme, played on a few wavering strings. Not a super bombastic part of the score, but an absolutely prefect moment that sends chills down your spine.

It plays over a similar credit sequence that ended the ''LOTR'' trilogy with each character getting a sketch. Listen closely and you hear that it clearly samples "Into the West" from the end of ''Film/ReturnOfTheKing.'' But whereas "Into the West" had a definite feeling of "This is the end" about it, "The Last Goodbye" somehow conveys the notion of "This was just the beginning" and just makes you want to pull down ''Film/TheFellowshipOfTheRing'' and start watching even if you've just gone through nine hours of ''Film/TheHobbit.''

It starts with a grand fanfare of the fellowship, and turns more ominous as they are pursued by the Balrog. The chants combined with the exciting music create an epic song. It then ends with a sad choir when Gandalf falls to the Balrog.
