It’s not just the score that the cartoon gets wrong the songs too are wrong. Rosenman really couldn’t have picked a worse six notes to serve as the score’s central motif-especially bad when you think of Howard Shore’s “ Fellowship Theme,” a sequence of perfectly-placed notes, nine of which represent the nine companions. “Of all the worst things that could happen, this is the worst possible thing!” The derivative and upbeat main theme is best described with a quote from My Little Pony: Aside from getting the emotions wrong most of the time, the score is the most clichéd ’70s fantasy score I’ve ever heard, which on its own would have made it unworthy of Tolkien’s work. The orc chanting during the solarized battle at Helm’s Deep was alright (nowhere near as good as the Howard Shore equivalent), but everything else about Rosenman’s score is awful.
