Forth Eorlingas
This song is the booming music for Theoden's
last charge onto the battlefield. The desperate charge is
brought to an end when Gandalf appears at the top of the
cliff. But he is not alone, he has brought the banished
Rohhirim with him. Their spectacular charge down the immensely
steep cliff is an extremely impressive battle scene and
Shore's music highlights it.
Gandalf's light is able to push back the
front ranks of the Uruk-Hai and allow the Riders to charge
through. It soon turns into a rout, with the Uruks fleeing in
every direction. Most are picked off, but some make it into
Fangorn, only to be destroyed by the trees.
