HOWARD SHORE'S "DOUBT" on [CD]


Howard Shore, the celebrated composer of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, is back with another new project, after a relatively long absence.

The movie, entitled Doubt, is directed by John Patrick Shanley and is set in 1964. It's plot centers on a nun who confronts a priest after suspecting him of abusing a black student. He denies the charges, and much of the play's quick-fire dialogue tackles themes of religion, morality, and authority.

Product Description

Academy Award -winning composer Howard Shore's orginal score to John Patrick Shanley's film Doubt starring Meryl Streep, Philip Symour Hoffman, Amy Adams and Viola Davis. Doubt, a Pulitzer Prize-winning play brought to screen, is a story about the quest for truth, the forces of change, and the devastating consequences of blind justice in an age defined by moral conviction. The score, written for a 17 piece chamber orchestra, features hammered dulcimer, Appalachian dulcimer, harmonium, recorder, Celtic harp, mandolin and Irish bouzouki. "As the winds of political change seep through St. Nicholas in the Bronx, I hope to place you in this cloistered life and ask the question - did he or didn't he?"
