General info :
Howard Leslie Shore (born October 18, 1946, Toronto, Ontario, Canada) is a Canadian composer who is notable for his film scores.
He has composed the scores for over 80 films, most notably the scores for The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit film trilogies.
He won three Academy Awards for his work on the first trilogy, with one being for the original song "Into the West", an award he shared with Eurythmics lead vocalist Annie Lennox. He is also a consistent collaborator with director David Cronenberg, having scored all but one of his films since 1979.
Shore has also composed a few concert works including one opera, The Fly, based on the plot (though not his score) of Cronenberg's 1986 film premiered at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris on July 2, 2008, a short piece Fanfare for the Wanamaker Organ and the Philadelphia Orchestra, and a short overture for the Swiss 21st Century Symphony Orchestra. Shore also scored for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the third film of the five-film series.
In addition to his three Academy Award wins, Shore has also won three Golden Globe Awards and four Grammy Awards.
