My Big Score: Episode 1, "The Return of the King w/ Sarah Shachat"

Welcome to a new show where the creators you love talk about the film scores they love. Welcome to My Big Score. In our first episode, Chris sits down with writer Sarah Shachat (Wolf 359, Unseen) to discuss Howard Shore's monumental score for The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003). Symphonic movie-making, which piece Sarah used as her pump-up music during college, which beacon of Gondor is the best, an extended discussion of Shelob's lair, and much more mark our discussion of one of the most storied scores of the 21st century. My Big Score was created, hosted, and edited by Christopher Dole Show theme composed by Erik Jourgensen Show art by Chandler Candela Social media consultant Ellie Warren Subscribe to My Big Score on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, or your podcatcher of choice!
