As a French Horn player and a lifelong nerd, this is the video I've been waiting for. My life is complete.
❤I played trombone! I would have loved to have played that sequence with the Rohirrum crashing into the hordes of Mordor!😂❤
this is the climax of your life Fellow Nerd ! Enjoy! Heck if ya don't blow your own horn who will?
Where abouts in France? 😶
My favorite part of Howard Shore's score was the Lighting of the Beacons in The Return of the King, when Shore gives the main theme to the low brass (tubas, euphoniums), which can only mean one thing-- what you are about to see will be utterly EPIC!
French horn is my favorite instrument, nothing cuts to the soul quite like it.
Gimli blowing the Horn of Helm's Deep still gives me chills to this day. That may be my favorite scene in cinema.
The horn of helm hammerhand shall sound in the deep one last time
Gimli's lung capacity is astounding
"And Debbie."
Makes me smile every time.
"With that he seized a great horn from Guthláf his banner-bearer, and he blew such a blast upon it that it burst asunder. And straightway all the horns in the host were lifted up in music, and the blowing of the horns of Rohan in that hour was like a storm upon the plain and a thunder in the mountains."
This is one of the moments that gives me goosebumps. There's a video on youtube of Tolkein reading this passage and its beautiful
"And they sang as they slew."
That whole passage gives me goosebumps every time.
There's nothing like a majestic horn to prepare you for an upcoming battle.
Hype
I always liked heavy metal music! But a horn would be an early version of it! I'm glad most people don't have to really battle for life and death everyday anymore, but there are ones on our planet that still do tell that is going. We can never truly call ourselves. Civilized
Next to Theodens speech, I'd agree with you. Lol
Phallus malice
@@dragonsized 🤣🤣🤣nice
The horn of the Haradrim at the Battle of Pelenor Fields is my favorite sounding one! Though I liked Bombur's horn at Erebor before the Battle of the Five Armies too!
We can still see the Rohirrim coming over the hill.
I was going to comment: Was the horn of Erebor not canon? I didn't see it here
Fax
Even just talking about the horn call at the arrival of the Rohirim gives me goosebumps.
Excellent video!!
Minor nitpick, I hope I'm not being untoward: When speaning of one of the Valar, the singular form is Vala- the Vala Oromë, the Vala Tulkas, etc.; when it's them as a group, its Valar, and this rule applies to the Maiar and Eldar (Melian the Maia, the Elda Finwë).
And Merry changed the note to the great horn-cry of Buckland: " FEAR! FIRE! FOES! AWAKE! FIRE! FOES! AWAKE!"
Oh, right. Fatty Bolger (or more likely the neighbor he ran to) blew that call much earlier in the book, didn't he?
I’ve got images of Boromir blowing his horn every morning while travelling with the fellowship and everyone getting fed up with it!!! 😂
🤔I used to have the Elven horn as an alarm sound on the phone, but lost it when I switched phones
Just finishing watching lord of the rings and then a video gets posted less than 5 minutes later. Day can't go any better
The horn of Helm Hammerhand will sound in the deep. One. Last. Time
In the ride of the Rohirrim chapter when Theoden blows into the horn to charge so hard it bursts I get goosebumps every time.
“The horn of Helm Hammerhand shall sound in the deep one last time!" - Théoden the 17th King of Rohan
"And in that very moment, away behind in some courtyard of the city, a cock crowed. Shrill and clear he crowed, recking nothing of war nor of wizardry, welcoming only the morning that in the sky far above the shadows of death was coming with the dawn.
And as if in answer there came from far away another note. Horns, horns, horns, in dark Mindolluin's sides they dimly echoed. Great horns of the north wildly blowing. Rohan had come at last.”
chills. maybe it's so interconnected with the film but hearing a horn give the witch king pause, the light of the dawn, hundreds of riders advancing slowly over that hill, still gives me chills, whether i see it on the screen or read the words.
See, this is just proof of how good the lore is. Even the horns have history.
Maybe you can do speeches next time. Theoden's always sends shivers down the spine.
Am I the only one who actually started sobbing at the end? The Riders arriving to aid Gondor, marching head first into a hopeless battle to aid their ancient bretheren when all seems lost? Damn, truly powerful stuff.
I know. I've read the trilogy probably 30 times or more over a long lifetime, and I still tear up at that scene.
The horn of Erebor scene in the movies was amazing. The shock it caused in the orks was fantastic
Got chills from this video, especially the ending 👏🏻
You were meant for this. This was a good video. This is one of the best I've ever listened to of yours or any!!! Thank you for bringing that world to us
As for a non-canon horn: I really like the Horn of Harad, as heard in The Return of the King film. It's as resonant and grand in its way as any other horn of Men, but it also has a metallic quality that makes it somewhat ominous. It appears to be partially made of gold, and I think there may be some other metal in it as well. It would be cool if a Haradrim chieftain were to use a horn made of mumak ivory. That would make the Horn of Gondor look like a child's toy trumpet.
What a fantastic storytelling! I found myself thrusting my fist in the air while driving my car and listening to this story. Thank you!
It is very interesting that in Middle-earth the sounds of these horns can be heard from miles away. I feel that in a universe created with music, there may be a connection between the transmission and range of the sound coming out of the horns and its perception by the target people.
That was one new eye-opener from my last read-through of LotR - how many times horns are used throughout the book and how they accompany various deeds
Cool topic for a video. Great job as always, Matt!
I would love to see a video on the liberation of the shire!
You made no reference to what I think may be the best use of an unnamed horn in LotR. King Théoden at the Battle of the Pelennor Fields: [bold text is my emphasis]
At that sound the bent shape of the king sprang suddenly erect. Tall and proud he seemed again; and rising in his stirrups he cried in a loud voice, more clear than any there had ever heard a mortal man achieve before:
_Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden!_
_Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter!_
_spear shall be shaken, shield shall be splintered,_
_a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!_
_Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!_
*With that he seized a great horn from Guthláf his banner-bearer, and he blew on it such a blast that it burst asunder.* And straightaway all the horns in the host were lifted up in music, and the blowing of the horns of Rohan in that hour was like a storm upon the plain and a thunder in the mountains.
_Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!_
Your work is truly awesome. Could you make videos about the Red Book and the Oath of Feanor and its consequences? It would be amazing
This is really great. That part about Ulmo's horns was completely new to me.
Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Fell deeds awake, fire and slaughter! Spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
This was beautiful. Truly. Great work as always my man.
Just wanted to check in on the newest video and say this is my favorite YT channel out there. Much love for the videos man! Also enjoying your Return to Moria content. Would love to see a "Top Duels" of Middle Earth video sometime in the future! Best,
Graham
One of the most beautiful videos I have watched. Thank you
Nice work dude thanks
Interesting that Tolkien had a February 30th. Absolutely Amazing Work, Matt. The Master would be Proud. For real
As always, an incredibly good job. Thanks for the quality work. Where do the musics in the vids come from?
You left out that Théoden blew on a horn so hard that it burst before the charge at Minas Tirith.
Fantastically done! There was a small part of me that you would use the actual sounds of horns from the films. It would have been a nice touch.
My favorite horn-tone is still Rohan's with the Elves horn & Hornburg's a tie close second and Erebor's horn as my runner-up.
The Greatest of Horns that shook the Multiverse? Miles Davis
Thank you as always for the awesome video!
Is there any way to know which music you use as background soundtrack?
I see you reference artists for the artworks you use but I can’t find any list of tracks for the music.
Again, thank you so much and let’s keep needing out 😉
Your list was _almost_ complete. You neglected my favorite horn in all of cinema: the one atop the Lonely Mountain (Erebor) blown by Bombur during the Battle of Five Armies. 😂
When are you going to do an Ecthelion video? Also a long video about the greatest warriors in Tolkeins world would be amazing!
Which is scarier, Helm Hammerhnad blowing his horn in the wither at night or the Ewoks blowing their horns before coming after you in the Battlefront game (multiplayer)
The greatest horns of middle earth are the ones on Boromir’s helmet in the Bakshi film 🤣
Rohan had come at last ❤
What a way to end the video
Nice, just finished reading unfinished tales and this pops up.
Hello Nerd of the rings! I want to ask when you will upload the series where you unbox collectible figurines and also when you will upload your adventure from New Zealand? And also a video idea: I recommend you take a tour of your nerd cave. Greetings from Bulgaria🧙
I'll be releasing my interview with Philippa Boyens on Tuesday! :) Still working on edits for a lot of NZ stuff, but hoping to start pumping out collectibles next week as well!
You guys gonna do a video on lands outside of middle earth , Beleriand, Numenor and Valinor ?
God bless you and your work sir. Respect from Croatia Europe 💛💛💛😎😎😎😇😇😇
Horn of the Helm Hammer hand is my all time favourite. The sound tracks are so good as well, especially the last one. Are they from the LOTR movies?
Damn i love this channel
The greatest horns in Middle-Earth were Herb Albert and the Imladris Brass. They used to sellout packed concerts in Dale, Lothlorien, The Gray Havens, etc. and even played a historic concert at Barad Dur during the Watchful Peace with Sauron joining them onstage for a rousing rendition of "Ringfingers."
And when the hope of men seemed dashed to the last and it's strength returning too late, the protector of men sent by the servants of Illuvatar himself stood to halt evil at the gate.
Amazing ending…a good idea for a video might be the siege of Minas Tirith or Osgiliath
I’ve always found it weird that Tolkien never created a calendar system, considering all of the days of our week are all based off of different gods, I find it kind of sad that the characters don’t use like Ulmday, Manday, or Tulkday.
He did, though. Read the LOTR appendices, and you'll find multiple calendar systems with names native to the languages of that world. They got translated in the main text for our ease of understanding.
Thanks!
Thank YOU for your generous Super!! Much appreciated!
just imagine if during the battle of helms deep, when the horn was blow the uruk hai would have seen a ghostly figure of helm hammer hand standing tall in the door just seconnds before theoden charge with the few survivors
Horn of Gondor and the Horn of Helm Hammerhand are my favorites.
Well with all the kids Samwise has I imagine his horn works pretty well😏
That's what she said.
its funny, just watched the whole trilogy with my family and finished RoTK tonight. and saw you had a new vid up! Thanks! Do you have anything discussion Gandalf and why he didn't face the Witch King?
He did face the Witch-King, at the broken gate. The Witch-King turned away after hearing the horns, to supervise the altered battle. Gandalf didn't follow him because of Pippin stopping him to tell him about Denethor getting ready to burn Faramir.
The thing that surprised me most this episode was hearing there's a 30 February in Middle Earth 😂
That moment in the films when Gandalf is confronted in Minas Tirith by the Witch King, and all hope seems lost...
...and then, suddenly, a strange horn blows in the distance...
20 years later, that moment still gives me chills!
This is one of those videos no one knew we wanted. *insert the mouth of Sauron* But we did Gandalf uhagh… we did.
Can you do a video on why there wasn’t a representative from Rohan at the council of Elrond
I’ve always wondered that
I'm sure they would have been welcomed, but no one from Rohan had reason to go so far.
“That is no Orc horn!” 🎉
I wonder, did any of if the named and notable Orcs have any important horn, maybe one with some dark fear-inducing sound? Seems like something he would do. I remember in the films the Uruk'Hai used them pretty frequently, the big guy on the rock who commenced the battle of Helm's Deep🎉
I was gonna ask about February 30th but someone beat me to it. Interesting!
9:58 February 30th? Interesting.
11:41 to 12:01 Now THERE'S a holiday made to celebrating, real and true!
Horns worth remembering! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🤲🏻🤲🏻
The scene in LOTR the twin towers extended edition when Boromir leads the assault to retake Osgiliath was one of my favorite scenes. Horn of Boromir 100%.
No greater horn is there, then the horn of Helm Hammerhand.
The Horn of Valere from Wheel of Time.
The magical horn from Narnia.
The Emperor's Horn from Magic in the Imperium.
The Longhorns from Texas...
You name it, there's a horn for every occasion.
Was Boromir’s horn ever repaired and used again?
There's "February 30, 3019 TA"? How many months and days are there in the Tolkienverse?
Shoutout to Foghorn Leghorn
LETS GOOOO!
What about fingolfin's horn?
Hello Nerd Of The Rings. I had a suggestion. What if morgoth won?
He did win. This is a the timeline where the evil he introduced into the world wins and persists for ever. That's why it is called Arda Marred. And all the elvish and mannish realms that opposed him, he destroyed utterly. He won. He conquered everything. It's because he won that he was banished; he was just winning too much.
And even then, all the evils he sowed were further continued by Sauron and will always pollute the world even after Sauron's time until Arda is remade.
@@doigt6590 No, he did not win. He first wanted to conquer Arda and failing that, destroy it. He failed at both. Despite Arda being marred, much goodness and light remained in the world. And when Arda is remade, the defeat of Morgoth and Sauron will be complete.
@@istari0 He did conquer all that was in Arda that he wanted. Even the silmaril that he lost, he regarded it as a good investment for the destruction of his enemies and didn't regret this loss. As for wanting to destroy Arda, I don't think that has ever been his goal ever and I'd be curious if you could point me to the book in which this is stated and where in that book I can find it.
@@doigt6590 Melkor entered Arda with the intent to rule all of it as it says in the Valaquenta: "For he coveted Arda and all that was in it, desiring the kingship of Manwe and dominion over the realms of his peers." At the time of the War of Wrath, all he truly controlled was Beleriand, which was only a part of the continent of Middle-Earth and had some level of power in other parts of the continent.
It wasn't until after the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, which marked the defeat of the Elves and their Edain allies, that the surviving Fëanorians, in their oath-filled madness, attacked their fellow Elves to try and retrieve the Silmaril that Beren and Lúthien had taken. Had Eärendil and Elwing not succeeded in their mission (with an assist from Ulmo), the war would have been over soon and Morgoth would have gotten the Silmaril back.
Concerning your question regarding Morgoth's goals, see Morgoth's Ring, Myths Transformed, section VII.
@0 Your arguments are sound and backed by evidence. I thought he had had changed his mind about wanting all of Arda, but perhaps that was merely a pretense as he discovered it wouldn't be possible to rule Aman nor the Valar. If he could, he would in other words. Thanks!
Galdriel, Arwen and Eowyn 🙂
There was this rhinoceros from Harad who could best any of them.
"until you stand upon the borders of your own land, an dire need be upon you".
Huh.
Hi
What if Farmer Maggot caught the hobbits?
You know how they say every story written is a rip off of Shakespeare? If true, what Shakespeare piece is LOTR???
Yes! Comment for the algorithm
Horn of Rohan. Eomer.
I read that wrong for a second 😂
I just noticed how you say roof 😂😂 no hate im just canadian
Horn of erebor
wow, this is the earliest ive been
🌞
Undoubtedly the greatest horn was the one Finwe gave to Miriel in that one night of passion when Feanor was conceived.
FORTH EORLINGAS!!!!!!!❤❤❤📯🐎🗡🛡
Horn if Hel Hammerhand.
The greatest horn in Tolkiens world:
The horn Beren had for Lúthien.
No….why….
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAWR
😍😍😍😍👌
You forgot to mention Aragorn's horn the first time he saw Arwen...
Can u so Caranthir please
Disappointing video. Theoden took a horn from his banner-man and blew it so hard it exploded in his hand. It's one of the most memorable parts of the book, yet nobody ever mentions it.
Let's pour one out for this nameless horn.
February 30🤔
Indeed! In Middle-earth, each month has 30 days, plus some days outside the normal calendar.
Wow that is another thing that I get to know from your videos
