The Wraiths attack the hobbits on Weathertop while Shore develops his Mordor themes in d-minor, slowly building a crescendo as the hooded villains move in for the kill. Even timpani get in on the action, presenting heavy melodic phrases from the Threat of Mordor. UNUSED CONCEPT: When Frodo places the Ring on his finger and experiences his vision in the Shadow World, Shore introduces a tangle of aleatoric woodwinds, strings and bowed cymbals that was replaced by sound effects in the final film.
