It said that because the LOTR symphony is so popular it is helping out all the symphony orchestras. Classical music doesn't attract enough people but because film music is becoming more popular it is helping out orchestras etc. I think that is really neat.

And the finest example of that was in the newspaper this morning!
Apparently, Howard Shore was quite impressed by the Flemish Radio Orchestra, and therefore invited them over to Hollywood a couple of times.
And now, because of this, they get to play the filmmusic (which will be composed by Mr. Shore) for the new Martin Scorcese movie!
Needless to say that I'm very proud that of all orchestras Howard Shore played with, he liked the Flemish one best;...
