Sibelius at the Pelennor

I was listening tp the radio last night and found another classical piece to match a scene from 'ROTK'

The appearance of the Rohirrim at dawn and the subsequent cavalry charge could again have been orchestratd by Sibelius, this time by the powerful Intermezzo from the 'Karelia Suite'.

At a risk of sounding hackneyed, the coronation of Aragorn could have 'Zadok the Priest' (Handel) as background music.

And finally, if another film theme had to be used, the Ents' breaching of the Isengard dams and the flooding of Saruman's workshops would have just had to have used Eric Coates' Dambusters March.
