The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. It is a 2012 epic fantasy film co-written and directed by Peter Jackson. It is the first of a three-part film adaptation of the novel The Hobbit (1937) by J. R. R. Tolkien. The film is written by Jackson, his longtime collaborators Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens, and Guillermo del Toro, who originally was chosen to direct the film.

The musical score to “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” was composed by Howard Leslie Shore, a Canadian composer who notable for his film scores. The original motion picture soundtrack album is expected to be released on December 10, 2012. It will be released in both Standard Edition and Special Edition, with both coming in a 2-CD format.

The Geeks of Doom, an independent entertainment website commented that Shore, who recorded the soundtrack at Abbey Road Studios in London, re-used some of the “magisterial musical motifs” from his music for the Lord of the Rings soundtrack, but that he “uses his established themes to launch into a completely original sonic adventure with turns both optimistic and dark, true to the mutual visions of Jackson and Tolkien”.
