Howard Leslie Shore OC (born October 18, 1946) is a highly acclaimed Canadian composer renowned for his extensive work in film scoring. With a career spanning over 80 films, Shore is perhaps most celebrated for his evocative scores for The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit film trilogies. His contributions to the former earned him three Academy Awards, including one for the original song "Into the West," which he shared with Annie Lennox and Fran Walsh.
Shore also maintains a long-standing and fruitful collaboration with director David Cronenberg, having composed the music for all but one of his films since 1979. This partnership has resulted in some of cinema's most memorable and unsettling soundscapes.
