Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | To illustrate Howard Shore's compositional approach, and Doug Adams's in documenting that approach. This theme is stated to be the "central theme" of the music, repeated at every major event in the progress of the One Ring, the central object of the story. |

The software or website from which the screenshot is taken is copyrighted and not released under a free license, so creation of a free image is not possible. |
Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1) |
Music cannot be fully represented in a text description; nor can the graphic presentation of a book. |
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | This is the only sample of sheet music with orchestration for multiple instruments in the article, indeed the only example of such a thing from Shore's music for The Lord of the Rings anywhere on Wikipedia. |
