From what I understand, it's a symphony that Howard Shore wrote from the film music.

Some are missing We also heard the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, which wasn't on the list, and we also got to hear bits of the score that didn't make the soundtrack- like the "Shadowfax" music.

Dear Howard Shore - I am greatly ashamed, I do hope that you excuse my absence and tour the U.S. again! And if you do not...may I burn in the very fires Angband.
