*A.R. Rahman's laptop with 'Lord of the Rings' music missing*
Malaysia Sun
Tuesday 19th June, 2007
(IANS)
A laptop containing new compositions of popular Indian music composer A.R.
Rahman is part of a bag that went missing when he arrived here Monday night
for the theatrical version of 'Lord of the Rings' scheduled for Tuesday
night.
Rahman arrived at the Heathrow airport from Washington after a successful
performance in the US, but was stunned to discover that one of two bags
checked in were missing. The missing bag contains his laptop as well as
designer clothes.
He said as he frantically called British Airways to inquire about his
missing baggage: 'I don't know what to feel, I don't know what to say. I am
very confused. I am disturbed. I have lost my laptop containing the whole
data of my work and music.'
He added that the laptop contained his new compositions as well. He was
supposed to wear the designer clothes for the 'Lord of the Rings' musical.
A spokesman of British Airways told IANS that Rahman should contact the
airline with his details. 'After he contacts us, we will do everything
possible in our power to get the missing bag back.'
The West End production of 'The Lord of the Rings' is scheduled to open
Tuesday evening at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, in Covent Garden.
Based on the hugely popular trilogy of novels by J.R.R. Tolkien, it features
direction by Matthew Warchus, book and lyrics by Shaun McKenna and Matthew
Warchus, and music by Rahman and Varttina with Christopher Nightingdale
Parvez Alam, editor of India-EU Film Initiative, told IANS that 'Lord of the
Rings' is the most expensive musical ever staged outside Las Vegas, and the
first major stage adaptation of Tolkien's classic trilogy.
Rahman's music in collaboration with Varttina, exhilarating choreography,
remarkable staging and stunning design will combine to transform Drury Lane
into Tolkien's Middle-earth in a mesmerising and spectacular theatrical
event featuring an ensemble of over 70 actors, singers and musicians.
Alam said that this was the second musical by Rahman after the success of
Andrew Lloyd Webber's 'Bollywood Dreams'.
Reports say that the adaptation was savaged by many critics when it opened
in Toronto last year. Cut and substantially rewritten, it has cost 25
million pounds to bring it to London, making it the most expensive musical
ever staged outside Las Vegas.
According to reports, the new version was applauded by the audience at a
preview in London.
This follows the 70th anniversary of Tolkien starting to write the trilogy
and the 50th anniversary of the publication of the complete trilogy, 'The
Fellowship of the Ring', 'The Two Towers' and 'The Return of the King'.
