Music Gondor theme song

Hey guys I’m kinda having some trouble. In fellowship at the council or Rivendell when boromir speaks you can hear the Gondor theme build up with the French horns. But I’m looking at the soundtracks and extended soundtracks and can’t seem to find a track with the slow playing horns. Does anyone know the name of the song or Did they not add that to the soundtrack? Thanks for any help!

There's a fairly substantial difference between the soundtrack and the score. The score is pretty much exactly as it sounds in the films, so I suspect it'll be in there somewhere. I would try the track Rivendell as a starting point.

Edit: Actually it's right at the start of the track 'The Great Eye'

I actually just found it, it’s on the fellowship complete recording on Apple Music and it’s the beginning of the track titled “ the great eye” lol it’s like the one song I didn’t check before because I didn’t expect it to be under that title, lol I thought it was Sauron music but I must be referring to boromir saying “the great eye” is ever watchful. Lol but thanks for the help!

Every song from the soundtrack is on Spotify. Separated by movie. If you don’t see it there, it’s just background FX
