Customer Reviews of Music Inspired By J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings
My Favorite Music CD! I know that nobody that wrote a review, liked. Well I love it. I will say this. It is not music for people who don't like fast, upbeat music, will not like it. It is very beautiful, even though they didn't stay strict to the poems. it is very beautiful. I am music, even though totally great,this music does not sond out of tune! My favorite is Fog on barrow-downs. But i also like them all. The coolest thing ever is that the sound of fireworks in Gandalf's fireworks sound like they are zooming over your head and the sound of horses hooves galloping sound so real in Riders of theoden. I love music. It may not be written by howard shore, but it's fantastic. The singers did a spectacular job and so did the flutest/flutests.
Not that bad, in my opinion
There are a couple tracks that I'm not too happy with, such as "May it Be" and "Aniron", which were simply done far better on the Fellowship of the Ring Soundtrack by Enya, and "Fog on the Barrow-Downs", which has some good moments, but is completely ruined by the out of tune piccolo (At least, I pretty sure it's a piccolo, or else a flute or a recorder.)
Nonetheless, I really like some of the tracks, such as "Sing Hey," "I Sang of Leaves of Gold," "Ever On and On Goes the Road," "Annon Edhellen" and "Bilbo's Song", which features a really nice saxophone solo. I also quite like the men's vocals in "Gandalf" and "Riders of Rohan," which are delightful, in my humble opinion. Those seem to be closer to the heart of Professor Tolkien's works, as they are done in the style of old Gregorian chants, which was the kind of music Tolkien imagined with many of his poems in the text.
I like that they classify it as music INSPIRED by the Lord of the Rings, rather than as Middle Earth Music, where many of the songs simply wouldn't fit.
Overall, some things a bit clumsy, but not a bad album. I got my copy at Wal-Mart for eight dollars, and I think it was worth it in some cases. But feel free to have your own opinion on it.
I'm gonna die!
...I know whether or not something is music or not; let me just say that the only songs I actually listen to are: 1- Sing Hey, 4- I Sang of Leaves of Gold, and 5- Ever on and on Goes the Road...Too much Modern-earth and not enough Middle-earth.
