About This Item
New. <p>Available for the first time in 25 years, this book of songs and sheet music, a collaboration between J. R. R. Tolkien and the composer Donald Swann, will delight Tolkien fans everywhere as the book to stand beside their copies of Lord of The Rings, the essays, poems and calendars. Includes a bonus CD containing performances of all the songs.</p> <p>In this song book the composer Donald Swann gives Tolkien characters Bilbo, Treebeard, Sam Gamgee and Tom Bombadil tunes for their ballads of the road.</p> <p>Professor Tolkien approved of this and added a tune of his own, decorated the book in his own hand and added a glossary of Elvish terms and lore that appears nowhere else.</p>
Reviews
On Jul 30 2007, KnC Books said:
The poems of J.R.R. Tolkien, set to music by Donald Swann. Contains music for both piano and guitar.
The characters in Tolkien's books are often singing odd bits of rhyme throughout the story, leaving us to imagine how the tune might go. Here they are set down and put to music for us, at least for those who can play an instrument. The book is illustrated with elvish script and runes from Tolkien.
A companion CD was also made.
