Lord of the Rings Music & Ambience | Rivendell, Magical Sunrise (3rd Edition)

I'm 55 years old. I read The Hobbit when I was 13. Read The Lord of the Rings three times before I was 15 - all 3 books, in paperback because that was way before the internet or even computers. I saw the first crappy attempt to televise The Hobbit - an animated dismal failure. Then there was Ralph Bakshi's first and only attempt to render The Fellowship of the RIng and the first half of the Two Towers into one animated feature film which actually showed in cinemas. It was pretty good.But NEVER could I have dreamed that someone would come along and do this story SO MUCH JUSTICE as Peter Jackson has done. The entire realm of MIddle Earth, Gandalf, Frodo, Aragorn, the Elves, the Orcs and Goblins - all vividly portrayed with real actors/actresses - no animation. Maybe just a bit of CG, but accompanied by the finest, most moving, wonderful musical score!After all three of Peter Jackson's films came out and of course qualified and nominated for 11 Academy Awards - guess what? It won ALL 11 Academy awards! I have that event recorded.Never in cinematic history has one story captivated the International film viewing public as this story has!This music is a blessing. Let us not forget the roots of this wonderful music, the story behind it, and the brilliant author behind the story: J.R.R. Tolkien!P.S. Frodo lives!

“Saruman believes that it is only great power that can hold evil in check. But that is not what I have found. I found it is the small things - everyday deeds of ordinary folk - that keeps the darkness at bay. Simple acts of kindness and love. Why Bilbo Baggins? Perhaps it is because I am afraid…and he gives me courage.” - Gandalf

How can you miss a place you've never been to? Because I'm feeling so nostalgic.

Home is behind The world ahead And there are many paths to tread Through shadow To the edge of night Until the stars are all alight Mist and shadow Cloud and shade All shall fade All shall Fade

"Such is the virtue of the land of Rivendell that soon all fear and anxiety was lifted from their minds"

"Courage is found in unlikely places."

Visited Rivendell last week, car park was full so decided to detour to Rohan.

I put down my LOTR books a while ago because I got buried in school work. But maybe, now that my work is more shallow, it’s time I return home to complete my journey. They’ve been waiting on me for a long time.

My heart aches for Rivendell.

I am 62 years old, I read the Lord of ring until today once a year and how the elves live in Middle-earth and at the same time are related to the west

Into the west hits so hard everytime

Despite the food was terrible, clearly remembering that place as magnificent at Erebor Quest... may Durin bless them...

Anything Middle Earth is just my comfort place, especially Elvish stuff. So peaceful, so beautiful.

12:53 - The music that played when Frodo had to say goodbye to his friends and depart with Gandalf on the eleven ship. Oh the sweetness but ohhh the sadness and how they mixed so well in that scene.

When I die, if I haven't been too bad, I'm pretty sure paradise will look and sound like that 😊

doubting that anyone would see this, but keep going. you're doing great ヅ

the music is perfect the background is perfect lotr is perfect rivendell is perfect i love it😍

Everytime I need peace, I come back to this. It's my safe place since 4 years. Thank you. I never feel more at peace than with those sounds.

i just can't stop listening to these

This is my absolute favorite! Rivendell is so magical, peaceful, enchanting and perfect! Imagine sitting there while watching a beautiful sunrise, feeling a fresh breeze coming from the mountains when suddendly a tall, gorgeous elf with beautiful silver eyes and dark hair flowing gently in the wind, approaches you, greets you in a soft voice and asks who you are, then sits down next to you and tells you stories of old, from times long gone, while you look into that breathtaking and noble face, being hopelessly lost for words.
