The Mirrormere (Music and Analysis)

This is a track I've composed for a scene from The Fellowship of the Ring that didn't appear in the movie trilogy. If you haven't seen the original video with the narration by Andy Serkis, I recommend doing so: • Scoring the Unadapted ...

Thanks for watching!
Fun story: As usual this was made with MuseScore 4. As much as I appreciate this free software giving me the opportunity to release decent-sounding scores, the 5:22-5:54 segment almost broke the program. I spent so much time playing around with the key that the program would crash every time I tried to play it (even corrupted the file when I tried to export it), until I finally had to rewrite the whole segment from scratch XD

Thanks for not giving up and rewriting it! Those chimes representing the stars in the text are my favourite part of this composition of yours, it would have been such a waste not hearing them... I also really fancy the nod to the Journey There theme, it sounds so wholesome right before that darker Dwarven choir. Now whenever I re-listen the Complete Recordings, I don't forget to include your compositions from the list. It makes for a richer experience.
