At Dawn In Rivendell is the third album by the Danish group The Tolkien Ensemble. It features songs composed to the lyrics found in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and forms the third part of what was to become a complete musical interpretation of all poems and songs in the book. It is also the first album to feature actor Christopher Lee reciting the spoken poems - something that brought the ensemble to the attention of many internationally.
