2003 studio album by The Tolkien Ensemble
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.[ 3] [ 4] [ 5]
