I am a Lord of the Rings fan (or addict, some might say.) I have long been a fan of J.R.R. Tolkien as well as any Fantasy reading material. My collection of Dragonlance books is worth a lot of money (based on what I paid for the books originally, of course.) In the meantime, I have also been a fan of David Arkenstone for some time and have several of his CD's. Recently, my husband purchased this CD as a birthday gift for a friend. So I immediately requested that it be added to my list of things I wanted for my birthday.
It is called a "powerful musical portrait of Middle Earth" and I agree wholeheartedly. It is excellent! It really can "transport you to Middle Earth." If you like an emotive listening experience with traditional orchestral instruments as well as ethnic acoustic instrumentation, you will love this!!
