Songs From The Lord Of The Rings

Author of music wrote: "Yes! I am one of the few that have set Tolkien's songs from The Lord Of The Rings to music. There are a great many that have written music and songs inspired by the books, (check it out), but only a small number that have used Tolkien's words. Of these, less than a handful have done a decent number of them. If you wish to hear a full realisation of Tolkien's songs the only commercially available version is that of The Tolkien Ensemble. This is because Tolkien's Estate have a blanket ban on anyone else using his words.
