| TolkienMovies.com The Tolkien Ensemble and Christopher Lee The Tolkien Ensemble was formed in 1995 and performed its first concert at Gjorslev Castle, Denmark in January 1996. Their goal is to make the first complete musical interpretation of the 70 poems from THE LORD OF THE RINGS by J.R.R. Tolkien. It has never been done before and thanks to the permission of the Tolkien estate they have exclusive rights to use the poems in a musical interpretation. The Tolkien Ensemble has 6 regular members and is becoming a household name in Denmark after playing numerous concerts throughout the country from Concert Halls to Churches and culminating in a prestigious show at Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen with Christopher Lee. They have performed their first concerts in England in J.R.R. Tolkien's own College: Exeter College Oxford, as well as shows in Nottingham and Sheffield. They have also performed at functions for the Tolkien family. The Tolkien Ensemble's CD's AN EVENING IN RIVENDELL, A NIGHT IN RIVENDELL and now the current release AT DAWN IN RIVENDELL are published with the prior permission of HarperCollins Publishers and the full consent of the Tolkien estate making them unique and desirable to fans world-wide. The Tolkien Ensemble has also received Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II of Denmark's permission to use her illustrations of The Lord of the Rings in the CD-layout. AT DAWN IN RIVENDELL features actor Christopher Lee, who also stars as Saruman in THE LORD OF THE RINGS film trilogy. He performs with the ensemble as narrator and works closely with the Ensemble to promote their works in the true spirit of Tolkien and the books. The Tolkien Ensemble & Christopher Lee THE LORD OF THE RINGS-AT DAWN IN RIVENDELL will be available on March 11, 2003. |
