One Woman Choir vocal cover of "The Passing of the Elves" by Howard Shore from the film The Lord of the Rings, performed by Psamathes. As a huge LOTR fan, you might have noticed influences from its music in some of my covers. So here's a LOTR cover, at long last! This is one of those covers where I freely recorded the lead vocal without any reference or tempo mapping, and then built the rest of the arrangement around it. The main structure is fairly close to the original, but I used my upper range to fill in some of the pauses and develop the ethereal atmosphere even more. I also used my lower notes instead of an instrument to fill in the low end of the choir, as it was done (as far as I've read) in the original track. Now that I got the DVD from my collection to rewatch the scene from the thumbnail, all that's left to do is a good ol' LOTR marathon :)

🎤 Lyrics:
Fanuilos heryn aglar
Rîn athar annún-aearath
Calad ammen i reniar
Mi 'aladhremmin ennorath!
A Elbereth Gilthoniel
I chîn a thûl lin míriel
Fanuilos le linnathon
Ne ndor haer thar i aearon
A elin na gaim eglerib
Ned în ben-anor trerennin
Si silivrin ne pherth 'waewib
Cenim lyth thílyn thuiennin
A Elbereth Gilthoniel
Men echenim sí derthiel
Ne chaered hen nu 'aladhath
Ngilith or annún-aearath
