[QUOTE="Michie, post: 77621305, member: 628"] A choir of cosplaying elves in Sweden sings and performs lyrical works written in Elvish by J.R.R. Tolkien in the ultimate expression of [I]Lord of the Rings[/I] fandom. Called “Eldandili Fantasy” they actually sing choir pieces from all kinds of fantasy staples, such as [I]World of Warcraft, [/I]and [I]The Witcher, [/I]but these cannot boast the depth and scope of material which Tolkien infused with his own made-up language. To wit, Tolkien’s Middle Earth as we read about it in [I]The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, [/I]and [I]The Silmarillion, [/I]is born through song—as the first deity, Eru Illuvatar, sings companion deities—The Ainur—into existence, and who in turn sing the world of Middle Earth into form. In another historiographical fiction of Middle Earth written by Tolkien, [I]The Legendarium, [/I]the elves, we are told, learned to sing before they could speak. Tolkien wrote hundreds of words in Elvish, and it gave groups like [URL='https://eldandilifantasy.com/']Eldandili Fantasy[/URL], based in Sweden, the lyrical flexibility to try and write pieces that replicate how the author described Elvish music to be.
