A musical interpretation of all Tolkien's songs from The Hobbit, born out of the desire to know what the tunes to the songs were when reading the book, aged 8. When I was a bit older, I started to record what would be some of my earliest musical creations. When I was a bit older than that, I had the excuse to finish them all as part of an assignment during my teacher training. Vocals were hurriedly recorded in one session and so needed a bit of re-singing. Except for the goblins, of course.
To make this more of a musical audiobook rather than an album, the lyrics are unabridged and the music written to work around them, down to the last 'fl la!'
Hopefully, when you read The Hobbit, you'll come up with your own tunes - as I'm sure J.R.R. Tolkien intended - but if you fancy hearing what another reader heard in their head, here you go.

Lyrics by J.R.R.Tolkien and taken from The Hobbit.
