In 1999, Jon Anderson of Yes joined with a small fellowship of recording artists to create music inspired by the writings of J.R.R. Tolkien. Wishing to make more than just a tribute album, they set out to record music that actually came from Tolkien’s mythical worlds. For years, fans have awaited its release.

This brand new studio album features songs in Elvish, English and Anglo-Saxon that reflect details gleaned from Tolkien’s personal notes. Features a wide variety of ancient instruments and early-music performance practices. Collectable full-colour dig-pack art, based on designs from ancient manuscripts. Integrated booklet with lyrics and album notes. Exclusive ‘early-music’ cover version of Led Zeppelin’s Tolkien inspired classic "The Battle of Evermore".
