The fact that Wormtongue is evil is obvious, but the fact that he is working specifically with Saruman is not. That aspect of the music (incorporation of a symbolic time signature) is simply subtext. If you're listening for that kind of detail, you'll understand...if not, you'll found out later. Peter may ask Shore to compose very dramatic music for certain scenes, but there's plenty of stuff going on beneath the obvious factors. It's only obvious on a very simple "this is what I'm immediately hearing" level. There are many layers that shouldn't be so readily dismissed.

Brad Dourif is amazing in this scene. I love his delivery of "I told you to take the Wizard's staff!"
