Morning Mood? [In reply to] Can't Post

You mean the piece "Morning Mood" (very different from Mourning)? I don't think so.

"Things need not to have happened to be true.
Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure
when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot."

They're both of a very pastoral nature [In reply to] Can't Post

(see what I did there?) but no, I don't believe one was based on the other. Subliminal influence, maybe.


The third part of Rossini's William Tell Overture seems a bit closer to the Shire theme, IMO.


They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters, these see the works of the Lord, and His wonders in the deep. -Psalm 107

Let me think...No. [In reply to] Can't Post

Outside of the general pastoral mood mentioned above there doesn't seem to be much resemblance. As for getting musical information from You Tube, as Tolkien might have said, "If that's where we get our news we'll never want for moonshine".

The website, "a magpie's nest" has a lot of information including references to a couple of pieces that do have some coincidental similarity.

And, if the "Doug Adams" above is the author of 'The Music of the LotR Films' I very much enjoyed your book.
