Icy Hot Feeling In Left Shoulder Blade

Par Lindh and Björn Johansson - Bilbo

"The Lord of the Rings," based on Tolkien's novel is a film done on a grand scale. The trilogy was not so popular with readers, because it is not easy reading. Much easier and more delightful was the Hobbit, which preceded the great work (of course, do not forget about The Silmarillion). Tolkien's writing these "tales" rose species the heights of fantasy art, how is a valuable item and how many there true emotions and hidden truths.

Par Lindh and Björn Johansson - Bilbo

Bilbo - is the title of the album featured here, such a musical illustration to the story . For over an hour to move into the world of fantasy. To the land where they live trolls and goblins. Where there is a dragon Smoug who attacked once on this beautiful and joyful world. On this album you can find many moods of early music, a lot of parties here, such as acoustic instruments, flute, oboe, bassoon but we can listen to beautiful improvisations on acoustic guitar and mandolin. This is not a discovery record, the first "throw the ear "This is an eclectic combination of baroque and renaissance music with rock of the seventies.
The album can be heard here at times influence of ELP and Pink Floyd - The dark piece, "The Dark Cave", describes a very pleasant meeting Bilbo trolls, goblins and ugly stworem Gallumem. W utworze "Rivendell" ciekawie brzmi tu gitara Johanssona, który  bliski jest Mike Oldfield’owi.
Obraz bitwy muzycznie pokazany, niestety mnie nie satysfakcjonuje, myślę, że każdy kto przeczytał książkę, wizje ma również zdecydowanie inne - nie widzę tu tego Tolkienowskiego rozmachu,  jego daru przekonywania, również brak tej iskry niesamowitości, a przecież ta książka aż się prosi aby Par Lindh i jego kolega zobrazowali nam tu coś magicznego, charakteryzującego tą piękną opowieść fantasy, no cóż, każdy inaczej to interpretuje.
But I definitely say that after hearing the music, book of JRR Tolkien's "Hobbit" begs for re-appointment.
