Album Description

In January 2001, we released our Lord of the Rings music tribute song, "Tolkien (The Hobbit & Lord of the Rings)" to MP3.com. Within a month, the song skyrocketed up the charts to #14 of the MP3.com charts out of over two million songs!

Two years later, the Brobdingnagian Bards are at last completing a music CD dedicated to the JRR Tolkien's. This album is soundtrack, if you will for the books, filled with entirely original Lord of the Rings music. It is a mostly instrumental album that aspires to show our memories of the Lord of the Rings music world.

If you enjoy the music of JRR Tolkien, consider checking out the album that started it all--Songs of the Muse which features the original release of our #1 hit song that is still the most-popular Celtic song on MP3.com, "Tolkein (The Hobbit & Lord of the Rings)".

The lads' best yet!.......2006-08-08

This CD is the Bard's best yet. This time the guys are playing it straight, no jokes, goof offs, or silliness. The songs are heart felt and wonderful. My favorite is the song of the Ents.
This CD is where you really get to hear the lads as MUSICIANS.
They were/are always great entertainers, but this is where their real musical talent comes to the fore. Great harmony, great folk art, and melody. Buy This!!

Tolkien would be proud.......2005-05-14

I cannot think of any group who could do what the Brobdingnagian Bards do-that is, to capture the spirit of such a classic and record it. This album is a great addition to any Tolkien fan's library. If you are new to Tolkien, or spent hours a day travelling through Middle Earth again and again, you'll love this CD. I know I do! :)

Excellent!.......2004-11-06

A 'must have' for all Tolkien fans!

I didn't know about the existance of The Bards until I attened the 'North Georgia Celtic Festival'. They were there and I heard them play several songs on this CD and several of their others. When I saw this CD being sold indoors, I immeadiately wanted it, being the LotR fanatic that I am. Bought the CD and had them sign it also... Probably the best thing I've done with my money in months...

Personal favorites include: The Psychopathic, Chronic, Schizophrenic Gollum Blues, Weathertop, The Heart of Fangorn, and Now It's Time To Go (Bilbo's Farewell Song). The instrumental pieces are awesome also... I feel like I **was** in Fangorn, Lothlorien, Moria... everywhere they covered in their lovely music.

Still Loving the Bards!.......2004-06-20

I'll have to admit that the first time i listened to this CD i thought it was a bit strange. But the songs grew on me, and i love it as much as anything else the Bards have done. (Which is a lot!) Legolas is a bit silly, but other than that one track the album is great fun to listen to, and you can really get the feeling that this is an album the Bards did out of their love for the books, and defenitely not something they just did to make money or jump on the bandwagon.

Magical Memories.......2004-04-08

I will grant the nay-sayer that this album is not for everyone, but having all of the Bards albums, I would give this one a well-earned "Huzzah" any day. The sheer scope of the album, the fact that it is entirely original music/lyrics, and the growth it represents make it a winner.

But that's all academic stuff. From a listener's viewpoint, this album is magic. The sheer lyrical beauty of songs like "Ring of Hope" and "Heart of Fangorn"...the joyous abandon of "Hobbit's Dance"...the musicality of "Moria"....

My advice is buy it and see for yourself--I have four. :)

Album Description

Winner of the coveted Parents' Choice Approved Award, June 2002! "A sumptuous collection." - Parenting Magazine, August 2002 --- Composed and arranged by Sir J.W. Elliott, "Nursery Rhymes and Nursery Songs" was first published in the 1870s in London and quickly became a fond part of childhood for millions of children for more than a century. Recital singer Robin Hendrix presents the first recording of this wonderful music just as Sir James conceived it. The songs contain lyrics from Mother Goose's nursery rhymes and from popular English children's poems. The CD cover is an eight-panel foldout containing some of the charming engravings created especially for this music by the famed Dalziel Brothers studio. This recording is a unique and delightful means of introducing good music to young children.

At the time this music was composed, the nursery rhymes were already well known in England, but the new settings helped establish the collection as a national treasure. In addition to the nursery rhymes, the nursery songs give a charming glimpse of an idealized childhood at the height of the Victorian period. Some songs show the gentle humor of the time ("Three Children Sliding"), while others were used to convey morals ("Maggie's Pet", "Mother Tabbyskins"). The quality of compositions like "When the Snow is on the Ground" and "The Spider and the Fly" brings to mind composers like Schubert and Gilbert & Sullivan.

Perfect example for Victorian times.......2007-05-15

This is just what I was looking for. If you're looking for simple nursery rhymes for your child to listen and learn; this is not the one. This is more sophisticated, and a better example of music in Victorian times.

great exposure for children.......2005-06-11

I think some people may have missed the point. This cd is victorian era nursery rhymes sung and arranged wonderfully, it is NOT Barney. Children will love it. I am a Children's Librarian and play this cd before story times. The children are very interested and entertained. This is a great chance to introduce classical music to children and help to enrich their lives. Give it a chance, it will help round out your children's experiences, and likely your own as well.

probably not what you want.......2003-11-25

I was looking for a simple CD of classic nursery songs play for and sing with my daughter. This is a classical music CD of a particular songbook from the 19th century - well sung, and perhaps kids might like listening to it, but it's not what I wanted. She could be singing Schubert for all you know - they're definitely not kiddy tunes. If you're looking for simple, classic, sing-a-longs, keep looking (I'm still looking! Why is everything either off the mark, like this CD, or adulterated with "original, fresh" looks at old tunes, how about just a normal CD of normal songs! I can't remember them after 30 years, but I'd like to). Incidentally, while I recognized some of the song titles, these are different versions.

Nursery Rhymes and Nursery Songs, Robin Hendrix.......2003-10-28

I wasn't able to listen to any tracks of this CD before buying it. Now that I've removed the plastic and listened, I can't return it, so thought I'd at least warn others. I was expecting more of a folk style, and this is classical, almost operatic music. I like classical music and even opera, but found it really awful in this context. We only listened to about 5 minutes in the car before I had to turn it off. My son (almost 2), however, was laughing. Maybe he likes it. I'll be sure to read more reviews and listen to lots of tracks in the future.

YUK!!!!.......2003-10-21

I was SOOOO disappointed. I checked my order to make sure I actually got the right CD?!??!?
It sounds like opera. A woman singing the rhymes in such a high pitched voice and you can barely understand what she is saying. For young children, you want something sinmple clear and fun. This is boring- they all sound alike. I think maybe a scholar would like this CD, but certaintly not young children. (...)!!I can't believe all the excellent reviews and how misled I was.
