An Evening In Rivendell is the first album by the Danish group The Tolkien Ensemble. It features songs composed to the lyrics found in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and forms the first part of what was to become a complete musical interpretation of all lyrics in the book. The Tolkien Ensemble (founded in 1995) is a Danish ensemble which aims to create the world's first complete musical interpretation of the poems and songs from The Lord of the Rings. They published four CDs from 1997 to 2005, in which all the poems and songs of The Lord of the Rings are set to music. The project was approved by both the Tolkien family and HarperCollins Publishers. Queen Margrethe II of Denmark gave permission to use her illustrations in the CD layout. Permanent members are Caspar Reiff and Peter Hall (composition, singing and guitar), Signe Asmussen (singing), yvind Ougaard (accordion), Katja Nielsen (double-bass), and Morten Ryelund S rensen (conductor and violin).
