I'd like to address the issue of Music being subtly executed.

Frankly, I couldn't agree more. One must keep in mind, however, that to a great extent Eru did not take part in thee music. The overall themes were ceratainly his, I would never question that, but all of the subtle bits, the melodies and what have you were the work of the Ainur.

So once more we have an example of Eru doing Grand Obtuse Things, while the Valar are doing things that are less grand, though more subtle.
