I hope these work, as me and music and technology is not a good mix. Music is for vinyl (or CDs...)!

Ralph Vaughan Williams The Lark Ascending not for any one character, but for The Shire.

More Vaughan Williams Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis which I think fits with Bilbo's leaving of The Shire.

Holst's Mars would go with any battle, but especially with the armies of Sauron marching for Helm's Deep. And Holst's Jupiter suits Tom Bombadil as Jupiter is the "bringer of jollity".

Mozart's Dies Irae from Requiem is diabolical so I think might suit Saruman.

And Elgar's Nimrod would go with a solemn moment such as the fall of Theoden in battle - probably influenced by hearing it at so many Remembrance Sunday ceremonies.
