Lush-- Yes. The sountrack definitely smooths over many bumps in the road which would otherwise bequite unsettling.
Aren't many (perhaps most) epics rythmic, poetic? When we popularize the the "lyrics" as a screenplay in the common tongue, without meter, then the tune and the orchestration must step in and make it stately and compelling and majestic again. And I think Shore does that *quite* well.
