Take note, next time I go to record this will be sung.
(I also have this vision in my mind where after we get through all the real stuff, we also record the best snippets of the parodies, crossovers, Elvish, and whatever else we come up with in the meantime as a bloopers reel. The fact that I'm planning a bloopers reel when I can't even get though half of the music in... 9 months?... is perhaps a sign of arrogance, or impatience, but it might be the carrot to get me going faster...)
Aaaaaaaand
Thingol takes the mic! I had to do a few takes before I could get Thingol to sound dignified. Or, if that's not the right word for it, perhaps self-important would do. See if he sounds okay, I'm more than happy to fiddle around with the style there.
I am so excited for Melian! ^.^ I was looking forwards to this for a very long time, and I hope I don't disappoint myself if my musical efforts don't live up to my expectations. In terms of the flow, my goal is to make it so that every piece from Renunciation till the end of Aria can easily be combined to go right after each other without pause. Quarrel starts on the same note as Renunciation ends, they could be glued together without pause. I will do a several second transition to Melian's 4-liner, which will be a separate document for speed and instrument purposes. Which would then seamlessly transition to the Aria proper with only a brief pause. If it is to be split up into separate videos, though, I think it would be easier to combine both Tonguelashing parts together rather than stick the 4-liner after Quarrel. But if you feel that we should stick to the original script on this, I can re-plan the transitions so that there's not so much hanging expectation between "grace of Eru" and "with single wave". Much easier to re-plan than to rewrite.
Also, speaking of Melian's 4-liner, I recall a distant discussion on her opening line, and I think we were trying to make it match her Duet lines. So, I did my homework, and came up with "O my husband dear, how your course runs ill" as a potential alternative to put on the drawing board.
