Comments
Though primarily an instrumental piece, this track contains an Orkish battle song whose lyrics were devised by the composer. In the liner note, Rosenman writes: "The men's chorus sings the finally developed "Mordor" theme, using the word "Mordor" mostly in the cadences. The rest of the language I invented (occasionally using my name backwards) for the fantastic, almost medieval scene."
