I’m not sure what to say, but I feel that this thread has to have more impact on our casting choices. And I also think that we’ve missed a few opportunities up until now. For example, even though we had discussed this, we nominated and elected an actor for the role of Finrod who did not have any apparent singing skill. To be honest, I think we should have had this discussion while casting some of the Maiar, like Yavanna and definitely Sauron. One could argue that the singing could be added in post production but I feel such a choice is giving up and accepting the trammels of reality too much.
