Hello, In the latest Silmfilm session , Corey assigned the musicians to try and come up with some music for the Valar and Iluvatar himself. I hope to use this thread as a place for discussion for the style of these character's melodies and even posting of music if anyone has come up with any.
As Timdalf (and im sure many others) has said in other threads, we don't want to rush into this. We need a firm foundation to build up from.
A simple melody is often the first step in composing and often born in the mind of one person. But i do think we would want the assigning of particular melodies to be a group decision. Interpretation of character and music differs widely.
My idea for Nienna's theme is that it might feel very sorrowful ,minor and probably largo. While Tulkas would be quite upbeat and major. Ulmo's melody would be pulsating and be able to change key subtly and smoothly. However is would still have a firm root on a particular note.
That's just some of my still developing thoughts on the subject. What are your ideas ?
