The CD release of the piece, performed by the St. Michael's Symphony Orchestra of Torun, has been eagerly awaited by many. Symphony No. 5\" is based on the story \"Middle-earth\" by J. R. R. Tolkien and was composed as part of the project to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the premiere of \"Symphony No. 1: The Lord of the Rings\". It is a magnificent work in six movements written for soprano solo voice, a mixed chorus of over 80 singers, and a wind orchestra. It is interesting to note that the lyrics for soprano and chorus are written in Ilkorin, a language created by Tolkien (one of the medieval Elvish languages). Johan de Mey's skillful orchestration, the soprano who sings with great earnestness, and the harmonies of the mixed chorus create a variety of sounds that draw the listener into the world of Johan de Mey without feeling the time, even though it is a large work of about 44 minutes.Johan de Mey, his longest work, \"Symphony No. 5 Return to Middle Earth,\" is a must-hear.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amstel Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48136689156385,"sku":"8714441018358","price":3790.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/8714441018358.jpg?v=1708665747","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/8714441018358","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
