Story Behind The Song

Sharon and I are taking a Modern Harmony Class together at Cinematic Composing and we decided to jointly work on this piece for the past month! We think it turned out terrific after a lot of late nights! We were thinking that Gandalf is always battling evil all day long so he must have some chance to escape to some wonderful, yet mysterious, places in his own dreams at night!
