Saruman the White

about this song

Here again, Shore presents bits of the still-forming Fellowship theme. “When Gandalf rides we hear a dark take on the Fellowship theme—he’s off on his own now. The hobbits have the cozy Fellowship, but he has this darkness because he’s going into Isengard, and he knows there’s serious business ahead.” Gandalf is met at the feet of Orthanc by a most undesirable host—the Threat of Mordor motive. Saruman has fallen under the shadow of Mordor.
