Liner notes

Sam felt as if he were inside a song when he described Lothlórien, the land of enchantment and wonder in J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord Of The Rings. Lothlórien is as beautiful as a dream, as pure as the dawn of creation and as old as the beginning of time. Here, the leaves of the Mallorn trees in Autumn do not fall, but turn to gold.

Various translations and suggested origins of the name Lothlórien give us colourful and imaginative expressions such as ‘the vale of the land of singers’, ‘the valley of the singing Gold’ and ‘Dreamflower’.

Lothlórien…

…beautiful as a dream…
…pure as the dawn of creation…
…old as the beginning of time…
the leaves do not fall – they turn to gold…
…the vale of the land of singers…
…the valley of the singing gold…
…Dreamflower…
