Well, I listened to the Johan De Meij 1st Symphony in the original version. How is this meant to be redolent of Middle Earth? Or any other fantasy realm? Frankly, World of Warcraft does it better. If he had called it "Wagon Train" it would be none the worse. I was frequently reminded of Ferde Grofé, to be honest.
