the-dragongirl:

I present to you: The Cradle Song, from Sansukh, by determamfidd. This has been a labor of love for me, as well as technically the first thing I have recorded in character as Baris. I did have to make one small alteration to the music as Dets wrote it; the lowest part has been changed from voice to cello, since I cannot sing that low.

For anyone who is interested in recording themselves, I will be putting the recording tracks I created for both this and The Iron Hills for Me up on my soundcloud, a link to which can be found in the description on my tumblr.

OH BARIS

OOOOOHHHHH BARIS IT IS BEAUTIFUL

you got me crying. like a waterfall. I am all red face and runny nose.

You utter star.

For poplitealqueen.

My dearest Miss Pop, so I hear it is your birthday! I sang a very quick and very silly thing for you – serious will happen later, but for now, I hope this makes you smile. 

Happy birthday, my dear friend. You are an amazing person, with such a huge heart and such a brilliant sense of humour. I know you’ve always got my back. I am infinitely richer for having you in my life. *hugs* Love you to bits.

the-dragongirl:

So, I decided to finally try my hand at recording one of the songs from Sansukh. Since The Iron Hills for Me has been stuck in my head for week now, I decided to try transposing and recording it. The lyrics are, of course, by the amazing determamfidd, and the music is written by determamfidd and notanightlight. 

You will note that I transposed this a full third higher than what Dets wrote, because I cannot hit E3 with any kind of consistency, and even F3 can be a bit dodgy at times. So, this isn’t what it will actually sound like when it finally appears in the story. Still, I think it’s pretty in the higher key.

OH YOU TRULY ARE A CRYSTALTONGUE

Baris, it is fantastic!!! You have absolutely flawless pitch, and lovely clean warm vibrato, and ngggh I am gonna go hit replay a zillion times over, hope you’re cool with me gushing over you for the next few days 🙂

(The transposition is awesome, and you smoothly sail over the break like it don’t even matter!! hahaha – you will not have missed that I can’t hit E3 consistently either lol – but I reaaaally wanted to belt it! Perhaps one day I will use my range, but it is not this day) 

aviva0017:

More ALEP singing XD I ended up (drunkenly) singing the setting I’ve been working on of determamfidd‘s Song of Beginnings from Sansukh the first night of the event, and everybody loved it (both the lyrics and the music) and ended up asking me to (drunkenly) sing it again the second night.  By the end, people were joining in with the last line of each verse, it was kind of wonderful. ❤

(I’m actually working on a choral arrangement of this, I was trying to sort of keep it hidden til then, but that preview I put on soundcloud has like a gazillion plays for some reason, so fuck it XD)

(ngl Avi, half of those plays on soundcloud are probably me XD)

Sweet merciful GOD. *shivers*

Okay – first, your voice. You have such a beautiful, beautiful voice. There is such a gorgeous, pearly, clear tone, and you have amazing control and brightness – it’s right into the mask there, and your vowels and phrasing and pitch and rubato and OHGOD *clutches face* AHHHH it is so BEAUTIFUL. *flails at you very intensely* AVIIIII

SECOND: THE TUNE. OH MY GOOD GRAVY. People are joining in with the refrain, just. GAHHH. It has that solemn sacred feeling, that magical depth and vastness, the simplicity of plainsong, the grandeur of a hymn, the plaintive ache of a song that promises acceptance… one day. The repeated high motif before the refrain makes me tear up each time, I am not kidding. 

Blessed be Mahal and the mercy of the Avi One.

liketotessecret:

Kili sings again! Man, I’m on a bloody roll today.

Hmm… what’s the worst possible thing I could do to grimminsanity? 

Oh! I know…

Think: right before leaving on the quest, because dammit, I’ll prove I’m not a screw-up!

(I feel like this would also hurt you, determamfidd 🙂 *halo sounds*)

AUGH KILI it is BEAUTIFUL AND ALSO AUGH

KILI NO

notanightlight:

Sung as Gimrís, there is no song better suited to the relationship she was with Bofur, in my mind.  Sweet, silly, and head-over-heels… literally.

Guest appearance by my cat at the end, the little diva.

AH PERFECT ❤

really-saraleee:

So a nice nonnie suggested to determamfidd that Fris sings bawdy songs to cheer up Thrain – and I thought that was a great idea! 

This is what I think Fris would sing! Just remember that she’s just doing it for fun here, to (ahem!) get a rise out of her husband. I hope it makes you smile.

Of course Maria Muldaur sang it much better.

PERFECTION! I can imagine Fris singing this so clearly. Thrain would chuckle – eventually! (and she’d likely hum it now and then in public, just to watch him try not to laugh)

Oh, your voice <333333

archnemeton:

I ended up reading Sansûkh again, which led to a whole lot of feelings, and also crying, and also shouting DÀIN UGH WHY at actual real people (sorry laura)

long story short I recorded a version of the Broadbeam Cradle-Song 

(lyrics by determamfidd, alt. arrangement by me)

Oh absolutely ABSOLUTELY beautiful! I adore your tune and the harmonies!! I am in love with your voice too, ahhh ❤ Thank you so so much!
