Since I just finished re-reading The Hobbit, I thought it would be fun to do the same thing with that book as well(since we are getting an original already for the Ring saga).

Thus using the title chapters, I'd like to get some ideas from you guys what music to choose. I got some ideas already, but I'd like this to be a moviemusic thingie, so here are the chapters.

An Unexpected Party
Roast Mutton
A Short Rest
Over Hill and Under Hill
Riddles in the Dark
Out of the Frying-Pan into the Fire
Queer Lodgings
Flies and Spiders
Barrels OUt of Bond
A Warm Welcome
On the Doorstep
Inside Infromation
Not at Home
Fire and Water
The gathering of the Clouds
A Thief in the Night
The Clouds Burst
The Return Journey
The Last Stage

And no, I don't have too much time on my hands.

Yes, I hope to bring them to the screen, "Dragons of Autumn Twilight" / "Dragons of Winter Night" and "Dragons of Spring Dawning." ( and I hope, and with the writer's help)

...continuing on with this clue...hmmmm...that would fit in nicely...hehehehe.

What are you talking about, Dragons of Summer Flame was the perfect ending for the begining series. It is the perfect way to start out the fith age campaign (if you got that far into it.). The age of mortals had to be started somehow, and Weis and Hickman did the way it should have been done. Don't say things that you know nothing about my friend, because I know many people who would be very upset if they ever saw what you wrote here. Dragons of Summer Flame is considered one of the greatest Dragonlance novels ever written.

Don't laugh now: Though I'm not at all a composer, I do intend to toy a bit with composition when I can afford a digital piano. When once again reading The Hobbit this summer, I though about how it could be translated into music, sound-wise and structure-wise. I got some pretty clear ideas, but so far, no way to realize them. Perhaps, one day...

Now if anyone could give me some cues that would be super cool...
