Ainulindalë
Ainulindalë (Quenya, "Music of the Ainur" or, more literally, "Singing of the Holy") is the first section and chapter of The Silmarillion (an abridged and condensed collection of fictional legends presented as histories, written over some 60+ years by J. R. R. Tolkien, edited and published posthumously in 1977 by his son, Christopher Tolkien). In Tolkien's legendarium, the Ainur (Angels) are Middle-earth's divine beings. In Heaven, before Time, they compose a Great Music. This Music is revealed to be the template, or blueprint, commensurable with the entire history of Middle-earth (beginning to end). The Music of the Ainur is later made manifest by a single-word command of Ilúvatar's (God).
