At Dawn in Rivendell is the third album by the Danish group the Tolkien Ensemble. It featured a guest appearance by the actor and singer Christopher Lee, who voiced the spoken word tracks and sang the part of the Ent Treebeard.
The album was broadly welcomed by critics, though they felt that many of the more serious settings were too modern and discordant for Tolkien's more traditional words. They enjoyed the cheerful hobbit-songs, and the final song, the Elvish hymn to Elbereth, sung by the mezzo-soprano Signe Asmussen, was admired.
