howard shore basically did this explicitly to score the movie, no? like there's the fellowship motif, shire motif, ring motif, … each story-thematic element gets a corresponding musical-thematic element woodzie.org/lotr/

Wonder if you could generate a new fantasy story by first just making up a pleasing alt sequence of these notes from the one in LOTR

Hmm “historic place” is probably also a note. People saying place names in awed tones drives the story along. Each place has a different mood but invoking a place to shift mood is the note.

1- Result (starting point) 2-Goal Statement 3-complication/Conflict 4-Outcome 5- Reaction 6-Reflection 7-Decision Minimum scene unit. This scales up to form chords, sequences, acts and stories. Ring = motif = unit that contains 1+ and is recognizable through repetition
