Personally,I liked how they used clasical music in LOTR. Alot of rock/metal bands felt angry/sad because they felt their music would be perfect for the movie especially because their songs are about the Middle Earth and all that. For example,you have Blind Guardian who are the front runners of "Tolkien metal". They even have an album titled "nightfall in middle earth" which is about the events of "sillmalirion". Also,there are xyz bands which are named after the names,places of the said books. (Balrog,Moria,Burzum,Varg....etc.) Also,Led Zeppeling were quite influenced by the boom of fantasy in the seventies.
Now,when it comes to the saga of Elric...I have on many occasions imagined (and not just imagined,alot of it just came spontaneously and seamingly out of nowhere) alot of scenes and imiges of the saga whilst listening to the music of Emperor. (Norwegian black metal with clasical influences and epic feel. Maybe closer to the label of "viking metal" but still...)
Any thoughts?
