First, I actually thought we have already semi-agreed on Ring Goes South; but in any case, I would be all for it. Journey in the Dark is also nice, but TRGS sounds at least as well and there's quite a lot character talk at the beginning and
Nog has actually started working on something for TRGS, so...

If he wishes to join in with the composing then we should make some deals about who takes which part of the chapter.

Now, concerning this (I am almost-quoting, or paraphrasing the response):
If you have something done and you'd wish him to play something for you - he can do either accoustic guitar or bass guitar (unfortunately, we no longer have the violoncello and there's also piano but it will be probably very bad quality), you can send it to him eventually with some guidelines how you'd like it to be. Or with the beat or notes, if you sent him such (direct quote: "If they really took the effort with it..."
), then he could follow that as well.
And if it were to be the way that everyone picks some part of the chapter and makes music for it, then also no problem - you can discuss that. In that case, there are probably some passages where you'd like to have the music. So from these passages, you would probably have some passages you'd like to do, and also in that case he'd look at these passages if there isn't anything which would really interest him, and you could then agree on what is he going to do.
And last thing, he also has some of these composing-programs and he can do something with them, like putting tracks together or such, or make electronic music (or music out of recorded music samples).
