In the beginning of the scene, they use a lot of casual sounds, like having the birds chirping throughout the scene. They use the sound to give off a sense of calmness. Gestalt principal was another sound element they used while developing this scene. The use of stopping the song in the background when Frodo and Gandalf are just staring at each other for 10 seconds creates tension. We, the audience start to feel the tension between the two and not knowing if they are truly mad at each other. How the music starts back up quietly when they start to laugh, gives the audience, the feeling that they were just joking with each other and that they are friends, who are meeting for the first time in a long time. When they hug the song gets louder and more swaying like which makes the audience become more comfortable with the scene and more calmed. The song sort of demonstrates what is probably going on inside their minds, a since of ease. This pretty much is the Shire, where they are at, is portrayed. The Shire is a calm peaceful place. Anyone who goes there will get a since of belonging and relaxation. Which this song and the birds chirping gives the audience a sense of.
