So, what is this “Arod”? A forgotten composer, a mythical city, a mysterious acrostic? Why not, indeed. In fact, Le Quatuor Arod chose as their tutelary figure a horse imagined by Tolkien in The Lord of the Rings. A symbol of strength and ardour and means “agile, swift”. Arod also embodied a spirit of freedom and companionship given that elf Legolas provided him with a bareback horse, without reins.
