The minstrel of Gondor is an unnamed man of Gondor who, on the Field of Cormallen, sang the lay 'of Frodo of the Nine Fingers and the Ring of Doom' before Aragorn and the assembled Free Peoples. In the 1980 animated adaptation of The Return of the King he is given a much expanded, framing-device role, voiced by Glenn Yarbrough. He appears in Tolkien's novel as well as in several radio and game adaptations.
