There are a few precedents. The Imperial Anthem by our own Captain Krankor
and the Warrior's Anthem by Marc Okrand share a couple of details: both
are in a minor key, and both begin with a slow, plodding rhythm and build
to a near frenzy having many notes per beat. Nearly all of the musical
compositions in tlhIngan Hol to date use a rhyming scheme similar to modern
music and poetry in English, and I can't think of any right now that are in
a major key.
