What language was spoken in Utumno and Angband?

I wonder about it..

Was it Quenia? Was it the tongue of the Valar and Maiar, which I dimly remember was totally different from the speech of the Quendi?

Or has Morgoth invented the Black Speech already?

But here I am also confused, as I remember it was Sauron who invented the Black Speech, not Morgoth.

Anybody knows the answers?
