I like it's loose and everchanging feel. For me it seems the shaker is a bit too upfront. But it has nice variations and never bores you or overwhelms you. Well done!
Am I supposed to get Suzume vibes ? I'm getting Suzume vibes and loving it. It really suits the theme-photo well, nice arrangement and composition, a very soothing melody and musical piece, it's simplicity makes it very efficient and captivating/relaxing. Nice !
Love the music here and the artwork! Really nice atmosphere with the flutes leading us through the song. Then when the strings come in, they played with each other nicely. And finally when the beat kind of switched and everything joined in at 1:50 or so, I saw us panning over to like a medieval fantasy bard group. Very cool use of instruments in this piece. I would love to have some chords under the instruments throughout the intro too, but I think the space the instruments create on their own is cool as well!
That's some really good music you got there. Loved the percussion, the flute is completely perfect and fits SOOOOO well with the guitar. Tottaly going to my D&D campaign.
What a pleasure to hear music that reconnects with my meditative impressions of the photo: I ended up believing that I had gone off-topic. But here, you chose to stay in major, which brings an even stronger sweetness. The flute of the melody is perfect, the koto of the central variation is wonderfully used, and the musical choices inherited from the West and the East are absolutely mastered. The melody played without accompaniment at several moments of the work accentuates the meditative side, and the guitar considerably rounds off the accompaniment, like a pause where a whole group meets after a difficult quest, to regain strength. Excellent
Great instrumentation and atmosphere, really nails the theme.
Nice work!
