The halting piano is really good to express feelings in this song. Solo piano seems to be hot for tv shows and ads right now so this seems close to being good for the market, in my opinion.

Really like this track. Very meditative with and floating, balancing melody that bring us in the dream area. Parts are clear and the use of different instruments to mark those is superb.

I like the piano, natural sounding as well as the strings. Good melody. The song is peaceful.

What a nice piece of freshness. I can imagine Lady Guinevere wandering in a wood, at dawn, thinking of the return of her lover. Nostalgic but full of hope at the same time. I think the wind instrument entrance is perfect and it underlines the melody very well. The piano chords & harmonies are beautifully chosen. Congratulations for this medium age jewel.

Excellent! Very peaceful and moving. I can feel the emotion within the playing of the piano. Has a great Celtic feel to it. Very nice composition. :)
