This started off as a Malaguena sounding Spanish guitar song. But I couldn't get the guitar
to sound the way I wanted so I tried different instruments (Joshua Bell Violin was close) and
finally settled on piano. I could have spent even more time tweaking the melody and esp the accompaniment but you have to call it finished at some point so here it is.

Thanks for any comments/suggestions.

Hi Bjorn,

This is a beautiful sounding piano piece with lovely vocal and synth interjections.

Very relaxing and melodic.

Thanks for sharing.

Good Job!

Beautiful piano piece Bjorn.  Not sure the connection to Maleguena, but it's gorgeous.

Steve, thanks! Actually I did more piano roll editing than playing here.
Jack, tom Paul - thanks for listening and commenting.
David, it started off sounding a lot like Malaguena but not after all the  edits I made.

 Bjorn , Simply Beautiful ..   I Really liked the piano , I do hear some spots where nylon guitar backing would be real nice , but not replacing the piano. The mix was perfect ,  I'm also a fan of Raum reverb .  Loved it ..  mark

Bjorn . . . don't have any comments to add on this one . . . I just sat back, listened, and enjoyed thoroughly ! Simple as that.

That's a good one. It blends a lot of stuff in a nice way. Raum is a great reverb and I'd only offer the idea of just a bit more of it on the string parts, as the piano is nicely bathed in the verb. Or maybe I'm reacting to the way the string lines seem to swell, and then end abruptly sometimes.

That filtered synth up top is a great add, reminds me of the furry pawed one.

super pleasant and nice piano which obviously carries the piece.

 

cheers,

You nailed this, Bjorn!  You are truly an idea machine, and I never know what to expect from you.  I love that!!

Nice atmosphere created between piano, strings and voice.  Meditative.
