Melancholy waltz on orchestral strings. Pizzicato and legato orchestral strings move like a fast-flowing river over booming and bell-like percussion. Mid section descends into a playful circus before returning to the melody. Heartfelt, playful, wistful, slightly melancholic with a hint of magic, evoking the spirit of a resourceful French orphan or the twinkling delights of an old-fashioned fairground. Imbued with mystery and fantastical possibilities, but never far from danger…

Night Falls (Suite)
Atmospheric droney strings and electronics. Sustained string drone under sparse plucked cello and fleeting, shifting electronics. Foreboding, threatening and chilling, would suit an eerie TV/Film/Doc scene, where an as-yet-unrevealed threat lies close by.

Me and My Friend
Innocent piano-led orchestral string track. Bright, hopeful piano intro, playful pizzicato strings enter, joined by cheeky, cheerful percussion. Orchestral strings become more prominent, sweet glockenspiel melody, hand clap-style percussion, jaunty piano outro. Fun, innocent and dynamic. Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, feels like the arrival of Springtime. Perfect for a delightfully pleasant advert for a jolly family product or as background music on a feel-good tv documentary about the flora and fauna of the English countryside, or communities coming together in harmony.
Mithras
Slow-moving, quirky clarinet and string track. Building anticipation with low, pizzicato strings and a harsh, quacking clarinet line. Suitable for nature/wildlife docs or a mysterious, curious, comedic TV moment.
Happy Harp
Playful pizzicato strings and double bass play a jaunty, carefree melody. Strings imitate the plucked strings of a harp, in the absence of any actual harp. Fun, hopeful, positive and warm, a slight melodic idea that would be a perfect piece for a short advert or TV interlude.
