A piece for the woman I love...

Me trying my luck with my $10 bucks Quena, that I found quite easy to record, no big deal, I wish would be that easy for Saxophones....

Interesting - a little bit more than ambient. Reminds me of Vangelis, Michael Nyman and some more traditional film music.

I do like the background I just wish you varied a little more one of the parameters rather than just having it mark the harmony change. For an example check Eno's Thursday Afternoon where background overtakes foreground and vice versa a rather cool piece of ambient music.
Around 3:30 is something of what I am speaking of but slowed down the change of background for a much longer time.

I also wonder, the melodies though good and quite pleasant (like the pan pipes (?) very nicely done) get a little derivative - as I said sort of like Vangelis if he only knew how to write good counterpoint and more interesting melodies. Not saying you would have to go much farther but a little more.

Now at 5:19 I like what you do settling on the cadence you could easily extend the piece - I hear the slight sound of raindrops after the chord - you could easily take what you had and stretch out certain parts and speed up a few fragments if you'd like to do another piece.

Overall - very well done but so much room to generate more pieces from the first one. Also check Thursday Afternoon for some ideas of playing with foreground and background.
Thanks, yeah I'll check that "Thursday Afternoon" ...

I suppose I could extend this twice or even more ...15 minutes ? I have other pieces like this, one is 7min I think, other is 13, I will surely do one more of these tracks, I'll keep in mind what you said.

This is the quena, just mine is 7 holes front + 1 back
