The world is as it is

A new piece I had some problems classifying... is it Pop? Probably not, but it's definitely not classical, either. I'm putting it up here, see what you make of it :).

Linky: The world is as it is (MP3)

I'm also attaching the score:

I like this! Its not really POP, the flute has a sort of Celtic feel to it, really relaxing. I like the name of the song too.

It's a pop song, just not in a Hannah Montana sense. It's pretty sure, but do more with the accompaniment - it seems a bit too repetitive.

Thanks for the feedback! Sorry I didn't respond sooner, my spam filter blocked the update notification for this thread and I assumed that nobody had answered.

I was going for a kind of serenity with this song, so I'm glad to hear that you found it relaxing. :)

I agree that the accompaniment may need a bit more pep to make it more interesting, but I wasn't sure how to do it without losing the 'flow' of the piece. What would you recommend? Change of instrumentation, rhythm, tonal center?
