I immediately have to think of a wide Celtic landscape hearing this tune. Hills, rocks, sheep, grass and here and there a little village or a small farm.
This is one for dreaming away and thinking about the past.

A sweet tune, well wrought and played. Windham hill always had the best production values. This compares splendidly.

Beautiful track, very skilfully played and produced. Love the way it unfolds. Superb sound, warm and powerful...doesn't sound at all "digital" and reminds me a lot of the quality you get with vinyl.

Alan calls you “Maestro”. I can understand why. Stunning work Michael, particularly like the violin performance and the great way the arrangement flows from phrase to phrase.

Ahh the strings. Very beautiful, very peaceful. Great work Michael. Sometimes we become the blind man who sees. Take care. Thank you for being there and helping so many people.

Gosh Michael, didn't know you played the violin :) Very serene arrangement - a deep lullaby - great dynamics and beautifully performed!

As I think of all the artists on SC that I've heard Michael, you demonstrate a mastery of technology that allows you to successfully orchestrate and perform great music - that's why I call you "Maestro". Awesome track on many fronts Maestro! Bravo!
What a beautiful both light & sad music... While listening I've suddenly felt tears in my heart...
