I'm still practicing keyboard/piano.

I have a bit of difficulty playing the arpeggio, but I got tired of the quantized compositions, I want more "life".

So I had to play it myself, and learn to play the piano.

Feedback much appreciated.

Effective bit of gentle 'folk style' inspired music. Some strong, simple tunes in there...might be worth developing into more full orchestral section?

(Maybe slightly lost it's way very slightly melodically when it moves key centre).

Performing -wise - don't forget that any little tiny errors (wrong note hit / single note too loud or quiet / one note out of time for example) can easily be adjusted afterwards without ruining the 'life'. Sometimes a little bit of quantization can also be applied (with extreme care) to tidy up the playing!

Thanks.

I agree that this tune would work well for a fully orchestrated track, but I also like the simplicity of the piece, and if it is going to be used in one of my videos on my youtube channel, I think it needs to be as simple as possible, to not draw attention away from the video content.

We know you here as the maker of soft, remote tones. And this piano
piece also fits well into this category. The balancing act between "lively"
and still "in rhythm" is a narrow one, but I think you hit it well.
