8dio Stand Out Contest Submission: "The Jungle" by Juriy Nikitin

This was composed as part of a selection of tracks to accompany the signing of the register at my daughter's wedding.

8Dio Adagietto string chords were improvised and then layered to give space then I improvised the Virharmonic Bohemian Violin over the top for the melody.

This is a track I themed in The Shannara Chronicles, really great music in that series, definitely has influenced some of my recent writing style, so has the show dark matter, great show as well.
