I Will Survive Piano

This song was inspired by celtic landscapes such as the ones found in Scotland, and tells the story of the heart connection between a dragon rider and a dragon. It uses orchestral layers and drums to create an epic background with a cinematic development. The guitar and violins - using both acoustic and electric violins - are the key voices with some solos rising in energy, for instance at 1'35" the drums and violin evoke the strength and renewed bond between them. The harps and other celtic instruments bring back the song to a more dreamlike and heavenly ending.

If you like relaxing music or contemporary classical music, you're definitely in the right place, especially if you want to discover exciting new artists along with the more established ones! So, if you've liked one of my playlists, check out the rest or you might be missing out on some real gems! (I get no benefit from doing these, other than the joy of connecting people to good music!) As well as contemporary classical, I also have a few other relaxing playlists (ambient, jazz, chillout...), all with no words. 
After getting severe myalgic encepalopathy I found I have to rest a lot and at first it was very boring and frustrating but then I got into Soundcloud! I've come across so many wonderful composers and musicians on here and have developed a love of contemporary classical music. I make relaxing playlists... I started out just for myself but it's always great if someone else enjoys them too! I always try to support artists by choosing their tracks instead of versions posted by fans/others, and I enjoy making my playlists diverse, including all the brilliant female and international composers out there etc (which seem to be lacking in a lot of playlists and auto-play, and which is a great shame as there's so much talent out there!)
Most days I repost my favorite track that I've heard that day from one of my playlists.
The artwork used for playlists all belongs to me and was done by myself or my dad.
