A very nice piece. It brings to mind a broad field after a battle, the few survivors picking themselves up and marching off. Chills!

The comment of Jim Lynch describes it perfectly! Great song!

Wonderful build! Strange as it may sound, I feel transported back to the Middle Ages...

I can definitely feel hope in this. It is  also very relaxing and mesmerising. Beautiful!

Mostly the piano lines decide where my composition is heading to. Not this time, I found a voice sample, loved it and build the whole track around it, it had to be dark that s what the voice sample inspired me to do...I wanted to have whale songs in with it but could not find anything convincing...Suggestions? Hope you like the result
Stay tune and healthy

Light, floating, delicate and fine
The beauty lies in the light glow:
A sparkle, a glitter and shine of color,
that's how the elf dance works.
We float on light and ride the wind,
sometimes slowly and contemplatively, sometimes quite swiftly.

Leicht, schwebend, zart und fein
Die Schönheit liegt im hellen Schimmer:
Ein Funkeln, ein Glitzern und Leuchten der Farben,
so funktioniert der Elfentanz.
Wir schweben auf Licht und reiten auf dem Wind,
mal langsam und beschaulich, mal ganz flott.

Beannaich, a Thrianailt fhioir nach gann,
(Segne, o Dreifaltiger, Wahrer und Gütiger,)
Mi fein, mo cheile agus mo chlann, 
(Ich selbst, mein Ehepartner und meine Kinder,)
Mo chlann mhaoth's am mathair chaomh 'n an ceann,
(Meine zarten Kinder und ihre geliebte Mutter an ihrer Spitze,)
Air chlar chubhr nan raon, air airidh chaon nam beann,
(Auf der duftenden Ebene, an der fröhlichen Bergscheide,)
Air chlar chubhr nan raon, air airidh chaon nam beam.
(Auf der duftenden Ebene, in der fröhlichen Berglandschaft.)

Gach ni na m' fhardaich, no ta 'na m' shealbh,
(Alles innerhalb meiner Wohnung oder in meinem Besitz,)
Gach buar is barr, gach tan is tealbh,
(Alle Kühe und Feldfrüchte, alle Herden und Getreide,)
Bho Oidhche Shamhna chon Oidhche Bheallt,
(Von Heiligabend bis Beltane,)
Piseach maith, agus beannachd mallt,
(Mit gutem Fortschritt und sanftem Segen,)
Bho mhuir, gu muir, agus bun gach allt,
(Von Meer zu Meer, und jeder Flussmündung,)
Bho thonn gu tonn, agus bonn gach steallt.
(Von Welle zu Welle, und am Fuße des Wasserfalls.)

Poem Emily Jane Brontë.
Thank you so much Torbjørn and Ad, thank you from my heart.
This music was written and finished before the outbreak of war in Europe. We feel deeply for the people who are suffering in the war.
Despite the cruelty of the war, we share this music today, 
....."let us sit and watch the while
The blue ice curdling on the stream ".....
This poem by Emily Jane Brontë takes us out into nature, where we can for a moment, move away from the painful and brutal world.
The poem focuses on the healing ability of nature.

Emily Jane Brontë (30 July 1818 – 19 December 1848) was an English novelist and poet who is best known for her only novel, Wuthering Heights, now considered a classic of English literature. She also published one book of poetry with her sisters Charlotte and Anne titled Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell with her own poems finding regard as poetic genius.

How still, how happy! Those are words
That once would scarce agree together;
I loved the plashing of the surge -
The changing heaven the breezy weather,

More than smooth seas and cloudless skies
And solemn, soothing, softened airs
That in the forest woke no sighs
And from the green spray shook no tears.

How still, how happy! now I feel
Where silence dwells is sweeter far
Than laughing mirth's most joyous swell
However pure its raptures are.

Come, sit down on this sunny stone:
'Tis wintry light o'er flowerless moors -
But sit - for we are all alone
And clear expand heaven's breathless shores.

I could think in the withered grass
Spring's budding wreaths we might discern;
The violet's eye might shyly flash
And young leaves shoot among the fern.

It is but thought - full many a night
The snow shall clothe those hills afar
And storms shall add a drearier blight
And winds shall wage a wilder war,

Before the lark may herald in
Fresh foliage twined with blossoms fair
And summer days again begin
Their glory - haloed crown to wear.

Yet my heart loves December's smile
As much as July's golden beam;
Then let us sit and watch the while
The blue ice curdling on the stream -
Emily Jane Brontë

How Still. Torbjørn Vagle. Ad Van Nederpelt. Oddrun Eikli.

Fairies dance a round dance
sky-blue in the summer forest.
Bees hum songs to it.
Listen, look, how it sparkles, echoes!

And the beetles play the violins,
soft, delicate melodies.
Butterflies fluttering show
how they draw their circles.

Above all the sun dances
shining brightly in the play of lights.
Dancers dance between the green leaves
cheerful and graceful.

Little fairy skirts you see dancing
you see dancing everywhere here.
All around in the summer dance
everything turns, shimmers, flows.

Would you like to be like the fairies
to be happy in the sun?
Close your eyes! Listen to the songs!
Join the dance!

Elfen tanzen einen Reigen
himmelblau im Sommerwald.
Bienen summen dazu Lieder.
Lausche, schau, wie’s funkelt, hallt!

Und die Käfer spieln die Geigen,
leise, zart die Melodien.
Schmetterlinge flatternd zeigen,
wie sie ihre Kreise ziehn.

Über allem tanzt die Sonne
strahlend hell im Lichterspiel.
Zwischen Blattgrün tänzeln Tänzer
heiter, fröhlich und grazil.

Elfenröckchen sind es, die du
überall hier tanzen siehst.
Rundherum im Sommertanze
alles dreht sich, schimmert, fließt.

Magst du gerne wie die Elfen
in der Sonne fröhlich sein?
Schließ dir Augen! Lausch den Liedern!
In den Reigen reih dich ein!
