Rolling Tumbleweed

An upbeat orchestral arrangement that creates a light atmosphere of fun and carefree playfulness. Only short, but manages to instantly capture a light hearted mood with pizzicato strings, woodwinds and brass, accompanied by some light percussive charm. A little bit kitsch, of course, but with class and quality.

Light orchestral track of 2 contrasting halves. A soft piano intro sets a pensive tone as the piece builds up, using a delicate solo violin to enhance the mood and woodwinds and strings to grow intensity. As the track continues, so the mood changes as it swoons into a full orchestral celebration of romance and dance, using dynamic strings - shorts, pizzicato, legato and tremolo - over a supportive orchestral backdrop including piano and marimba. What starts as reflective and fragile transforms into an uplifting, romantic and joyous piece.

Spritely orchestral cartoon music. With more than a hint of comedy about it, expect a light and playful orchestration of strings, brass, woodwinds and most prominently, xylophone melodies. Bouncing along at a fast pace, it's bound to put a smile on your face and a spring in your step whilst radiating happiness and positivity in a glorious carnival atmosphere.

Enchanting orchestral piece. A calm and relaxing piano intro builds through light strings and brass into a fairytale of regal elegance, further enhanced by the spirited glockenspiel. Brass fanfares, sweeping strings, fast violin motifs, timpani and percussion all create a ceremonial feel to this grand, uplifting track. 3 distinct sections give variety to the music, ending with a classic fanfare.

Diverse orchestral piece, with a fantasy, cartoon edge. Fast paced and percussive, featuring animated instrumentation and orchestration throughout, it only slows down the intensity for a mysterious, magical breakdown section before picking up the frantic mood once more. Expect fast string runs, pizzicato passages, chiming glockenspiel, brooding brass, snappy percussion and a whole lot of playfulness in this dynamic, stylised track.

Wistful orchestral piece for chamber strings. Deliberately slightly ambiguous in rhythm as well as mood, it is at times playful, at times unsettled. With hints of romance and longing through the use of sweeping legato, to carefree pizzicato and eager staccatissimo, it's a diverse piece of 20th century style music showcasing many articulations and emotions, the one constant being it's tenderness throughout.
