The Quiet Place

Ambient piano and orchestra merge to form a soothing, atmospheric soundcape of calm positivity, hope and sincerity. Starting with light textures, pads and drones to form an airy canvas, the piano sketches its simple theme for the orchestra to colour in. Rich strings and prominent cello serenely guide us through the emotions, floating on a delicate wave of peace and harmony. Cinematic and uplifting whilst maintaining a relaxed ambience.

Beautiful and elegant cinematic track. With a light and uplifting feeling, it uses string harmonics and soft piano 'question/answer' phrasing to develop the foundation as it builds to a livelier theme featuring pizzicato and legato strings, bright piano and an expressive cello lead. Positive and full of optimism with a delicate sensitivity.

Calming cinematic ambience tinged with a melancholic reflection. At heart, it's a minimalist track of simple, reverbed guitar gradually being overtaken by soft arpeggiated piano, gentle strings and a soulful cello lead to become a soothing escape into another world, albeit one which hints at unknown wonders and potential darkness. Slow and methodical with a dreamlike quality.

Gloriously ambient track with a heavy cinematic leaning. Building a bed of tension through soft piano and strings, it breaks into an expressive outpouring of reflective emotion, using a dynamic cello lead and chiming guitar. It's a theme that returns with more complexity and intensity, but manages to keep it's fragile, delicate sensitivity with a calming yet weighty vibe. Slow paced, and all the more powerful for it.

A serenely beautiful slice of Celtic whistfulness, enough to transport you effortlessly through the rolling mists and enchanted forests of an idyllic setting to an ethereal place beyond. Soft, intimate strings lay a foundation for the lyrical Irish flute and pipes, made all the more magical by airy vocal pads and gentle percussive thrills. Slightly sad and regretful, but spiritual, evocative and comforting at the same time.

Orchestral pop/easy listening track. Using a gentle, repeating piano intro as the base to build on with light percussion, woodwinds and strings, it turns more cinematic as it bursts into life with drums, bass and full legato strings. An underlying arpeggiated ostinato becomes the main theme, joined by brass and a string counter melody, gradually building in intensity for the climactic ending before dramatically cutting to the original solo piano to finish. An uplifting, inspiring and ceremonial piece full of musical hooks.
