Soft strings and silky woodwinds, smooth piano and warm human voice. All that blending together and creating a carpet of slowly moving sounds and harmonies.

I’ve been listening to relaxing music for many years. It seemed so simple, but yet deep. I thought, for me as a musician and composer it would be easy to write a relaxing music track, but it’s not. Obviously, knowledge of music theory, orchestration and arrangement does a lot, but they way it is used in that style of music is different.

Here is my first relaxing music piece. It has a purpose for a listener to achieve a state of relaxation and peacefulness; stress-relief, relaxing after a hard day’s work, study concentration and finding quiet amidst turmoil. I hope that this nature video and music calms and relaxes you.
