Spring comes to Mumi-dol

Post by psyocean »

Hi, dears!

I wrote the composition under the impression of surprisingly lively book Tove Jansson "Everything about the Moomins". The book is huge, almost 900 pages, and it's so well written that I want to re-read it again to immerse myself in the fantasy world of the pretty Moomin family. There was a period when they had to live in harsh conditions in the north, where the winter was fierce and the great terrible Mora wandered through the forests - the incarnation of cold, and tried to harden the hearts of all the inhabitants of those lands and kill all the living by cold. The Mumi family were forced to jointly resist the terrible Mora, and they survived in an unequal fight and after a fierce winter waited for the spring, when the floods of warmth and life flooded everything around, awakening the nature with myriad green leaves, field flowers, chirping birds. And thawed the souls, in the family quarrels calmed down, they could enjoy life on the sunny glades in the fertile land :)

First draft was created in Musescore, that midi-exporting file went to eating by sequencer Rosegarden, than midi-stream sounded via QSampler and Sonatina Symphonic Orchestra (SFZ-samples lib), tracks mixed in Ardour.
Already run-in "Nano-technology" :mrgreen:
