About a year ago just the first phrase of this came to me quite out of the blue. At the time I couldn't think of anyway to develop it, but fortunately saved it anyway. Then I dug it out while looking for something to use for the KVR October contest. Conveniently, this wanted just a single melody line, optionally with percussion. Such a narrow focus enabled me to produce a full-length track, but once I submitted it, I then returned to it and was able to expand it to the full track now on bandcamp here:- https://willgodfrey.bandcamp.com/track/sonja

Listening back, there is nothing I'd want to change.

Oh, and the name? I haven't a clue. Like that first phase it just appeared in my mind from nowhere.

Now that's a very very beautiful song folderol!

I hear a very profound sadness in this melody and the warmth is certainly at it's place.

Well done

Not really a change, but reprising part of the fine intro flute solo at the end of the song might be nice.
Sonja might like it. Lots of nice sounds, I think from a synth with which you enjoy a friendly bias
The song has an eastern European feel to it, as if surviving a difficult winter alone.

I also enjoy your 'Gone Fishin' ' and 'Out There' songs, very relaxing. They remind me of Christian Henson's chats from on the hiking trails.
Have you made his aquaintance, perchance?
Cheers

What a lovely tune, Will!

Very nice track with great synth sound design. I love the slightly exotic scale used.

Wonderful melodic line and sounds!
Well done!

Well, I'm delighted that this works so well for people

A thoughtful, beautiful melody, wonderful! The meadows and forests imaged with the music, and it was as if a forest fairy was about to emerge from the oak grove
