I love music. Who doesn't? Okay I know some people...

So here's this song. I heard it in a movie once and fell in love with it and the movie.

Warm strings start soft, get even softer before the build. The cellos and flute provide tension. The volume increases so quickly I get chills.

Timpani!

Half way through the repetitive melody puts a spin on itself. Cellos create different rhythyms from the expected bum--bumbum-bum-bum and change to more syncopation, almost offbeat but

Minor breaks to major and a lulling bridge played sweetly by the clarinet and oboe, the same note, but very different sounds, violins playing the background, but only sprinkling themselves in when necessary. Strings barely playing, but still audible, now they split amongst themselves and the rest of the orchestra fills in. Back to minor

Timpani!!

Something in the background continues the bridge while the rest of the musicians go back to the repetitive melody I now know (and love by heart).

Allegro and major chords breaks the tension.

Loud loud loud loud. Soft Soft Soft soft. Loud loud loud loud. Tri-pull-et softs.

Piccolo and french horn softly continue the while the strings pluck along. This could end with me falling asleep.
