Well, this song took me a while to finish: some weeks on composition and 14 hours on mixing. But in the end it turned out as i wanted it to be, so hurray! :D

So first i will explain the technical details about the song and then i'm gonna go into the art-related detail.
The tonality, as you've probably guessed by the title, is F Minor, which i've found to be very good for medieval-like songs, Liszt's Totentanz as an example. I used Guitar Pro 5 to put everything together (notes, instruments, time signatures, etc) on the MIDI file, and then i used FL Studio 11 to mix everything (dynamics, equalization, etc). And instead of using VSTs, i used solely soundfonts, because, well, i do not have much money. :P And they have a decent sound quality imo.

The song is divided on two movements, one being the "Preludio Alla Waltz" (because of it's 3/4 time signature and dance-form structure) and the other being the "Capriccio Fantasioso" (because of, well, being like Caprices and Fantasias), in which the time signature changes to 2/4.

Mvt.1 (Andante Majestoso): 00:00 - 01:48/Mvt.2 (Andante Moderato): 01:48 - 03:28

Also, there is a main theme to the song, which is then repeated troughout the song in form of variations. Try to find it! :P
Now moving on to the art-related details. When i first glanced this artwork, i knew i would need to do a classical piece for it, i just needed to know how it should be. After some time, i thought of a story for it and the song would "narrate" it through it's feelings.
The story is as it follows:
