This is very soothing. At times it is quite sad and it puts a lump in my throat to hear the strings ebbing and flowing throughout the song. The uplifting portion starting at 0:44 was masterfully executed, I thought it was a perfect addition to the song overall. There are times when an instrument suddenly cuts out and it just briefly messes with the mood of the song, but that would be an easy fix. I think this is a great piece! Well done! :)
