This bit of tuneage was intended to be the soundtrack to a short story I started writing back in December 2004. Maybe I’ll finish it sometime. The tentative outline is available for perusal (scroll to the bottom). Most of the songs are sparse, gentle pieces. They’re all quite beautiful and it’s got a good flow.
