Andrea Tarrodi - "Songs of the Sky - for piano and strings"

"Songs of the Sky - for piano and strings was commissioned by and written for pianist Natalya Pasichnyk. The piece is based on two folk songs; one from the Ukraine and one from Sweden. Both songs are in some way related to the sky. The Ukranian song is about a a dove with
blue and grey wings and the Swedish song is called "Klara stjärnor" which means "bright stars". - Andrea Tarrodi

I came here from a listen to "Wildwood", which made me want to explore more of Andrea Tarrodi's works. 🎉

The piano part starts off very Studio Ghibli. The strings are in a darker film entirely.
