Lost in the Wilderness
You are lost in the woods and you are afraid. You finally get your courage and find a way out of the woods. Some of the leads are a lot like some of my other songs. The chords have been changed to protect the innocent! If you get that then you are as old as I am! BiaB style = Orchestral 4/4 w/harp Tempo = 45 BPM Bass - Kontakt - Kirk Hunter - Virtuoso bass Piano - Kontakt - Glass Gong Guitar - Kontakt - Kirk Hunter - Virtuoso strings Strings = Kontakt - Amadeus Full String Ensemble Flute - Kontakt - Fairytale Flute Solo Cello - Kontakt - Amadeus solo cello Choir = EastWest - Symphonic Choir - full choir Solo Violin - Kontakt - Kirk Hunter - Guarenrius violin romantic I am playing the nylon string guitar and via my keyboard controller the flute, choir, solo cello, and the solo violin.
OK, a random thought; Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

I think I am as old as you cause all I want is "just the facts ma'am"....this is so peaceful...it doesn't strike me as "Lost in the Wilderness" but more like "Interceding Calm" or "The Dawning"...it is calming and relaxing to listen to...thanks Mario for a few moments of tranquility...there you go I would call it "Tranquility" or perhaps "Protecting the Innocent"...oh! oh! I know "Mind Your Own Business Dan"

Mario, this is why one cannot say "this is the best one yet" because in your case almost happens every time, so I won't say that. Simply Fantastic!

Hi Mario ..,.
Really, really tranquil and mesmerizing. It sounds like it could a backing track for a scene from a Disney movie. besides the tranquility, the feelings I'm left with are innocence and peace.
Simply gorgeous. A tip of the hat for an excellent work.

Indeed, if I ever do get lost in the wild while hearing this, I think I will be in peace with it all ;-).
But this is really beautiful, Mario!

THis reminds me of the calm that comes over one when they realize they are lost, and after the initial panic..... they sit down, gather their wits and formulate a plan.
As someone who trains to find the lost and the missing.... we actually teach young children to "Hug-A-Tree" if they ever get lost. It lets us find them so much faster. Hug a tree..... or in other words...stop moving around..... stay dry and stay hydrated and stay in one place.
This is a very peaceful song you have created. That last chime note is when the dog licks your face and you know you've been found.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Boy, another fantastic one Mario. If you've missed anything it could only be the title. It seems to be the consensus, me included, that if I were lost in this wilderness I wouldn't want to be found anytime soon ... I like it a lot!

OK, a random thought; Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

om, that is a great vision for this song. I would have never thought of that. You may have given me an idea for another song!

Thanx so much Herb. We have always told our kids if you get lost in a store think Ts. Either go to the toilet or toys and stay there and we will come for you.
