Something I was noodling around with in the newly commissioned EZ Keys 2 and I added a flute duet to it.  It took me a long time to come up with a title for it.  While surfing the web the other day I wandered onto some pictures of fancy hedge work and I thought "Topiary".  Perfect!  So the song is named "Topiary" and I gathered some royalty free photos of different topiary work to make a video slideshow.  Hope you enjoy the sight and sound.

ok I can tell this is you but I would say this is different than most of the songs of yours I have heard.
The flute dances along nicely to the piano tickling...
reminds me of something my favorite band Kansas would do (they did actually use flute once or twice in songs and most of their stuff had violin on it)....
like the various instruments that pop in from time to time to that steady piano and flute...
a lovely, lovely piece here JB

The cello or the other strings keep the time very well...

Nice instrumental.
It would make a lovely period drama theme tune.
Nice use of different instruments.

This is a lovely instrumental John. Great use of instruments and arrangement. I love the flute. It builds up nicely and it could definitely be used in a tv program soundtrack. Really professional job. Great video too

Very nice instrumental, John. That flute has a beautiful singing melody and the piano, strings etc compliment it perfectly.
