Little piece of whimsey about betrayal anger and then acceptance.

You might want to equip yourself with a medium quality cigar before embarking on this journey...

Well I don't know about anyone else, Nick, but the only thing 'wrong' with this is it's miles too piggin short!! :o
When you brought the synth-strings(?) in I was just getting going. No matter, you're the boss.
I enjoyed listening to this clear, well-produced and played offering. Whimsey indeed. :o
Well done.  8)

It's a fantastic track. Just lamentably too short.
We are here on Earth to fart around. Don't let anybody tell you any different

Like the others have said, a little short, but a good tune.  It would be worth your time to add another minute to it.

Great song. Short? Maybe... But everything is there-good melody, arrangement and playing. Well done.

Thanks for the comments all.

I remember watching the Man from Uncle TV series (stay with me on this) and being fascinated at how the tiny pieces of incidental music between scenes had so much composition and told such a story in themselves; in only a few seconds.  I've never successfully written anything which works at only a very short duration, but that thought is always at the back of my mind.

So this is deliberately short and even then still way longer than it could be if I had more skill.  I'm not sure what the word vignette means but it seems appropriate to use.  So it's a vignette, like a bonsai tree or a haiku poem.

It's a bit like the old Colin Chapman story at Lotus Cars; they didn't reduce weight, they added lightness.

Liked this from the first note! The piano sounds so sweet! Nice melody! Well done on each way! I wish it would have been longer.
