This is very meditative. I enjoyed this very much. The whistle reminds me of a pan flute one a Native American flute

Merci Guitarron

QuoteThis is very meditative

The meditative atmosphere is probably due to the use of the dulcimer (a real instrument, which I don't play much..) and especially the tonal pedal made with an Indian harmonium (in Soundfont, unfortunately)

You have to put this piece in its historical context: we are in the middle of the hippie musical period when Georges Harrisson, Donovan, Macca were going to learn about transcendental meditation and Indian music in an ashram in the Himalayas

I had the opportunity to do a humanitarian mission for a month a few years ago, in the Himalayas, and in Kathmandu I visited an Indian harmonium maker, a magnificent instrument...unfortunately too expensive and too heavy to be brought back to France
