Summer Nights by the Southern Sea

 Blue tag = for a demonstration only; not for sale.  One more symphonic piece; this is the 2nd movement from the Suite for Oboe and Orchestra. The mysterious feel and relaxed flow of this music, the rhythmic elements of the bolero, the sound of castanets, and mid-eastern intonations remind of hot summer nights somewhere near Spain.  –  Symphony orchestra, oboe    //    Length 2:55, 82 bpm, 4/4

Sparkles of Sunlight on Snow Crust

Neo impressionism? – Maybe. This is a cue with a feel of rather rapid moving through a winter landscape – maybe, it’s about skying from a hill in a snowy forest, or just driving through a backroad. You can feel the snowdrift, the texture of the sparkly crust. The absence of the metric signature adds a sense of openness. 

Synthesizers  //  Length 1:58,  122 bpm,  No signature

Siciliana

Blue tag = for a demonstration only; not for sale.  This is the final movement of the suite for oboe and orchestra. This piece was conceived as a scene from a festival, masquerade. The crowd feels exited, dancing and intermingling. Suddenly, Pierrot occurred, but even his plaintive theme ends in lightful major with a hope for love, and the mass happily rushes to party again.

Reminiscences of the Ballet

Blue tag = for a demonstration only; not for sale. This piece was conceived as a movement of a suite for oboe and orchestra (III, Scherzo). Its dancy character and theatrical imagery gives a positive association with a scene from a ballet. Lush orchestration helps create a powerful and festive climax.

The excerpt between 1:01 and 1:14 strongly associates with a festive event like a victory or a massive celebration, and could, probably, be used separately.
