A nice, gentle sound. I might imagine the goddess of winter, cold, and death to be somewhat less gentle than that. But if winter, cold, and death are coming, then I guess we can only hope that they will come gently!

Very pretty sound.
I think for most of life, winter is a time of sleeping rather than death, with the awakening in springtime of course.

Milo, thank you! Where do you live - there are snow go on? In Petersburg winter are absent now: no snow, no cold. And no sunshine, grey grey sky
Forecasters promise us winter next month
Folderol, thank for comment! I agree, winter is not death, but in text mean that Marena is goddess different things, no equivalent one to one, order separate things: winter, <x1>, <x2>, <x3>, <...> and also death. May be deep sleep in this order too
I don't know, in Wiki no more words
Explorers of Slav mythos write that root "Mor", "Mora", "Mara" associated with death, in phonetic-historical links. In spring scarecrow of Marena burn on fire
But it in March, now Marena slowly rise power!

Yes, we have snow. There was a White Christmas in Utah (Western USA).

Very nice piano improv. Too short ! To compensate I've played it three times in a row.
Winter ? What winter ? No snow, no cold. Was -14 a month ago, now back to almost lawn mowing.
Cheers.

Jonetsu, thank you for comment! I glad, that you want more lenght of this music
Usually many people no have any time, life follow in mode "go quickly, say short, we must run, run"
So music in web more 4 minutes per track - people deside: "he thief our time!"
Therefore, I am embarrassed to plays for a long time in track, although before the Internet-age I recording solid improvisations quite often for 30 minutes. Or maybe I'm just getting old, exhausted
Now in some Nord-region over -40C
Happy New Year, dear!

I like these sounds very much -- they bring crystal bells to mind.
I find myself wondering what it might sound like if the main voice gently panned (maybe even with a light phaser).
I liked this one a lot -- it took me somewhere, that is for certain.
