Wake Me Theme - Is a short orchestrated (string quartet) version of Mike's original song idea. This version (without vocal) is just one of a number of versions and styles I played with.

Uncertain Happiness - was originally two chords that Mike wanted me to base some ideas around. As they could be played in 3/4 time, I decided to create a classical style waltz which allowed me to match the feeling I needed to convey, a feeling of uncertain happiness. This version includes a piano which makes it a 'piano quintet'

Uncertainty - This is another piece based on the same chord structure as 'Uncertain Happiness' above. I wanted to create a sort of 'drone' rather plodding backdrop. To add a feeling of uncertainty, I used a rather unpredictable flute which contrasted against the piano and strings.

As always feedback is very welcome.
