The Skeleton Ballerina (Original Composition)

Description

It was originally going to be called "Waltz of the Skeleton Swabbie" but I think that the harpsichord and the celesta wouldn´t fit for the whole "seaman theme", wouldn´t you agree?

I love how this dancing music sounds both playful and also a little.. melancholic. Mostly good, with happy parts, but there's still that certain uneasy and almost adventurous parts in it. Anyway, it's just the way I love waltz-like music, it makes it more storytelling in my opinion! :D

The different kinds of instruments playing their melodies make this piece exciting, too. There's never really monotone, repetitive, or boring moments. It all flows like a river, goes up and down, and has an exciting end.

There may be one thing that bothers me a little bit, but it's probably an acoustic problem that happened when you recorded this. These little bells(?) that make the rhythm in this music. They're the very first thing you hear when the music begins. They seem very high-pitched in sound, and I keep hearing that high tone during the whole soundtrack which distracts from the melodies of the other instruments a little. It's almost as annoying as that high-pitched sound in the background when you turn on a very old TV (not sure if you know this kind of thing, though).

Again, this may be a recording error, but the music would be absolutely perfect it you could soften that tone of these bells a little.
