An E minor piece at 58 BPM — the only piece in the collection using a minor key, giving it a cooler, more emotional quality without becoming sad. The violin melody begins on B4 (the fifth, not the tonic), creating a sense of floating rather than grounding. It works through the Em–C–G–D progression (vi–IV–I–V in the relative G major), peaks on G5 in bar 7, then descends to low E4 at the very end — the feeling of watching the first flakes settle, quiet and still. Piano pad holds each chord as a breath.
