Sad Piano Music Sparse Minor Take

Over three minutes of minor-key piano with unusually long silences between phrases, a wide dynamic range and no percussion at all. Dark, quiet and very slow-moving.
For serious documentary subjects, grief and memorial films, and long dramatic scenes that need music without momentum. The sparseness and the length together make it unusually patient.
Three minutes nineteen, with the longest silences on the album between phrases. In D minor — one of four minor keys here, and no two of those four are the same.
