For this piece, I started a little late, so I wanted to focus on just the piano as the main voice and get more creative harmonically than I normally do. I started at my own keyboard improvising a little, then moved into MuseScore for the main portion of the composition, then Cakewalk for mixing and mastering. I got inspired to add an electric piano as a countermelody and some percussion during the B section once I was already in Cakewalk, so that's why those don't show up in the score itself. 

I imagine this as a pretty introspective theme, maybe playing in the background when a character is reflecting on past events. Although, the theme originally started at an even slower tempo, and I came up with the B section later on, so it could also be more of a walking-through-town theme.
