Another Piano Piece

Since they said jazz was okay, I am considering this. Please comment. Due Thursday.

PIANO-Based INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by an EXCLUSIVE Music Library that's connected with many TV Production Companies and Showrunners for a Major Network Show!

This Library is looking for a bunch of Instrumental Cues in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references we got directly from them:

"Fly" by Ludovico Einaudi

"Comptine d'un autre été, l'après-midi" by Yann Tiersen

Quoting the Library: "We need pieces in a range of moods from sad, humorous, tongue-in-cheek, and fun, as well as drama for driving moments. The pieces could also be jazz-adjacent. We really want to try and keep the whole show feeling like it’s scored."

Please submit top-notch Piano-based Instrumental Cues that could help set the tone in a range of scenes in a TV show. Your arrangements can include some additional instrumentation along with the piano – but please be sure that piano remains the base and focal point of your pieces. We recommend crafting your Cues around a singular motif and mood, and creating a sense of forward momentum and dynamics by layering instrumentation in and out as they progress. Your production and any software sounds or samples you use should be high-quality and fresh, as nothing dated-sounding or obviously MIDI-driven will work, here.

All submissions should be at least 90 seconds long, and can run up to 2 minutes (a little bit longer is fine). Well-crafted, buttoned/stinger endings are required – do NOT submit anything with faded endings. Do NOT copy the referenced tracks in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.

I'm a fan of solo/Jazz/Classical piano. Your composition sounds excellent.

HOWEVER - of the text in the listing, this sentence most caught my attention:
"We need pieces in a range of moods from sad, humorous, tongue-in-cheek, and fun, as well as drama for driving moments."
That description alone makes me think they're looking more for uptempo, snappy music... not so much laid back.
But - I could be toadily wrong about that.

My 2 cents.
If you've got some that jams along - that might be a better fit... ?

Your mileage may vary.
Good luck.

You're probably right about my piece not fitting any of those moods.
