氷湖 / Frozen Lake

Instrumental music inspired by a vast, quiet snowy plain, Calm and steady pacing, emotionally moving but understated, Bright and ethereal atmosphere, gently shifting between major and minor keys, Smooth modulations that blur the boundary between hope and sadness, Ocarina as the main melodic instrument, warm and breathy, floating over soft strings and piano, Light ambient pads to create a sense of open, frozen space, Minimalistic arrangement with gradual emotional development, No vocals, minimal or no percussion, Dreamlike, transparent, and quietly touching
