[Prélude] (&) The Wind May Be Beautiful - by Timbre

I know this is crazy late, but I just found out about this beautiful music a short bit ago.  I think you should hear it, too.  (& as a side note, & as mentioned, hopefully I'll be able to get back into this - & earlier, too.......)
Timbre is from Nashville, TN.  She (that is, Timbre Cierpke) is a classically trained harpist & vocalist who's music has been featured on such albums as Cool Hand Luke's "The Fires of Life" [Floodgate; 2004]; mewithoutYou's "Brother, Sister" [Tooth & Nail; 2006] & their latest "It's All Crazy! It's All False! It's All a Dream! It's Alright" [T&N; 2009] (& yes, I just enjoy saying & typing out the full name of the album); Anathallo's "Floating World" [ind; 2006], & more (including one of Hundred Year Storm's, but I can't find which...).  Timbre has released 2 solo albums (tracks featuring family members, choirs & other assorted orchestral instruments) to date: the first being "Winter Comes To Wake You" [ind] - released April 16th, 2008; then "Little Flowers" [ind] on May 1st, 2010.  Currently, she has started a KickStarter page to help with funding a new [family] Christmas album.  These songs are from "Little Flowers".
