When my sister and I were little ones, Mom would sometimes wind up a beautiful music box to help us get to sleep. I love classic music boxes! As I started to create this tune, it instantly called that memory to my mind. I hope you enjoy it, and perhaps it might help you to remember an lovely old music box in your family 🙂

I recorded this on my webcam during a thunderstorm, so you might hear gentle rain and thunder in the background. I'm playing my Kurt Simerman dulcimer tuned to DAD (three strings), and run through my Roland Cube amp. This tune is in the key of G.

Music is ©️2026 Carol L Hatfield

My solo dulcimer album is available on Bandcamp, Amazon, Apple Music/iTunes, Pandora, Tidal, and iHeartRadio. There are links on my homepage below my bio/page description.
