Back in the day when I had a radio program, I remember playing “violin phase” by Steve Reich. As I remember, the backbone was a simple musical phrase similar to “Mary had a little lamb.” Well within your current musical vocabulary. Making something like that would certainly give you some practice in using multiple tracks.

I am wondering if you partake in giving yourself a weekly lesson utilising a method book. I used the Muller Rusch series. I tried to do a page a week. Some weeks were harder than others. It forces you to expand areas of technique such as string plucking and simultaneously playing two strings at a time. Playing the upper area of the finger board did not occur until the third book.

@JohnG -
I have to believe something from this thread would work!
Almost everything here seems good for twilight.

Like, Paddys Rambles Through the Park? Only I'm not so sure thesession.org has it correct, because it's not a waltz & there's more to Dezi's version. But, the 2nd, 4th or 5th version there might work for you.
Maybe time to use all that software? If you beat me to it, I'd love to know - won't have undivided attention to play with PreSonus for a few more weeks.

Need some help! I'm looking for some specific mood tune(s) and I can't think of a genre to search for.Imagine that time at dusk, just before nightfall and you're standing on a shore of quiet, isolated lake with a gentle breeze while looking toward the fading light of day. The stars shine brightly overhead and a light mist is beginning to form above the water. Now you want to play a quiet, meaningful tune to reflect your surroundings and the peace that you feel.
Some tunes I've found that are close to what I want, but just don't feel right:
I Will Find You (Last of the Mohicans)
May It Be (The Lord of the Rings)
I Could Never Say Goodbye (Enya)
The Wolf Song - Nordic Lullaby - Vargsången
Lullaby of Woe (The Witcher) ~ Ashley Serena
Misty Mountains (The Lord of the Rings)
@JohnG ill post this here since you asked...
I think the first tune in this set fits that description when played like he does which brings up a great point.. inveatigatr tunes you normally hear faster and see if playing slower fits.
here is the sheet music
