Haunting melody

It is 8:40 Am, and I am sitting in front of my computer and watching Fox News.
I turn down the volume of the T.V.- am I hearing things. I hear the faint sounds of a flute or a pan flute- I can't make out the tune.  I try to  listen more intently- it is a mysterious tune- and it is  nice.

I do not know who is playing this instrument- I do not know if it is a record or an actual person performing, but I find it soothing and strange.  It is comforting and as I listen it becomes an escape from the news - I try to make out the tune- but I can't make it out.

As I listen to it , it reminds me of the movie "Waking Ned Divine" if you haven't seen it rent it- it is a funny, warm comedy with a beautiful soundtrack.

I do not know who is playing this music  in Americana Finnmark, but I want to thank them for some beautiful music.  Keep it up- for soon  winter will be here, and the windows will be shut and I may not be able to hear the music- but while the warm weather is still with us I will enjoy your concerts.
Thank you- whoever you are.
