Fantastic job with the instrumentation (and instrument choice)! Nothing sounds super out of place. I especially dig the harps in The Garden's Secret cuz the velocities are exactly what they needed to be. Court of Flowers is excitable too, the only thing I would add is that I feel you could de-quantize the staccatos on the bass/cello a bit more and mess with some velocities to get them more natural, but that's just sound-wise. The instrumentation is still great!

Description
This is my contribution of the Impressions Composing Jam Mystery edition.
I’ve imagined the game “Fleur and the Secret Garden” where the protagonist Fleur, a little dreamy girl, meets the chaotic witch Zwiebel, who rules the secret garden. The game is thought as something like Hades or Garden of witches, with a top down view and hand drawn 2D sprites.
For the Jam I took the first Leitmotiv and the hard mode. If you are interested in listening to the looping versions of the song, download the Loops.Zip
SONGS:
Fleur's Theme Length: 01:28 Loop: Bar 0 (00:00) – Bar 34 (01:23)
A little theme that shows the gentle and uplifting nature of the main character Fleur.
The Garden's Secret Length: 01:05 Loop: Bar 0 (00:00) – Bar 21 (01:05)
This was the first song of this project and captures the atmosphere of the garden and also sets the mood for the rest of the songs, since it got somewhat of a Hollow Knight vibe.
The Court of Flowers Length: 01:17 Loop: Bar 3 (00:05) – Bar 27 (01:07)
This is one potential boss theme. It is styled after a string sextet with 2 Violins, 1 Viola, 1 Cello, 1 Double Bass and 1 Harp.
Zwiebel the Witch Length: 01:10 Loop: Bar 3 (00:03) – Bar 38 (00:53)
This is the theme of the antagonist of the game Zwiebel. It captures her silly and chaotic nature.
Total time: 05:00 minutes
