Milton's Waltz from Cardinal by Jacob Chen
I had just started writing tunes and I was seeking to write a minor tune. I didn’t have any particular inspirations other than it had to be minor, so I took it to Facebook to name the tune. My friend, Stephanie, had said her cat, Milton, seemed to like the tune as she played the recording.
