Summary:
Based on the reference to "John Surman style," this piece is likely a form of contemporary European jazz with strong atmospheric and possibly folk influences. The key is inferred as A minor (Amin) or potentially a related mode like Dorian, reflecting Surman's often melancholic or introspective modal harmony. A moderate tempo (around 80 BPM) is suggested, allowing for lyrical expression on the lead instrument, which is very likely a Baritone Saxophone, Surman's primary voice. Synth pads would provide the characteristic atmospheric textures often found in his work, complemented by a supportive bass line (perhaps acoustic or fretless electric) and subtle, possibly textural drumming rather than aggressive timekeeping. The mood is therefore Introspective and Atmospheric, fitting Surman's distinctive blend of jazz improvisation with ambient soundscapes. An ABA structure (Theme - Development/Improvisation - Theme reprise) provides a common and suitable framework for this style.
