Time traveller's ballad

Music Composer is needed in South Africa.

I am writing a time travel romance novel and would like to commission an original orchestral ballad to accompany my book’s release. The piece will be called “Time Traveller’s Ballad” and should fit within a classic or film-style orchestral sensibility, inspired by artists such as Hans Zimmer, but with a unique touch: I would prefer it to start with woodwind, drawing on my own experience in a symphonic wind orchestra, and then to expand into a full orchestral sound. The melody is a lullaby sung by the main character from 2026 Cape Town; she sings lyrics in Old English, the meaning of which is revealed through the story and an included phonetic pronunciation guide. The song isn’t long—only two verses—and also draws inspiration from Celtic music. I would like someone who can collaborate closely to match the mood, and I am hoping for a young, creative composer who sees this as an opportunity for their name to be associated with what may one day become a film adaptation.

Budget range:
Micro Project

Examples:
Hans Zimmer The way he brings in the full orchestral backing after starting out with minimal often strings. I would prefer the starting to be woodwind, having played in a symphonic wind orchestra before. I also like celtic music. Note it only has 2 verses so is not long.
