As the track comes to a close, there is an exulting crescendo of strings, brass and woodwind. We are ultimately left with a feeling of elation and happiness, at peace with the parting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been searching for the perfect track to accompany your film&#8217;s final scene, <em>The Parting <\/em>by Kevin MacLeod is what you need.
