I think this was the music used on German TV just before it went off the air a little after midnight in the '80s.

Since this memory made me think back, I suddenly recalled a little piano piece I liked to play a portion of when I was a child. I felt it was very pretty. I just looked it up online and found out it is an easy listening song by a Canadian pianist, Frank Mills, who became famous for it in the '70s:

"Music Box Dancer" (Frank Mills) - piano only version
Tim O'Neill, pianist
