Re: Don`t cry for me …

Hi friends

I just coincidentally saw that my upload has had more than 40.000 views! I am honored.
But I also need to disclose the name of my great singing friend. She is called Ewa Palenta and comes from Poland.
I just love working together with her!

Re: Driving home for …

Thanks John

I just wonder of what you find “different”. I think my version is pretty close - maybe too close - to the original?

Cheers

Don`t cry for me …

This song belongs to the best of ALW. You only need to hear one or two chords - and you`re back in Buenos Aires.

I have been waiting for you (ABBA)

Hi

I recently made this recording of a rather unknown ABBA song. I believe it is one of the groups best songs - and maybe my best recording ever … :D

The girls voice is so sweet - and so is she! :oops:

Re: Somewhere over the rainbow

Thanks Hugh

Well - my singing friend is more pretty than I - so no harm done! We played at a local cultural centre in my town , close to Elsinore and Hamlets castle.

Before a very nice and energetic audience.

First we take Manhattan …

Hi here is a genuine terrorist song … "First We Take Manhattan" is written by the Canadian singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen. It was originally recorded by American singer Jennifer Warnes. It appears that the lyrics is a genuine recommendation of rebellion. https://app.box.com/s/bahh9ji8duql...

Thanks a lot Hugh. This started as an experiment in adding two styles together. At the end I am quite pleased with the result.

Re: Your objectives when arranging a piece of music to play?

Hi guys Interesting answers etc. But I think that some of you got me wrong. We can all - if we are able to do it - try to make our own interpretation of the songs we play. We change orchestration, voices, rhythm, improvise etc. etc. Fine - BUT to me there are limits. If we leave the essence - the id...

Doing this is great great fun. As Hugh says you have got to use your imagination on the spot. No time for hesitation. Let your mind fly away and try to follow the chords.
