That you can read from a stave for your lute puts you a huge step ahead of me and my guitar.  Only staffs I can read are tuba/sousaphone with a bass clef and even them I'm sure I'd be very rusty.

I still can't get over the perfect tone you manage in recording your instrument.  And the harmonies sound fantastic.

So peaceful, Christian! it's amazing how you get such a full sound with those tiny compositions. Some moments are really amazing and full of ambience.

I hope we could work something out this week. I have an idea I think you could like it. Hope to send you a sketch in a couple of days

Very, very pretty. Lovely to hear folk music. True folk music.

Thank you. I had to look up sousaphone. That looks interesting... The staff thing is a different way of composing, I think, it's like trying a 500-year-old DAW. Not better than Live or Logic, just a different approach.

Thank you Sir! Will do!

Appreciate it.

Thank you guys!
It's funny because I actually didn't think of this arrangement as peaceful. I thought the harmonies were quite dissonant. But the more I listened to it, the less dissonant it becomes :-)

Yeah, I'm game! Glad you liked this one... it is a very small composition, indeed, but if all you have is that lute and a piece of paper, it's like you shrink and delve in there. Well you know what I mean, when you restrict yourself to vintage drum machines 'n such.

Your lute playing is awesome! I felt like I was in a quiet park

Wow, this instrument has some really amazing overtones! Those ringing harmonics are extremely beautiful. Great harmonisation! I got chills in the final chords!

If your licensing for this song allowed derivative works, I would chop it all up for my next week submission.
