This is quite a good recording considering we put it all together in just over an hour's work. Well done to everyone involved! (There is almost no audio editing either)

Things You Might Want to Know:

Q: Why are there no vocals?
A: This arrangement is commissioned specifically for a concert (which took place in March 2015) featuring a choir comprising of children with disabilities. I was asked to record the accompaniment only so that the choir could use it to practice. Please feel free to sing along :)

Q: How does the solo violin part work?
A: The concertmaster (lead violinist) has two violins onstage - one 'normal' violin, and another with all the strings tuned down a semitone (half-step) in order to imitate the timbre of a fiddle.
