Of course it had to be a forward! It is beautiful!! Love the guitar, so simple and pure, and the voices too. Who sings?

Why not rather try your hand at making a fresh arrangement, thuogh?RegardsLucas

Thank you all for your kind words! The singer is Louisa Hunter-Bradley (both parts). I think she's in Germany at the moment (I'm in Australia). She had a streaming cold that day and nailed it 2 takes!Thank you Vicky for your question about Public Domain songs because it reminds me we should register our arrangement with APRA (originally it sat in the middle of another song).

hey there,I might be stepping off in the wrong direction....I saw a listing for a classical piece....and I invited my close friend over for recording solo guitar tracks, some original arrangements, some improvised in a classical style, and a few arrangements in a book....here's the thing...I'm not playing on this; I'm just engineering....Can I submit this?I'm not signed up with Taxi as a studio....the guitarist and I are close friends and signed the contract for using tracks, but am I cheating if i submit it?thanks,vtbp
