Thanks, Chris! What a challenging tune it is
because an experienced jazz violinist and educator like you
is annoyed with all these weird 3rd double stops! I love your
short ending solo.

Be careful what you ask for!

Chris thanks for tackling this tune. It is reassuring to hear your comments regarding its difficulty. I learnt a simple version years ago and as my skills and ear improved I kept getting closer to the true tune . The thirds are murder as is the diminished run but onward and upward before my fingers give out . i am re-inspired by you.

Thanks Gregan. I'm very pleased to hear you found this inspiring!

Playing the whole tone scale at the end makes the 'pending' 3 months work worth while :). A beautiful piece of work with excellent close-up edits. Complimenti !
