It seems my reply to the OP has revived this thread. There were only four replies as 10/4/2024 to this post. I commented on 1/25 that I thought the playing was beautiful and even called him "meastro," that's a compliment. Now all of a sudden there are 20 posts here in just a few days. Hmmmm.

Yes and your playing is quite excellent.

Youre welcome

I like the end. In fact, I like it all!

It's a beautiful arrangement and quite well done. I said that in my post.

What I wrote was meant as constructive criticism to help make it just a tiny bit better, IMO. Some people don't see that, though, they just take any type of critique as an attack. If so, that's their shortcoming. I guess they're just perfect in all ways.

On the other hand, you can shine someone on by telling them how "wonderful" their quite mid performance was, which I see happen here a lot, but that's really not helping them, in fact, it's the opposite of that.

I was the first person to reply to this thread. Clearly the OP prefers your comments to mine!
