Default Claire De Lune from Suite Bergamasque by Claude Debussy

Well i tired it out for a while and a bloody difficult arrangement it is by James Edwards - very good for numerous exercises....
Getting closer to it...hope you enjoy

Steve,

That was amazing, absolutely stunning! What a fantastic rendition of that gorgeous piece. I am so used to hearing that played on the piano, that I know that song intimately in my mind. So to hear you play that so beautifully on the guitar!

I am awestruck! I was just as entranced watching and listening to you play that as you seemed to have been while playing the song.

Just wonderful!

- Glenn

Bravo! Fantastic playing! Emotion, tone, articulation. Very impresive. I love seeing your passion! Man those false harmonics were so clean! Anyway, you have inspired me!

You can't play Claire De Lune on guitar !~!~!

Unless...............you play it like that. Well done Steve, obviously a lot of work went into that piece, it was worth it...............

Wonderful !! Thanks so much! This is one of those pieces that is really worth learning, and you'll play it for many decades to come. I've started on it at least a half dozen times, and I don't think I have whatever it takes to learn it.

I hope you get yourself to a professional recording studio and share the result with us one of these days.

Wow... I'm with Rich... you can't play that tune on guitar. Except... you just did! Superb! You never cease to amaze me, Steve. Absolutely beautiful.
