Another good one Bert. Well done.

This music sets up very well for the classical guitar. Was it written for it? or are you arranging from another instrument. Just curious.
In any case, it works well!

Hi Andre,
Glad you enjoy it. It's an arrangement. I've taken the melody from the piano score, chose the chords I though were appropriate and tried to keep the bass line as fluent as possible. Don't know if it can still pass for a tango though, when comparing it to this

Thanks for your reply Bert. That's impressive, given that a solo guitar arrangement from the source material is not so obviously laid out.
As far as passing it as a tango, I listened to your arrangement again, and I could well envision it as a dance piece. So, I would say: Sure, why not!

Thanks for sharing and again, well done!
