    I love the way this arrangement is simple in its complexity. That's the best way I can think to describe it. Yes, the harmonies are more complex than they are in any arrangements I've come across before. Yes, there's additional rhythmic texture added. But still, a sense of simplicity shines through, which I suspect has largely to do with your playing-- specifically your ability to bring out the melody and balance all the elements.
    In summary: beautiful, and I look forward to listening to it many more times!

    • @LukeFaulkner
      @LukeFaulkner  10 месяцев назад

      Thank you so much, dear Abigail! I think I've played this piece for 25 years now (it was one of the first pieces I ever learned) so it may have gained a few layers/additions over this time, haha.

    Dear Luke, I'm afraid I've had a temporal glitch in my simulated universe, 😂 Caught a bad cold that is rapidly morphing into a boring bigger than Ben Hur production. So I won't be able to wake myself at 2am for your premiere. However I've done the next best thing. I found your audio recording and listened to it. Luke, it's beautiful as with everything that you do. Love the melody and its child like quality. It's brimming with nostalgia. Also came across the original lyrics (I think) , "Dawn yonder green valley, where streamlets meander..." You say it all and so much more in your version. Have a great premiere and online chat with everyone else! Warmest Wishes, Ros 🤒🌡😘

    This is one of my favorite songs. I love it so much. I used to sing a song with this tune in my aunt Debbie's church. It got stuck in my head, so I hummed it in school. My teacher asked me why I was humming Ash Grove. I told her that I was singing a song with that tune in church and she said, "Ash Grove is my favorite song."
