¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
But it's worth the effort, and always a privilege to listen to this beautiful composition over and over again!
The original recording is a piano piece and is strewn with lots of beautiful slash chords.
I think many of the chords below may be interchangeable for others, but I'm hopeful you’ll agree this works as a solo guitar piece!!
From Beth's 2005 'Look' album.
