Description
Dedicated to five little girls that will never fall in love with the boy of their dreams in this life . . . . .
This by no means is a simple update. I felt I really, really wanted to add richness to this tune. To be honest there are certain things thatI just can't get from my other tunes when i play certain classics. There are certain spots in this tune that have a celestial feeling that I can't get from folk fingerpicking. Really hope you can pick up some of those special feelings in this tune. I really love working and playing on tunes like this.
Frederic Chopin Op.9. No.1 (Variations by me)
1810-1849
I hope you like the picture I searched and searched trying to find one that fits as best I can imagine to go along with the music. I made the picture more of a setting for the word "nocturne" when upon looking in the dictionary means "night painting". I've known that for a while but I wanted to find more meanings as well, just for curiosity sake.
I tried to make the picture a little more with a painting feel by adding some texture to it. I really tried to structure in some chords with a little more of a night flair, plus a tad of reverb for that more romantic effect.
* This is an earlier version I uploaded to Macjams.com but this one has backround orchestration to it. Plus I added more reverberation and made the guitar bid more bassy for depth purposes..

This is a beautiful tribute Bill. The strings add a further element of
pathos to an already wonderful piece - you sure are getting good at
this (the orchestral arrangements I mean). The story is one of the
saddest I've heard in a very long while. Thanks for posting this Bill -
words would be so hard to write abour such a situation, but your
playing says it all - had me in tears.
