I see you have been creative again! I like the repetitive elements creating an atmosphere of meditation. Do play without fingerpicks there? Nice syncopations! I really would like to have the tab of that piece. You can have the tab of my "prelude for banjo" if you like.

Yes, I generally play without fingerpicks. I'm used to using my nails from playing guitar, and I just never bothered to learn to play well with fingerpicks. I also actually like the sound of fingernails. The only problem is that I don't get quite the volume as I would with fingerpicks.
I don't have a tab of this yet, but I hope to do it sometime before the end of the year. I'll definitely send it your way when I have it done.
And yes, i would love to get a copy of your "Prelude". Is that the one with the two violins on your music page?
