Chopin - Nocturne - E9th

Post by Roy Thomson »

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once upon a time in my classical library I had a piano solo of the subject work composed by Chopin. The haunting strains of the melody stayed with me over the years and I worked on an arrangement for the E9th tuning " off and on ". Recently I completed tabbing and recording this beautiful song. The chord structure is really nice and perfectly suited for the steel guitar. The link to the tab and the MP3 on Ron Turners site is: http://www.clictab.com/royt/tab48.htm

Outstanding, Roy! Some steelistic license was taken here and there, but altogether it is an awesome performance that captures the Chopin magic in the unique way of the pedal steel. Image Image Image
