I first saw a version of this being played by Richard G on a Facebook Group and instantly thought I would like to learn that. When I saw it came from Active Melody I looked it up.
I found it very difficult to keep the base line going using a plectrum for some reason so I changed to using my fingers and found that much better using the thumb on the base. ( Since then I have found I can play with a plectrum once I got the rhythm sorted however, this recording is without a plectrum )This composition is driving me mad though as when I just think I have it done I forget where I am with the response. ( something Brian eluded to ) So this recording is the best of the ones where I have managed to complete the whole piece. I am totally unrelaxed with it at the moment because my mind is racing ahead thinking of what comes next and therefore my playing suffers. I think it is one that I maybe should leave for a while and come back to it fresh. I may remember the trills also at some point. lol
Oh, and just to add I really find that base B note to fit in before moving up to the B very awkward .
