Amazing Grace - Yes, I know it's one of those that's "been done to death" many times over already (and practically all better than mine at that!). But, as it says on the page, it's for my niece who recently started learning to play the cello (hence the simplistic arrangement & notation) and this is the only song she knows so far. It's really just for her to follow along, I'm sure you get the idea....and it's a nice fit for the season, so hope you enjoy smile

The core style is the Celtic Waltz, with Even Waltz drums & bass added, plus accordion in parts, other instruments are yours truly. Here are the "fundamentals":

Style is _CTWLZPP.STY

RealTracks in song: 776:Bass, Acoustic, PopWaltz Ev 085
RealTracks in style: 2366:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm CelticWaltz Ev 100
RealTracks in style: 1815:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking CelticSlowWaltz Ev 110
RealTracks in song: 1757:Accordion, Rhythm Pop8ths Ev 085
RealDrums: RealDrums in Song: PopWaltzEven8

Well, thank you kindly for that sentiment. But honestly, considering that she was playing that song pitch perfect after barely a month of lessons (and never even touched a cello prior!), I think it's very much the other way around smile
