Re: Week 2: A World Full of Sound! @Dale Needles I'm really enjoying all these pieces by Carlevaro. Although I had heard of him, I had never listened to his music before hearing you.

Re: Week 2: A World Full of Sound! @Moyses Lopes It's funny, but I was actually thinking of getting rid of those two notes as well. Like you said, they are not harmonically vital. Furthermore, they are accompaniment, not melody.…
