In this livestream, we will listen and compare these arrangements with the actual recordings of the French songs and discuss musical and technical challenges involved in playing two specific ones.

Watched the replay - loved it! I haven't been exposed to much French music, so this was lovely and sent me down a rabbit hole.

James Steadman check also Francis Kleynjans or if you want more easy approach Thierry Tisserand, I love the way french guitarrists arrange or compose- its really "charmant"
