Berceuse in B Major - Banjo Arrangement
Channel: Johnpaul Humphrey
Date: 18/07/2022

This peice was inspired by Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov's Berceuse from his Caucasian Sketches Suite #2 I highly recommend that suite as well as his "turkish fragments" Though everything he did was good. I didn't know this until recently, but he even took some inspiration from Kyrgyz Music (some of my favorite music) writing "Two Kyrgyz Songs" And a lot of inspiration from Georgian Music (another one of the most beautiful traditions)


Anyway, I wrote this berceuse today, but I'm not sure that is proper to say. It was in the air. I might say I discovered it. after 15 minutes of arranging, I recorded and uploaded it. A very underwhelming tale of composition. It would probably be better had I devoted a year of my life to it. Anyway, let me know what y'all think of it.
Enjoy!
