Little arrangement I worked out to a lovely song. Many thanks to TehRazorBack for guidance and encouragement!

This was all you, dude! @Steve Schulteis did most of the heavy lifting for me with his great MuseScore plugin.

When @Samuel Chapman approached me for my help (and not knowing anything about the song he was working on or show it was from), I found myself whistling it for days after. I became enamoured and also wanted to pursue a version, so I double checked it was ok with Samuel first (he approached me for help with the song, I didn't want to take anything away from him).

To ensure I wasn't stepping on Samuel's toes, I approached it in a different key; going a semitone up into Dm/D, instead of C#m/C#. These keys are much easier for harmony with a C/G Anglo, and although not in the original key still sounds fairly similar.

Big thanks again to Sam, whom I never would have known of this song's existence without.

I like both versions, but the second one has a different tonal feel to it, definately.

Title ,"you won't believe how he holds his concertina".. could be easily applied to my own way of holdingv my concertina!😊😊

Well done, both! @TehRazorBack, if you haven't seen the cartoon, I highly recommend checking it out. It's an autumn tradition for me now. You won't find a better Dante adaptation.
