    Very nice version of a Sicilian song I hear for the first time.
    Did you find the sheet music here:https://www.harmonicahoek.nl/muziek/..._maritau_rosa/ ?
    It's the same tonality you play it in.
    I just printed out the sheet music of this Siciliaans Liefdeslidje.
    Thank you!

    Today, I finally found the time to do a recording of this nice song from Sicily.
    On the guitar, I opted for the easy (sans barré) way. I put a capo on the second fret of my Terzguitar, resulting in AEDGCE tuning and turning the d minor shape into a g minor chord, thus making it possible to avoid barre chords.
    On the mandolin, I tried to reach the same elegance as Hany, but my tremolo just isn't as smooth as his.
    But I'm working on it!
    Thanks for the inspiration, Hany!

    This was very nice, you kept your tempo better than I did.
    To tell the truth. Paul my friend playing the guitar wanted to use the capo, but I did not want to place it on my Alhambra guitar. (he was using my guitar and did not want to use the steel guitar)
