<p>Hi Hal, I find this a good source for some of my arrangements, my Finale software will convert most of the midis to a readable score which I can then manipulate before beginning the arrangement....Steve.<br></br> <cite>Hal Allert said:</cite></p>

<p>The best banjo sound I have heard is from Sibelius but who wants to sell their car in order to buy the software. That is why I use the nylon guitar instead of the piano, it sounds like an instrument that is finger-picked and is pleasant to listen to.</p>

<p>I like it! The recording that I listened to online of FVE seemed a bit odd in that he really 'twangs' the bass string when it is struck open. Much louder than the rest of the piece and an odd stand-out. BONG!!!</p>
<p>The ABF has an arrangement of this for banjo but no name for the arranger. It is listed as "Hard" on the difficulty spectrum. No doubt about that!</p>
<p>Well done again, Steve. Thank you!</p>
