Violin for me, please. I was grade 8 but now prob grade 5ish. I can read and count but I'm probably not very intonated beyond 3rd position. (Actually maybe that is grade 3...!).

It's written in D flat major but if anyone would prefer it in C or D it's very easy to transpose the score, and then 'pitch shift' the resulting recording. Only four chords required I think (C major, E minor, F major and G major).

Not sure about other instruments, but I find D flat quite a nice key to play in on the piano. It just feels 'right' for the piece - and somehow C or D would be too 'bright'. I suspect that might be more psychology than physics though!

RunnyBunny - thanks for the offer of help with scores. I might take you up on that (depending on how much of a fight Logic puts up about the triplet beats).

Iโ€™d like to have a go please. Bflat Euphonium, Rusty grade 5 but practicing hard. I only read treble clef (as any self-respecting brass bad monkey will attest!! :) ).

Happy to contribute recorder again. Will try trumpet (Bflat) as well but no promises :-)
