Sorry if I'm rambling to myself here, but I want ot keep this thread alive. . .

I worked up an arrangement of the song (reel, I think?) "Rakes of Kildare" for solo bass over the last couple of weeks, as well as the Air "Ashokan Farewell". Both of them were dug up from a book John Kennedy published for his string students - I've yet to do any transcribing or research into other stuff. IMO, this stuff is really well suited for solo bass - I hope to make some ensemble arrangements, too.

I would love to hear from anyone who does this kind of thing.
