    This was the last song I learned and performed before I was no longer able to play. I love listening to it even ten years later and remembering the mustle memory attributed to this song. Thank you for posting this so much.

      Yes- the tempo and expression are great. Many performances are very fast and feel a bit frantic.

    I have to play this now.... on the double bass.... It's hard, really, really hard. (But I still love it) Thanks for this video, now I know how it should sound.

    • @RachelXu
