Lovely version.

What key are you in?

well done

Thanks for your comment.

I just play by ear and will have to guess that it's in the key of "G" though perhaps not to 440 pitch. Often I just keep the fiddle in tune with itself unless I happen to be playing with ohters and can tune to them "by ear".

it sounds amazing in that tunnel. i kind of like the background traffic noise, adds some realism.

Thanks for your comment. I agree with your opinion about the background sounds. Unedited reality audio can be the most interesting. That jingling sound about 2/3 of the way through was from a dog which the woman was walking. The dog had all kinds of metallic tags and stuff around it's collar.
