Very impressive, you have a beautiful voice, its as though the song was written with the intent of you singing. What tuning is the violin? Thanks

Close harmony singing with a violin, all by the same person !!

Very good !

Just wanted to say this is the best version I've heard. I'm not positive that there is one solely correct interpretation of this song, but I really believe it's a song made by our ancestors to tell us they traveled over here because they loved us so much. That they wanted to make sure we had a better life, and had to endure many hardships because of a very true and genuine love for us. When I hear this played I choke up thinking about what my family and ancestors did to get me here.
