David thank you for the gift of this arrangement. I was inspired to learn classical guitar after hearing this nearly 30 years ago now.

Thank you ever so much David!! 22 years ago today I watched my beautiful bride march to this beautiful rendition, we played our Winter Solstice album. We tried to find a guitarist to play for us but no one would attempt it. We thought for years that it was 2 guitars and when we found your video were were awestruck that you performed this solo.... words cannot express our gratitude for the joy this recording has brought us over the years..... Bless you!

The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul.

Vielen Dank für Dein Mitgefühl.

Ja natürlich, er lebt und wird immer leben in uns. Er hat einen wichtigen und geehrten Platz in unserer Familie.

David, I'd like to order the sheet music for this but I'm having some trouble with the website since I'm in the States. When I go to the cart it's all in Dutch (I think!). Can you help me? I'm also interested in the arm support. Brad You can contact me through my website, MercyMusic (dot) Org.

I bought Winter's Solstice many years ago and this was definitely one of my favorites. One of the few songs that make me wish I had actually learned to play an instrument

Thank you for bringing this masterpiece of music into the world. It haunted me over twenty years ago when I first heard it on cassette tape in college, and it still brings tears to my eyes every single time I hear it. I am finally able to play a somewhat passable version on the guitar.

THank you again for your soulful music.
