Re: [Harp-L] Ashokan Farewell

Robert Bonfiglio, has a version on his Harmonica America album. Beautiful chromatic/diatonic version of this classic. Brings me to tears when I hear it.

I will try it on my chromatics but I believe it just won't have that special sound this piece demands.  YouTube is scarce with harmonica playing this tune.  Does anyone have suggestions on how to master this tune without special tunings.  If special tunings are requires I may go so far as to go that route.  I really love the song.
