    That's a really nice arrangement.  I heard some of what we call *segovia rubatos* which are manneristic pauses that aren't endemic to the piece.  I'd tighten up the rhythm in places.  Over all though it's really great.

    That cowbell needs to be a dB or two louder Mark. .

    Nice job on this though, sound well here.

    I copied a guy playing it on youtube.  I had to simplify parts because I don't classically pick well.  I did the arpeggios at the "bridge" with a pick sweep, whilst his was proper finger plucking.

    Mark! How nice to see (and hear) you. Great choice and a pretty arrangement, really like the section from 1:20-ish.

    James, great to see you.  Merry xmas my friend.  I saw a guy on youtube play it and the middle section is what got me to want to try it.
