Beautiful, relaxed arrangement of this classic. Nice RH stretch to deliver the last chord! And the tone, very woody and rich, is perfect for this. Well done, Greg.

I just stumbled across this - must have missed it somehow when you originally posted it. This is a really nice arrangement Greg & great performance!

[@gregplaysthestick]

+Jeff Luebke Thanks, Jeff, Hope you're doing well!

[@cyraandrade7416]

Seja qual for o intsrumento musical, ela é linda esta música e assume nuanças maravilhosas.

[@gregplaysthestick]

+Cyra Andrade Thank you so much!

[@Robstafarian]

The blues feel suits the song quite well. I have always thought that it should sung as blues, since such a celebration is the result of tribulation. You might say that it is the halfway point between blues and gospel, in a continuum which begins with soul. Come to think of it, that does as much justice to the subjects of those words as it does to the musical genres they designate.

[@gregplaysthestick]

Thanks, Rob. I liked the way it opened up the harmony as well. Happy (future) Tapping!

[@Robstafarian]

Happy Tapping?! Argh! Reality intrudes! I am aware of the StickWait!

[@andrewjeffries8721]

This is my favorite song and you did a fine job, Greg! What an excellent idea to play it at your aunt's funeral. I'll be watching more of your vids as I consider buying a Railboard. Question: Where did you get the lap-brace so that you can play the Stick sitting down?? - Peace!

[@TheDemonofDeath5]

This is absolutely beautiful. What kind of chapman stick are you using?

[@jtbjtb6081]

CAN ANYONE AT ALL PLEASE TELL ME HOW I CAN BUY AMAZING GRACE BY GREG HOWARD....PLEASE????

[@eliotmccann2589]

Lovely arrangement, Greg. What tuning do you use for this?

[@gregplaysthestick]

Thanks Eliot!. This is in Baritone Melody, but as you can see, I have to get up pretty high on the board, thoughI find that very easy to accomplish the way the Stick is designed. Cheers!

[@usagispoon9455]

Amazing playing! And I thought tapping bass was hard. Where do I get one of those?

[@gregplaysthestick]

Usagi Spoon Thanks. Check out stick.com

[@JesusisJesus]

Did you get one??? I can confirm that The Stick is damn difficult, There is this whole left brain / right brain thing going on when you play and its like playing 2 guitars at once. Hence why you hear many seemingly Odd compositions played on it. It lends it'self to a kind of obscure or distorted perception on standard music, You begin to see shapes rather than chords. I own #5805.

[@TheCereal16killer]

Hey Greg, what tuning did you use for this recording? Just curious.

[@gregplaysthestick]

Baritone Melody!

[@smaklilu90]

is it hard to learn this if you are an intermediate guitar and piano player??

[@alihijazi4451]

What's the name of that amazing instrument? :D

[@alihijazi4451]

Oh, it's a Chapman Stick. Anyway, thanks for the great music!
