Sonatina for mandolin and keyboard by Ludwig Van Beethoven, arranged for guitar by Chris Newman

This is loosely based on a sonatina in C major for mandolin and keyboard by Ludwig Van Beethoven. This solo guitar version (played on a Collings OM3C) is in D major - a much more guitar-friendly key!
This was recorded on February 5th, 2025, and I put out a good microphone but forgot to change the sample rate on the computer so the audio comes only from my iPhone.
I hope you like it!
