I purchased this arrangement for a student who fell in love with this song. This is beautifully arranged, with just the right amount of challenge for an early intermediate student. My student was able to easily process the structure and format of the arrangement, while enjoying the extra special touches. She was so excited to have this arrangement that she has decided to play this at our upcoming Autumn Recital. Thank you, Chrissy Ricker, for a beautiful arrangement!
