and is of particular interest, featuring firstly the
gardens of Isola Madre, then the fisherman's island and
then on to the fantastic Isola Bella which are all part
of the Borromean Islands on Lake Maggiore. Followed by
the stunning mountains of the Matterhorn, we finally
end up on Lake Como at the Villa Balbianello, which was
used as a backdrop for the Star Wars film, Attack of
the Clones, (the wedding scenes). If you enjoyed this

Sounds nice, but it's too complicated for me. Was looking for something closer to this arrangement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wx_YG2ajo9U (first track)
Firstly, thank you for your hard work, this is a lovely work that is hard to find. I like your fingering and positioning markers quite a lot.
I am wondering, are all the F natural notes (diatonically written) supposed to be there, I don't think they are. I think the key of this work is Eminor which would fix all the F naturals I am reading i.e., m.26 beat 4 quaver soprano voice is F natural yet you have fingered it as 1 finger bar chord indicating it is meant to be F#. Also, m.31 beat 1 last semiquaver, shouldn't that be a D# to give a pure sequence over the rest of that measures phrasing? I'm pretty sure this is what I remember from watching the movie but I could be wrong. Also, since it is a 3 page work anyway and does not facilitate a performance without a page turn, perhaps you could decompress the look of the score by putting it over 4 pages and spreading out the layout a little more by changing the size of the engraving to something smaller and less bulky looking? (depends on what software you are using). There are a few moments where the top of one staff hits the bottom of another (or simply gets too close to facilitate easy reading).
Once again, thank you for the score it is such a delightful work.
