Great song! And the modulations were just right.

wow! Pretty darned good for a northern boy. Loved the style and the way you progressed through the variations. The vocals were spot on, and the mods really added to it a lot. If I tried to hit those higher notes I would have really hurt myself. wink

All the best,

Gary cool

If they did not modulate Mack the Knife the song would lose a lot.

The way I view modulation:
1-Start with a key that is a bit below my comfortable range.
2-The band is playing simple, very little happening.
3-With each modulation I get closer to the range my voice sounds best.
4-With each modulation the band becomes more exciting.

The finale product reaches a high point of excitement.

IMHO, John C.

Nice job Tony.... Thanx for sharing your work. I mod as much as I can also in my arrangements.

Tony, I could not open the song. After reading the other posts I realized that you were singing the song.

I thought it was just a discussion on modulation.

Sorry, John C.

not a problem John... What kind of PC or laptop are you using? It should open fine in Windows...

John, when I clicked on it, it downloaded, and I played it from my computer.

Tony I got it to open. Everything I was trying to say you did with a touch of class.

Great job, John C.
