Around the World with 12 Easy Pieces: Violin Just in time for the end of the year, my 'Around the World' project has finally come to a close after completing the transcriptions to violin. Sorry double-basses, I'll transcribe for you in the future if the opportunity arises!

It's been a little over a year now, and after cramming for a few weeks in a row, I finally made time to finalise and release my next album: 7 Days Make the Week. 2023 was quite a very busy year for me. As a result, I felt the days go by laboriously and often found it a miracle that I survived all seven days that made up the week.
