Hi all!

Does anyone have a midi file of Petite Fleur from Acker Bilk? I believe it starts with a Tango and changes into a rhumba type beat.

Everywhere I search seems to bring up the Sidney Bechet version..

Thanks!
Nick

Nick, I would think you could easily do this with three registrations on your S-970. Yes, it does begin with Tango then seems to go into some sort or Rumba and eventually into a light swing style before returning to a Tango, yet maintains the same tempo throughout.

Good luck,

Gary

Nick set up your G70 or BK9 with a custom style that will change from tango to rhumba with a variation change or select two styles a tango and rhumba, with tempo lock on.. You can capture the tracks as a midi file with either keyboard.. You can also add a melody track via the 16 track sequencer..

Here is the score with chord changes..

Isn‘t the swing part missing in that score? I also think that part is rather a slow dixieland with banjo.

What ever this is I'd love to hear
the finished product...

All the best

OK. no dixie in that version. But the third part is missing in your score, it starts with chord G7.
EDIT: yes, sort of dixie in Gary‘s version...

Nick the only sequence I found is not Acker... but maybe you can add to it.

Sheet music including the swing part:

Nick I used my EA7 and the SMF I posted.

I wrote three pads , a tango pattern , swing pattern, and a rhumba pattern.

I muted the drums in the SMF, and used the pads as my drums..

It works really well.. Maybe you can do something similar with your Yamaha (pads are needed).
