If you’re listening to that, I’ll explain what you’re hearing. That is the regional honeybees choir tryouts winners. Coming from windmill hive, they have some of the most talented bee singers around, and the director is none other than the amazingly talented Mr. Shuyeona. I joined them as an instrumental accompanist (each choir group was allowed three instrumentalists).
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it…..
Ok, for real, this is Dr. John Cockman’s arrangement of Ashokan Farewell for three fiddles. I’m playing all three fiddles, and the backing track is from his website: bluegrassdaddy.com
But the story was more interesting wasn’t it?

Gunnar, I used “view source” and copied the URL: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XpfKtdIiecnmu1nx5D0huLuI-eLRI9D_/view?usp=drivesdk and was able to hear your version Sounds great! Love it! Most folks who watched Ken Burns’ “Civil War” had no idea this song was not composed by Jay Ungar until 1982. I think AF is a worldwide favorite of many people. I believe you need it in mp3 format for WordPress though.

Thanks! I had tried to upload it directly as an mp3 and it said they don’t accept that file type for security reasons

That’s strange. I can do it with my WordPress. Might have something to do with where you have it hosted. (?) Sorry for the double post. I wasn’t signed in the first time, and I didn’t see it appear, so I re wrote it.

Actually I just realized why it disallowed it. Media uploads are only available for premium bloggers, which requires you to pay money which I’m not willing to do. I’ll add the link to the file as a link

Gunnar…I used “view source” and saw the URL for your version of AF is https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XpfKtdIiecnmu1nx5D0huLuI-eLRI9D_/view?usp=drivesdk I was able to listen to it that way. Great job! Loved it. I think most people who watched Ken Burns’ “Civil War” have no idea that AF was only composed by Jay Ungar in 1982. I think you need it in mp3 format to be supported in WordPress. You can then upload it to your WP media files and insert it into your post.

I tried a few different hosting platforms and found that soundcloud embeds here, so I’ve got the audio working now
