Filmed yesterday, one hour after learning the song - a work in progress. No time to change my shirt. Shot with the iPad built-in camera and microphone complete with inadequate lighting!.

From the 1937 movie of the same name. A beautiful waltz. Words & Music by Oscar Hammerstein II & Ben Oakland.

Talsma tenor ukulele.

Thanks all.

Since the video was shot I've refined and smoothed out my arrangement and performance. Maybe I'll re-shoot it again sometime this fall. This time with a nicer shirt, better camera, microphone and background.
