Souvenir of Toronto aka Souvenirs de Toronto aka Torontoi Emlek

I keep coming across various big names playing this, it's a lovely waltz, written quite recently, I think, by Sándor Jàróka 


<edit for a bum note & maybe should be a Bbm6 in bar 13>

Different folk play the moving voice under the static Dm and Gm chords in different ways - any corrections or ideas welcome. -A-

    Sándor Járóka jun., Hungarian violinist and composer, 1954 - 2007.

    "Torontoi Emlek", played by himself:


    @AndyW Thank you for the hint, a beautiful waltz. Didn't know the tune, although there are lots of videos on youtube: Paulus Schäfer, Fapy Lafertin, Feigeli Prisor ...

    cheers Willie, there are also nice versions by e.g. Tim Kliphuis, and here, by some of my Glasgow pals:

    @AndyW Fantastic band, and I love the two singers! Open and free voices, clear but smooth timbre. Give me more!
