Sogno d'una vergine

    This is an Italian-American waltz written by Luigi Canoro (the author of Tra Veglia E Sonno) and published in 1920 by Di Bella Music in New York for two mandolins and guitar.

    I have used the original first and second mandolin parts, with a simple tenor guitar backing as the original guitar part is missing. Originally from Sheri Mignano's Dropbox folders, linked here for easy reference:

    Note that this is a different tune from the similarly-named waltz "Un sogno di una vergine" by Di Stefano (which I recorded and uploaded a few years ago).

    Sounds great, Martin. How did you know the chords?

    Thanks, Christian. The handwritten chords on the first mandolin parts were already there in the scan that Sheri uploaded, presumably a performing copy from a 1920s mandolinist.
