Diane Shelton can also arrange (create a quartet version) of other music for a fee. If your heart is set on one particular song, we can likely make that happen for you!
If the song has a link, click it to hear a sample of us playing that song. These are low-tech home recordings, not studio recordings, but they can help you choose songs you enjoy.
