I was looking up some public domain versions of Asturias for guitar and accidentally bumped into one arranged for solo viola. I thought to myself "how on earth would that piece work on the viola?!". Then I heard this guy play it... please check it out - a fantastic and passionate performance that breathes a different life into the piece. I really love hearing pieces we know on guitar being re-orchestrated. I made a page with a whole bunch of pieces re-orchestrated that you'll probably be familiar with: https://www.danielnistico.net/re-orchestrated.html Leave a comment and let me know what you think of this version of Asturias :-)

This is definitely a great version. I did not realize that there could be a better version of Asturias out there. I am really fascinated in the internet and what it can show me. I randomly got a hold of this version of yours, and now, I cannot stop admiring it. I seriously hope that you start making other versions of other stuff in the future. You have a lot of talent here, and believe me, you should use it more.
