Stille Nacht/Silent Night in Dur & Moll/in a major and minor key + more -- autoharp instrumental

In December 2020 Chilly Gonzales -- en.wikipedia.o... -- released a new CD, A Very Chilly Christmas, with mostly standard Christmas tunes in non-standard, minor key arrangements. This inspired me to try a “Corona version” of Silent Night played in the key of A major and A minor: I play it first in A in the lower octave, then there in Am, then in Am in the upper octave and finally there in A again (in order not to end in a “minor mood”). My minor key arrangement is a mixture of natural and harmonic minor mode.
And since the new year has already begun I followed up with Auld Lang Syne. Its standard tune is traditionally pentatonic (as is e.g. also the tune to Amazing Grace). Their pentatonic scale is made of degrees (or steps) 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 of the standard major scale. Generally, melody playing of such pentatonic tunes on the autoharp is possible using only the I and the ii chord, i.e. in Pseudo-Dorian mode; in the key of D, playing Pseudo-Dorian means using the D and the Em chord as I did here.
In order to contrast the Pseudo-Dorian with the proper Dorian mode I then played the most well-known Dorian tune, What Shall We Do With A Drunken Sailor, in the key of E Dorian. Since this tune uses all steps of its scale, more than just 2 chords are needed for melody playing.
Recording the video, I tried to clearly show what chords I’m pressing. The chord buttons layout can be viewed at ziggyharpdust.n...
I must ask for your lenience, and doubly so: First, with all the recent Zoom sessions and online live concerts I simply haven’t found time to make a recording without mistakes. And, secondly, I feel somehow guilty adding to the hundreds of recent Silent Night and Auld Lang Syne recordings; at least mine are different. (However, already with my Silent Night video of 24 Dec 2011 -- • Silent Night / Stille ... -- I had to admit that I "filled a much needed gap"!)
