The instrument has no keys! :-)
But I'm not sure what you mean; what I do is improvisatory; certainly I
could send you an .mp3 for you to use (it would take a while), but I doubt
it would have anything to do with the tune itself. When Azure and I
perform, we sing and play independently of each other -
