Solo Guitar - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.934514 Composed by Johannes Brahms. Arranged by Greg Hays. Romantic Period,Standards. Individual part. 1 pages. Greg Hays #3882911. Published by Greg Hays (A0.934514). This little known Brahms Sarabande, originally for piano, is a great little piece that is at times introspective, while also having short bursts of exuberance. This piece translate beautifully on the classical guitar and can fully utilize the guitar's diverse color pallet. A great concert or background piece!Your audience might think they know Brahms, but they will surely be surprised when they hear this piece! .

Guitar - Advanced - Digital Download SKU: ZY.DO-1529 Composed by Dusan Bogdanovic. Score. 8 pages. Les Editions Doberman-Yppan (digital) #DO 1529. Published by Les Editions Doberman-Yppan (digital) (ZY.DO-1529). Homage to the English guitarist-composer John Duarte, In an English Garden, is a short Neo-Baroque triptych based on a charming harmonic fragment from the second movement of the composer?s well-known work English Suite. The blueprint for the Prelude is in the French Overture style and Sarabande with the accompanying Double is modelled after Bach?s Partita no.1 in B minor. The quote Sitting in an English garden, waiting for the sun, is from one of my favorite songs by John Lennon, I Am The Walrus.Hommage au guitariste-compositeur anglais John Duarte, In an English Garden est un court triptyque néo-baroque basé sur un charmant fragment harmonique du deuxième mouvement de l??uvre bien connue du compositeur English Suite. Le plan du Prélude est dans le style de l?Ouverture française et la Sarabande accompagnée du Double est calquée sur la Partita n°1 en si mineur de Bach. La citation « Assis dans un jardin anglais, attendant le soleil » est tirée d?une de mes chansons préférées de John Lennon, I Am The Walrus.

Solo Guitar - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1453811 Composed by Jan Antonin de Logy (1650-1721). Arranged by Socrates Arvanitakis. Baroque. Individual part. 34 pages. Socrates Arvanitakis #1033060. Published by Socrates Arvanitakis (A0.1453811). Jan Antonin de Logy, count of Rosinthal (1650-1721) was an aristocrat of Bohemia and official of the Austrian empire. As a musician he was a lute player of professional level and seems to have been a refined and prolific composer of single pieces and suites in the French style for his instrument. His compositions are becoming known to us today through important academic research but a lot more work has to be made in this field. The present suite in Em has the following eight movements:1 Allemande2 Courante3 Sarabande La Favorita4 Double5 Gavotte I6 Gavotte II & (Gavotte I da capo)7 Menuett8 GigueNone of these dance movements is too difficult to play, but they are all musically rewarding and the compositional standard is kept high in all of them maintaining a two-part contrapuntal writing throughout the suite.In these editions I prefer not to add any fingerings because I consider that they obscure the optical result rather than clarifying any particular way of playing the music. Especially if tablatures are provided as is the case with this volume the suggested left hand fingerings become quite clear, but Instrumentalists can disregard these suggestions and provide their own fingering and choice of positions.Interactive thematic index has been provided for easy navigation to individual movements either in decorated or in tablature pages and back to the index.If a printed copy is desired, blank pages have been provided for insertion at will and for correct order of left and right side pages.MP3 of the music has been created using the Note Performer playback engine.

Solo Guitar - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.914747 Composed by Benjamin Godard (1849-1895). Arranged by Eric J Roth. Romantic Period. Individual part. 14 pages. Eric J Roth #5867073. Published by Eric J Roth (A0.914747). Benjamin Godard (1849-1895) was a French violinist and composer of Jewish heritage. He wrote hundreds of works, including symphonies, operas, concertos, chamber and solo pieces, and songs. Today he is most remembered for his five symphonies and the Berceuse from his opera, Jocelyn. In style, Godard's music is reminiscent of the early Romantic period rather than the more grandiose style of Wagner. Godard wrote two sonatas for solo violin. The first dates from the 1870s. The second was composed in the 1890s and published after his death. Both sonatas contain four movements and employ baroque dance forms. The Deuxiéme (second) Sonata, arranged here for guitar solo, opens with a Sarabande in A minor, marked molto moderato e pompasamente (very moderately and pompously). The following Rigodon in C major is quick and convivial, although a contrasting section in C minor tempers the mood. The third movement, Adagio non ma troppo, begins in a tranquil F major. The texture soon thickens and makes striking use of the instrument’s lower register. A sudden modulation to F minor provides the sonata's most introspective moment. The piece returns to A minor and ends in a dramatic cliffhanger on the dominant. The rhythmic Bourrée serves as a true finale and includes a frenetic contrapuntal section recalling the violin sonatas of J. S. Bach.

Arranged by Valery Dzyabenko. Baroque,Country,Instructional,World. Individual part. 86 pages. Valery Dzyabenko #5354397. Published by Valery Dzyabenko (A0.978129). The collection of polyphonic pieces for classical guitar is intended for students of children's music schools. The complexity of the pieces is designed so that you can start learning polyphony even from 1st grade, and then up to 5th or 7th. Here you will find guitar arrangements of music by European composers of the 17th and 18th centuries. The collection contains many works that are not found in other publications. For example, the famous JS Bach's aria from Suite No. 3. The arrangement is performed in a comfortable key in C major, in good harmony with the transmission of almost all voices of this masterpiece of Bach. Or the famous Sarabande from JS Bach's suite. In other publications, it is presented in the key of B minor. In this edition, the Sarabande has been converted to the key minor. Sarabande became available to children. The collection also includes guitar arrangements by composers Mozart, Krieger, Türk, Rameau, Telemann, Aguado, Wiese, Corelli, Vitgauer, Hurlebusch and others.

Solo Guitar - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.914743 Composed by Eric J Roth. 20th Century,Contemporary. Individual part. 7 pages. Eric J Roth #5296287. Published by Eric J Roth (A0.914743). This Gigue is the finale of a four-movement sonata composed in 2018. Publication of the entire sonata is forthcoming. In the interim, I am offering three movements – the Passacaglia, Sarabande and Gigue – as single standalone works. I have performed them in my own concert programs both as part of the larger sonata and on their own. I believe that they work equally well both ways. The Gigue form is a lively dance in triple meter that stems from the Irish jig. It probably originated in England and Ireland in the 16th century. In the Baroque period and beyond, composers have often used gigues as the final movement of dance suites. The Gigue offered here is a galloping romp in 6/8 time with eighth notes running throughout most of the piece. It recalls similar gigues by the lutenist Sylvius Leopold Weiss (1687-1750) and the Tarantelle by Johann Kaspar Mertz (1806-1856). (The Tarantella is a similar lively dance form in triple time). Like the Passacaglia, the Gigue uses an E harmonic minor scale with an added (structural) B flat that helps to blur the sense of strict tonality. The second section includes hints of G and B tonal areas before returning to E minor to end the piece.
