Take Three, Take Four

A short piece in a mixture of 3/4 and 4/4. It's about Grade 1 standard.

Lord of the Dance

Bobby Shaftoe

A sheet of easy tunes: Bobby Shaftoe, When The Boat Comes In, Tallis' Canon and Sur le Pont d'Avignon.

Drunken Sailor

A tab version of the famous tune, What Shall We Do With A Drunken Sailor?

A Carol Arrangement

One of my favourite carol tunes. Personent Hodie was first published in 1582, in the Finnish collection of songs, Piae Cantiones, along with Good King Wenceslas and Unto Us a Child is Born (well, those are the words we put to the tunes these days).

This arrangement is a simple one - it's about Trinity Initial Grade level.

Two Little Pieces

Two pieces for classical guitar. I was going to call them studies but that sounds more boring. The first (all about spreading easy chords with the thumb) has a jazz feel, the second is lively and dramatic.

The first is about Grade 2 (Trinity), the second is harder - and harder to define Grade-wise, I think.

Minuet

Another movement arranged from a Haydn Baryton Trio - this time a Minuet. The middle part has been rewritten: it's been made very simple, using only G, A, B and C.

Three Tunes

Elementary, but not as easy as those in the previous post.
