By Frederic Chopin. By Frédéric Chopin, Frédéric Chopin. Arranged by Brian Streckfus. This edition: audio, pdf. 19th Century, Contemporary, Instructional, Romantic Period. Guitar Tab. 2 pages. Brian Streckfus #781456. Published by Brian Streckfus (A0.1181680).
Disclaimer: This is a two page excerpt with mostly only the beginning and end of the original piece. The middle section is going to be difficult, if not impossible on guitar so I left it out. Some may see this as more of an homage to Chopin rather than a historically accurate version. That being said, both this arrangement and the original are incredible pieces of music, and it may be my favorite piece of all time. I wanted a version that would lead to a guitarist effortlessly playing Chopin as if it was meant for guitar, not struggle in a key with 3 flats. If maintaining the original key matters a lot to you, a capo on fret 3 could work. Pages: 2 Key: A minor transposed to C minor. 1. Arranged for guitar. 2. Guitar Tablature added. 3. Key changed 4. Notes removed and and inverted chords changed to be idiomatic for guitar. 5. Slurs added. 6. Chord nomenclature added. 7. Piano pedal and phrase markings are a bit unnecessary for a guitarist so they are not included. Slurs and ties are more important for a guitarist, so I don't want a ton of swoops symbols obscuring slurs and ties.
As with the other Chopin arrangement I made, I want super romantic music while making sure it isn't super difficult to play. If I wanted a super hard version, I would just find the public domain version and read treble and bass clef in a difficult key for free. There could also be a lot more mantaining of historical accuracy if this was arranged for a 7 or 8 string guitar. Having a low E and Eb would really changed the trajectory of the arrangement.
Tips: 1. A Bb chord in the key of a minor is an example of a Neopolitan chord, named after a city in Italy. This is one main essence of Chopin, and constantly using them allows him to really toy around with the key and suspense.
To Do: 1. Measure 10 is glitched out. Sorry. It is correct in a way but it is strangely spaced. It is a challenge because at times it looks like measures have the incorrect amount of beats, but I think Chopin's freedom of rhythm is the reason why, and bizarre triplets and quintuplets are being forced into the measure. 2. Combination version without tab? 3. The full piece? 4. Add rhythm to tab?
