El Cóndor Pasa (If I Could)

Digital Sheet Music

By Daniel Alomia Robles

Item Number: A0.851164

El Cóndor Pasa is a piece from a zarzuela (a form of Spanish light operetta) by Daniel Alomía Robles. The Peruvian wrote the work in 1913. The work has since been recorded thousands of times, most notably by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel who provided it with new lyrics and a subtitle (If I Could).

This arrangement is designed for teachers and music groups where there is a mixed level of experience amongst the players. The arrangement is adaptable and flexible as certain parts can be omitted as the ensemble sees fit.

The following is included with this download:

All parts are provided in both notes and TAB

Guitar 1 – has much of the melodic interest and some high-position playing

Guitar 1 (alternative) – brings some of the higher position playing down an octave

Guitar 2 – also has melodic interest

Guitar 3 – a more-simple part for less-experienced players

Guitar 4 – arpeggio chords – this part also has chord symbols for those who may wish to strum an improvised accompaniment

Bass – this is an optional part written in bass clef (and bass TAB).
