Music Sales Easy Classical Guitar Gig Book
Easy Classical Guitar Gig Book. The pieces in the Easy Classical Guitar Gig Book have been culled and arranged as an aid to the working professional and semi-professional guitarist who finds himself in a variety of playing situations, such as weddings, restaurants, and other social gatherings that present live music. Amateur players will also benefit from this eclectic resource of selections-from timeless classics to sacred music-that would be appropriate for these types of events and settings. Students will find a wealth of non-traditional recital and audition pieces that will impress their colleagues and contemporaries. Included are pieces from the Renaissance and Baroque periods that work very well for weddings, in addition to the famous wedding songs by Wagner and Mendelssohn. There are Christmas carols that can be performed as solo pieces or as duets with vocals, and traditional pieces from the standard repertoire that are ideal as background music. The music is presented in standard notation and tablature, with page turns minimized for easy reading. This book is essential for classical guitarists, steel-string fingerpickers, and electric guitar players who wish to round out their repertoire with classical and fingerstyle music. I have included optional flute and voice parts for those pieces commonly played in this combination. By Jerry Willard.
