Description
Arrangement for 6 guitars and voice of Schubert's Erlkönig
The German poem is by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Other arrangements are available, including versions with 2 guitars and voice.
These "6 guitars and voice" versions are easier to play because the single repeated notes
in each part can be performed using the traditional a-m-i-a-m-i fingering on the right hand
whereas the "2 guitars and voice" versions require rapid repeated chords
The zip file contains score and all separate parts
The sound sample is an electronic preview using clarinet for the vocal part.
