La solitude

Here is an arrangement from this prolific guitar/composer of a Telemann work I do not know. I assume it was for keyboard originally but it doesn't make a lot of difference as it sounds very guitaristic and very apt in its new guise. It is set in D minor and set in usually three voices with an occasional chord stretching to four notes. There are elements of fugal writing in some of the parts but the general feel of the piece is of a pleasant melody adorned by melodic chords and a gentle 3/4 swing to its rhythm. It fits very well on the guitar, sounds great, and is only tricky in one or two small places that a little work will put right. It works well as an interlude in a guitar recital, which is a little off the beaten track.
