Default "June" - famous Tchaikovsky piano piece for solo guitar

Hi friends of guitar music,

this is my transcription of the famous and really beautiful piano piece "June" Barcarolle, or also alled "June"
from 'The Seasons', Op.37a No.6, by Pyotr Tchaikovsky. Tchaikovsky hat a contract with an editor of a monthly
music magazine, to write 12 short piano pieces,
one for each month of the year. Thatīs why this piece got itīs name "June".

I first heard this piano piece in a french movie - and the beauty of its seemingly simple melody combined
with complex harmonies got inte my mind at once. I searched the web and found the piano score, but it
took a couple of years to start my own transcription for solo guitar. The piano piece has a special part
in middle - all in contrast to the first part. I almost had finished also this second part, but decided
to conentrate only on the first on because of its special mood.

Hope you like it...

greetings from Germany

Gerhard

PS: I had this thread in "Show and tell" - but I think it better fits here in the classical section.

Hi Don,
thank you very much for this compliment....
If you like jazz-standard arrangements like that one, I did upload a number on my youtube channel and also here in the AGF.

greetings from Germany
Gerhard
