Top Tunes For Guitar
The fifty tunes in this book have been arranged in progressive order, ranging in difficulty from pre Grade 1 to Grade 3. Although the melody line may be played alone, chord symbols are provided to enable guitarists to improvise their own accompaniment. Alternatively, these accompanying chiords may be used by a keyboard or piano player. Top Tunes is a popular series of 50 favourite melodies, all in easy-to-play arrangements that the beginner will soon feel at home with. A glance at the titles in every book will show the broad range of classical favourites, folk songs, children's songs and show songs.ContentsEach book has 50 tunes including some or all of the following:All people that on earth do dwellAu clair de la Lune CapriceCockles and musselsComing through the ryeCradle songDance of the hoursDance of the sugar-plum fairyEine kleine NachtmusikFor he's a jolly good fellowGoodnight, ladiesHere we go round the mulberry bushHome on the rangeHumoreskeI do like to be beside the seasideIl est néLand of hope and gloryLilliburleroMarch from The NutcrackerMarche MilitaireMen of HarlechMichael, row the boat ashoreMinuet in G (Bach)Minuet in G (Beethoven)My old man said follow the vanOde to joyPizzicato polkaRadetzky marchSailors' hornpipeSee, the conquering heroSellinger's roundSheep may safely grazeSpring from FourSeasonsSt Anthony choraleSweet and lowThe can-canThe drunken sailorThe harmonious blacksmithThe lass of Richmond HillThe man who broke the bank at Monte CarloThe MarseillaiseThe troutThe Vicar of BrayTheme from Symphony No 1 (Brahms)This old manWaltz (Brahms)Waltz from The Merry WidowWhen the saints go marching inWilliam Tell OvertureYe banks and braes
