TheSound of Silence isPaul Simon?s masterpiece. Released in 1965, Simon had written the track duringthe two previous years. It was well worth the wait.

Itis an obvious choice as a piece of repertoire to arrange for the intermediateguitarist, yet I have found that many arrangements include real technicaldifficulties for the learner. This is often because of the choice of key. Ifset in A minor, an F barre chord is encountered. Similarly, in D minor, a Bflat barre chord crops up. After much trial and error, I have created a versionin F sharp minor which is playable for younger and less experienced hands,without, I believe, losing any musical effect.



Ihave tried to make this arrangement flexible. Therefore, it is set in 2sections. A grade 1-2 guitarist can play just the first half, twice for acomplete performance. The second half has a thicker texture, with a ?flatpicking? technique applied to the thumb. Here, the thumb plays the lower notes onall four beats of the bar.



This downloadprovides one version with only notes, and a second in notes and TAB (in this singledownload). I am aware that many teachers dislike TAB, so you are given the choice.

Professionalplayers looking for light repertoire ? perhaps for restaurant or wedding work ?can fill out the parts spontaneously. The chord sequence is obvious to those withmore experience.

Personally speaking, I sometimes play the arrangement with a capo at fret 3 or 4 to vary the timbres heard in a concert programme.

I hope very muchthat you enjoy playing this version of The Sound of Silence. To see andhear my arrangements for learners, professionals, and ensembles, please visit www.danjonesguitarist.com.I have also written a memoir of working as a guitarist in rural France. Pleasesee www.danjonesauthor.com.

I will upload a YouTube video and lesson before the end of February 2021.

This Intermediate level arrangement provides ukulele tab, chords and notes as well as the lyrics for the song. It is written in a chord melody style so that a solo ukulele player can play the song's melody with an enhanced arrangement to provide more complexity and variety in playing this song. It is hoped that the player can connect their playing to the lyrics for a more meaningful musical expression of this beautiful song written by Don McLean. The chords and lyrics are also included if a solo ukulele player also wants to strum and sing this arrangement. Pop, rock, folk. 4 pages. This arrangement is dedicated to the memory of Vincent van Gogh and his awe- inspiring works of art.

This is another beautiful modern worship song which I hope I have done justice to in this guitar arrangement of majesty. It sits well under the fingers with a few stretches which are less severe due to the use of the capo.


This would sit nicely in amongst any repertoire as a nice, soft, thoughtful piece.
