Five simple pieces in DADGAD tuning. Over the years, DADGAD tuning has become an important part of my guitar playing, as well as my arranging and composing. As a teacher, I have also had a number of people contact me about helping them learn to play in this wonderful tuning. These Etudes, or studies, are a response to having music that is easily accessible to beginners to this tuning, without being too difficult. That being said, these Etudes are not for guitar players in the beginning stages of learning. Rather, they are for guitarists wishing to begin exploring DADGAD tuning. Players should have a basic knowledge of fingerpicking and chord playing, as well as knowledge of reading tablature.



The pieces are as follows:

Cool Water Falls

Deep Red

Lazy jig

Shades of Green

Final Waltz

This is an arrangement for classical guitar in standard tuning. I included percussion effects to enhance the groove and the overall atmosphere of the music. You don�t have to play all the effects but I included a description of how to play them in the appendix. I composed my own solo-part for the guitar in the section where the trumpet plays it�s solo. It is very exciting to play! Enjoy and please let me know If you have any questions. It would be my pleasure to help you out! Here is my E-mail: info@nikymusic.com .

Can I tell you something just between you and me?
When I hear your voice, I know I'm finally free
Every single word is perfect as it can be
And I need you here with me
When you lift me up, I know that I'll never fall
I can speak to you by saying nothing at all
Every single time, I find it harder to breathe
'Cause I need you here with me
Every day
You're saying the words that I want you to say
There's a pain in my heart and it won't go away
Now I know I'm falling in deep
'Cause I need you here with me
Every day
You're saying the words that I want you to say
There's a pain in my heart and it won't go away
Now I know I'm falling in deep
'Cause I need you here with me
I think I see your face in every place that I go
I try to hide it, but I know that it's gonna show
Every single night, I find it harder to sleep
'Cause I need you here with me
Everyday
You're saying the words that I want you to say
There's a pain in my heart and it won't go away
Now I know I'm falling in deep
'Cause I need you here with me
Every day
You're saying the words that I want you to say
There's a pain in my heart and it won't go away
Now I know I'm falling in deep
'Cause I need you here with me
Can I tell you something just between you and me?
When I hear your voice, I know I'm finally free
Every single word is perfect as it can be
'Cause I need you here with me

Carrickfergus - arranged for solo guitar by Dan Jones

Please note I have also arranged this work for mixed ability guitar ensemble, the score of which can be found here:

https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/carrickfergus-for-guitar-ensemble-digital-sheet-music/21189016

This download includes three versions of the score:

The first with notes and TAB below.

The second with notes only.

The third with TAB only.

All three versions will be bought in the single purchase.

Full fingering suggestions (as used by the arranger) are given.

Carrickfergus is a much-loved traditional Irish song which has been recorded many times by contemporary artists, most famously, Joan Baez.

In making this arrangement I am attempting to create a work suitable for the more-advanced or concert player. My intention has been to use the original theme to construct a piece with structure and harmonic depth.

Carrickfergus is presented here in D major with a mid-way modulation to the dominant - A major.

I am excited at the idea of using well-known themes to create a concert repertoire suitable for all environments and which will appeal to guitarists and non-guitarists alike.

A film and recording of me performing the arrangement can be found in the link given on this page or at danjonesguitarist.com.

I hope very much you enjoy playing Carrickfergus.

This well known piece from the movie "Meet Me In St Louis" is beautiful when played on a solo guitar. Its not a demanding arrangement and can be learned quite easily.
The entire CD (I'll Be Home For Christmas) eventually will be available on my website: and#65279;www.burchfieldbrothers.com
Look for many more of these arrangements to come in the near future.

I wrote this arrangement for classical guitar but it also works fine on a steel string guitar. You will have to tune the 6th string down to D and the 5th string down to G. That�s it! Enjoy and please let me know If I can help you out! It would be my pleasure! Here is my E-mail: info@nikymusic.com.
