Title: April Showers - Second Guitar
Composer: Unknown.
Date: 188_?
Tuning: CGDGBD.
Time sig: 4/4.
Fixes, modifications, comments (M=Measure; p=Place in measure; s=String):
M78p1-3 original was missing the upper beam for this set of notes, turning
it into 4er 8th 8th. Beam has been added here, giving 8th 16th 16th.
M78. I believe "D.S. al $" at the end was meant to say, "D.S. al fine."
See discussion of the notation of the dotted rhythms in the main April
Showers page.
Tablature elements to be added by hand: Slurs.
M24 p4-5s4.
M74 p1-4s1.
Take a moment to fill out the 16th-note beams.
Explanation of symbols:
- = glissando to this note.
H = natural harmonic.
, over a note = some sort of stress or accent or staccato. (I'm never
clear on those things.)
^
| = arpeggiation (does not imply strum here.)
^ over a note (m26) = some sort of stress or accent.
$ = Segno symbol.
cresc = crescendo.
decr = decrescendo.
Leading measures in the original score:
1 3 6 10 14 16 19 21 24 27 30 34 37 40 43 46 50 53 56 59 61 63 67 71 75.
Last measure is 78.
*** Download and edit out all material above and below the tablature.
