Transcribed & Edited by Rembrandt Gerlach.

Published by Chanterelle.

New arrangement of Bustamante’s classic, which draws heavily on the original piano version.  The Introduction is new, and new harmonies and expanded chords have been introduced throughout the work.  The strumming patterns are also new, and they do bring us closer to the original piano version,  by introducing elements of the indigenous Indian harp.  More variation into the arpeggios has been introduced,  and the often repeated e-f interval is executed here on two different strings.
