Cloudscape - an incipit snippet

Supplied as Full Score and individual parts

A trio for intermediate Guitarists in which a single melody is first passed between the two players on parts one and two. Later, Guitar 2 enters with a new melody which is also developed. Finally, in the climax of the piece, the two tunes intertwine, sharing similar but interlocking rhythms and harmonies.

Underneath this almost duet-like weaving, Guitar 3 provides an under-the-fingers solid foundation of sustained and moving notes.
