This easy-to-play arrangement for 3,4 or more guitars contains all the verses, choruses and bridges of the original, in a nice guitar-friendly key. And more importantly it includes all the uplifting key-changes of the original, all now falling neatly into chord shapes familiar to intermediate guitarists.
The bass-line follows the original, and the middle guitar part has a straightforward rhythm that complements and interlocks with the bass-line to give a solid foundation for the tune. Teachers will find the piece full of interesting modulations that make great teaching points.
In a large ensemble, Guitar Two can split between players to suit novice guitarists (Guitar 2b is suitable for near-total-beginners), and separate part-scores are included so that it's easy on the eye.
- I've also produced an arrangement of Uptown Girl for Flute & Guitar
