About this arrangement

Instrumental Duet Guitar,High Voice,Instrumental Duet - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.775439 Composed by Franz Schubert. Arranged by John Pinno. Concert,Contemporary,Romantic Period. Score and parts. 4 pages. John Pinno #3121869. Published by John Pinno (A0.775439). An arrangement of the art song Death and the Maiden by Franz Schubert, for soprano voice and classical guitar, or any other voice range that fits this song.   The song presents the grim visage of Death visiting a girl much too young to be dying, who is understandably horrified and afraid and appeals to Death to pass her by. Death however offers a consoling voice, saying he is not come to chasten but offers rest in his "fond arms". A beautiful but somber song and I feel the classical guitar accompaniment, especially with its low D tuning for the sixth string, adds a special touch of poignancy.For any questions or comments email John Pinno at [email protected].  Please also check out some of my other arrangements on Sheet Music Plus for classical guitar solo, and also duos for guitar with flute or voice : https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/publishers/john-pinno-sheet-music/3002745   This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
