Instrumental arrangement of Schubert's famous song about the trout.As opposed to earlier simpler guitar arrangements available online, this version follows the piano part including the chromatic scales and the high notes (going up to the 17th fret) as the fish leaps up high, but I have simplified the harmony in a few places to make it playable for a high-average or advanced guitarist.The pdf file contains score and partsThe sound sample is an instrumental electronic preview(Words - with my translation for information)In einem Bächlein helle, da schoß in froher EilDie launische Forelle vorüber wie ein Pfeil. In a bright little brook the capricious trout shot by in joyful haste like an arrowIch stand an dem Gestade und sah in süßer RuhDes muntern Fischleins Bade im klaren Bächlein zu. I stood on the bank and calmly watched the lively little fish bathing in the clear watersEin Fischer mit der Rute wohl an dem Ufer stand,Und sah`s mit kaltem Blute, wie sich das Fischlein wand. An angler with his rod stood there on the bank and looked on coolly as the fish swam about So lang dem Wasser Helle, so dacht ich, nicht gebricht,So fängt er die Forelle mit seiner Angel nicht. As long as the clear water is not disturbed, I thought, He won't catch the trout with his rodDoch endlich ward dem Diebe die Zeit zu lang. Er machtDas Bächlein tückisch trübe, und eh ich es gedacht, But finally the thief grew weary of waiting In his treachery he muddied the water, and before I knew itSo zuckte seine Rute, das Fischlein zappelt dran,Und ich mit regem Blute sah die Betrogene an. His rod gave a twitch, the little fish was wriggling on the hook And my blood stirred as I looked on at the cheated victimpoem by:Christian Friedrich Daniel Schubart   (1739-1791) This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
