Waltz of the Fairies

by Schmitt

arranged by for solo guitar by Al Lewis



I wrote this arrangement with the following technique :

1. I started with a piano version of this piece, written by somebody other than myself. The simplicity of the root motion meant it was not necessary to analyse the piece thoroughly.

2. I simply followed noted in the piano arrangement and applied them to the guitar. At times it was necessary to raise/lower a note/phrase an octave to fit with fingerings on the like.

3. I added a 2-bar intro which is entirely of my own invention.

4. I added dynamic markings using the original as a guide, but adapting them to the suitability of the guitar.
