Product Description
This is an original guitar solo by Bradley Powell, aka The Candlelight Guitarist, inspired by a William Shakepeare poem (from "Love's Labour's Lost"). It is from The Candlelight Guitarist album "Winter - Music Inspired by Poetry" (2025). This sheet music is written in Standard notation PLUS TAB, in the key of D major (optionally to be capoed at the 3rd fret then sounding in the key of F major--like the recording and video). It is an intermediate level classical guitar piece, with bass line counterpoint, natural harmonics, with a Renaissance flavor (with some subtley bluesy figures mixed in), making a lively and fun solo. See and hear Brad plays the piece in the YouTube video!
