Johannes Brahms - Hungarian Dance

File info:

#


Fellow Guitarists,

Here's my first TAB draft for Brahms' "Hungarian Dance No.5 in F# Minor".  This is a
standard you'll quickly recognize from the opening theme. Please let me know
if this works for you and of any editting needed.  Also, if you have any other
classical, traditional, folk or other favorites you'd like to see drop me a note. I'm
always looking for arrangement projects.

Check in at American Primitive Guitar at http://home.sprynet.com/sprynet/leswaia for a
listing of other tunes I've arranged, including some originals.  Also,
contact me about the tape swap if you've got some recordings of your own work to share.

I usually keep up to date on the newsgroup at rec.music.makers.guitar.tablature
if you want to make a public comment on my project there.  Use APG in subject line to
catch fellow afficianadoes eye.

Les at APG
