Richard Yates' Classical Guitar Transcriptions

 

TCHAIKOVSKY, Piotr Ilich (1840-1893)

 

 


June (Barcarolle) by Peter Tchaikovsky. More difficult than the other Tchaikovsky pieces here, but well suited to the guitar. I thought that his book of 12 such pieces, one for each month might make a fine guitar collection but, thus far, I have found none of the others that work well enough.

The following six pieces are all from Peter Tchaikovsky's Music for Children, Op. 39. They are sparkling miniatures that are relatively easy to play, even on the guitar.

The Sick Doll by Peter Tchaikovsky. Originally for piano, on the guitar this piece is an excellent and relatively easy study for left hand placement and higher positions. MIDI sound file of The Sick Doll. [1 page, 47KB]

The Doll's Burial by Peter Tchaikovsky. Sorry, but the doll could not be saved. Check back later for a happy ending. MIDI sound file of The Doll's Burial. [1 page, 47KB]

The New Doll by Peter Tchaikovsky. On the guitar this is a good study for practicing articulations. Play all of the accompaniment staccato and quieter than the melody. MIDI sound file of The New Doll. [1 page, 55KB]
