Product Description
This is an uplifting, flowing, finger-style guitar solo, similar in style to a Bach prelude but with hints of modern chords, composed by Bradley Powell and performed on The Candlelight Guitarist album "Sunflower Serenity." A wonderful piece to create as inspirational mood! NOTE: This is written in standard notation. (A version in both standard notation and TAB is available separately), it's for an intermediate level finger-style player; mostly played in open/first position but in a few spots playing up to 9th position (high C#m chord), with some basic classical finger-style abilities (using P-I-M-A). Watch Brad's performance in the YouTube video!
