About the Arrangements

The Pink Panther
"The Pink Panther" starts in E minor, which, in theory, should make it an easy fit on guitar. However, the characteristic chromatic walkup from C# to E would put the arrangement an octave too high in standard tuning. CGDGAD allows me to not only capture that signature run, but it also provides the open C and the open G bass notes, which are essential for the harmonic structure of the composition. I have attempted to remain true to the elements of the original arrangement, maintaining the essence of the bass part and of Plas Johnson's improvised tenor sax solo. My guide for this work is an image of a group of LA's finest studio musicians performing in tight ensemble under Mr. Mancini's baton; this must have been one breathtaking session! -Laurence Juber

Moon River
Although "Moon River" is in 3/4, I don't emphasize the waltz feel in my arrangement. In myopinion, de.-emphasizing the waltz feel contributes to the dreamlike quality of the tune. Let the melody notes ring out as long as possible (a little bit of subtle vibrato will help the melody stand out). This arrangement should be very easy to play, so savor every note. Good luck. -Ed Gerhard

The Days of Wine and Roses
I enjoyed putting together this solo guitar arrangement of "The Days of Wine and Roses:' It includes the same modulation that is popular among jazz pianists. The great Bill Evans does this same modulation in his rendition. I hope you enjoy the bossa nova rhythmic feel in the introduction. I think it sets the mood for the tune. Thank you, Mr. Mancini, for all the memorable melodies. -David Cullen

PeterGunn
Arranging the "Peter Gunn" theme came down to a matter of synchronizing the famous bass line and melody by way of dozens of one-beat finger mechanisms that occur frequently. Until the very end, the only chord in the "Peter Gunn" theme is E7. The challenge was to take it through a few times in different ways. In the A section, I play one time through with a single-note melody and then one time through with a harmonized melody, all against the recurring bass line. Letter B is a bridge of sorts. The C section is the harmonized melody again. The D section is another bridge I composed myself using a combination of diminished and major chord triad shapes. In the E section, there is a technique that simultaneously uses tremolo and bass line in the right hand: the right-hand fingers move up and down rapidly against the first three strings while the right-hand thumb pounds out that familiar bass melody. This arrangement has been extremely exciting and challenging. Don't call me at home with questions! I can't help you. I'll be in therapy. -Pat Donohue

Two for the Road
Technically, this is a pretty simple and straightforward piece to play. Care and attention should be devoted to the right-hand fretting-sustain each melody and chord voicing for as long as possible to allow for smooth transitions throughout. Also, dynamics will really help to bring out the emotional aspect, so experiment with softer and louder right-hand picking-bearing in mind that the melody needs to be up front at all times, and in certain instances I have even chosen to drag the time for effect. The bass counterpart is critical in its role as harmony, so ensure that you pay as much attention to keeping it nice and smooth against the melody. The run that occurs at bar 47 is played with just downstrokes (with the right-hand thumb), slightly speeding up toward the end and then returning to the slower tempo. All harmonics are natural, played at the 12th fret. -Amrit Sond

About Pink Guitar. As owner of Solid Air Records, I would love to take credit for this collection of arrangements, but like most owners, I am luckier than I am smart. Aaron Stang, our partner in print publishing at Warner Bros. Publications, came up with the concept; I can take credit only for agreeing that it could be fun. Of course, asking a dozen artists to find time to pick out a favorite Mancini tune, work up a creative arrangement, record it, transcribe it, and then record a lesson-all in just a few weeks' time-is asking a lot! Fortunately for me, the artists on our label are all up for such challenges and delivered the goods-as they say in the entertainment biz. At this 10th anniversary of the passing of the legendary composer Henry Mancini and the 40th anniversary of the Pink Panther, there are many products in stores honoring his memory: everything from repackages of older recordings to new and exciting versions of his tunes from jazz ensembles to pop stars. Our collection marks the first time a group of guitarists has tackled his compositions; it's a tribute to the strength of his melodies that even played as solos they retain all of their power, beauty, and playfulness. I won't go into detail about each tune since the artists themselves have done a better job than I could, but I would like to say that 2004 marks our own lOth anniversary. We could think of no better way to start this collection than with Laurence Juber, the artist with whom we launched our label. It was obvious to us that the challenging job of turning "The Pink Panther" theme into a solo guitar arrangement had to go to this Grammy-winning musician-and the results speak for themselves. Finally, my sincere thanks to you for purchasing this collection of arrangements. I hope you'll check out the other CDs, books, and DVDs by these wonderful musicians. They're all extremely talented composers in their own rights. Until we meet again and the case is solved. -James Jensen

In 1978 Paul McCartney asked Laurence to become the lead guitarist for his band Wings. After McCartney folded Wings in 1981, Laurence moved to the U.S., where he concentrated on raising a family while resuming his studio career. He played on such classic '80s TV shows as "Happy Days" and "Family Ties." In 1990 Laurence released his first solo album, Solo Flight, which first showcased his fingerstyle guitar work.

Music of the British Isles consists of a broad spectrum of great music that you won't be able to stop playing!

Here you will find music from a lute manuscript, music of the great Renaissance composers John Dowland and Anthony Holborne, a haunting piece titled Down in Yon Forest, and beautiful pieces by the great harper composer Turlough O Carolan. There are also traditional pieces such as Deever The Dancer and Slane, that have lasted because people could not stop humming them, and even a very early hypnotic hymn titled The Truth Above.

The pieces are carefully fingered to lay well on the fingerboard. You will find in this collection pieces you have never seen transcribed or arranged for guitar, and many of them have variations which extend the enjoyment.

In addition to having the scores from which you can play these pieces, the book also comes with a CD that is intended for both reference and pleasure listening.

MUSIC FROM THE BRITISH ISLES. Raccolta di motivi arie e danze folkloristiche britanniche. Oltre a titoli conosciuti come "scarborought fair" e "greensleeves" troverete altri 50 brani completi, con i quali vi immergerete in un antico tempo. Buona parte delle melodie irlandesi di questa edizione sono state composte da un arpista cieco, vissuto intorno al 1725. Le canzoni e danze inglesi provengono invece dalla grande epoca del liuto inglese, tra il 1600 e il 1700, di cui J.Dowland fu il più alto esponente. Le danze scozzesi hanno un particolare stile e Brahms utilizzò in un suo pezzo per piano, una di queste. Tutti i titoli sono stati reperiti tra le polverose scartoffie di biblioteche abbandonate e sono suddivisi per ceppi etnici; irlandese, inglese, scozzese. CD TAB.
